They are both hunters. I know this is not everyone's cup of tea, but a lot of people from that generation in rural France do like hunting, fishing, fetching mushrooms. There are woodlands all around the karting circuit. My dad and his friend have built some platforms in the trees, and from mid-October to mid-November they go there every morning to shoot migrating birds. Those ones are some sort of wood pigeons going from Eastern Europe / Russia to North Africa. I did my own shooting that morning... with my camera! The sunrise was spectacular with some nice pink colours and mist in the valley.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248634540050801/5c3a512b-33b7-401e-aa75-0ccebc159f86.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Regional Natural Park Périgord Limousin 1 min walk \- 0.0 miles - ![Gare de Limoges which includes heritage architecture, a sunset and a statue or sculpture](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621532503641/579929a3-3567-4463-8beb-2c07c360e6a9.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Gare de Limoges 54 min drive \- 42.1 miles - ![Limoges Cathedral which includes interior views, a church or cathedral and heritage elements](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6110350/3669e1dd-7b89-4d59-845d-99a549376512.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Limoges Cathedral 55 min drive \- 42.2 miles - Circuit du Val de Vienne 56 min drive \- 40.1 miles - Brantôme Abbey 60 min drive \- 43.0 miles ### Getting around - Saillat-sur-Vienne Saillat-Chassenon Station 17 min drive - Limoges (LIG-Limoges Intl.) 47 min drive ### Restaurants - Resto La Cabane 9 min drive - Château De La Redortière 12 min drive - Auberge des Lacs 8 min drive - L'estaminet Du Château 11 min drive - le 16 beach 8 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Freestanding House With Private Garden In The Green Heart Of France pet-friendly? ### How much is parking at Freestanding House With Private Garden In The Green Heart Of France? ### What time is check-in at Freestanding House With Private Garden In The Green Heart Of France? ### What time is check-out at Freestanding House With Private Garden In The Green Heart Of France? ### Where is Freestanding House With Private Garden In The Green Heart Of France located? ## Have a question?

We loved the terrace where we ate every day shaded by a glorious vine. The owners lived next door and were very helpful. Sadly when we were there they were not offering diner. ##### jan s. Stayed 20 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ben V. 9 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The house and garden themselves are a sweet rest. We actually came to this house BY MISTAKE. We had thought we were making a booking far away, and only discovered that we were going here the night before. (Our mistake.) It was a delight - and a relief - therefore to find that the place was really lovely. The lake is nice, a few miles away, and you could spend days there, but apart from that there’s not a great deal nearby. However, the house itself is lovely – the garden is lovely, and the host, Maelissa, was sweet, welcoming and helpful. The garden is big and there are three bedrooms, each with a bathroom. The central area is a nice family area with kitchen, dining table and sofas. There’s a barbecue outside and we ate many meals outside at the large table. Perhaps the highlight for me was THE HAMMOCK. I could - and did - spend hours in it with my book. We made some family videos which we put on Instagram made at the house. Look at @SomeVirgos if interested. ##### Ben V.

It is just like the description and photographs. It's a stone building so was still cool even at 40degrees.. There is also shade outside under the vine. We found it difficult to force ourselves out. The owners also run the guest house next door you must eat there Maelisa's food is amazing. There are no shops in Videix but several good supermarkets a few miles away. There is a good sized freezer which we used for meat and bread to avoid too many shopping trips. On arrival there was a basket of home grown vegetables and salad waiting for us together with a delicious cake and jam. There was only 2 of us so to avoid temptation I sliced it and froze some. The roads in the area are in really good condition and so little traffic. We are hoping to return next year. ##### Kathryn F.

Maelisa and family are so welcoming and helpful and the welcome basket of homegrown produce, cake and wine was a lovely surprise. The Gite is spacious, comfortable and within perfect driving distance of various tourist delights. The star of the stay however has to be LILO the gorgeous family dog who is so friendly. His daily visits just made our stay perfect. I would highly recommend a stay here, we certainly how to return! ##### Joanne B.
