Short Term French Property Lets

If you are looking for rural France head to the Limousin with its woodland, green hills, pasture land, rivers & lakes.
Located in central France, Limousin sits on a series of rolling plateaus in the northwestern Massif Central. It is bounded by the regions of Centre, Auvergne, Midi-Pyrénées, Dordogne and Poitou-Charente. The Blond Mountains are located in the southwest, between the Vienne and Gartempe rivers, and rise to more than 1600 feet. The Ambazac Mountains (Monts d'Ambazac), to the east, rise to more than 2300 feet.
Littered with charming villages and hamlets, the Limousin is renowned for its famous red cows and the local economy is based on agriculture. This picturesque region has many springs, rivers and inland lakes particularly in the Creuse department also known as the 'water tower' or 'chateau d'eau' of France.
Canoeing, kayaking, fishing, golf and sailing are popular here as are cycling, motorcross and quad-biking. Limoges is the largest city in the region and owes its name to the enamel and fine china trade.
