Accommodation

The cottage offers tranquil accommodation and can easily sleep five adults in three bedrooms comprising one double bedded room, one twin bedded room and one single bedded room.

There are two bathrooms each with WC and basin with one having a full bath and the other having a shower.

The large lounge is comfortably furnished with satellite TV and DVD player and there is an impressive inglenook fireplace with log burner for those chilly late summer/autumn evenings.

The kitchen has been equipped in a proper fashion with full double-oven cooker and hob, washing machine, microwave and all the other utensils needed to enjoy an memorable stay.

Dining table and chairs to seat six.

An internet access facility is available at no charge.

Although the three bedrooms sleep five comfortably, it is possible to accommodate an extra person on the very large sofa on the ground floor.

Outside

Outside the cottage there is a large private garden with gravelled dining courtyard area with garden furniture, sun beds and barbecue.

Parking is provided immediately outside the cottage.

During World War II, the village of Oradour-sur-Glane, on the outskirts of Limoges, was destroyed and its people were massacred by the Nazis. The cars are still on the street exactly where they were left, furniture still in place in the houses that survived the fires. Truly a unique memorial and one that genuinely evokes the meaning of one of the awful events of that time.
