Guest access The village is no a through road - so the only traffic is your neighbour or the local farmer with his tractor. Ample parking is available next to the house. Vehicles are necessary as we are in the countryside but we are perfectly situated only 5 minutes away from RN145 which takes you to Bellac (our main local town). Limoges is 45 minutes away & Poitiers about 1 hour. The A20 is accessible via RN145. There are plenty of local walks from the village either by the road, the old train track or chemins (pathways) We even have our own village pathway, created by our neighbours so we can all walk down to the local river. Other things to note There is a ramp at the front of the house for wheelchair/pushchair access via the French doors into the snug. The ground floor bedroom has a double bed with space around it for a wheel chair, plus the en suite wet room has plenty of turning space and the toilet is raised for easier use.
