 Chabanne in the Limousin.

Le “Gîte de Chabanne” is open all year round since 2009. It is an ideal place to stay with family and friends to have a good time with large groups, in a comfortable house, with plenty of room where each can enjoy the various “on site facilities” and equipment or discover the wonder offered in the area.  The « gîte » was designed as a holiday home for relaxing days in any season of the year and all details are developed to optimize everyone stay, adults and children.  Our objective is to provide a memorable time to our renters, such that they will come back with their family, their friends and will share their experience with all their contacts.

 

Chabanne is located in the Limousin, about 20 Km from Limoges (170.000 inhabitants). The small village has about 10 houses, mainly typical farms from the 18-19th century with the style of the Limousin. It is located along the lake of La Crouzille, in the heart of the beautiful hills of Ambazac (altitude is around 550 M above sea level).

 

All commerces and supermarkets are close by, in Ambazac (7 km). The Gîte is also close from the A20 with both an entry and an exit to the motorway, facilitating all excursions and rapid access to all the activities offered in the region. The magnificent site of the Lac de St Pardoux with its beaches and aquatic center (inside and outside heated pools, with water slides, accrocs-branche (zip line in the trees), and other activities (sail boats pedalos, fishing, water ski) is 6 km away from Chabanne… many hiking trails and tresor hunt walking games, biking trails (including for mountain bikes) or horse trails are directly available from Chabanne … Several beautiful castles  are open for visits in the area (don’t miss Chalusset).
