Vacation Rental Description
La Grue is a charming 19th century farmhouse with original beams and exposed stone work, beautifully renovated into a 3-bedroomed luxury self-contained Gîte. A private entrance with parking leads to your own front door and behind the gite there is a secluded garden and terrace, overlooking a wooded valley and in the distance Rochechouart. The views over the surrounding countryside from the back of the gite are fabulous all seasons of the year, with the rolling hills, fields, and woodland.  
 
We are located in the heart of 'Le Parc Naturel Régional Périgord-Limousin', and are ideally situated to explore the varied and beautiful attractions of the Haute-Vienne, Dordogne and Charente departments. If you enjoy outdoor pursuits then you can fish, swim, cycle or meander around the beautiful lakes in the area. Golf is also available at 3 Golf courses nearby and there are many more attractions situated locally. 
 
We are only 6 km from the pretty market town of St Mathieu, which provides full amenities including a petrol station, banks and a supermarket and the market town of Rochechouart is also close by which has a beautiful chateau and several bars, restaurants and shops.
