 La
Varache is situated in the heart of the Limousin
countryside. This area is often referred to as one of France's
best-kept secrets. The whole region is filled with trails and footpaths
that wind their way through the lush un-spoilt scenery and quiet
country villages that the whole district is renown for.
If you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing
time to unwind from everyday stress then this is the place for you!
Equally, if you are looking for activities
or places to visit then La Varache is an
excellent base from where to explore the surrounding countryside and
attractions.
The accommodation
in the two well equipped and furnished Gites
at La Varache caters for up to 13 people
and is set in 45 acres of pasture and woodland surrounded by
forestry land. The river Vienne runs alongside the property and is
excellent for fishing.
 The local Limoges to Ussell
single-track railway runs through the grounds. During the summer a
steam train will often operate this line. Take a look at the "Steam Train" for a timetable and
schedules.
La Varache was used by the French resistance
during WW2. They blew up the train viaduct in March 1943. Photos and
details are available at the local Resistance Museum.
 On the property you will find a
variety of small farm animals ranging from chickens, geese, ducks and
rabbits which are all free range. We also have American Quarter Horses. La Varache is a great location to stay with your horses, spend the day out riding and come back in the evening to your own gite or as a one night stop over on a longer trek! We can either stable your horses or put them out to grass.
