Things To Do:
If you are feeling lively, the area boasts several water sport activities, such as waterskiing on the nearby lakes, rafting, kayaking and canoeing on the rivers Vézère, Vienne and Dordogne as well as on the various lakes, where windsurfing is also a popular choice.
The lake is also ideal for swimming, with the sandy beach only 200m away from the chalets and is perfect for those who prefer to do nothing more strenuous than work on their tan!
Table tennis, volley ball and badminton can be played on the beach, where there is also a children's playground. Lifeguards survey the beach during July and August.
For the mountain bikers amongst you, there are several VTT trails in the vicinity with some ‘Black’ runs to test the most seasoned mountain biker. (The Mountain Bike Championships were hosted here in June 2004). Mountain bikes can be hired locally.
Two local equestrian centres cater for learners and experienced riders alike, both of whom can go trekking on the peaceful woodland trails.
The tranquil Corrèze is a walker’s paradise and Treignac is situated on the GR440 and G46, major official walking routes of France, so you will be able to explore to your heart’s content the unspoilt, rolling hills and forests of the Corrèze.
There are four golf courses within an hour's drive of Treignac, two of which have 18 holes and two 9 holes. They are open all year round.
Corrèze offers 5000km of rivers and streams, plus 4000 hectares of lakes and ponds, offering the fisherman carp, bream, tench, pike, perch and trout amongst other varieties.
Lac des Barriousses, Lac Viam and Peyrissac are very close to Treignac.
Places To Visit:
TREIGNAC - the local town and officially one of the most beautiful villages in France, is crossed by the River Vézère and lies at the foot of the Monédières.
ARGENTAT - a pretty little town set on the banks of the River Dordogne, which flows through the Corrèze.
THE PLATEAU DE MILLEVACHES - perfect for nature lovers with it's abundance of ponds and marshland, birds and wildlife.
TURENNE - Between the remains of the castle and the walls, a square keep and the round tower of Caesar still survive. Rich sandstone mansions lean up against the fortress.
GIMEL LES CASCADES - 3 spectacular waterfalls, tumbling into the verdant valley.
CHATEAU DE VAL - one of the best conserved and most remarkable castles in the area, this imposing fortress is flanked by six towers with pepper-pot turrets, the different roofs of which give VAL an original combination of colours.
COLLONGES LES ROUGES - ancient unusual red stone village, steeped in history.
TOURS DE MERLE - The home of an eleventh century family, who over the years tyrannised the surrounding neighbourhood, exacting fees from all who sought to descend the river past them. It wasn't until the hundred years war and the advent of gunpowder that they could be dislodged from their strongpoints. Throughout the summer there are "Son et Lumière" shows and outside the season, the guided tours continue. The Tours de Merle are an absolute must, not just for the historical curiosity, but for the beauty of the site.

Come and take a memorable break in our charming chalets for up to four guests, which are nestled in wooded countryside and overlook the picturesque lake of Treignac; voted one of the most beautiful villages in France. Perfect for holidays, short breaks and house-hunting trips alike.
We have two lovely wooden chalets, set in their own private woodland, which overlook the stunning lake with the dam to one side and forest beyond. Three other similar chalets, which are empty for the majority of the year, and a small hotel restaurant make up the total of your neighbours in this secluded spot, yet you are only 4.5km from the town of Treignac and 200m from the beach.
This is an idyllic situation offering a tranquil, natural environment in which to base your holiday in the Corrèze, known as Le Pays Vert (The Green Country).
