Welcome to Fonclaire

Converted French Farm Set in 25 Acres of Land

Open all year

 

Fonclaire is set in twenty five acres of pasture and woodland in the beautiful countryside of the Haute Vienne, with a new golf course just 3kms away , five minuets away from Bellac and thirty minuets from Limoges.You can often see wildlife in the form of deer, ragondan, heron and buzzards.


We have our own resident animals too , a donkey, some ducks and chickens.
Also in the grounds is a small lake containing mirror and common carp.The accommodation consists of two gites and three chambre d'hotes (B&B).
All rooms are on the ground floor except the mezzanine bedroom and have tea/coffee making facilities and hair dryers. Outside there is a newly built above ground swimming pool of 10 x 4 and 1.30 meters deep.

All guests have full use of the barbecue and covered eating area beside the lake. In the grounds there is a small camping area for six caravans or tents, with a shower block and dishwashing facilities. So you can holiday with family and friends who like to camp.

The boulangerie van calls most days but if you miss her there is a baker in the village and a very reasonable restaurant with a set four course meal with wine all for around 13€. 

.The owners have a selection of brochures in the gites or you can visit the tourist information for the latest what's on.

Activities

You will find a lot to see and do in the area you could follow the route of Richard the Lionheart, visit Oradour-sur-glane, the martyr village, or you may like to walk or cycle around the Monts de Blond. In high season you can swim in the lakes with man made beaches at Cieux or Lac St.Pardoux with life guard surveillance. Then there is the pretty village of Mortemart less than 2km away where you can linger over lunch or a drink ,and marvel at the dwellings from Jean Jaques café. Bellac has a swimming pool and supermarkets and Limoges is a must for the fine porcelain and Aquarium.There are many markets ,brocante and depot vent to search through, if you like looking for bargains, maybe a french bed or armoire?

We are also able to offer painting /drawing classes with a local English artist. Half day sessions in the grounds and surrounding area. Please enquire if interested for more details.



Why not sit by the lake with a glass of wine whilst you decide.Your hosts Phil, Lyn and Rob who have renovated the accommodation over the last two years are happy to help with questions about living in France or putting you in touch with experts who can help if you are house hunting.
