Where the carpets come from...


Near Aubusson in the Limousin, here's a lovely feudal manor from the 13th century, surrounded by a wooded park of two hectares, close to a little town. The central building has thick stone walls, flanked by a round tower. Eleven rooms on three levels, including six bedrooms with bathrooms for all the guests on those murder mystery weekends. 
The interior has been, they say, "perfectly" restored, which leaves period elements, such as the stone spiral staircase, the wine cellar, and the panoramic view of the Limousin countryside. As you can see, some of the redecorating has been quite up-to-date for some tastes, but we can all use a few creature comforts.
You'll have a new slate roof, recent rewiring, and central heating, and there's a little house on the property that needs restoring, so you'll have plenty to keep you busy when you're not hawking or practicing your archery.
