萊斯皮卡迪斯飯店(Les Picardies)

Martin was a great host. The only food option is pizza in the evening which was fine for us but there aren't any food options within walking distance. The breakfast was basic but very pleasant, including some home grown produce. The pool area was nice and although very cold we enjoyed a swim. It was so peaceful and helped us switch off for a few hours. Overall we think Martin offers great value for money, the rooms are basic and don't have any mod cons but it was perfect for a one night stay for us. We did think cleaning of the rooms could have been better as there were a few surfaces that had been missed. There probably isn't enough going on nearby for us to have stayed longer but overall we were very happy.

We cannot praise our stay at Les Picardies highly enough. Martin went out of his way to make us comfortable and was incredibly supportive and helpful when our baby daughter became unwell during our holiday. He was flexible with our arrangements and provided delicious pizza to keep us sustained and really good wine (he is an expert) for a great price. He is a very kind man and made us feel calm and at home during a difficult time. This is great place to spend a holiday - the pool is lovely and the rooms very comfortable.

This was our third visit to Les Picardies, and our first stay in the newly converted gite. Martin and Em have done a marvellous job with what was just a few years ago little more than a ruin. The rooms are spacious and airy, and the decor and facilities demonstrate the thought and flair that have gone into the conversion. The adjacent pool and al fresco area were especially popular with our party (six adults, and a three-year old and a one-year old), and we hardly ventured out apart from popping onto the village for fresh croissants. We did allow ourselves an evening at L'Estaminet in Esse, just 15 minutes away for some of the best food in the area. We shall be coming back soon, and have passed the word on to friends and family!

Not only is the house, location and surrounding countryside of Les Picardies enchanting, our hosts, Emily and Martin, stopped at nothing to make us feel welcome and totally relaxed. I can still hear the gentle chirping of frogs and smell the soft scent of wildflowers on the spring breeze.

Super nice experience in a lovely area of France. Hosts could not have been any nicer and more welcoming. Absolutely beautiful property and perfect place to unwind and relax. Walking distance to some charming nice local villages which was an added benefit and one I did not know about before visiting. Easy to get to from the nearby airport.

We recently stayed in the newly refurbished Gîte, located next to the main house and had a fantastic experience. The accommodation is exceptionally designed and has excellent added features, such as USB charger plugs in each room which make a real difference. The accommodation is incredibly spacious with a large sitting room, as well as a large open, plan kitchen and living area. The bathrooms are brand new and the bedrooms are also very generous on space. The outdoor area is also a real suntrap and the accommodation is located steps away from the lovely outdoor swimming pool and sitting area. The main house is also excellent and we were blown away by the service provided by our hosts, Emily and Martin. They could not have been more accommodating and have created at Les Picardies a tranquil and peaceful escape from the busyness of city life. It is also in a hard to beat location, only 30 mins drive from Limoges airport and within walking distance of a very pleasant village with some great restaurants. Emily and Martin know many of the local business owners, so are very well equipped to suggest activities and places to eat. We will, without a doubt, be back in the future!

Beyond expectations. Photos cannot convey the magical a**osphere of this house and the genuine welcome, warmth & attention to detail from the Owners Martin & Em. Quite superb and, for sure, I will return.

Une très bonne nuit aux Picardies, un hôte très agréable et à l’écoute, un établissement propre, soigné! Merci pour l’adresse du restaurant, c’était parfais! Nous recommandons les yeux fermés à qui souhaite passer un moment en pleine campagne loin de tout!
