The Millevaches Plateau is in the heart of the Limousin mountain territory on the buttress of the Massif Central and extends over Limousin's three departments: Creuse in the north east; Haute-Vienne in the north west and Correze in the south.

During the summer months there are concerts, music nights, fetes and vide greniers (boot sales) held in Cheissoux and surrounding towns and villages.

Why not enjoy traditional cuisine in the Auberge de la Fontaine, Cheissoux's local restaurant and bar located next to a charming XIIIth century church. The lovely Lac de St. Helene with it's swimming beach is just 5 mins away.

Local facilities including shops, bars, restaurants, modern sports centre with indoor, heated swimming pool and sauna can be found in St Leonard de Noblat (13mins) and the much larger Lac de Vassivierre (25 mins) has several swimming beaches, a water taxi and a floating restaurant.
