Peace and quiet are key words when
describing the Limousin area. For visitors looking to escape the hustle
and bustle, this is the place to relax and unwind.
Close to the Dordogne but still relatively undiscovered the gently
rolling landscape is crossed with rivers, creeks and lakes, hence the
name ‘Little Canada’.
The department ‘La Creuse (23) is
part of the province of the Limousin, as well as the Haute Vienne (87)
and Corrèze (19). The name Creuse is a derivation from the French word
Creux, which means deep or hollow.The Creuse has only 130,000 inhabitants and is the least populated
area in France. There is no industry, and tourism is slowly developing.
