*** One of the most beautiful times to visit the Correze is in the Spring, when it is often sunny and hot and everything is bursting into life, but there are not many tourists about.  
 
July and August are peak season for the French as for the English so it gets more lively with more going on in the bars etc. The weather is usually hot and can be stormy.  
 
September and October are very peaceful here, but the summer weather normally continues through these months, even into November sometimes and the forests are stunning in their autumn colours.  
 
Winter usually begins with a vengeance after Christmas, when we can get lots of snow and certainly some fine minus temperatures, but the beauty of the Correze never alters.  
 
There are some very good restaurants in the area, one of which is just near the chalets and offers great value lunches and lovely evening meals in pretty surroundings. The cafe-bars in Treignac are very friendly and are super for just sitting, taking in the atmosphere and watching the world go by.  
 
If you are feeling lively, the area boasts several water sport activities, such as waterskiing on the nearby lakes, rafting, kayaking and canoeing on the rivers Vezere, Vienne and Dordogne as well as on the various lakes, where windsurfing is also a popular choice.  
 
For the mountain bikers amongst you, there are several VTT trails in the vicinity with some ‘Black’ runs to test the most seasoned mountain biker.  
 
The tranquil Correze is a walker’s paradise and nearby Treignac is situated on the GR440 and G46, major official walking routes of France, so you will be able to explore to your heart’s content the unspoilt, rolling hills and forests of the Correze.
