Maison N° 9 - Welcome

Welcome to Maison N°9

'A few meandering steps from the Market Square will lead you to Maison N^o9, tucked away in the old part of town. A French Manor House of classical proportions built in the 1790’s by the Marquis de Valady, the house remained as his family home for over 200 years. Still retaining the charm and ambience of a family home, John and Soos now open wide their door to welcome the discerning traveller to stay a while, - enjoy!

An oasis of elegance and calm in an excellent location - ideally placed for exploring the Limousin countryside, but also a mere 35 minutes to Limoges and its airport. Just off the A20 and N145, about halfway up, down or across France.

Relax on the terrace that fills with sunshine and leads out onto the lush, secluded garden and courtyard, which offers secure, private parking for our guests.

Over the years we have welcomed guests from all walks of life and from all over the world, from Pilgrims to Politicians, Circus Entertainers to Olympic sportsmen, and we hope to see you too!'

We stopped over on the way down from London to the Pyrennees. Stunning building, beautifully and sympathetically restored by the owners. It's worth staying just to wander round the building and enjoy all the space!! Then they cooked us the best dinner I've had in a B&B anywhere and all for a very very reasonable price. The hosts were lovely as well.

It was a magical stay, in an enchanted, old world setting. The hosts went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. Wonderful meals if you want, and the breakfast is amazing. My room was very spacious and sunny. It's a place to go to feel special.

We spent four nights at maison numéro Neuf at la Souterraine, and couldn't have wished for a better place; the house and the rooms are beautiful, spacious and stylishly decorated. Duncan, Lisa and both kids are such warm and hospitable people and make you feel welcome in their home. Whenever we need a room in that area or for friends or family, we will certainly recommend this little treasure in La Souterraine.

Myself and family of 5 (consists of x2 adults toddler aged 18 months/12 and 15 year old) spent 3 nights at maison numéro Neuf at la Souterraine, and we couldn't have wished for a better place; the house and the rooms are beautiful, spacious and stylishly decorated, the beds was super comfortable and clean.Owners Duncan and Lisa were very hospitable people and make you feel welcome in their home from the moment you walk in the front door. Every morning we were greeted with a luxurious fresh breakfast. Very nicely done. The best feature however is the common dining table. The owners used to have a restaurant, and they really cook very well ! We had a great time chatting with them and other travellers.

Lovely place, in La Souterraine (we found it by chance, looking for a place to stay on our way south). As the picture shows, this really is a beautiful old building, tastefully restored by the owners (UK couple). Wooden floors, large rooms, that look rustic but are in fact very comfortable with well-equipped bathrooms in retro style.

Area

The Limousin is an area of France to discover. With the lowest population density, it has lots of fabulous open countryside to explore - an ideal antidote to the stress of urban life. There are numerous beaches on the river Creuse and on the lakes in the region, some busy with bars and restaurants, activities and events, and others more hidden and tranquil!

Hundreds of kilometres of cycling and walking trails including a Pilgrim route to Santiago de Compostela, and some more unusual things to see and do, such as Velorail, Oradour-sur-Glane, The wolf sanctuary, and the Labyrinth at Gueret, add to the more expected Churches and Chateaux, villages and towns to wander round at a relaxed pace.

The web sites listed below will give you information about some of the activities available in the region.
