St. Léonard de Noblat and Domaine de Romefort are located alongside very old pilgrim route to St. Jacques de Compostella ( Spain ) and Rome . The origin of the word Romefort refers to Romaeus and Fort .
It's a firm and safe place to protect (roman) pilgrims. Many Romeforts were established alongside these pilgrim routes.
Before the Barrage de L'Artige was built in the 19th century, the water of the river Vienne had often been too high to be able to cross. In medieval times horses and carriages sometimes had to wait for days before they could pass the river. Therefore many of the travellers looked for a safe place to stay the night. At Romefort they were safe for highwayman and other rabble .
Domaine de Romefort used to consist of several small farmer cottages with barns. In the 17 th century the Manoir was built.
In total there are eight buildings of which besides the Manoir two were used to live in. Later these cottages were also used to house cows. Most of the barns have a classic lay-out. In the middle of the barn there is a huge door through which the hay-wagon could be driven. There is a hayloft on each side underneath which there is room for the cows.
La Rose is a comfortable, semi-detached gîte with a large, screened-off terrace. A river that is suitable for canoeing runs along the domain. The accommodation is ideal for holidays with family or friends.
On the east side of Romefort you will find the extensive nature reserve around the Lac de Vassiviere with water sports options. The forests in the immediate vicinity are ideal for hikers and mountain bikers. A recreational lake is a 15-minute drive away and the student city of Limoges, known for its porcelain, is 20 km away. You will find beautiful museums and various dining options. The medieval town of St. Léonard de Noblat is a 5-minute drive away, with cozy pubs and well-stocked supermarkets. The town is home to a beautiful old town center and a famous church with special architecture. It is a popular place for tourists and markets and events are regularly organized.
You start the days relaxing on the private terrace, with a cup of tea and an independently prepared breakfast. The residence has a well-equipped kitchen with dishwasher and for common use there is a trampoline, a fenced swimming pool and a laundry room (for a fee).

Locatie van de accomodatie was gemakkelijk te vinden en bij aankomst viel ons meteen de ruimte op. De van oorsprong oude boederij (door de eigenaren opgeknapt en omgebouwd tot vakantiewoningen) straalt een erg leuke, landelijke sfeer uit.
De aankomst was heel goed. Vriendelijk ontvangen en een ontspannen rondleiding over het terrein en door het huisje gekregen. De accommodatie was heel goed. Met de slaapkamers beneden bleven die heerlijk koel. De omgeving is prachtig!
Domaine de Romemort is ideaal voor gezinnen met kinderen. Er is vanalles te doen. Zo heb je er een boomhut... dat zie je toch bijna nergens en de kinderen vonden het geweldig. Leuk zwembad, badmintonnen, ping-pongen, boogschieten, kralenwerkshop,....... Hele vriendelijke mensen. Pizza avond en BBQ avond is een echte aanrader.
Die Domaine Romefort ist eine bestens für Familien mit Kindern geeignete Ferienwohn-Anlage und wenn die restlichen Häuser und die Aussenanlagen einmal fertig sind (z.Zt. noch mehrere Baustellen) wird es ein Paradies sein. Die einzelnen Ferienhäuser sind sehr schön eingerichtet und die niederländischen Gastgeber sind ausgesprochen sympathisch. Christa + Herbert Hölzenbein
