Lessac, Charente 16500

This magnificent chateau was built in 1854 on the foundations of an old medieval castle. It is located in the Charente region and offers tranquil rural surroundings. From the property itself you can admire the views over the valley, a small vineyard and some isolated farms. The attractive medieval town of Confolens, one of the most beautiful towns on the River Vienne is only 4 km away and offers full amenities and services. The historic cities of Limoges Angouleme and Poitiers are under an hour's drive away. Over the past 25 years the current owners have gradually restored this ensemble while retaining many of the original features and the charm of the setting. The chateau is currently run as a thriving gite and yoga retreat.
