Bed and breakfast Riders Rest

Bed and breakfast Riders Rest. Wendy & Tony both long time bikers will be pleased to greet you, whether for a one night stop over, or to stay longer and explore the beautiful CORRÈZE region of Limousin... That means secure parking - space to store your gear, drying facilities (God forbid it should rain) - Breakfast when you want it - Evening meal (additional) - Cold beer and good wine - Close to some of the best Twisties in the region - Or if you are simply passing through on your way somewhere then a friendly place to over night with people who understand the needs of those on two wheels. Located 3.3 miles NE of Treignac. Ideally located for further travel to Spain, or the South Coast of France, The Midi Pyrenees, or the Rhone Alps.

Things to see and do in the area

Le Mont Dore 90 mile -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Okay not the place for a ride in the winter months but some major twisties to be had in and around the area in the spring and summer months... Oradour-sur-Glane 65 mile -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During World War II, the village of Oradour-sur-Glane, on the outskirts of Limoges, was destroyed and its people were massacred by Nazis. The site of one of the most horrific massacres of the Second World War Oradour-sur-Glane is now a memorial to the events of June 10th, 1944. On that day, Nazi troops killed virtually the entire village population - only six people out of 648 inhabitants survived. to tell this crucial piece of history, part of the village remains the same as it was after it was destroyed, with everything left in place just as it was on that day. The cars are still on the street exactly where they were left, furniture still in place in the houses that survived the fires. Oradour-sur-Glane is truly a unique memorial and one that genuinely evokes the meaning of one of the awful events of that time. Story Millau Bridge 162 mile -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For those of you who don't know what the Millau Viaduct is, it's the world's highest suspension bridge, and one of world's longest. It opened in 2004, and is located in the mid-South of France, bridging a long valley. The A75 auto-route runs via the bridge. The bridge rests on 7 pillars, and spans 2.5 kilometres (1.5 miles) with a width of 38 meters (125 feet). The tallest portion of the bridge is 244 meters (800 feet)! Mas du Clos, 45 miles -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- where driving makes complete sense. This rugged track in the midst of the Massif Central foothills was created by a great fan of driving. Along its 3.1km course and its four different routes, you can find every possible turn, all the elements that make a great track: big bends, reverse curves, left and right turns, off-camber turns, straight lines. The Mas du Clos is one of the few "real" circuits that is still in use; its reputation lies in its technicality and the emotions it creates, a mixture of respect and apprehension.
