Unique in the world: Life in the private residence of this 19th century porcelain manufacturer.
In the heart of the Limousin region, but only 4 kilometres from Limoges International Airport, our property is the perfect escape from the hectic pace of city life… less than 2 hours from central London and 3 hours from Paris. Relax and unwind on hiking and running trails, or play tennis and even enjoy a swim in our pool. Anglers can explore our fish ponds. Discover honey from our own beehives and our gourmet jams and terrines made on the property. Tuck into our hearty and flavourful cuisine, pairing your meal with a selection from the 350 wines in our cellar. The hotel comprises 14 guest rooms and apartments. Our villa is the ideal choice for a weekend break with friends or a large family.
At Chapelle Saint-Martin, a few miles from Limoges in France, guests can withdraw from the rigors of everyday life to experience the refinement of a 19th-century private residence. The hotel’s grounds cover some 40ha, an area rich in biodiversity and mature trees.
To help preserve this natural heritage, the property has installed its own hives. Initially, three beehives were installed, and seven more have now been added. The hotel’s surroundings now play host to some half a million bees. Hives are carefully placed throughout the grounds and moved according to the seasons and flowers in bloom. The bees produce honeys from a diversity of flowers, and the 220kg a year produced is served at the hotel’s breakfast tables, used in its restaurant’s dishes, or sold in La Chapelle’s shop. The property also offers its guests educational visits to the hives.
