DIRECTIONS FROM LA COQUILLE TO ST PRIEST LES FOUGÈRES
FOR LA BOUCHERIE AND LA MAISON JAUNE
- Our village of St Priest Les Fougeres is located on the D79, the local
route between the town of La Coquille (on the RN 21 between Limoges and Perigueux)
and Jumilhac Le Grand with its famous chateau.
- At the traffic lights in La Coquille on the RN21, turn onto to the D79 sign-posted
St Priest Les Fougères and Jumilhac Le Grand. Coming south from Limoges
it will be a left turn. Travelling north from Perigueux, it will be a right
turn.
- The road winds down hill from La Coquille and then it climbs through a wooded
area. There is a turning left off the D79 to St Pierre de Frugie. Do not branch
onto this road, by mistake. Keep on the D79 into the village of St Priest
Les Fougères. It is well sign-posted. Just 2.5 kms from La Coquille.
- After the sign for entering the village, there is a garage on the left- hand side, and the post office on the right- hand side. Continue and go past the boulangerie on the right-had side, as if going to Jumilhac Le Grand. As you are about to leave the village you will see a sign for Euro Vernis on the right –hand side and a small road to the left (there are houses on each corner – one distinctive with a white picket fence), turn left here and as you come to the top of the road our house
LA BOUCHERIE will be right in front of you. To park your car
turn to the right and just go a little way down the road where you will see
a space to park on the left.
To reach the cottage, LA MAISON JAUNE continue past La Boucherie,
and just where the road makes a curve to the left, pull off the road to the
right, onto a gravelled and then grassed area. The cottage is then straight
ahead. Approximate distance from the two properties, 300 metres.
(Footnote - we recommend that if you've got sat/nav in the
car to turn it off upon reaching La Coquille and follow the above directions.
If not, you may find yourself doing a 'grand tour' of the local hamlets, thus
adding a lot of unnecessary driving time to your journey. We are literally 5
minutes from La Coquille.)
