This fun-filled tour takes the whole family on a fascinating journey, where craftsmanship and creativity intertwine. Then the exhibition ‘Paper Comes to Life’ invites you to dream and reflect on the human body and existence. 💖
In addition, the creative workshops offer children the joy of making memories with their own hands that they’ll cherish for a long time to come. Finally, for lunch, the picnic area on the banks of the Vienne is a perfect spot in the countryside to share a cosy moment with the family, lulled by the murmur of the river. 💦

5. In the shoes of a smallholder farmer
Getting up close with the animals at the educational farmLooking for an activity that will delight the little ones? Head to the Domaine d’Hestia in Saint-Paul for a hands-on experience of farm life. 🐐
Here, children don’t just watch the animals from behind a fence: they feed them, help look after them and discover what daily life is like on a small-scale farm. Angora goats, sheep, a donkey, pigs and chickens become their companions for a full or half-day packed with discoveries. 🐓
An ideal outing for families seeking an authentic experience during their summer holidays in the Haute-Vienne. Bonus: you can even have a picnic on site after the activities. 🧺
6. Sport in the great outdoors
Fresh air for little adventurersActive holidays = happy holidays! And let’s be honest: a child who’s had a good run about outdoors is a child who falls asleep quickly… Which leaves parents free to take a breather (or sip a Limousin kir 🍹, in moderation of course). Here are our nature-based ideas to try as a family:
- Canoeing on the Vienne 🚣 – a refreshing experience amidst unspoilt countryside
- Horse or pony rides 🐴 in the Limousin countryside
- Hikes in the countryside 👟 just a stone’s throw from Saint-Léonard de Noblat
- An introduction to fishing…🎣 with Grandad, practising patience by the water’s edge
The perfect way to make memories whilst breathing in the fresh air to your heart’s content! 🌿
