Overlooking the Vienne valley, Saint-Martin-de-Jussac is 4km from Saint-Junien on the Haut Limousin road, and less than half an hour from Limoges. Its location gives it a dual aspect: that of a small rural Limousin commune where agriculture is the main activity, and that of a residential commune on the outskirts of Saint-Junien. The most remarkable element of its historic heritage is its recently restored 12th and 15th century church. Adjacent to it, the former presbytery (18th century), restored with the help of the Vienne-Glane community of communes, is home to a large-capacity gîte (16 people) with the "Gîte de France" label.
The village is criss-crossed by a number of short hiking trails through a wide variety of landscapes.
