The beliefs and the superstitions of Limousin, deep in the countryside of rural France where wolves roamed the beautiful and wild countryside not so long ago , and people feared werewolves, witches and vampires. They believed in the healing waters of the fountains and the local healers. There are still healers in the Limousin, and a wolf park keeps the memory of the wolf alive - listen to the howling in a short video clip. Les Trois Chenes Guest house and holiday cottage is on the borders of the Limousin, the Dordogne and the Charente near the medieval town of Rochechouart. A perfect place to stay for a really magical French holiday.
