Saint-Robert, a Benedictine gem and stately homes in the heart of the Corrèze countryside
Situated on the border between Limousin and Périgord, Saint-Robert combines the simple charm of its countryside with the grandeur of its medieval heritage.
Let yourself be captivated by the beauty of its fortified Romanesque church, a remnant of a former Benedictine monastery, and by the elegance of its stately homes built of cut stone! Perched at 350 metres above sea level, the village offers a panoramic view of the rolling countryside of southern Corrèze.
Looking for a quiet yet charming getaway? You’ve come to the right place!

The filming of the television series “Des grives aux loups” (1984), adapted from a saga by Claude Michelet, a local resident, remains etched in the villagers’ memories.

Walk to the miraculous fountain
Here’s a lovely suggestion for a walk for lovers of nature and legends! This 7 km route (allow 2 hours 15 minutes’ walking) will take you to a place known as ‘Saint-Maurice’, which was once home to a commandery of the Order of Saint John, of which a few remains can still be seen, notably two beautiful arches and, above all, a ‘miraculous’ fountain. According to legend, this fountain is said to have the power to heal sick children and help the elderly age well...
