Welcome booklet

Welcome to the Caravelle of Vassivière

Dear customers,

We are delighted to welcome you to La Caravelle. More than just a hotel, it's an experience. We welcome you like family, like friends, to a haven of peace in the heart of the Limousin region. Located right on the water's edge on the shores of Lake Vassivière, our establishment is situated within the Millevaches Regional Natural Park, a must-see destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.

Our village of Peyrat-le-Château, a designated Green Resort, is distinguished by its exceptional natural and historical heritage: lush forests, rolling hills, tranquil ponds, and landscapes that change with the seasons. Whether you're here for a romantic getaway, a family holiday, or an active break, every moment spent with us will be a source of serenity and discovery.

This booklet contains all the information you need to guide you throughout your stay.

Thank you for choosing our establishment and we hope that our services will satisfy you.

Our hotel is not currently accessible to people with reduced mobility.
