19 Corrèze
Region: Nouvelle-Aquitaine
Corrèze is a hidden gem in central France—lush, green, and brimming with rivers, valleys, and some of the most beautiful villages in the country. Less touristy than nearby Dordogne, it offers a similar charm with a more tranquil vibe.
The capital, Tulle, nestles between hills and is known for its accordions, lace, and winding streets. Brive-la-Gaillarde, the department’s largest town, is a lively commercial centre with markets, rugby culture, and a friendly local spirit. Uzerche, Turenne, Collonges-la-Rouge, and Curemonte are picture-perfect villages full of red sandstone buildings and medieval character.
Corrèze is ideal for walkers and nature lovers, with the Vézère and Dordogne rivers, forests, lakes, and rolling farmland. It’s dotted with châteaux, Romanesque chapels, and ancient bridges.
Property in Corrèze ranges from stone houses with red or honey-hued façades, riverside cottages, barn conversions, and rural estates with generous land. Prices remain accessible, making it a dream for anyone seeking authentic rural life in France.
