What if your next family vacation in Corrèze became an adventure that both kids and adults will remember for a long time? At the Cabanes de Salagnac, in Meyrignac-l’Église, the forest becomes the backdrop for your stay: cabins nestled among the trees, paths to explore, streams, meadows, and 40 hectares of nature to slow down and simply enjoy time spent together.

Sleeping in a cabin with the family: the adventure begins upon arrival

For a child, sleeping in a cabin in the middle of the forest is no ordinary night. From the moment you arrive, the vacation takes on a whole new dimension. You leave traditional lodging behind to reach your refuge among the trees, watch the forest from the terrace, and fall asleep in an environment completely different from everyday life.

The cabins are built on stilts in the heart of the Corrèze forest. They feature all the comforts needed to enjoy the experience as a family: a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, and a terrace opening onto nature. In the morning, just a few steps are enough to find yourself surrounded by trees. A simple way to turn a family weekend in Corrèze into a true adventure.

Cabins designed for family stays

The Cabanes de Salagnac feature six cabins nestled in the forest, which can accommodate 2 to 4 people. The cabins are particularly well-suited for a setup of 2 adults and 2 children, with a double bed and a sofa bed. For slightly larger families, The Cottage can accommodate up to 5 people.

Everyone can enjoy comfortable accommodation while keeping the very thing that makes the stay so charming: the feeling of being nestled in the heart of nature.

Choosing a family cabin in Corrèze, means making your sleeping quarters an integral part of your vacation. The cabin is no longer just a base for activities: it becomes a memory of the trip in itself.

A vacation to slow down and enjoy each other's company

Between school, work, activities, and screens, family weeks are often packed. Vacations are the perfect opportunity to change the pace!

In Salagnac, there is no need to plan a schedule for every hour of the day. You can go for a walk on the estate, observe the trees and animals, play together, read on the terrace, or simply take the time to do nothing at all. The estate spans 40 hectares of forest and meadows, in an environment classified as a ZNIEFF. The Dagues stream, the undergrowth, the clearings, and the paths that cross the site naturally form a vast playground for exploration.

An ideal break to rediscover the joy of simple things and share a few days away from the usual routine.

What to do in Corrèze with children?

Spending your family vacation in Corrèzealso means discovering a region where outdoor activities take center stage.

From Les Cabanes de Salagnac, many outings are easily accessible, allowing you to alternate between quiet days on the estate and family excursions.

Explore the estate's 40 hectares

The adventure can begin without even getting in the car. Paths allow you to roam the estate, follow the Dagues stream, and walk through the undergrowth. Several marked hiking trails also pass directly through or near the property.

With children, a simple walk can quickly turn into a game: observing mushrooms, identifying trees, looking for animal tracks, or collecting little treasures found on the ground. In fine weather, guests staying in the cabins can also enjoy the shared outdoor saltwater pool, which is unheated and open from May to the end of September.

Discover the Gimel Waterfalls

Among the iconic outings in Corrèze, the Gimel Waterfalls make for a wonderful excursion during your stay.

Three waterfalls follow one another in a spectacular setting, in the heart of a wooded valley. A hike of about 4 km allows you to explore the site and add a real little nature adventure to your vacation itinerary.

Reach new heights in the Monédières massif

Another must-see landscape in the region: the Monédières Massif.

Several hiking trails offer the chance to discover its panoramas, particularly around the Puy de Sarran and the Puy de la Monédière.

It’s a wonderful way to introduce children to the Corrèze landscape, with its mix of forests, heathlands, and open views of the surrounding area.

Go on an adventure in the trees

For children who love to climb, there are several outdoor activities available nearby.

Guests staying in our cabins can enjoy a discount at the Wizz'tititree-top adventure park, a perfect way to round out an experience of staying among the trees.

Discover the Jardins de Colette

For a different kind of family outing, the Jardins de Colette are among the sites recommended from the estate.

With themed gardens, walking paths, and fun activities, it’s a visit particularly well-suited for families with children.

Discover the villages and landscapes of Corrèze as a family

Vacations are also the perfect time to hit the road and explore Corrèze.

From Salagnac, you can discover several of the region's iconic villages and sites: Uzerche, nicknamed the Pearl of the Limousin, Turenne, Collonges-la-Rouge or the landscapes of the Dordogne Gorges. Character villages, markets, castles, rivers, and panoramic views make it easy to plan a day of discovery tailored to the pace of the whole family. And after a few hours of exploring, returning to the cabin is part of the fun too.

Simple activities right on site

Not every day needs to be spent on a big excursion. When the weather is nice, the estate offers various ways to simply enjoy the outdoors: walking, swimming, racket games, Mölkky, or board games available at reception. The stream, the forest, and the wide-open spaces naturally become a playground for children. That is also what makes a family nature getaway in Corrèze so charming: being able to alternate between a day of discovery and a day where you simply decide to stay put.
