Here you will find cozy cafes, good restaurants and well-equipped supermarkets. The old center of the village is magnificent and the famous church has a particular architecture. It is well known as a tourist village and often markets and various events are held there. To the east of Romefort is the natural site that surrounds the resort of Lac de Vassivière. This 10 square kilometer lake has many beaches and plenty of water sports opportunities. The surrounding forests are ideal for hiking and mountain biking. A 15 minute drive away is a lovely recreational lake (see photo above). The beach of this lake (Lac de Sainte-Hélène) is supervised and suitable for all kinds of activities. Along the domain flows the Vienne which was fitted out in 2000 for the practice of canoeing. The hills are ideal for mountain biking through the forests, or racing bikes on small roads.

Location and surroundings of object
St. Léonard de Noblat and Domaine de Romefort are located alongside very old pilgrim route to St. Jacques de Compostella ( Spain ) and Rome . The origin of the word Romefort refers to Romaeus and Fort .
It's a firm and safe place to protect (roman) pilgrims. Many Romeforts were established alongside these pilgrim routes.
Before the Barrage de L'Artige was built in the 19th century, the water of the river Vienne had often been too high to be able to cross. In medieval times horses and carriages sometimes had to wait for days before they could pass the river. Therefore many of the travellers looked for a safe place to stay the night. At Romefort they were safe for highwayman and other rabble .
Domaine de Romefort used to consist of several small farmer cottages with barns. In the 17 th century the Manoir was built.
In total there are eight buildings of which besides the Manoir two were used to live in. Later these cottages were also used to house cows. Most of the barns have a classic lay-out. In the middle of the barn there is a huge door through which the hay-wagon could be driven. There is a hayloft on each side underneath which there is room for the cows.
Domaine de Romefort used to be a farm but is now converted into 7 luxury gîtes (holiday homes) and chambres d'hôtes (bed & breakfast).
The surroundings are varied, with green acres, forests and hills. The view is simply magnificent. Domaine de Romefort is well suited for hikers, bikers, families that love nature and the outdoors and for example family reunions.
