This delightful semi-detached 2-bed stone cottage lies in a quiet hamlet in the Limousin, France's least populated region. It is said that more people live in the city of Marseille than in the whole of the region of Limousin. A little while ago, they put this to the test and the two populations swapped places. Sure enough, all the Limousin residents were comfortably housed in Marseille (with apartments to spare) while many Marseillais were unable to find accommodation in the Limousin and ended up sleeping rough on park benches.
