Merinchal is a commune of France, located in the department of Creuse, in the région of Aquitaine. Creuse is part of the current region of Limousin. It is in the Massif Central and permeated by the Creuse River and its tributaries. The river is dammed at several locations both for water supply and hydroelectricity generation. Typically for an inland area of continental Europe, Creuse has relatively cold winters with some snowfall into April but also hot summers, although rain falls throughout the year because of the relatively high elevation. Since the late 1990s the Creuse has become a tourist destination. The summers are relatively warm, but not as hot as in the southern parts of France. With forests and a few houses dominating the landscape, and little pollution, many foreigners (notably British and Dutch, but also German and Belgian) have sought to buy homes in the Creuse.
