About this property

Fabulous Cottage in the Stunning Dordogne

Welcome to our lovely cottage situated in the heart of the Dordogne, with three bedrooms (one double, one twin and one single) and two bathrooms which makes it ideal for families and couples.

A New inground swimming pool, (unheated).

You will arrive at the property along a country lane with no-through traffic and we have a lovely long garden which makes it safe for families with young children. There are some lovely country walks for those who like to ramble and don't forget your bike maybe you could enjoy your own Tour de France!

The cottage has an open-plan lounge and newly fitted kitchen with french doors opening up onto a sun-drenched terrace and built-in barbecue, ideal for spending long summer evenings under the stars, excellent for sharing a bottle of the locally produced wines or for winter evenings cosy by the roaring fire, reading a good book. For parents that would like a romantic evening out without the children, babysitting can be arranged.

Our cottage provides total relaxation yet with all the jewels the region has to offer within a mere 10-20 minutes away.

In the immediate area there are many activities to be enjoyed including hot air ballooning, fishing, 18 hole golf course, canoeing, walking, lazy boat trips down the river, pony trekking and wine tasting.

We are situated in the Perigord Noir - the heart of the Dordogne. In an area of outstanding natural beauty where every turn leads to a picture postcard view. Discover the famous châteaux, beautiful villages and timeless scenery of a region immersed in history that stretches back to prehistoric times.

The region is famous for its gastronomy and wine, inside the many excellent local restaurants you can sample the local products such as walnuts, foie gras, confit de canard, truffles, goose and of course enjoy the famous french wines.

Chateau Millandes is only a five minute drive away, the château was once owned by the famous dancer Josephine Baker, whose life story is fascinating and there is also an excellent display of birds of prey, this is definitely one we recommend you visit. In the grounds of the château are lovely gardens, a restaurant, crazy golf and a swimming pool.

Only 15 minutes away is the stunning historic town of Sarlat, where there are many events during the summer with plenty of restaurants and cafes to choose from. There is also an excellent market held on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Other markets in the area include Le Bugue on a Tuesday and St Cyprien on a Sunday. Meander through the streets trying and buying the local produce or alternatively laze away an hour or two at one of the many cafes watching the people go by.

Keywords: Idyllic rural cottage in a country setting, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Bonnes vacances en Dordogne
Une très jolie petite maison. Accueil plus que sympathique avec un premier approvisionnement dans le frigidaire pour le premier petit déjeuner. Vraiment très agréable. Pour que tout soit vraiment parfait, il faudra juste penser à changer les poêles qui ont fait leur temps. A part ça nous recommandons chaleureusement cette maison.

Fantastic, well located, spacious Gite!
The check-in process and communication (well ahead of our arrival date) was flawless. We were very surprised at the level of detail that had gone into equiping the property and number of essentials that are rarely provided at other properties (bin bags, tin foil, cooking oil, laundry detergent spices and basics for breakfast! ) The owners clearly care a great deal and this should be acknowleged - as so many do not, in our experience. The house was spacious and clean and bedding was of a high quality. The garden was also spacious and the pool was larger than we expected from the photographs in the listing . We had a very hot week (mid August '23) and the pool was absolutely essential and a comfortables temperature (for our young children to spend hours in each day). The house is 10 mins or so from anywhere (so a car is essential) and the supermarkets are 15-20mins away. You are however only 10-20mins from many castles and the Dordogne river itself. We enjoyed the quiet. We would certainly return.

Premières vacances dans le Périgord
Tout d’abord, nous avons été accueillis par Sarah et Paul qui sont des hôtes charmants . La maison correspond en tout point à l’annonce . L’emplacement géographique est idéal pour les visites . Impossible de s’ennuyer . Tellement de choses à découvrir dans cette belle région . Tout est beau . Tout est bon . Il est très agréable de profiter d’une piscine privée , surtout par cette chaleur. Nous avons pu nous reposer dans un calme absolu , dans un bel écrin de verdure , bercés par le chant d’une multitude d’oiseaux et de cigales . Amoureux de la nature , vous serez au bon endroit. Nous vous le recommandons.

About the host

Host profile image
We came over here with our two children and two cats, ten years ago to escape city life and experience a different culture.

Why they chose this property

We bought the cottage because of its wonderful countryside location. We can watch the wildlife whilst being only 10 minutes away from all the local restaurants and attractions.
