Visit the picturesque Perigord/Dordogne Region in a traditional Stone Farmhouse with a breathtaking valley view. Your Gite is located on a quiet semi-private single lane road, nestled amongst the idyllic countryside, in a hamlet of 18th century stone perigordian farmhouses. The Pool, Jacuzzi, and sundeck are situated in the tranquil orchard, surrounded by grass, trees and flowers. Only 2 km is the dramatic Chateau de Hautefort! A magnificent 17th C Chateau that rivals those in the Loire Valley. Nearby are prehistoric sites, medieval villages, and castles. After a day of touring the sites, relax and enjoy the serene valley views from your terrace or the pool!

See many photos of the 2 available houses and the many SITES of the REGION:
