Vacation country home in Dordogne with private pool

Introduction

The property comprises a beautiful, private 50 hectare estate in the Dordogne countryside. Endless countryside with few nearby properties - lovely walks in meadows and woods.
Interior lawned garden and large courtyard with covered dining terrace and games room.

Private pool 12 x 6m with large sun terrace and pool-side bathroom and drinks fridge.

Private, all-weather tennis court, games room with darts, table-tennis, bar football. Fridge freezer.
Croquet set, badminton and football goals.

Hugely impressive house and living accommodation over three floors. The property dates back to the 12th century and has many original features remain including the central stone staircase carved from a single block of white stone.

Living room with floor-to-ceiling staircase, flat-screen TV and Wi-Fi internet.

Wonderful 'social' kitchen with large central dining table for 14. Fully fitted units with two dishwashers, washing machine and dryer and double range cooker.

Large first floor master bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. Four further bedrooms and two family bedrooms on the second floor.

Restaurant, bakery and small supermarket in St Saud, 9 km. St Pardoux, 15 min with restaurants.
All amenities in Thiviers, 20 min.

Brantome, 25 min is a hugely pretty town with all amenities including lovely restaurants and café bars.

Périgueux 40 min is the capital town of the Dordogne – a mid-size, bustling place with lots of traditional restaurants and markets. Best eating places are around boulevard Montaigne, rue Limogeanne and the lovely Place St Louis.

Just north of Brantome is the hamlet of Villars. The hamlet itself is unexciting, but it is surrounded by lovely countryside and is a great base from which to explore Château de Puyguilhem and St Jean de Cole. The Grottes de Villars (pre-historic caves) are just past the hamlet and were discovered in 1958 and feature cave paintings.

Just north of Brantome is the hamlet of Villars.

The Grottes de Villars (pre-historic caves) are just past the hamlet and were discovered in 1958 and feature cave paintings.

Perhaps the most famous of the Dordogne tourist attractions are the cave paintings around Les Eyzies. There are more pre-historic caves in this area than you could ever visit in a day! Les Eyzies lies at the heart of an unspoilt area of great natural beauty with rolling hills, tranquil rivers and fascinating cliff and rock formations. It has some of the world’s most beautiful caves with outstanding stalactite and stalagmite crystallisations. And the cave-lined Vézère valley has been classified as a heritage site by UNESCO.

The most well-known of all is the cave at Lascaux which was discovered in 1940. The paintings date back some 17,000 years.
