About this property

16th Century Manoir; Large Ensuite Bedrooms, Original Features, Many Steps!

A 100 meter tree-lined drive leads from the A57 to the manoir with plenty of parking to the left in front of the barn. Enter the tower on mostly original, well worn, stone spiral steps to the hall. The ground floor boasts 4m high beamed ceilings. The dining room retains original 16th century fireplace, the salon is dominated by an immense fireplace and has hand painted beams, and the kitchen is furnished with all the utensils, pots glasses, cups and dishes you'll need. Meals can be enjoyed in the kitchen, dining room, or on the patio with direct access from the kitchen and salon.
There are six large ensuite bedrooms, some of which retain 1970's style and show their age, yet are still comfortable by modern standards.
The 5m x 9m unheated swimming pool is about 30 meters from the house and open from May to September. Two walled gardens, one of which is gated and provides a contained space for children or pets to romp. Direct views of chateaux Marqueyssac, Castelnaud, and Beynac to the south and west await you, and you may see hot air balloons.
We are happy to give advice for activities in the area, nature walks from the house, tourist sites, restaurants, and we are especially bicycling friendly.
Bakery, butcher and convenience stores are within 3km at Beynac and Castelnaud while Supermarkets are just 8km away in Sarlat and 12km in St Cyprien. Linens, towels and beach towels, as well as end of week cleaning is included with the price.
You will love it here so much you won't want to go home!

Wonderful country property
This property was just perfect for our group of 3 families (6 adults and 6 older children) to get together from different corners of the world. The house was extremely comfortable and warm for our winter stay, spotlessly clean and well maintained, perfect for a lot of cooking and eating. We enjoyed the huge open fire, playing the piano, games of chess and hide and seek (lots of board games and books) and the huge flat screen TV. The house is perfectly situated to enjoy touring the Dordogne - fabulous markets every day, gorgeous little villages and castles of Beynac and Roque de Gageac (and many others - Rocamadour was a highlight too and well worth the drive.) Sarlat is close by for large supermarkets, petrol, great market and even a cinema. Dan and Karen were wonderful hosts, and left us many pantry items and treats - walnuts and pomegranates from the property, wine and chocolates, coffee..... We were all reluctant to leave!

Simply amazing.
We are a family of four. We stayed for a week and had various friends and family stay for short periods throughout the week ranging from 2 to 85 years old and everyone absolutely loved it. The property is stunning, the photos don’t do it justice. It is perfectly located in between beautiful towns and villages with perfect views to Chateauxs with hot air balloons in the morning. The hosts Dan and Karen have perfected the ideal blend of being welcoming, available, attentive whilst allowing you to peacefully enjoy your stay. The kitchen is really well equipped with complimentary local biscuits and coffee. The property is immaculately well kept with every small detail thought of. The beds are really comfortable, the water pressure in the showers is brilliant. The pool is clean and perfect for larger groups as well as small. We also had our two dogs. They were very welcoming and dog friendly and there are wonderful walks in the surrounding area. We booked our next stay here before we left and can’t wait to come back.

Blissful return to the Dordogne
Our extended family (grandfather, his children and their children) gathered at this special truly unique home over a period of three weeks. Years ago we had spent some time in the Dordogne and always wanted to come back. We could not have had a more beautiful or memorable time than we did in Vezac. The house is spacious, inviting and well-equipped. The vistas are stunning. The pool was refreshing and a lovely spot for gathering. We had perfect weather and enjoyed all our meals at the tables out of doors, often with hot air balloons wafting overhead. As hosts, Dan and Karen were gracious, thoughtful and attentive to details. We appreciated the good sheets and towels, fine soap, local goodies, and well-stocked kitchen and laundry. They also offered excellent advice for markets to visit, places to eat, and walking trails to local villages. The area is rich with history, culture, food and activities. We loved every minute of our stay in this extraordinary spot. We'd love to come back.

Formidable !
Séjour parfait entre amis. 3 familles avec des enfants de 8 à 16 ans. Le logement est impeccable, très propre, très bien équipé et à la hauteur du nombre de couchages et très spacieux. Tout est réuni pour un séjour parfait ! Les petits plus : la table de ping-pong, le piano, le jeu d'échecs et la piscine !

About the host

Hosted by Daniel Westerdale

Host profile image
I'm American, Karen is British. We lived in North Yorkshire, England from 1996-2019. I'm a keen cyclist and we both love to travel. I'm retired and Rochecourbe is our first experience with renting out our property on a weekly basis. Since buying the house in 2016, and moving here in 2019, we've made many improvements to the house and grounds ourselves and hope to continue to make Manoir de Rochecourbe better every year. - Dan

Why they chose this property

Fantastic views of chateaux Beynac, Castelnaud, and Marqeyssac, reinforce that this is a special location, perfect for visiting many of the most popular sites. The position of the house below the western slope of a hill prevents the sun from blazing too early, and provides for sunny evenings. Frequent appearance of hot air balloons in the early mornings or evenings add to the local specific charm.
Local convenience store, butcher and boulangerie are only 2.5km in Beynac, and several supermarkets are just 10km away in Sarlat or St Cyprien. Access to the house is straightforward, easy, and we have plenty of room to park several vehicles. We are just off a main road, so getting around the area is especially easy.

What makes this property unique

Manoir de Rochecourbe has a simple floor plan with impressive features: high, beamed ceilings, painted beams, large ensuite bedrooms, spiral stone steps in the tower, and of course the two original 16th century fireplaces and the huge fireplace in the living room. The proximity to Sarlat, the Dordogne River, Lascaux Caves, and wine regions of Cahors and Bergerac make it ideally situated to enjoy the entire Dordogne region. We own 4 hectares of fields and woods on the slope above the house which are open for exploration, walking dogs, chasing butterflies, or just finding a quiet spot to relax.
