About the host

Hosted by Tracy Scott

Host profile image
We moved here almost 15 years ago and love every single day here!

We chose our little 'peace of heaven' , which we instantly fell in love with for many reasons. The large volumes both inside and outside the property are breathtaking. The weather here in the Dordogne, the seasons, the colours, blue skies, the weather, the scenery, friendliness of the local people, and did I mention the great weather!!

Why they chose this property

The area is one of the most beautiful and friendly and with something different around every corner. There is something for everyone here .....from youngsters to the more mature age, to see or do. Within 30 mins you can be canoeing down the Dordogne, tree top trekking, caving, wine tasting, admiring castles, hot air ballooning, the list is endless - and return after a fun filled day to the peace and quiet, have a lazy swim, listen to the tree frogs and crickets, whilst softly rocking in the hammock with a book......... simply wonderful!

What makes this property unique

A step back in time where you can completely unwind! Sunsets are magnificent and stars that go on and on forever............

Up a private lane, with no passing traffic, a safe haven for children with a great park to keep them amused whilst you enjoy the total peace and tranquility.
