About this property
Peaceful Dordogne location, nature lovers paradise.
Nestling in its own private valley at the the end of a secluded track, lies Le Moulin du Gravier.
Although less than 20 minutes from Bergerac airport and the A89 Autoroute, this cottage benefits from a totally secluded and peaceful location in the tiny hamlet of St Martin des Combes, amongst trees and in its own private valley. the property overlooks a beautiful natural water source which is visited frequently by a Kingfisher. There is an abundance of wildlife and birds and in summer, many butterflies visit for the wild orchids that thrive in the surrounding fields.
The building itself benefits from being all on one level, making it suitable for people who may have limited mobility and comprises a large dual aspect bedroom with king size bed. Unfortunately both the bedroom and bathroom do not offer sufficient width to allow wheelchair access. The large living area has a well equipped kitchen and a two sofa sitting area with flat screen TV and a wood burning stove. French doors open out onto a terrace with water source and views over paddocks (BBQ provided). The shower room with sink and toilet are fully tiled and benefits from underfloor heating.
Further accommodation for two friends/family is available in our Shepherds Hut which comprises a rustic Kitchen Diner, private terrace and full bathroom facilities.
The swimming pool is also walled and private with its own solar shower it is exclusively for the use of guests.
The cottage is conveniently situated between Perigueux and Bergerac.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Michael Baker

We have a farm near Canterbury.
We share our time between both the farm and our home in France. Our passion is nature, wildlife and peaceful surroundings. We love searching local markets for antiques and artisan food producers. We also are involved in the local animal rescue centre in Bergerac and have two rescue Weimeraner dogs that Louise trains and uses for displays at dog charity events, to help promote re-habilitation of unwanted dogs.

Why they chose this property
We first came to the Dordogne 20 years ago, camping and then self-catering and discovered this lovely area after renting a house nearby. We bought the house in 2000, it was love at first sight! For us, the location was perfect; quiet and private, although it has needed a lot of improvements, we feel it is our own piece of paradise.
What makes this property unique
The Moulin du Gravier's unique position is itself truly special; the tranquillity and peace in this hidden valley just has to be experienced.
The swimming pool is for the exclusive use of our guests and is a real sun trap, benefitting from a solar shower and luxury sunloungers with shades. It has lovely views across the valley and forests and is totally private.
