About this property

'The Barn', A large 4 person gite with pool, in a quiet and restful location

Comfortable 2 bedroom gite with a private pool, in a rural location, but close to ammenities.
Not far from the famous NW Dordogne riverside town of Brantome with it’s Imposing abbey, is the small village of St. Just, and here a quiet lane leads to the four properties which form the hamlet of La Roche Chabrelle
Our home, Maison la Roche (formerly 'Chez Hodgkiss'), is the last building before the lane becomes a track. This quiet hamlet is in an elevated position overlooking woods and farmland, with gentle walks all around.
Maison la Roche, comprises an old farmhouse and converted barn set in almost 2 acres of land.
The barn has been lovingly converted into a luxury two bedroom gite which is private from the main house, providing a tranquil and exclusive environment for the perfect French getaway. There are a wealth of exposed stone walls, oak floors and rustic beams. Decoration and furnishings have been chosen to provide comfort and convenience for your holiday. The barn is split level with four steps up from the living areas to the kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom.
The gite has its own sun terrace looking over the pool and woodland garden where there are lovely views over the valley
The post van is the total passing traffic, however we are not remote, being within easy reach of La Tour Blanche, Riberac, and Brantome with nearby shops and restaurants. Venturing further afield will take you to the lively departmental capital of Perigueux (30mins)or north to the vibrant city of Angoulème (45mins)
Here is a place for relaxing and enjoying your home away from home, and as a base for exploring the surrounding area, either by foot, bicycle or car.

Absolutely perfect

We stayed here for a short five day break for my daughter's 18th birthday present. She has some additional needs and we needed somewhere that had its own pool so she would not be forced to interact with anyone outside of the family. This place was perfect!!! Chris and Annie were amazing hosts. They answered any queries and questions we had, but left us entirely to our own devices, whilst being available if needed. The Gite itself was spotlessly clean and incredibly well equipped with everything you could want. Even a washing machine and our own line which means we have gone home with very little washing !!! The dishwasher was also a real help. The grounds are lovely and the pool was just perfect with views over the countryside, sun beds and umbrellas. Pool towels and bath towels were also included. Little touches such as olive oil, salt and pepper, washing up liquid, hand soap and a lovely bottle of red wine and even a bottle of pink fizz for my daughter's birthday, were the icing on the cake. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area, within a 30 min drive. Brantome is beautiful as is Perrigeaux. I really have nothing negative to say about this wonderful place and we hope to be able to return there in the future. Thanks to Chris and Annie for making our stay so wonderful 😊

About the host

Hosted by Annie and Chris Coombs

Host profile image
We are Chris and Annie Coombs and we bought this beautiful property in September 2021, a year after relocating to France from West Wales. We can't believe we've found an even slower pace of life here in the north of beautiful Dordogne. We love the lush wooded countryside that changes with the seasons and is as beautiful in the depths of Winter as it is when Spring finally arrives. We enjoy walking and spotting the varied wildlife here including elegant birds of prey, pretty groups of deer and plump otters in the ponds and streams.

Why they chose this property

Maison la Roche is a beautiful stone built farmhouse, at the end of the chemin, in a small hamlet, La Roche Chabrelle, just outside Saint-Just. It would be hard to imagine a more peaceful and secluded place to spend a relaxing holiday. Spend a day exploring beautiful Brantome with its abbey and riverboat trips, or discover fresh seasonal fruit and vegetables and quirky brocante finds at the nearby weekly market in Riberac. Take a woodland walk or eat lunch or dinner in one of the excellent local restaurants.

What makes this property unique

Although we are next door should you need anything, the gite is very private and situated around the corner from the main house so you will enjoy a peaceful and undisturbed holiday to relax by the pool or go for a gentle stroll around the woodland garden, taking in the beautiful views over the valley.
