Beautiful 4 Bedroom Villa with Private Pool and Starlink WIFI

Marvol Rivière is a wonderful holiday home in such a pretty setting within walking distance of a historic village in northern Dordogne, close to the idyllic riverside town of Brantôme.

Positioned on the banks of the Dronne river, this home radiates so much French character and charm. The elegant living room is so inviting with its ornate fireplace and French windows opening out to the gardens whilst the traditional kitchen is brilliantly equipped to prepare feasts using all the amazing ingredients you are sure to pick up at local Dordogne markets. Upstairs, four attractive bedrooms include an impressive master with an en suite shower room as well as two further doubles and a twin sharing a good-sized family bathroom.

Outside it’s all about long lazy summer days playing on the large lawns at the front, admiring the lavender and fruit trees or seeking out the delightful little summer house. The 12m long swimming pool has its very own pool house as well as ample space for sun-lounging and al-fresco dining whilst there are two more gorgeous terraces in the back garden including one overlooking the river below. Indeed, beyond the shady trees you can see the banks of the Dronne in this lovely riverside setting.

Soak up the ambience of this typically Périgord location and wander to the local village with its historic lanes leading to a château and fortress. Dine out in one of the handful of restaurants or visit the atmospheric market on a Sunday morning, before finding your perfect picnic spot by the river. There are canoeing and kayaking opportunities within a short walk as well as horse-riding, cycling and hiking in the surrounding area.

Only 10km away, enjoy a meal out in one of the fine restaurants in Brantôme, also well-known for its glorious riverside setting, followed by a boat trip or perhaps a visit to its abbey and caves. Discover one of the region’s prettiest villages such as Aubeterre-sur-Dronne and Saint-Jean-de-Côle or peruse the fantastic Farmer’s markets in Riberac and Périgueux.

Whether seeking out some of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’, historic châteaux, fine foie gras or breathtaking landscapes and natural scenery, the Périgord Vert offers a wealth of experiences in this captivating part of northern Dordogne.
