About this property
Hilltop Cottage with Pool
Escape to a beautifully restored Périgord-style cottage nestled within the prestigious Domaine d'Essendiéras in Saint-Médard-d'Excideuil. Perched in the rolling hills of Dordogne, this charming retreat offers stunning views over lush valleys and historic castles. Enjoy the ultimate blend of comfort and countryside charm with a private, heated pool (fenced for safety), sun loungers for lazy afternoons, and a large terrace ideal for al fresco dining.
Guests can unwind in the tranquil garden or enjoy family-friendly fun with shared access to a tennis court, boules court, trampoline, and play equipment. A high chair and children’s bed are available on request, making it a convenient choice for families. On-site dining means great meals are just steps away, and local cafés and restaurants in Excideuil (5 km away) offer traditional Dordogne fare, including regional specialties like foie gras and truffles.
This region is a cultural treasure trove—explore the famous Lascaux Caves, Château de Hautefort, and the prehistoric wonders of the Vézère Valley. Don’t miss nearby towns like Périgueux and Brantôme, rich with history and architecture.
Pet lovers will appreciate the welcoming policy—dogs can join you at Les Grottes De Presque, just a scenic drive away. Discover magical cave formations alongside your leashed companion on a guided 40-minute tour through a spectacular subterranean world.
Whether you're looking to explore, relax, or reconnect with nature, this cottage offers an unforgettable Dordogne experience for guests of all ages—including four-legged ones.
