About this property
Cozy Medieval Village House in Domme, Dordogne
Picture yourself waking up in this two-bedroom, two-bath, 14th century house! Domme, a wonderful medieval bastide town in Southwest France, holds the honor of being voted one of France's most beautiful villages. Ideally situated on a quiet street, this charming stone house--'La Belle Petite Maison'--and streetscape appeared on the cover of Travel + Leisure magazine in 2003 for a cover story entitled “The Heart of French Country.” The house has been furnished using a mixture of both antique and new French oak furniture.
Dine in the kitchen at the large table or enjoy outdoor dining just out the glass door which opens onto the very private garden patio. In the second floor salon, a glass door leads to a lovely balcony with table and chairs, providing a stunning view of the ancient Delbos gate, and the hills to the South. The balcony makes a lovely spot to relax and enjoy coffee, tea, or an apero.
Given the location of the house within Domme, visitors can easily walk to the tourism office, the cave, gardens, wonderful restaurants and shops—as well as enjoy the village market on Thursday mornings! Fresh croissants for breakfast are only a few steps away. Stroll along the esplanade in the evening to watch the sun set over the valley below or walk the ancient ramparts around the village.
Domme provides an ideal location to visit the Dordogne’s many places of interest such as the numerous chateaux, prehistoric caves, spectacular gardens, museums, churches, villages and artisan’s studios--all an easy day-trip away!

About the host
Hosted by Stephany Madsen
Domme is a lovely village for strolling almost any time of day or evening. Lovely gardens, charming old homes, delicious restaurants, and special shops all beckon. Buzz and his wife Stephany have never tired of walking the streets and lanes of Domme in nearly 20 years!
Why they chose this property
In May of 2005, my husband and I finally returned to Europe after an absence of nearly 20 years. Neither of us would have imagined 20 years ago that our return would be to Southwest France—we would have been certain that it would be to Cornwall or Denmark (both homes of our ancestors). In the fall of 2004, we received a travel brochure from one of the universities I attended which invited me to join a tour of village life in France. I was stunned by the beauty of the photos. I was compelled. I was also sure that we did not want to be loaded on to buses morning and evening to be trotted about the countryside. But I was sure that we must see Southwest France, the Dordogne, Perigord Noir—all quite unfamiliar to us.
With an adventurous spirit and the Internet at our fingertips, we booked ourselves nearly three weeks in France, ending in Paris, of course! But we spent two weeks in Sarlat-la-Caneda near Domme. Each day was more awesome and beautiful than the last. It took our breath away. The history! The food! The French people! The wine! The extraordinary natural beauty…. The place had utterly captured us. We returned to France in the fall and found this lovely village house!
What makes this property unique
Great local restaurants and shops within walking distance of the house (the entire village is in walking distance). Excellent wine recommendations from the local merchants. Fresh bread, elegant pastries and croissants every day. (Please say 'bonjour' or 'bonsoir' when you enter any village--or any French--business!) Enjoy the local market in the Place de la Halle on Thursdays, plus large markets in Sarlat (Wednesdays and Saturdays) and St. Cyprien on Sunday morning. Fresh fish at the market in Cenac on Tuesday mornings! My husband says the oysters are the best in the world. Canoe or kayak on the Dordogne. Tour gardens and castles. Indulge in a wonderful selection of places to visit and things to do within easy day trips from Domme. Relax on the terrace at sunset with a fine glass of local wine!
