Authentic ''Borie of Le Cause'' stone -built and roofed in Périgord Noir
The "borie of Le Cause" is a unique and unusual building, stone-built and roofed following the tradition of dry-stone structures used by shepherds and wine-growers...as can be found in the country under the name of "gariotte" or "borie" according to the region. It has an 8 shaped structure, offers all conveniences... and looks as if it had been always been sitting here. The "borie" sits in peaceful and relaxing surroundings. Next to it a garden of trimmed box treees nests the swimming pool.

We stayed for 2 glorious weeks in the fabulous Borie de la Cause. We wish we could have stayed longer.The peace and tranquility of the location, but within a few minute drive of a delightful small town, is perfect. Surrounded by nature with birds & butterflies, deer & hares to enjoy. We wondered at the brilliance of the stars in the dark sky.It is situated close to many prehistoric sites with many beautiful gardens to visit.The cabine has been lovingly hand built by Jean-Paul and Annie with so many artisanal features to discover, all incorporated in such a comfortable little house, with everthing you need. The private pool was exceptional, always clean and welcoming in the afternoon heat.Annie & Jean-Paul are wonderful and generous hosts, we hope we can return to enjoy the delights of this very special and charming place.
A beautiful and unique place to stay in a stunning part of France. We spent a week with our dog, and wished we'd been able to stay for longer. Annie and Jean- Paul were helpful and responsive both before and during our stay, even inviting us for an aperitif on one of the evenings. A wonderful place that we would highly recommend.
Perfect location, everything we needed at the property for our stay, due to fantastic weather the pool was well used as was the bbq! Annie are Simon were welcoming hosts. The pretty town of Le Bugue was only 20 mins away, plenty of supermarkets. So much to see and do without driving for miles, we had a perfect relaxing week, even the dog was chilled 🐕 xx
We arrived after a long drive to be greeted by the charming owner, Annie, who settled us in to the gîte.
The Bourie is the most enchanting home, built by Annie’s husband Jean Paul who is a Master Maconiere. The standard of workmanship is truly remarkable and provides a snug and homely accommodation, surrounded by a lovely garden and overlooking acres of woodland. If you’re in need of a ‘get away from it all’ holiday then this is perfect for you - in the evenings there was barely a sound to be heard.
The local town of Le Bugue has a number of friendly bars and plenty of shops providing regional food and drink and is a 10 minute drive away (we used our bikes most days) and there is plenty to do and see in the area.
The Bourie has a very basic kitchen so take a sharp knife and any other essential equipment you need - we barbecued most days (in the excellent one carved by Jean Paul!).
Access to the bedroom is via a steep spiral staircase which some may find a bit of a challenge if you have mobility issues so worth bearing in mind. The gîte is quirky and simply furnished and it felt like a step back in time, which was wonderful
The swimming pool is beautiful and spotlessly clean.
Annie and Jean Paul are the most charming and helpful hosts you could possibly want - they made us feel completely at home without ever intruding.
Grossartige Umgebung mit vielen Entdeckungsmöglichkeiten. Und dann zurück zum Steinhäuschen und zu einem kühlenden Bad im gepflegten Pool. Entspannung pur.
Annie und Jean-Paul sind liebenswürdige, hilfsbereite Gastgeber mit vielen guten Tipps. Danke vielmal.
Das wunderschöne Steinhaus hat uns fasziniert. Die Lage und Umgebung waren märchenhaft. Annie und Jean-Paul sind sehr herzliche und liebenswerte Menschen, die wir auf jeden Fall wieder besuchen werden. Der Abschied fiel uns schwer.
Super expérience dans la cabane, au calme dans la campagne. Nous avons bien profité de la piscine. Accueil très chaleureux de Annie et Jean Paul qui nous ont partagé leur passion des traditions du Périgord. Nous avons fait de très belles visites et découvert une région magnifique. Le temps était très très chaud pour un début septembre 👍
Malgré la canicule nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour chez Annie et Jean Paul. La chaleur de leur accueil, leur gentillesse, leurs attentions et leur discrétion y ont beaucoup contribué. Le lieu est magnifique et très bien situé pour les visites. La piscine vraiment superbe en pleine nature et d'une propreté irréprochable !
Merci encore à Annie et Jean Paul pour ces bons moments.
Nous espérons avoir l'occasion de revenir (mais avec une chaleur raisonnable).
La petite borie charmante a une très belle piscine très propre. Les hôtes sont très discrets et très accueillants. Nous avons passé de bonnes vacances dans cette belle région. Le gite est modeste. Le ciel le soir: le bonheur!
Was für ein besonderes und wunderschönes Ferienhaus!! Idylle pur zum Entspannen und Durchatmen! Im Häuschen ist alles da, was man im Urlaub braucht. Den Pool haben wir gerne genutzt, um uns nach unseren Ausflügen abzukühlen und wieder zu erholen. Die Gegend ist voller wunderschöner Ausflugsziele. Wir hatten noch einiges auf dem Zettel, war in einer Woche aber gar nicht alles zu schaffen. Ein herzliches Dankeschön an die netten Vermieter Annie und Jean-Paul. Wir werden euer ganz spezielles und schönes Häuschen tüchtig weiter empfehlen.
Propriétaires très sympathiques, belle location correspondant tout à fait à l'annonce, le ++ la superbe piscine. Et quelle belle région, nous reviendrons sans doute vous voir avec plaisir. B et Y
Ruhe und Musse sind im charmanten Cabane mit dem gut gepflegten Pool garantiert. Die herzlichen Gastgeber sind sehr hilfreich. Die geschichtsträchtige Umgebung lädt zu vielen Entdeckungen ein. Einfach wunderbar. Ein kleines Paradies.
A big thank you to Annie and Jean Paul for their warm welcome and pointers for places to go and visit. This is a super, traditional rustic building, built be Jean Paul. Don't expect all the latest mod-cons but there's all you need to be perfectly comfortable while you enjoy the peace (crickets aside) of rural France. Looking forward to visiting again soon.
