About this property

'Le Verger' is a charming and comfortable old stone house (120 sq.m.) set in its own gardens with views onto the rolling Dordogne-Perigord countryside. The attic bedrooms feature original beams and stone walls. The front south facing terrace is ideal for barbecues and there is a large 6 m x 6 m family room at the rear of the house, with 6 French windows looking onto the beautiful quiet gardens.
Nearby horse riding, lake, ideal for walks and bird watching, within reach of the prehistoric wall art of the Lascaux caves, and the famous Dordogne villages (Sarlat, Les Eyzies). 'Le Verger' is situated at the meeting point of three French departments (Dordogne, Correze and Haute Vienne), all fascinatingly different in their landscape, building style, history and gastronomy.
SATURDAY to SATURDAY bookings only in July and August. Cleaning is £80. NO BED LINEN OR TOWELS PROVIDED _ PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN.

Logement rustique adapté pour 2 couples avec 2 enfants, le logement mériterait quelques rafraichissements. Extérieure plus que correcte et terrasse couverte plus qu'agréable. Dans l'ensemble, nous avons passé un bon séjour.

La maison est charmante dans un endroit très paisible

Nous avons séjourné avec trois enfants et le chien. La maison est entourée de champs dans lesquels nous avons pu courir et cueillir des mûres. La terrasse est grande et ombragée juste comme il faut! Nous avons adoré aller à la rivière aux forges tout près: se baigner, pêcher l'écrevisse, chercher de l'or... Il faut prendre la voiture pour la plupart des activités mais il y a une multitude de choses à faire à quelques kilomètres. Nous reviendrons en Dordogne!

Beautiful stone house in the country

Comfortable rooms and a perfect house for 2 families. New decking got the morning sun so breakfast on the deck and the front garden, patio and BBQ got the evening sun - perfection! A lovely (unless you don't like hills) cycle in the country to get the bread and croissants every day. Lac du Rouffiac was idyllic but there are plenty of lovely lakes within a short drive and on route to some very pretty and interesting towns.
