The Atelier is an ancient stone barn with an interesting history. In the olden days, when the Church was an Abbey and the Monks lived in the building opposite, this barn was the carpentry workshop.
It is set back from a quiet lane just off the village square in the beautiful and picturesque medieval village of Tremolat which is on the Dordogne river between Sarlat and Bergerac.
It is perfectly placed to visit all the prehistoric sites, vineyards, chateaux and great restaurants which abound in this region and yet a peaceful retreat at the end of the day.
There is a 5.5m by 3.5m pool just off the terrace.
