“The property had everything you could need (including a welcome gift of wine and eggs!) Vanessa was the perfect host and communication was very clear. It's great location for exploring the Dordogne. Highly recommended. Keith and Sue”

About our home
***Please note, as the gites are a small family business we cannot accept swaps in high (summer) season. Please don't enquire for stays during JULY and AUGUST./ Veuillez noter que les gîtes étant une petite entreprise familiale, nous ne pouvons pas accepter les échanges en haute saison (estivale). Veuillez ne pas vous renseigner pour les séjours en JUILLET et AOUT. ***
One of two rustic gites in the French countryside - a former barn now beautifully converted, with access to a swimming pool, sauna and many walking trails both on and around the property. We have 6ha of woodland, wildflower meadows, vegetable gardens, an orchard and animals - horses, chickens, cats and dogs. We are designing the property as an organic permaculture small holding and live here in multiple residences as an extended family. We also have a restaurant on site (my husband is the chef) so if we are in residence during your stay we can offer you gourmet food on the doorstep too. Close to Bergerac airport (20 mins) and many beautiful surrounding villages, markets and other attractions.
La Grange has a private terrace and garden area, overlooking the horses. The front door leads into a sitting room with TV/DVD and sliding doors to a second sitting room with stereo, shelves with books and board games. This second sitting room can be converted into a twin bedroom. A step down leads into the dining room (seats 8) and adjacent fully equipped kitchen. A corridor leads to the master double bedroom with bathroom adjacent and operate loo.
Upstairs has a twin bedroom, a second double bedroom and another bathroom/laundry also with separate loo.

“Nous avons particulièrement apprécié notre rencontre avec Vincent (et sa famille), C'est un hôte agréable et prévenant avec lequel nous avons eu plaisir à discuter. Nous avons beaucoup aimé le charme de la propriété en pleine nature mais à quelques kilomètres de magnifiques sites et villages. Et la demeure est tout confort . Nous recommandons un échange avec cette sympathique famille.”
“Vanessa et sa famille étaient des invités parfaits, très à l'écoute et respectueux du lieu. Même la neige était au rendez-vous pour eux, je suis ravie d'avoir pu les accueillir ! A une prochaine fois avec grand plaisir.”
“We were away at the time that Vanessa visited but our friend who looks after the house said they were good guest. ”

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
At the end of a private road, enclosed in a valley with no adjacent neighbours, we are set in a peaceful location - zero traffic noise, no light pollution - incredible stars! The nearest village is very sleepy, but the closest towns (Beaumont-du-Perigord and Issigeac) have all facilities and are within 10 minutes drive. We are only 20 minutes from Bergerac and the airport. The Dordogne is full of beautiful villages, vineyards, prehistoric caves, chateaus and amazing places to visit.
