Beautiful conversion of a detached Perigourdine stone barn in extensive grounds
This is one of 4 ancient properties in a little hamlet. It is peaceful and rural and yet close to the medieval village of Issigeac with its popular Sunday market. The barn has been immaculately converted (in 2005) by the owners who live in the Perigourdine house next door. The spacious open plan living area has mellow exposed stone walls and tiled floors. There is comfortable seating, a dining table and a well equipped kitchen. The master bedroom is downstairs with a separate shower room and a toilet. There is a cot stored in the laundry room. Upstairs, the second double bedroom and the twin room have exposed beams and share a shower room with toilet. The property is very well kept and fresh. Outside there is a private pool surrounded by a terrace; There are lawns, a lake and poplar trees. The outdoor furniture can be used on the terrace, on the little beach by the lake, or in a covered games room. There are lovely views over the arable fields and woods and the bird life is abundant.

We are situated in rolling farmland, 5km from the medieval village of Issigeac with restaurants, all facilities and a bustling Sunday market. We are ideally placed for visiting the beautiful towns of Bergerac, Sarlat, Lalinde, La Roque Gageac and Beynac (along the Dordogne river), the prehistoric caves at Eyzies, and the historic bastide towns to the south and east. The region is known as Purple Perigord because of the vineyards and the famous Monbazillac chateau is close by. The wine centre of St. Emilion is a wonderful town to visit and is the gateway to all the wine country to the west. Bordeaux and the seaside at Arcachon can be visited on a day trip. The area is renowned for good local produce which includes foie gras, duck confit, asparagus and cepes. The fruit and vegetable markets are a treat. An added bonus of our location is that the airport of Bergerac (RyanAir / Flybe) is only 15min away on country roads so your holiday starts as soon as you leave the airport.
Local activities swimming, tennis, walking, cycling, fishing, horse riding, golf, paragliding
