Country Cottage with private recreational lake, child friendly, pets welcome

Planning a Dordogne Vacation we have a lovely self-catering holiday cottage situated on a mini estate in a secluded, elevated position with panoramic views of the picturesque, undulating Périgord Vert countryside. The perfect place for a lovely family holiday. A tranquil and rural setting with a child friendly garden area leading immediately from the front and rear doors of the cottage. Bring your dog as well. Uniquely we are able to offer guests the use of probably one of the largest private 'swimming pools' in the Dordogne. A totally pollution and chemical free private swimming and fishing lake. The lake nestles in a sheltered location, just a short stroll from the cottage across our land, and has a swimming pier and shaded areas for comfort on hot days. A boat to laze around in. Watch the swallows feed in the early evening and keep an eye open for the kingfishers. A wonderfully tranquil environment. A real 'get away from it all' location. E-mail us for our web site details.

Comfortable Accommodation

The property has been restored to the highest standard, retaining the original features and using old materials wherever possible. Oak-beamed throughout with a stone fireplace, farmhouse doors, picture lights, ceiling fan and wood-burning stove in the kitchen/living area. All bedrooms are wood-panelled with picture lights and ceiling fans. Each room has been tastefully decorated and furnished with an eye for detail, comfort and practicality.

Facilities

The appeal of the property is in its idyllic setting with the unique feature of having its own private lake - a totally natural environment. The lake is over 2 acres in size and a short stroll from the cottage. Lovely for swimming in during the summer months, the water fresh running. For keen fishermen it is also well-stocked with roach, rudd, tench, perch and carp. Swim and fish from the piers, or use the rowing boat. A location to suit all tastes. Ideal for the perfect family holiday; very safe for children, for adults, a place to relax and unwind in a rejuvenating environment. Walk, cycle, or ride a horse on quiet country roads.

Convenient Location

Although a wonderfully quiet, country location, the village is just 2.5km from the main N21 (Route Nationale) at La Coquille. Making it such a convenient base from which to go sightseeing, property hunting or wine tasting. A perfect spring-board for the regions of the Dordogne and Limousin. There are golf courses open to the public at Limoges and Périgueux. If not all your party can be accommodated in the cottage then we can offer bed and breakfast at our house, which is 300 meters up the road from the cottage, with three double bedrooms each with private bathrooms. We welcome groups and can offer the facility of an optional evening meal. Being in the heart of the Regional Natural Park of the Perigord-Limousin there are numerous well-marked country walks, bridal paths and cycle tracks. Riding stables are nearby and cycle hire. An ideal location for touring groups and we're happy to quote for a group rate.

Other Activities Go-Karting; Gold panning, Canoeing, Adventure Obstacle Course, Eco centre.

Comments from Owner Guestbook

'It's a superb location, tranquil with stunning views and lovely accommodation. The children loved the lake, swimming and fishing and messing about in the boat.' Jemima Lawrence.
'We had a wonderful week. Just what my wife and I needed. A rest, peace and tranquillity. The accommodation was very comfortable and I really enjoyed fishing again, something I haven't done for years. A Creed.
'The cottage was a total surprise to us, so attractive, inviting, and very tastefully decorated. For the family, all city dwellers, the panoramic view of the countryside and peaceful environment has been so recuperative.' A great holiday away from it all'. Simon Propper.
