Charming 18th Century Farmhouse with Beautiful View of Dordogne River Valley.

La Maison du Petit Roque is a delightful, rustic stone cottage, renovated for quiet summer holiday rentals. It is ideal for families or couples, peaceful and private. The cottage is set on the edge of a vineyard, in a large garden with fruit and nut trees. A spacious, sunny terrace, perfect for meals, BBQ, cocktails, offers panoramic views of the Dordogne valley. The comfortable kitchen has just been refurnished, and most appliances are brand new. The master bedroom has French doors opening to the covered terrace. The second bedroom offers traditional wrought iron twin beds. French doors from the living room open on to the main terrace. Indulge in an afternoon nap here or under a chestnut tree. Petit Roque is a 5 minute walk to a gastronomic restaurant, and only 5 minutes by car to local villages. The river - rent canoes or kayaks at the village - is just a 10 minute walk down the hill, as is the owner's property, where you are welcome for an afternoon swim at the family pool.
