About this property
Rural character cottage, recently restored, with pool and secluded garden
A recently restored spacious stone cottage in the centre of a hamlet, ideally situated for quiet relaxing days in the secluded garden, by the swimming pool or walking/cycling through the surrounding countryside. It is a short 5 mins drive to the cafes and restaurants of the nearby Dordogne town of Riberac. There you will find the market square with fountains, cafes and the bustling Friday morning market, one of the largest in the region. The hamlet is surrounded by agricultural land, woods and magnificent views, plus numerous marked walks. The lively market town of Perigueux is 40 minutes away, Bergerac with its vineyards and international airport 1 hour away. Bordeaux, only 90-120 minutes away, with its historical buildings, museums, bustling town life and river.

About the host
Hosted by Dawn Keddie
Paul and I moved to the Dordogne in 2020 after 10 years in the Vosges Mountains, N.E. France, where we successfully welcomed guests into our holiday rental for many years. We know how important holidays are and we aim to make your holiday in the Dordogne as happy as possible by providing accommodation that is clean, well-equipped and comfortable. We are here to help and provide information and love a chat if that's what you want. If it's peace, quiet and privacy then we will leave you alone to enjoy the privacy that the gite provides. The garden is private and the gite is not overlooked. From the front door there are plenty of tracks for walking or country lanes for cycling.
Why they chose this property
We live in a hamlet of around 12 houses surrounded by fields, woods and working farms. Our swimming pool overlooks the valley below and has the most fantastic view. The setting is private and peaceful, rural but only 4kms from the market town of Riberac with its cafes, restaurants, supermarkets, shops, Friday market, banks, pharmacy etc. In the holiday season there are plenty of activities - sports, brocantes, evening markets with supper and evening walks, music festivals and local open garden days, village fetes, chateaux to visit, vineyards and wine tasting and much more. Famous for its rivers, there are canoe centres at most of the towns alongside these rivers, beautiful walks and fishing.
What makes this property unique
We like to think that our gite is homely and provides you with everything you need for a well-earned holiday. Living on the premises we are available, should you need us, whether it's information on the best restaurants, doctors, good local walks for your dog or playgrounds for your children.
There is a fully enclosed garden with patio furniture which leads direct from the kitchen. A short walk alongside the rose walkway takes you to the the heated, salt swimming pool. The pool is private with pool furniture provided and has a beautiful view over the valley. Our friendly neighbour recently built a boule terrain and welcomes use by ourselves and our gite guests.
