A 100 meter drive leads from the main D57 road to the manoir with plenty of parking to the left in front of the barn. Enter the tower on mostly 500 year old, well worn, stone spiral steps to the hall. The ground floor boasts 4m high beamed ceilings. The dining room retains original 16th century fireplace, the salon is dominated by an immense fireplace and displays hand painted ceiling beams. The kitchen is furnished with all the utensils, pots glasses, cups and dishes you'll need. Meals can be enjoyed in the kitchen, dining room, or on the patio with direct access from the kitchen and salon.
There are six large ensuite bedrooms, some of which retain 1970's style and show their age, yet are still comfortable by modern standards.
The 5m x 9m unheated swimming pool is about 40 meters from the house and open from May to September. Two walled gardens, one of which is gated and provides a contained space for children or pets to romp. Direct views of chateaux Marqueyssac, Castelnaud, and Beynac to the south and west await you, and you'll likely see hot air balloons in the mornings and evenings.
We are happy to offer advice for activities in the area, nature walks from the house, tourist sites, restaurants, and we are especially bicycling friendly.
Bakery, butcher, restaurants and convenience stores are within 3km at Beynac and Castelnaud while Supermarkets are just 8km away in Sarlat and 12km in St Cyprien. Linens, towels and beach towels, as well as end of week cleaning is included with the price.
We think that you will love it here so much you won't want to go home!
