About this property

Stylish, 1830s Stone Barn on13 acres, 20 mins Sarlat. Relaxing and private

Imagine the gently sloping rim of a shallow tea cup saucer. This 1830s renovated stone barn, an 8 minute walk to the Dordogne River, sits on the edge of that rim, oriented south/southwest, a large entry courtyard, overlooking a hidden garden, with views over its own little valley. Along the south side of the entire length of the building (72 feet), French doors and large windows flood the rooms with light throughout the day. The intimate valley, over 13 rolling acres, looks across to an abandoned farm, where sheep still graze daily. Silence, sunlight, and incredible starry nights are pretty much your only neighbors. Not a typical renovation (which often chops up the rhythm of a space to maximize the number of bedrooms), this property was designed with great care and planning to preserve its architectural authenticity, integrity and flow. The high ceiling (25+ ft) timber framed spaces naturally dictate how the room arrangements flow. Especially gorgeous during the off seasons. Heaven!

Peaceful country stay

We had a very nice, relaxing stay at The Barn. The property is very spacious with a nice outdoor space for enjoying the peace and quiet and views of the surrounding nature. The kitchen contains everything one needs, including large gas stove and oven for cooking and there is an outdoor charcoal grill. There are some minor quirks to the build given the age of the building, but that comes with the old country house charm. There were some problems with wifi during our stay but the owner was quick to respond and sort out with the Telco provider. Since we were traveling around the area during the day and had mobile data packages it didn't detract from enjoying our stay. Overall we loved the Dordogne region and really enjoyed our stay at The Barn.... we would definitely stay again!

Tranquillité absolue dans cette grange en pleine campagne

Une grande maison facile à vivre au milieu d'une prairie , belle cuisine et terrasse .avec vue .Chambres à la fois raffinées et rustiques . Bémol : contrairement à ce que disait l'annonce , pas d'Internet , télevision par cable seulement anglo-saxonne , televiseur très ancien , lecteur CD cassé ...mais le charme des lieux opère et la propriétaire très reactive communique plein d'informations ..

This is an utterly charming property!

Our stay rates 5 stars! House is charming and charmingly idiosyncratic, beautifully furnished (but not over-furnished), clean to a T, and more than well appointed – modern, functioning stove, fridge, showers, etc. Beds comfortable, linens clean and crisp. We even had a lovely bouquet of flowers on the kitchen table to greet us! All in all, it was better than the listing description. And Souillac is only 10 minutes away.If you have the opportunity to spend a week or so there, take it: just to sit on the terrace under the walnut tree looking out over the fields as you sip a pastis in the late afternoon is worth what you'll spend... We'd go back tomorrow if we could!

Originell ausgebaute Scheuer in traumhafter Umgebung

In leicht erhöhter Lage über der Dordogne liegt die ehemalige Scheuer, die als Ferienhaus umgebaut ist. in der Nähe sind 3 Ferienhäuser, Die Umgebung ist sehr ruhig, rundum Natur. Das Haus ist originell umgebaut und liebevoll ausgestattet mir ländlichen Antiquitäten. Nur ein Schlafzimmer ist mir einer Türe abgetrennt, das zweite Schlafzimmer ist galeriartig und der Zugang zum Wohnbereich durch einen Vorhang abgetrennt. Die Platzverhältnisse sind grosszügig, es hat einen grossen offenen Kamin. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet mit grossen Kühlschrank/Gefrierabteil, Spülmaschine, Mikrowelle etc. Sehr einfach ist das Gebrauchsmobiliar (Betten, Stühle in der Küche, Geschirr) Plastik Stühle als Gartenmobiliar, wackliger Tisch. Liegestühle sind zusammengeklappt und in einem Abstellraum so verkeilt, dass sie nur schwer brauchbar sind. Insgesamt ist die Ausstattung liebevoll, originell aber eher einfach. Störend ist die häusliche Geräuschkulisse, zumindest wahrscheinlich im Sommer, das offene Dachgebälk knackt lautstark vor allem nachts und ist vom Hausbock befallen, was ebenfalls andauernd schabende Frassgeräusche verursacht, dies ist zumindest gewöhnungsbedürftig. Das Haus war sauber. Mit der Hausreinigung in Ferienmitte hat es nicht geklappt. Die Vermieterin lebt weit weg, war sehr bemüht uns mit Informationen und guten Hinweisen zu versorgen, der Kontakt per Mail war sehr sympathisch. Wir hatten sehr schöne Sommerferien und denken gerne daran zurück, aber ich finde das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt nicht.

Peaceful and lovely renovation

Upon arrival we found the property to be spotlessly clean, comfortable and very attractive. The barn was the perfect place to explore the region - castles, gardens, markets, caves, 13th century mill built by monks...and at the end of each day a glass of wine as we discussed our outings. One week was not enough; next time we plan to spend more time "at home", walking, lounging and enjoying the serene beauty of this amazing place.

A magical place to stay, beautifully designed.

Staying in this beautiful Barn was a dream come true, I have always loved the concept of a barn conversion and to experience this well designed artistically executed property was a delight. The place was immaculate and super clean on arrival, every detail had been catered for. We stayed for a week in January and enjoyed cosy evenings around a roaring log fire. The owner is so helpful down to the last degree when organising the holiday and her staff could not have been more pleasant. This area of the Dordoigne is a firm favourite with my family, we have been visiting for the past twenty five years. Staying in the Barn just exceeded all our expectations and gave us a new level of enjoyment. Thank you.

Perfection from every aspect

There is always a special pleasure for those who travel frequently, when we find that everything we hoped we would find is as described yet well beyond our expectations. The Barn is one such place! Immaculate spacious facilities with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Despite the excellent photographs and descriptions of the barn what can't be described is the deep satisfaction the ambience and design of this place provides your soul. So rare in this age to step back into that warm feeling of waking up in the morning as a child on a summer day new fresh and happy. Spectacular in the most simple fashion.

About the host

Hosted by Leslee

Host profile image
I am a very active Francophile, designer, photographer and a teacher. I try to spend as much time as possible in France, in my beloved stone barn. I renovated the barn from scratch. Dirt floors, stone walls! It was a great learning experience It firmly 'cemented' the area in my heart. I love the barn. It is my spiritual home. It is filled with light and is very calming. Nothing makes me happier than to spend time there. Everyone who enters comments on the calming quality of the place; this without any prompting from me. You can walk to the Dordogne or bike along its shores directly from the house. Two towns are within minutes to supply you with everything you need, including two weekly markets. The area close to the barn abounds in things to explore and discover. Sunsets! Come and see!

Why they chose this property

I had visited the region regularly since 1983 and was completely taken with it. The pure simplicity and natural beauty spoke to me. I have friends in the region who have been there for over 40 years, so I was immediately immersed in vrai France, one filled with the everyday lifestyle of the French. This had a big influence on me and continues to this day. I love the area because I love being outdoors. I spend most of my free time hiking with friends and punctuating the hikes with either great picnics or terrific well deserved lunches out. There is so much to see! The biking is also stellar and not too difficult. The area appears remote and has many remote qualities but has every amenity one could hope for. The markets continue to thrill me, and I never miss a visit to one.

What makes this property unique

Serenity and Respite! Hiking, biking, canoeing, markets, gardens,history, vide greniers, cooking, outings with friends, Met HD opera 20 minutes away in Sarlat! All modern conveniences within 10 minutes of the house, yet the house is a world away. The house is designed in a very open plan so that there is lots of light and privacy yet open space through out. There are fabulous gardens and incredible towns and villages to visit, all easily accessed from the house. And when one returns in the early evening, nothing satisfies like a glass of cold rose, while sitting on the terrace enjoying the private view of the hidden valley.
