Vacation rentals near Château de Marqueyssac

Lovely house in a spectacular location. Our second time staying there and can’t wait to go back again! Very well equipped and comfortable for extended stays.

Even more beautiful in real life than the photos, the heritage building and setting of this gite are both amazing! Inside, it is comfortable, spaceous and well-appointed. It was the perfect home base for our introduction to the Dordogne / Perigord Noir region; close to many of the major attractions. The idyllic nature of the gite was matched only by the warmth and attentiveness of the hosts, Chris and Lin! For example, when we took a wrong turn on our way to arriving at Sainte Mondane, Chris was very responsive by email and called us right away to offer help with directions. This stay was the perfect beginng to our trip to France to celebrate a significant wedding anniversary, and we would recommend it to anyone!

Best vacation rental we've ever had. The setting is intensely beautiful, the owners helpful and thoughtful, and the immediate area is stuffed with interesting sights.

It is hard to imagine a more beautiful place from the moment you turn off the main road into the village of Beynac. The walk up to the Chateau is a series of postcard picture opportunities of both the stone buildings and the spectacular views. We were very fortunate to be staying in the Mont Joie, which is a beautiful stone house with a view over the valley which almost doesn’t seem real. From this base there are many sites and activities that are easily accessible. Our recommended activities included taking a shuttle from Beynac to Vitrac and canoeing back to Beynac down river with a sop at La Roc Gageac for lunch and a walk through the beautiful village and gardens. Also highly recommended is an evening hot air balloon ride that can also be accessed from a shuttle at the Beynac village parking lot. Saturdays it is also highly recommended to go to the market in Sarlat la Caneda. Anther day excursion could be a drive ti Padirac to experience the caves and continue to the spectacular Rocamadour. Park at Hospitalet and take the pathway down to the touristy village and then take the hike up the former pilgrimage past the church of the black Madonna.

Four couples had a wonderful week. The property is outstanding and our hosts were excellent. There was nothing negative about our stay and we very highly recommend this property.

A great place to use as base to explore this beautiful area of France. Alexandra, the owner and Host was most gracious and very helpful. All in all a locally give.
