About this property

PRIVATE POOL!! Sunset Cottage. With Stunning Views of the Chateau and the Valley

Welcome to one of our two lovingly restored holiday cottages. We’ve created a peaceful place where you can slow down, relax and enjoy the beautiful Dordogne countryside.

Tucked away at the end of a quiet lane, the cottage is wonderfully peaceful and private, yet ideally situated for exploring the Dordogne, with Sarlat, Les Eyzies, Montignac, Périgueux, Beynac and Domme all within easy reach.

For us, it’s the views that make this place truly special — especially the unforgettable sunsets over the valley and château.

Originally a barn, the cottage has been lovingly renovated to create a fresh, bright and comfortable space, while retaining some of its original rustic character, including the beautiful oak beams and woodwork. It has a light and welcoming feel and is well equipped with everything you’ll need for your stay.

The Cottage

The cottage has one large bedroom with a supersized American king-size bed. French doors open directly from the bedroom onto the private terrace and private pool.

The open-plan kitchen, living and dining area also opens directly onto the terrace and pool area. The comfortable living space includes a sofa and dining table, with the fitted kitchen providing:

* Gas hob
* Microwave
* Fridge
* Toaster
* Coffee machine
* Kettle

The bathroom includes a toilet, shower cubicle and washbasin.

The cottage also has a TV with UK satellite and French channels, and free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property and garden.

Outside

Set into the side of the valley, the cottage enjoys truly beautiful views from the terrace, overlooking the valley and château.

The private terrace and pool provide plenty of space to relax, unwind or enjoy an alfresco meal while taking in the view. Both the bedroom and living area open directly onto the terrace, making it easy to enjoy the peaceful surroundings throughout your stay.

Although wonderfully peaceful and private, the cottage is ideally located for exploring the Dordogne, with Sarlat, Les Eyzies, Montignac, Périgueux, Beynac and Domme all within easy reach.

Karen and Steve were great hosts they were there if you needed anything but otherwise left you to enjoy the peace and quiet of the surroundings. The cottage was ideally situated in the countryside but just a short walk from the village. We had a great week there.

The bed really is something else isn't it. I think because it is so big and also it is so quiet here too, no noise to keep people awake, makes for good long lie ins!! Thank you for sharing.

We had a wonderful stay, view was so beautiful at the chateau and the cows in front of us. Steve gave us good information about the surroundings, local information and good restaurants.A big plus is the swimming pool, perfect for cooling down...it was sometimes very hot. Both Steve and Karen were very friendly and helped us very well when we had a question.We can recommend them!Hans and Karin

Beautiful and calm

We spent 5 days last week and the little cortage is well located ! It is at the end of a country road with a wonderful view of the fields and a castle ! The place is very calm and peaceful. The cottage is nice, big enough for 2 people and a weekend. A special thank you to the host who's really nice and helpful and do her best to make you stay comfortable.

June Break

Beautiful location overlooking fields and forest, with a chateau across the valley. Within walking distance of Rouffignac, with supermarket, shops and restaurant. Fabulous places to visit nearby. Property flooded with light, very clean and size ample for two, although shower room on the small side. Pool great for the hot weather we had. Karen friendly and knowledgeable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks in the cottage. It is in beautiful surroundings and we loved watching the sun set from our terrace in the evening. It is within 10 minutes walking distance through a shady lane to the centre of the village and there is also a small supermarket and petrol station within 3 minutes drive. The cottage is centrally situated to access a wide variety of locations, all well worth seeing. The hosts were very friendly, happy to give ideas for visits and always ready to help, if needed. We were sad to leave.

Bulle d'évasion dans le Périgord Noir

Un lieu idéal pour un couple d'amoureux. Le gîte n'est pas immense mais il y a tout ce qu'il faut pour être bien. La chambre est la pièce la plus spacieuse. Seule la salle de douche manque sincèrement d'un peu d'espace. La décoration des pièces est simple et jolie : un vrai dépaysement à la campagne! L'extérieur est adorable : la maison est dévorée de plantes vertes et de fleurs. Et la vue sur les champs / les vaches / le château est somptueuse. Le calme est royal. La piscine est parfaite pour se raffraîchir. plein de choses à découvrir / voir / visiter alentour. Grande surface accessible à pieds! Seul bémol : je n'avais pas compris qu'il y avait le même gîte juste à côté. Pas du tout grave, mais je ne l'avais pas compris dans l'annonce et la promiscuité est réelle. Une belle adresse pour une douce parenthèse dans une région incroyable!

Au calme face à la nature

Petit gîte bien équipé et très agréable au bout d’une impasse au calme. La petite piscine privative est la bienvenue après les chaudes journées de balade. Karen la propriétaire Anglaise nous a même fait profiter des œufs extra frais de ses poules👍. Effectivement la salle d’eau est très petite mais on s’en contente. Très bon séjour pour une semaine d’intenses visites des magnifiques sites de Dordogne.

Le calme à l'état pur.

Si vous avez besoin de calme et besoin de décompresser alors foncez!! Tout est apaisant au cottage, paysage bucolique, les poules qui se promènent, les vaches qui s'invitent au p'tit déj. Karen est une hôte autant discrète que disponible, ce cottage est aménagé avec goût et les oeufs retrouvés sur la table étaient un pur délice. Un très bel endroit à retenir.

Belle location dans le Périgord noir

Très belle location avec une vue splendide et dégagée ! Deux gîtes l'un à côté de l'autre, séparé par des haies végétales. Chaque gîte dispose de sa petite piscine privée. Transats et table extérieure très appréciés. Salle de bain en effet très petite mais convient tout de même pour une semaine. Chambre immense avec un très grand lit et une literie d'excellente qualité. Un logement parfait pour un couple en recherche de tranquillité. Beaucoup de sites aux environs. Le village de Rouffignac est petit mais dispose de tout ce qu'il faut : marché le dimanche matin, boulangerie et un Carrefour contact ouvert de 8h à 20h. Je recommande !

About the host

Hosted by Karen

Host profile image
Over the years, lots of people have asked us why we decided to move to France. The only answer we’ve ever really been able to come up with is that we simply fancied a bit of a change. And, honestly, that was about it.

At the time, we knew very little about the country or its people. We naively thought, *“How different can it be? It’s only across the Channel.”* Stupid, right?

But that was a long time ago. Twenty years later, here we are, living in a part of the world that really is quite extraordinary.

Even after all this time, the scenery can still take our breath away. We enjoy some of the best food and wine in the world, have the space to raise our own animals, and have settled into country life in a way we never could have imagined when we first arrived.

But most of all, it’s the quiet that makes such a difference.

Whether it’s a warm summer morning or a crisp winter’s day, there is always a sense of peace here. No traffic, no hustle and bustle — just the sounds of the countryside and, very often, nothing at all.

It’s a way of life we’ve come to love, and one we feel very lucky to have found.

But don’t just take our word for it… come and experience it for yourself.

Why they chose this property

What makes this property truly special is the spectacular view and the luxury of having your own private pool.

Imagine sitting on the terrace on a warm summer evening, enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets over the valley and château. It’s the kind of peaceful, beautiful moment that creates holiday memories to treasure long after you’ve returned home.

What makes this property unique

What makes this cottage truly unique is the combination of peace, privacy, spectacular views and your own private pool. Having a private pool is a wonderful feature for a two-person cottage, giving you the luxury and privacy of your own pool while still enjoying the intimacy and charm of a smaller property.
