Holiday home Montravel is located on the domain of Les Magnolias.

Holiday home Montravel is part of a former 18th century wine and tobacco warehouse. The warehouse was supplied from the nearby harbor by Gabarres (= traditional Dordogne flat-bottomed boat). This holiday home is south-facing on the Dordogne River and consists of a separate living room with “open kitchen” and two bedrooms with clean and ironed sheets. There is a bedroom with 2 x single bed (0.90 x 1.90 meters) and a master bedroom with a comfortable box spring bed (1.60 x 2.00 meters).

The salon has a sofa, two comfortable armchairs and a dining table with 4 chairs. A luxurious bathroom with bath, rain shower and bathroom furniture with sink and a separate toilet complete the picture. Through the salon door you have access to your own very private sun terrace (50m2) with patio furniture, parasol and a wide view over the Dordogne river.
