共同スイミングプール、レストラン/小さな店に非常に近い素敵なアパート。

We are Evan and Katja Bouw. We are Dutch, but have lived in New Zealand from 2008 till 2015 where we established a passionfruit orchard. In 2011 our son Ryan was born. After 7 beautiful years we decided to return back to Europe to be closer to our family due to family circumstances. We have always loved the Dordogne and decided to move here.
After a long search we found our special place; Domaine Le Manoir. It is a 10ha estate in the small village of Fossemagne, about 10 km from Azerat. The previous owners have had it in their family for over 300 years and it is over 500 years old. According to the former owners it used to be the hunting lodge for the nearby Chateau Hautefort, and we do have copies of old documents that support that. It is a renovation project where we have 2 gites finished at the moment en want to create 2 more in the near future. We will always respect the privacy of our guests, but please don't hesitate to ask us any questions you may have..

The history of Maison Thérèse and appartement La Petite Épicerie, (Azerat):. It is build in the 17th century and much of the old building is still intact. It is listed in the monument care and used take an important place in the village of Azerat.
It used to be the only grocery/ bread shop in the village and surrounding area, When we bought it, the old village oven was included, it is located near by in a separate building and is about 4,5 mtr deep and it used to take a few days just to heat it slowly so that the stones wont crack.
From the apartment side you can also see a very old building, not in use at the moment. This used to be the family’s stables where the cows and sheep would live. Behind it is another old cellar where the family would make their wine.
De former owners are in their 80’s and still live in the village, they have had the building in their family for a very long time. They tell us the house and appartment was always loved very much by the family and there were always many beautiful flowers everywhere. In the welcome book on the table in the appartment are some old photo's of the building and family they gave us.We will always respect the privacy of our guests, but please don't hesitate to ask us any questions you may have..
