Set within ten hectares of meadows and woodland, the Domaine enjoys a wonderfully peaceful setting close to a charming village and the banks of the Dordogne, yet is perfectly positioned for exploring the highlights of the Périgord Noir. Just over ten minutes from the historic town of Sarlat-la-Canéda, this exceptional property offers privacy, beauty and a rare sense of space.

A long private driveway winds its way through ancient oak trees before revealing the elegant façade of this historic residence, built from pale Périgord stone and framed by soft blue shutters. Inside the gated courtyard, a gently trickling fountain, a traditional stone borie and terracotta pots of citrus trees create an atmosphere that feels almost Provençal. Once a noble residence more than two centuries ago, the house has been beautifully renovated and now combines authentic character with high-end comfort, all in the heart of the Périgord Noir.

The house sleeps up to twelve guests across six air-conditioned bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed with quality bedding, refined tiled floors and private bath or shower rooms. The spacious living areas are equally impressive: a vast lounge with exposed beams, frescoed walls and a library of old books, a dedicated reading nook for children upstairs, an elegant dining room and a contemporary, fully equipped kitchen. For those wishing to stay active or work remotely, there is also a professionally equipped gym with air-conditioning and TV, as well as a generous office space and WIFI throughout.
