Les Tilleuls 2 rural cottages close to Hautefort France
Prices from €400 per Week
Situated in a small rural hamlet on a hillside overlooking the Auvezere valley and surrounded by woods and meadows are two gites, tastefully converted from an old stone barn. They make the perfect location for those in search of peace and quiet, but they also provide an ideal location for visiting the many attractions of the Perigord - the prehistoric sites of the Vezere valley including Lascaux and Rouffignac, the medieval cities of Perigueux and Sarlat, the wine growing regions of Bergerac and Bordeaux, the numerous chateaux and bastide towns, the beautiful Dordogne river with its picturesque riverside towns and villages. The Perigord is justly famed for its cuisine, with many recipes using the local produce of foie gras, duck, truffles, walnuts and complemented by the regional wines - Bergerac, Monbazillac, Pecharmant and Duras. There are numerous small family run restaurants in the area and menus for a 5 course meal cost from around 11 Euros.
Tourtoirac is the nearest village ( 2 km) and has a boulangerie, butcher, post office, small supermarket, hotel with bar/tabac and a tourist office in the summer. Hautefort with its impressive chateau is only 6 km distance. There are local weekly markets in Excideuil (10 km), Thenon (15 km) and Perigueux (39km) as well as a small weekly market in Hautefort (6 km).
The cottages are converted from a long stone barn, set well back from the quiet lane.
Each gite has its own private garden area with barbecue and patio furniture. Inside they are characterised by beamed ceilings, cottage style bedrooms and enjoy comfortable living rooms and well-equipped kitchens. The gites share the rest of the garden and the fenced 13 x 5m swimming pool, ideally positioned to enjoy the sun throughout the day and provided with parasols and plenty of sun-loungers for all. The pool, loungers and surround are cleaned daily by the owners who live in a small house adjacent to the gites. Flowering shrubs and plants around the pool encourage a large variety of butterflies, some familiar, some not so familiar. For the energetic there is outdoor table-tennis or badminton. Set under a large walnut tree reclining chairs and a bistro table offer the perfect shady spot to relax and perhaps enjoy a glass of wine.
