La Libellule - 3 Bedroom (Sleeps 5) Apartment in Corgnac-Sur-L'isle

Description

Welcome to La Libellule!

….a little slice of heaven in the rolling Dordogne hills of the Perigord-Limousine National


The apartment has a large terrace for outdoor dining and bbqs or just relaxing on the sofa watching the beautiful sunsets, The terrace has panoramic views over the Dordogne countryside. It’s so peaceful and tranquil, the perfect place to re connect with nature, but at the same time a great place for the whole family with the pool and grounds for you to explore.
. We are at the end of a long track without main roads, but close enough to amenities at the same time, you’ll reach double gates with a large drive, parking for numerous cars.

We are also wildlife enthusiasts and are turning some of the grounds into a wildflower meadow with paths cut through so guests can wonder amongst it all looking for butterflies and other pollinators. You may even see deer and hear the wild boar down by the river in our woods, we have red squirrels and hare in the garden. The. red squirrels love to feed from the walnut tree, along with many birds feeding off the bird feeders too, The highlight of the year is seeing the hundreds of cranes migrating over the Dordogne. The sound is absolutely amazing.

Please bear in mind the effect that the seasons can have on the appearance of the gardens, particularly high season due to extreme heat and lack of rain. Sadly the grounds maybe lacking in flowers and the ground be brown.


You enter the apartment via steps leading up to the terrace that has outdoor dining for 5 plus double sofa for relaxing watching the sunsets. With double doors taking you into the lounge kitchen and dining room. This room retains its original beams which really adds character to it. There is free fibre wifi and smart TV for streaming.

The kitchen dining room is fully equipped with a hob/cooker, fridge freezer, dish washer, coffee maker and use of a washing machine in the barn. We will supply all kitchen products needed such as dish washer tablets etc. There are velux blinds on the windows and shutters on the entrance doors should you wish to block out the sun on a hot day.

The bathroom has a shower, vanity unit with storage and a unit for all towels etc.

The toilet is separate with a vanity unit, (it’s rather quirky)

There are wall mounted heaters for chilly evenings.

With over 3000 sq meters of garden which backs onto the woods, we love to just wonder in it and a great space for children to enjoy the outdoors, at the front there is farmers field, the cattle love to watch you swim from the fence.

There are plenty of sun loungers and parasols for lounging around the pool.

You’ll also find 2 hybrid bikes for use, the cycling is great with the quiet lanes and the ride along the river.
