Description

Villa de Cour is a beautiful, spacious and imposing old farmhouse, with a living area of 250m2. It has been renovated whilst maintaining the original features, including an ancient barn, village well and bread oven. The spacious enclosed rear garden has access to the gated 10 x 5m swimming pool. There is covered parking and the front garden includes a stone terrace with barbecue overlooking a walnut grove and the countryside beyond. It is an ideal house for one or two families, or a large group of friends to relax in peaceful, rural surroundings.

Situated in the small hamlet of La Germenie in beautiful countryside, the house is ideally placed for exploring the major tourist attractions of the Dordogne Valley, such as:
- the medieval towns of Sarlat, Montignac and Domme
- the famous Lascaux caves with their prehistoric cave paintings
- numerous castles, eg Hautefort, Jumilhac le Grand, Beynac, Castelnaud
- kayaking on the river.
- local food markets, eg Excideuil.

It is 2km from the delightful village of Sainte Orse where you can enjoy a coffee in the square, buy fresh bread and eat at the local hotel. Supermarkets and more restaurants are a 10 minute drive away in Hautefort or Thenon. There are many local walks and bike routes on designated paths and quiet local roads.

- a farmhouse kitchen/dining area

- two twin bedrooms
- three bathrooms - one with bath and shower, two with shower rooms and 3 WCs

A real rural retreat

By Anita Bennett on 27-Jul-2024

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this house, set in beautiful countryside. It is spacious, full of character and has the most stunning swimming pool and pretty enclosed garden. It is a rural setting and you definitely need a car but you are rewarded with a chance to explore all the little villages and even getting to Sarlat-la-Canéda for canoeing on the Dordogne was easily done.

Lovely relaxing holiday

By Emma on 29-Jun-2024

An amazing large farmhouse and garden and pool. Peaceful and quiet yet close enough to lots of days out and easy access to nearby towns. The house is well equipped, clean and very roomy and comfortable and set in a beautiful garden and large pool. We all enjoyed our stay so much and felt so relaxed at the end of our two weeks. I loved sitting in the garden and having breakfast listening to the birds and swimming in the pool every evening. Perfect.

Thank you for your feedback. I am delighted that you had such a good holiday at our house!

A gorgeous house in a gorgeous location

By Ben Harwood on 22-Jun-2024

Had a delightful stay in this beautiful converted farmhouse. Plenty to do and see in the surrounding area, but the pool and garden made just staying at the house an equally splendid way to spend the day. Fantastic for a group of 8-10 looking to get away.

A gorgeous escape to the French countryside

By Shona on 02-Sep-2023

I could not recommend this house enough. There is space to comfortably house a large group. The setting is absolutely beautiful and bike rides up to the local village for baguettes and coffee are a must. There are also lots of lovely places to visit that are only a short drive away. The house itself is packed full of history and character plus the swimming pool is amazing in the hot sun. 5 stars all round.

Restful and lovely

By Guy on 21-Jul-2023

We very much enjoyed our stay here. Rural, definitely, but wonderfully peaceful and easy access to nearby towns and villages. The house is well equipped and has a real rustic charm to it that added to the whole holiday. Plenty of space to relax and enjoy the pool and garden games. Overall the whole group had a great time and returned home with stress levels reduced. Will definitely return.
