Gîte Marie - Adults only

Welcome to "Marie's," an 85 m² terraced house with two air-conditioned bedrooms that can accommodate up to four adults. The Marie cottage has been created in the oldest house on the Domaine des Ormeaux estate. The master bedroom retains its original rustic features, such as the French-style ceiling and the 17th-century stone fireplace. Our ancestor Marie's four-poster bed, which had been relegated to the attic, has been restored to its former use! The second, more intimate bedroom was originally the pantry. The living room/gallery opens onto the inner courtyard and offers a beautiful view of the countryside, allowing early risers to enjoy the sunrise. A private area in the inner courtyard, furnished with a table, chairs, and garden furniture, provides a space for Marie's guests to gather for an aperitif or a tasting of local Périgord products.
