Close to Dordogne river, with valley views, midway between Beynac and Rocamadour
La Cave forms the major part of a pre-Napoleonic house, this fully self-contained two-bedroom gîte is nestled in the picturesque Dordogne valley itself, midway between the medieval towns of Rocamadour and Beynac. We are located in an elevated position offering easy access to all that the area has to offer.
The house has been recently sympathetically restored keeping many original features, comprising of a large french farmhouse style kitchen/dining room which offers large double oven range style cooker, washing machine, dish washer, large fireplace with log burner, fridge/freezer, microwave, and large farmhouse table that seats eight. A stunning vaulted lounge with beautiful views over the valley, two leather sofas seating six and 55 inch tv with Uk and French tv channels, a playstation2 for cds, dvds and games, and also selection of books. Two light, airy and comfortable bedrooms, one double with antique wrought iron bed, wardrobe and lovely views over a duck pond, and a twin room with wooden high polished beds. there is new bathroom with jet shower cubicle. Ideal for families or couples looking for an active holiday or restful getaway. The area can cater to a huge variety of interests. We are a stones throw away from popular cycle routes and 200m from the Dordogne river, perfect for canoeing, kayaking or fishing. Our two local villages of Carlux and St Julien de Lampon have restaurants, bars, Boulangeries, general stores, a chemist, post offices, churches and even a castle. A larger supermarket is just a ten minute drive in the local town of Souillac.
Fancy something a bit more relaxed? Take a wander around the many beautiful medieval towns located within a short drive and sample the food and wine the region is famous for: duck, foie gras and walnut (the locally produced walnut wine is particularly splendid!) Twice a week Sarlat hosts a large public market, take the opportunity to bring back some local produce and have dinner in the comfort of your own farmhouse style kitchen, or a bbq al fresco enjoying the scenic countryside. Hosts live discreetly to the rear of the property with own access.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Unique and Comfortable Accommodation in an Excellent Location!
The lovely, well maintained, and unique property was perfect for our vacation. The host, Richard, was most helpful and was available for questions before and during our visit, as needed. The home is well appointed and very comfortable. We utilized the kitchen each night and found it to be well stocked with needed appliances and kitchenware. This enjoyable home is located in a perfect place for exploring the Dordogne!

Perfect stay
The property is just as advertised. In fact, better than advertised. The pictures do not do justice to this uniquely distinct accommodation. It is spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished with everything one needs to enjoy their time in this beautiful area of the world. Richard and Karol are perfect hosts, thoughtful and considerate of their guests needs without being intrusive. Time flew by much too quickly and we hope to return to continue the adventure of exploring this beautiful part of the Dordogne - hopefully in these same accommodations.

Quiet Dordogne property
The property was as described on the website. It was very quiet, interesting and well equipped. The owners were on hand and ready with helpful suggestions of places to visit but were in no way intrusive. Beds were comfortable and the shower room well appointed. We had a lovely week and would happily return should we be in the area again

A completely wonderful experience!
Being our first visit to the south of France, we hoped that we had made the right choice for our "home." We could not have been more pleased. The home has been meticulously/thoroughly renovated. The rooms are large and very well appointed. Every need has been provided. The large country kitchen/dining area provides all that one could ask for. The large living room is very large but feels cozy because of the vaulted ceiling. The hosts, Karol & Richard, make you feel like family. They assure your privacy but are there if you have questions. They are the perfect hosts. It's location was perfect. We booked a three week stay and enjoyed every day of it. We could have stayed longer.
Absolutely no regrets here!!!!

Characterful Carlux retreat
This holiday home is beautifully presented and very well equipped with everything necesssary for a comfortable stay in this lovely area.
Being part of a very old stone building - with of course the amazing vaulted stone sitting room - it has great character and has been pleasantly and sympathetically modernised throughout.
During our stay in November the weather turned quite cold and it was necessary to make use of the wood burning stove in the kitchen - which Richard the owner supplied plenty of logs for - and two portable electric heaters for the other rooms.
Being in an elevated postion the property has good views of the surrounding countryside and a pleasant terraced area with dining furniture outside.

Très bon séjour
Très bon séjour chez Richard, qui a été très à l'écoute et prévenant. La maison est agréable, atypique et bien équipée. Un peu bruyante notamment sur la terrasse qui est néanmoins très agréable avec une jolie vue. Un petit bémol pour la chambre aux deux petits lits qu'on ne peut pas réunir et la salle bain qui manque d'une étagère. Hormis ces points, le séjour a été très agréable.

Auch an heißen Tagen immer cool
Sehr schönes Haus mit guter Ausstattung. Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit.
Besonders angenehm ist die Tatsache, dass es auch bei fast 40 Grad C Außentemperatur im Haus immer noch nur gefühlte 25 Grad C hat.
Auch als Ausgangspunkt in die Umgebung mit den vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten der Dordonge, ist das Haus gut gelegen.
Ein Punkt Abzug allerdings für die nahgelegene Landstraße, die besonders tagsüber stark befahren ist und auch nachts leider für Unruhe sorgt.
Dennoch haben wir den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und kommen ggf. nochmal wieder.
Viele Grüße an Richard und seine Familie.

Super sejour
Maison exceptionnellement propre. Très bien équipée, on ne manque de rien. Très bien placé pour avoir un bon aperçu de la région.
Le seul défaut s’il devait y en avoir un c’est le bruit de la route qui passe en dessous, mais il y a très peu de passage.
Richard a été très accueillant et réactif. Je recommande cette maison les yeux fermés.

Дом возле реки Дордонь
Мы провели неделю в этом доме. Прекрасная гостинная в виде пещеры с романтическ им видом из окна. Очень приветливый хозяин и хорошо оснащена кухня. Но дом находится прямо над трассой, где в 5 утра уже начинает активно ездить транспорт. Кровати очень старые и мотрац на двухспальной кровати совершенно не имеет никаких ортопедических свойств. Один Сан узел, что не удобно для семьи. Также адрес не правильно отображается на картах Google, поэтому нужно ориентироваться на точку HomeAway.
