About this property

17th century renovated stone built farm house with private pool and garden

Stone built in 1685, situated in the village of Vaunac, the farmhouse and its Gite have been carefully restored keeping their original character.
The property has a private pool, private garden, and car parking space.

The small hamlet is surrounded by forest and this is where you are likely to see deer or wild boar as they tend to emerge from the woodland very early in the morning or in the evening twilight. Chickens and ducks in a separate garden area are all securely contained in their respective enclosures, and prove to be of great interest to younger guests.

Situated only 10 minutes from the market town of Thiviers, this well furnished and equipped holiday home provides comfortable accommodation for families, as well as couples. The location is ideal for discovering the delights of the Périgord region, and exploring the nearby towns and villages, such as Limoges, Périgueux, Brantôme, Saint-Jean-de-Côle and the martyr village of Oradour-sur-Glane, all within an hour’s drive.

This charming cottage has been beautifully restored to a high standard by the present owner, who lives in the adjoining farmhouse.
Sleeping up to five in two bedrooms, a cot and high chair are also available for baby if required.
The main bedroom has romantic wooden beams and a double bed, and the second bedroom has three full size single beds. Both rooms overlook the pool and garden. The cottage has a walk-in shower room with wash hand basin and a separate toilet off the hallway.
Air conditioning is available for the kitchen, dining and lounge areas and the kitchen is fully equipped with a gas/electric cooker, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and fridge/freezer, whilst the lounge and dining area provides comfortable and soft armchairs, a wood burning stove, English satellite TV, dvd player and free Wifi - all for your holiday relaxation.
The gardens, sun terrace and swimming pool can be accessed directly from the lounge and the pool area is private and not overlooked. A range of garden furniture and sun loungers along with a BBQ are also available for your holiday enjoyment.
A TV comes with satellite channels and a DVD player, and guests can stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a kitchen, and a washing machine.

Everything you need

We had a great stay with Cath. The gite is extremely well equipped with all the extras you need including washing liquid, dish washer tabs etc. the bed is very big and comfortable with good quality bedding; my husband is 6ft 4 and he found the bed a good size. There is a great garden and private pool; great for us and our dog. The nearest bakery is a 10 minute drive but a van delivering fresh bread and pastries comes to the hamlet twice a week. We saw a stag in the field from the garden, who is a regular visitor to the wheat field. TV has UK channels as well as local ones and the internet was good based on the 3 gites we stayed at during our vacation in Dordogne. The one improvement I would make would be to fully enclose the garden to make it easier for dog owners, but we saw that Cath was already doing some work on this. Loved the little touches such as wine, bread, butter and homemade pate in the fridge, if you arrive late you still have everything in the gite to make breakfast.

Very welcoming

The owner Cath Hall left a lovely welcome pack in our gite. The gite was lovely and catered to all our needs . The pool was a good size . I loved that we could take our two Labradors and that they have plenty of garden/ fields to run around in. Cath was very helpful and I would certainly recommend her. 5 stars plus.

Wonderful place to stay

Our first holiday to France and we had a fabulous time. Cath was extremely helpful but not intrusive; suggested places to visit, brought eggs from her chickens and was especially helpful with our vet appointment and a doctors appointment when i was unwell. Loved the whole setting our teenagers loved feeding the chickens!! We will definitely be back. Thanks Cath

Calme et reposant

Nous avons passé 2 superbes semaines au gîte avec nos 2 enfants. La description de l'annonce correspond exactement au logement. Le Périgord est une région magnifique. Nous avons visité beaucoup de très beaux endroits. Nous avons également passé d'agréables moment sur la terrasse et dans la piscine du gîte. Un endroit calme et sans nuisances. Les seuls bruits sont ceux des sifflements des oiseaux et de la nature. Un tout grand merci à Cath pour son accueil très chaleureux et ses conseils. Nous y reviendront très certainement

Très agréable

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans le Périgord, le chalet est très confortable, il ne manque rien, Catherine est très disponible et sympathique et vue sur une prairie et un bois particulièrement belle et reposante lorsqu'on vient de la ville. Il y a de grandes chances que nous revenions !

Endroit pour les gens qui cherchent le calme et la nature

Très acceuillant, avec les petits attentions qui font plaisir: fruits, beurre, pain, confiture, fromage, paté maison et vin. Très discrète mais toujours présente quand nécessaire. Endroit ideal pour les gens qui cherchent le calme et la nature. On se sent à la maison. Simplement Zen.

Marvellous - einfach überwätigend herzlich und schön - perfect vacation

Mit der Vermieterin Cath Hall haben wir eine perfekte und liebevolle Versorgung gehabt. Das Welcome Package deckt großzügig alle Bedarfe ab und ist liebevoll zusammengestellt. Das Haus ist geräumig und kühl, die Klimaanlage ist nicht wirklich nötig. Der riesige Garten bietet schattige und sonnige Flächen in romantischer Optik. Der Pool am Gite ist sehr gepflegt und groß, ausreichend Gartenmöbel und Terrassenplatz samt Grill lassen die Erholung perfekt werden. Die Vermieterin ist für uns da gewesen, hat aber niemals gestört - im Gegenteil, wir haben uns immer gefreut sie zu sehen und zu sprechen. Den Pool hat sie sorgsam täglich gereinigt, ganz früh, um uns nicht zu stören. Wir waren mit zwei Buben 11 Jahre und unserem jungen Border Collie in der Gite und sind begeistert, wie großzügig und liebevoll Cath den Kindern und dem Hund gegenüber war. Unkomplizierter und freundlicher geht es kaum. An der Gite gibt es nix zu meckern, gepflegt, instand und kuschelig. Ausflüge in die Umgebung sind mit Strecken zwischen 10-60 Km manigfaltig möglich, Kunst, Kultur, Handwerk, Schlösser, Moderne, es gibt einfach alles. Und den landestypischen Markt in Thiviers (10 km) muss man Samstags unbedingt genießen. Happy vacation guaranteed - thanks Cath for this perfect time
