The chateau is a heartbeat away from prehistoric caves and incredible medieval villages like Rocamadour, Sarlat and Beaulieu sur Dordogne. Cave paintings at Lascaux and Les Eyzies are evidence of life in prehistoric times. Castles and chateaux from the 12th, 13th and 14th centuries and Romanesque churches abound in the area. They represent the struggles of the 100 years war between France and England.
The chateau was originally the banking house of the vicomte of Turenne who left both the land and title to the king of France in the 18th century. Today, the house has been restored, preserving its architecture while installing all modern conveniences and comforts. The house has been divided in three romantic apartments:
Apartment 1 : a large villa with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The master bedroom suite has a king size dual electronic adjustable bed. The kitchen/dining room is well equipped with modern appliances and has a wood burning stove. The gracious living room boasts a massive fireplace dating from 1730. French doors open to terraces overlooking the Roman pool and exquisite countryside.
Apartment 2 : a romantic studio apartment overlooking the gardens and pool. It is beautifully furnished with a new kitchen and modern bathroom. Guests can enjoy the quiet setting in the comfortable living room with a large picture window overlooking spectacular scenery.
Apartment 3 : a charming studio apartment with an electric king size adjustable bed. It has been completely refurbished with a new kitchen. Enjoy magnificent views from the private terrace with access to the pool. Chaise lounges on the terrace are conducive to reading, relaxing and just enjoying the scenery.
The entire property can be rented as one unit for large groups offering privacy and spaciousness if desired.
