The owners of Maison Pierre had a clear and simple plan: to create beautiful holiday homes in the heart of the Périgord Noir where castles, caves, market towns, vineyards and restaurants offer endless delights for the young and old.
The result is three elegant stone villas, full of traditional and authentic features as well as modern touches and comforts. Each villa has been cleverly designed to have its own private space and beautiful views of the countryside, and benefits from its own private, heated swimming pool.
Maison Pierre is a beguiling blend of old stone, wood and glass, with large windows which beautifully frame views over the pool, the large private wooded park and the valley. Indoors there are three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a spacious and inviting open-plan kitchen/dining/lounge area. Outdoors the stunning wooden terrace surrounds the pool and provides a beautiful space for relaxing and eating alfresco both during the day and evening. It enjoys lovely views over the parkland.
As far as settings go it would be difficult to find a more enchanting location. This is one of France’s Les Plus Beaux Villages, surrounded by countryside and woods and between beautiful Sarlat and Lascaux. A traditional Dordogne village of typical Périgordian houses, slate tiled roofs and golden stone walls, with at its centre, its majestic church, alongside the ruins of the original abbey. Amongst its places to visit are also the village’s original communal lavoir and bread oven and the restored tobacco barn. A charming village tea shop opens in the summer to sell fresh bread and croissants whilst there is usually a Tuesday evening market in July and August. Coly and Montignac for local and gastronomic restaurants are just 5 – 10 minutes away by car.
Relaxing and memorable holidays with family and friends are guaranteed at Maison Pierre, where a clever and sympathetic restoration has resulted in a beautiful home-away-from-home, guests come back to year after year.
- A ground-floor bedroom and bathroom offer convenient access for guests with reduced mobility, and the terrace can also be reached with ease.
- There is air-conditioning in the bedrooms and a floor cooling/heating system downstairs.
- Maison Pierre is one of three villas and it can also be booked with the other two villas Maison Boisette and L’Atelier to accommodate larger groups.
- Opening days and times for the amenities in the village may vary throughout the year.
