Maison Bourg Calès is an enchanting 18th-century village home that perfectly blends rustic character with understated comfort. First built in 1750 and thoughtfully restored in 2009, this classic French cottage welcomes guests with exposed beams, stone walls and a warm, welcoming ambience that instantly feels like home. Hear the church bells chime as you enjoy your morning coffee with a glimpse of the Dordogne River.
Inside, the home unfolds across two floors, with a relaxed and practical layout ideal for families or groups of friends. On the ground floor, the living and dining areas are bright and homely, with everything you need for long, convivial meals or quiet evenings in. The adjoining kitchen is fully equipped, and there’s a bathroom on this level for added convenience. Upstairs, three inviting bedrooms (two king-size doubles and a twin) are accompanied by two well-appointed bathrooms. Outside, a converted barn houses a fourth bedroom with its own open shower room, offering extra privacy and a lovely sense of independence.
The enclosed garden is charming where a shaded terrace, barbecue and pretty pool area offer plenty of space to unwind. The private pool, with a contra-flow swimming current, is a highlight, perfect for refreshing dips on hot afternoons or simply lounging by the water with a good book.
Maison Bourg Calès sits in an enviable position between Bergerac and Sarlat-la-Canéda, with the market town of Lalinde just five minutes away by car. This is a region rich in history, gastronomy and natural beauty. Wander the medieval lanes of Sarlat, paddle down the Dordogne by canoe, explore prehistoric cave art at Lascaux or visit Château de Monbazillac for a taste of the region’s renowned sweet wine.
