Stone-framed and sun-warmed in the northern Dordogne countryside, Maison et Bergerie de la Brousse is a masterfully restored 18th-century retreat only 16km from Sarlat-la-Canéda.

Framed by manicured gardens, this charming ensemble of a Maison de Maître and traditional Bergerie encircles a central garden, where a heated pool awaits. Exposed beams, weathered stone walls and authentic architectural flourishes run throughout, seamlessly marrying rustic heritage with modern comforts.

The main house is an inviting haven, designed for gatherings and slow-living moments. The gorgeous living room, with its vast fireplace and deep sofas, opens into a farmhouse-style kitchen equipped for convivial cooking. Two pretty double bedrooms, both with ensuite bathrooms, provide a restful escape.

Across the garden, the Bergerie offers three additional ensuite bedrooms spread across three floors, each with warm character and thoughtful touches, ideal for extended family or groups of friends.

Outside, this holiday home invites effortless outdoor living. Long lunches unfold on the shaded dining terrace beside the barbecue, and the swimming pool awaits for summer afternoons. Quiet corners are perfect for reading, while the evening draws guests together for wine and stargazing.

Perfectly positioned for discovering the wonders of the Dordogne, the property sits just 20 minutes from the enchanting town of Sarlat-la-Canéda, famed for its vibrant markets, mediaeval lanes and rich culinary culture.

Local shops and cafés in La Chapelle-Aubareil are just 4 km away, while riverside Montignac and the iconic Lascaux caves are just a short drive. From exploring prehistoric treasures in Les Eyzies to canoeing near La Roque-Gageac, this region is steeped in natural beauty and cultural treasures.

Maison et Bergerie de la Brousse offers a graceful setting where heritage and hospitality combine in timeless French style.
