Dive into the bustling weekly village markets, or relax under a shady tree in the orchard, or just unwind on the front lawns overlooking Monpazier as the sun sets. The cottage sits on four peaceful acres, so you feel completely immersed in the tranquil French countryside...with this beautiful active village on your doorstep. In cool months, settle before a cosy fire after a walk in the oak forests of Biron. In summer enjoy the riverbeaches at Limeuil, Tremolat & Vitrac, or nearby swimming lake at Lanquais. Les Cerisiers, now a cosy couple's retreat, was the gatekeeper's cottage for Villa Ste Therese, which sits 70 metres away, beyond hedges, laurels & walnut trees, & shares the rambling gardens.

Bike hire can also be arranged - bikes delivered to the cottage for your enjoyment.
