Les Chouettes, Tremolat, Dordogne, France

The Cottage - sleeps 8
The Barn - sleeps 7 plus sofa bed

These adjoining properties located in the Dordogne offer the perfect option for friends and family holidays in this most beautiful part of France at any time of year. The area is steeped in history with chateaux to visit and bustling markets day or night. A trip to the charming village of Limeuil, where the Dordogne River and the Vezerre Rivers converge, is a must. Drive to Beynac village and hop onto a gabarre flat bottomed boat to enjoy an unforgettable chateaux finding cruise. And these are just for starters.

There is so much more to explore including the pretty village of Tremolat just a short walk away to pick up fresh croissants and bread for the day ahead. Les Chouettes is a fantastic winter destination for a Christmas or New Year escape with lots of walking and cycling opportunities in the day rounded off with an evening spent by the warming wood burner in the cosy lounges.

The Cottage at Les Chouettes is a 250 year old traditional property brimming with period features further reflected in the recent barn conversion next door. The 2 gites work really well for all groups including multi generational groups and families. Both have open plan living spaces which make socialising effortless whether dining inside or out. The pool with sun terrace is the focal point for fun and relaxation although guests may like to find some peaceful shade sitting outside the Cottage sipping some local wine or a coffee.

Accommodation offers choice and flexibility with queens, doubles and twins, some en suite. The high vaulted ceilings in both houses offers spacious luxury French chic bedrooms with shuttered windows overlooking the pretty mature gardens. The main upstairs bedrooms in The Barn also have air conditioning. Bathroom facilities are plentiful with showers or baths, all with attractive fixtures and fittings.
