Surrounded by a patchwork of fields and forests in the picturesque Perigord Noir area, the charming village of Prats-du-Perigord, with its honey coloured stone buildings topped with pitched roofs of deep red tiles, is most typical of the region. 

Follow the lane from the village square, and you'll arrive at La Cloche, a pretty stone cottage that has been lovingly restored and now features a private pool.

Inside, the villa is stylishly decorated, blending harmonious natural shades with a contemporary feel. Traditional elements are thoughtfully incorporated, such as a modern bathroom sink set atop a hewn piece of wood, while steel-colored kitchen appliances contrast with a retro sideboard.

Outdoor living at La Cloche is a breeze. The kitchen opens directly onto the dining terrace, which overlooks both the pool and garden for easy supervision. From here, step down to the garden, where the lawn wraps around three sides of the pool area. This enclosed space features a heated pool, a sunbathing terrace, and a covered seating area—there’s a perfect spot for everyone, whether you prefer the sun or the shade!

The village itself has a traditional bar, and the delightful bastide towns of Villefranche-du-Périgord (10km), Belvès (15km), and Monpazier (16km) are all within a 20-minute radius. Each town offers a variety of amenities, restaurants, and a weekly market, along with evening gourmet markets during the summer (July and August).

For a different perspective of the stunning scenery, the Dordogne river is just a 20-minute drive away. Spend an hour or two canoeing down the river or take a trip on one of the traditional gabarre boats. Along this stretch, you'll find several magnificent châteaux, towering above the villages, and well worth a visit to experience a glimpse into times gone by.
