5 bedroom Villa in Dordogne. Sleeps 14
A beautiful property owned by a local viticulturist whose vineyards form part of the grounds around the house.
To the south of Bergerac, amidst the rolling countryside, lies Le Manoir du Vignoble, a charming haven set within a landscape of pretty villages and fields of vines. The vineyards here are integral to the scenery and the local way of life.
The façade of the manor is an elegant blend of pale stone walls and a steep, tiled roof made from original local tiles in warm hues of burnt sienna, rust, and brown. Dormer windows framed in stone complete the impressive exterior. The front of the house faces a circular driveway, centred by a lawned area dotted with trees. Stone steps lead up to a small terrace and the main entrance.
Inside, the grandeur continues with high beamed ceilings and exposed stone walls that create a sense of spaciousness and history throughout the ground floor. The tall stone fireplaces, reminiscent of those in chateaux, add to the atmosphere, found in the dining room, living room, and kitchen.
A vaulted underground den has been transformed into a cosy spot for billiards, while a large reception/games room with a kitchenette and living area provides ample space for relaxation. French windows open onto the grounds, where the surrounding landscape invites exploration.
The rear of the property features steps leading down to the pool area, perfectly positioned to offer expansive views of the vineyards and rolling countryside. A small lake within the grounds also provides an idyllic setting for a peaceful retreat, with fishing allowed.
The town of Sigoules (4km) offers essential amenities, while Bergerac (12km), situated along the banks of the River Dordogne, boasts an old port where you can take scenic boat trips.
