The Barn Interior

The double barn doors open into the vast ground floor which has warm terracotta tiles throughout and is furnished with an eclectic mix of antique and modern furniture. The kitchen area leads you to the centre of the room where the grand dining table is suitably placed to offer views up to the roof beams, exposed to their full glory. The lounge area completes the space with comfortable seating and a wood burning stove. Patio doors at the rear, open onto a pretty breakfast terrace with views overlooking the walnut orchard and the Dordogne valley.
Take the steps down from the terrace and the swimming pool is only a few metres away.

A beautiful, oak staircase follows up to the sleeping area. There are two double rooms and a large mezzanine area. For flexible sleeping options, this area offers an additional double bed and two singles.

The Open Mezzanine can be screened off for complete privacy.

The two doubles. All set in the original roof beams.

Although the barn is a wonderfully large space and there are enough beds to sleep up to six adults and two children, due to its open plan nature and the single bathroom being located on the ground floor, we only recommend this property for up to four adults or a single family.

The barn is available to rent in mid to peak season and only as an addition to the gite rental.
