THE LOCATION

Situated on the edge of a quiet little village and within a short walk of the local shop and restaurant the property is in a quiet location bordering the countryside with a splendid view west across the large garden and private pool to the Chateau de Montreal.

For supermarkets and the local market (Saturday mornings) in the nearby town are a short drive (10 minutes), where you will find everything from a bank to chemist and all the other usual shops. There are several restaurants also within a short drive, including Le Rocher des Gourmets opposite the ancient abbey and church at Sourzac, recommended for it's unique interior dining (the property is built into the rock face) and it's excellent food.

From the house you can walk up the lane into the countryside or down and across the village, there are many signed country walks and a large panel opposite the church has a map showing some recommended routes to follow, either on foot or bicycle (local bike hire can be arranged).

THE AREA

The area is steeped in history from the Chateau de Montreal (guided visits throughout July and August), to the lovely village church in the centre of the village, the old stone buildings and the tucked away ancient lavoir (wash house) down by the river, to the old abbey and church at Sourzac and the hidden alleys of the nearby town of Mussidan (follow the signed town trail).Further afield are the historic and pre-historic siotes of the Perigord Noir, along the Dorodgne valley following the river with it's spectacular scenery and fairy tale chateaux. To the south lies medieval Bergerac surrounde by it's vineyards amoungs which is the Chateau the Monbazillac and it's famous sweet white dessert wine. To the north is Riberac and Brantome and going west towards Bordeaux you enter the Girond and Saint Emillion which hosts the strong full bodied Bordeaux red wine.

You will without a doubt enjoy discovering all that the Dorodgne has to offer both near and far and you will appreciate the friendliness of the people, the quiet and calm pace of life and the agreeably sunny climate.
