Robin - Quatre Chambres Villa, Couchages 6

This farmhouse style villa in Aquitaine is perfect for a peaceful family holiday. The house is a casual, comfortable converted barn, full of beautiful old stonework and wooden beams. From this perch above the Sainte Alvère Valley the green countryside stretches out before you, full of hidden gems waiting to be discovered.

On the Dordogne River you’ll find dozens of wineries near Bergerac, just a 35 minute drive away. Here you can visit the Maison des Vins, where you’ll see an exhibition of the history of the 13 appellations of the Bergerac wine region. Or drive a little farther to experience famous Bordeaux region.

After a long day touring you can easily cook dinner in the updated, economical kitchen, but we recommend dining at Chez Cathy in Ste. Alvère (4 km).

If you love the outdoors, this villa holiday will be heaven. Public tennis courts can be found in Sainte Alvère, or golf is outside of Bergerac (30 km) at Chateau les Merles. A 20 minute drive will take you to Camberoux, and the nearest horseback riding stable. And if the kids are in tow, take them to the alligator show at Aquarium du Périgord Noir (18 km).
