This charming 16th and 17th century estate has a colourful history, built between 1580-1608 by French nobility. It was the headquarters of the resistance during WW2 and tunnels underneath were used to hide refugees and allied soldiers!

The property has been expertly restored using the best materials and local artisans to retain the integrity of the original chateau. The whole estate is in a private and secluded location with grounds, including a heated swimming pool, a hard-surface tennis court and many acres of woodland.

The flexible accommodation includes the 11-bedroom chateau, each bedroom having its own private bathroom facilities. There are numerous fine reception rooms, including an oak panelled dining room designed by one of the artisans that worked on Versailles, a glorious drawing room and a connecting music room with original herringbone parquet flooring. A spacious kitchen and rear kitchen with a huge stone fireplace lead through to the extensive cellars. Stunning views can be enjoyed from the terrace to the rear of the chateau.

Adjacent to the chateau is a large barn, perfect for storage or garaging, and a studio of approximately 50m2, perfect for yoga or sport. Adjacent to this, is a further room that is currently set up as a games room.

A beautiful pigeonnier has been renovated to provide a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom guest cottage complete with a fully fitted kitchen and living area (possible gite business – subject to necessary permissions). To the rear of the pigeonnier is a delightful walled garden and to the front is the swimming pool. On a raised part of the garden there is a yoga platform perfectly aligned towards the rising sun. The gardens are beautifully planted and mature with walkways just waiting to be discovered.

Located just over 10 minutes from the popular town of Eymet and 25 minutes from Bergerac airport, this fabulous estate could function well as a luxury hideaway for large families and groups of friends. There is also an excellent opportunity to run a business (subject to necessary permissions) as it is an ideal setting for creative escapes; yoga, cooking, writing, and painting courses could be perfectly accommodated. The chateau and setting would also be ideal to host weddings and other celebrations.
