Les Vignes
Sleeps 4. 2 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms.
Set high up in the heart of the vineyards around Bergerac, close to the villages of Gageac-et-Rouillac and Saussignac, is this charming cottage with uninterrupted views right across the countryside. This house for four people offers a wonderful location for exploring the vines and wines of Bergerac, St Emilion, and even Sauternes to the south, yet still being close to Bordeaux and the history of the Dordogne Valley.
The large garden is mainly laid to lawn with an interesting selection of mature fruit trees providing pockets of shade. The pool (10m x 5 m) is set slightly lower than the property and has the same superb views over the vineyards and surrounding countryside. There is a covered pergola along one side of the pool providing an ideal spot for outside eating. The cottage is comfortably furnished and equipped to a high standard. Its elevated situation, combined with the many French doors leading from each of the rooms to the garden, means this is a delightfully light and airy property. The entrance door leads into a small hallway with a corridor to the right off which are two very pretty bedrooms (1 double and 1 twin room), both with ensuite bathroom. The master bedroom has a ceiling fan. Directly ahead of the entrance hallway is a further shower room with WC. To the left steps lead down to the kitchen/dining room with terracotta floor tiles and a wood burning stove. A door leads from the kitchen into the charming sitting room, which has satellite TV. There is also a fireplace with wood burning stove in this room. The decor throughout makes use of light colour schemes and there are many thoughtful touches which add to the charm of this property.
This is a charming house, set in a very tranquil location with lovely views yet close to the main town of Bergerac with its many amenities. The nearest village is Saussignac which is only about 2kms away and has a butcher, pub, restaurant, and bakery. St Foy la Grande is 14km away which has supermarket, banks and more restaurants.
