Magnificent old house completely renovated

Ideally located in black Périgord, in the heart of the valley of the four castles, the hamlet of Saint-Julien is a haven of tranquility, accessible by a dead end road. It overlooks the Dordogne valley, facing the magnificent Marqueyssac cliffs, the Castelnaud-la-Chapelle castle and the listed village of La Roque-Gageac.

At the entrance to the hamlet, a 16th century stone house with a slate roof overlooks a garden on several levels. Its fully preserved traditional architecture, its antique furniture and its rare location give this house a special charm.

Completely renovated, the house, easily accommodating 6 people, has all the comforts, a large garden and a beautiful private swimming pool. In any season, for an active or pure relaxation stay, it will satisfy heritage lovers and nature enthusiasts.

The 200 m² house has 3 spacious bedrooms with their respective bathrooms: the red bedroom, the orange bedroom and the honey bedroom. The TV lounge, giving access to the red bedroom, equipped with a comfortable sofa bed, can be used to accommodate one or two children.
The house also has a living room with a large open fire, an equipped kitchen, 4 toilets and a cellar.

A garden on several levels and a large private heated swimming pool (6 x 12 m) located below the house allow you to enjoy the remarkable view and the absolute tranquility of the site. These different levels can be dangerous for boisterous children.

Overlooking the garden, the views of the Dordogne valley and the Marqueyssac cliffs are majestic all year round.

Garden table with chairs, sun loungers and pool loungers are also available to fully enjoy the garden, the view, the tranquility.

What a view
Amazing stay - highly recommended The view is INCREDIBLE - looking west out of the valley - sundowners with hot air baloons floating serenely above will stay with me for a long time The pool is wonderful and we had many happy hours spent there. The inside is very traditional of an old property - but is a great base, super clean and incredibly comfortable beds. Overall highly recommended - we had a fabulous stay

Beautiful home that exceeded the photos
The gardens and pool of this property were exceptional and exceeded the photos, the sunsets and views across the valley you simply can’t capture but are incredible. The owners were easily contactable and quick to resolve any issue we had. Really recommend this property as a beautiful French home

Amazing property and location
Perfect family holiday home to explore the dordogne. Wonderful views, great pool and lots of attractions in easy reach (need car). Cenac a 5 min drive away with all local amenities including supermarket that you could need for your stay. Would happily revisit!

Fantastic
What a special venue. Stayed here with six other adults and had a wonderful time. Great location that's quiet but close to what you need in the Dordogne. The owners have addressed every need from a well appointed kitchen and bathrooms to spare table tennis balls. They really have thought of everything. Thoroughly enjoyed by all of us and an amazing place to stay.

Wonderful time in a breathtaking view hidden gem!
We just returned from our trip to la Dordogne and nothing can match the beautiful view we were blessed to contemplate every day while we were there! The house was all we had hoped for! Comfortable, clean, well-equipped and the spaciousness of the outdoors gave the kids and all of us much room to enjoy the sun, the sunsets and the unique breathtaking sight of the garden of Marqueyssac. The house is located close to everything one needs and yet, the peace and quiet felt as if we were in the middle of nowhere, which was what we wished for! Pierrette was a delight and so helpful all the way. Very responsive and truly eager to help make our stay the best one as possible. A definite recommendation for whomever wishes to explore le Perigord Noir and, without a doubt one that has helped us make many family memories! Thank you again!

Wonderful!!
My family and I had a fantastic holiday here. The house is a great mixture of old and new and offered complete peace and quiet. I will not forget eating our evening meals in the garden, looking out over the lovely view and our days, lazing by the fabulous swimming pool. The house is also in a great location to see some of the beautiful towns and castles along this part of the Dordogne. We really enjoyed our visits to Domme, Beynac, Rocamadour, La Roque Gageac and Les Jardins de Marqueyssac. The only down side of the holiday was having to leave!!

Nous avons passé 6 jours merveilleux, loin de l'agitation. Calme et reposant. Le cadre est magnifique. Une trés belle maison, un (trés) grand jardin, sa grande piscine et bien sur les vues reposantes, invitant à de nombreuses promenades. Cuisine, jeux de société, bibliothèque, salles de bains, ping-pong, wifi... il ne manque rien ! MeRcI Cyril & Carine

Très agréable séjour
Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine dans la maison. La rénovation de la maison est très réussie. La décoration est soignée et de bon goût. Nous avons été très bien accueillis par la personne chargée de l’arrivée et du départ. La maison est très propre et très agréable, on se sent comme chez soi! Par températures supérieures à 30C les avantages de la pierre sont très appréciables! Le « livret d’accueil » élaboré parla propriétaire est d’une grande aide. En cas de problème la solution est immédiate grâce à un contact facile et rapide avec la propriétaire. Si nous en avons l’occasion, nous reviendrons avec plaisir!

Un très bon séjour, des propriétaires très attentifs
Le seul point négatif de notre séjour est une maison un peu humide par mauvais temps mais sinon nous avons passé (2adultes et un bébé) un superbe séjour au calme, en pleine nature, a nous ressoucrer. La maison est très belle, très bien entretenue (y compris la piscine). Tout est fait pour y rester: les lits sont très confortables et le service de table est très beau dans sa sobriété, pour une location ça fait beaucoup de bien de voir des gens qui ont du goût et qui ont mis à disposition des choses de qualité! Le village est charmant et la vue imprenable. Les propriétaires sont aimables et attentifs. C'était parfait. Merci!

Belle périgourdine, très confortable.
Nous avons passé une très agréable semaine dans cette maison parfaitement équipée pour accueillir 3 couples ( avec ses 3 belles salles de bains) . Les propriétaires ont été attentifs et réactifs aux petits soucis d'installation lors de notre arrivée. Il reste des points de détails à finaliser comme un rangement supplémentaire pour les vêtements dans une des chambres et à sécuriser l'escalier qui descend à la piscine mais notre impression globale est très positive.

Superbe!
Une maison somptueuse équipée et décorée avec goût, le tout dans un paysage magnifique. La propriétaire est attentive au bien être de ses locataires et rien ne manque. La piscine était fermée lors de notre venue car il faisait encore trop froid, dommage car cela doit être la cerise sur le gâteau! Parents et enfants ont été comblés, nous reviendrons!
