Property Description

Visit the picturesque Perigord/Dordogne Region and stay in a traditional Stone Farmhouse with a breathtaking valley view. Les Gites Fleuris is located on a quiet semi-private single lane road, nestled amongst the idyllic countryside, in a hamlet of 18th century stone perigordian farmhouses. The Pool, Jacuzzi, and sundeck are situated in the tranquil orchard, surrounded by grass, trees and flowers. Only 2 km is the dramatic Chateau de Hautefort! A magnificent 17th C Chateau that rivals those in the Loire Valley. Nearby are prehistoric sites, medieval villages, and 1001 castles. After a day of touring the sites, relax and enjoy the serene valley views from your terrace, pool, or Jacuzzi! Open year round with central heat and fireplaces!

The Wisteria House is a beautifully restored traditional stone farmhouse with a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, separate WC, living room with big stone fireplace, TV, DVD player, wireless internet access (wifi), and CD player.

Relaxation is easy, either poolside on the sundeck, in the Jacuzzi, or on a hammock; or enjoy a peaceful stroll of the property acreage of fruit and walnut trees. Enjoy the wonderful view while playing: ping-pong, badminton/volleyball, croquet, swinging on the swing set, or in the children’s raised fort with climbing wall. An indoor games room will keep all the family entertained with games, toys, ping pong, and Disney video cassettes.

There is a central laundry room with washing machines and dryers which you can use at no extra charge.

Exercise Room is available to help keep you fit!

Hautefort is a great bicycling and walking area with rolling hillsides and lovely forest and valley views. All services are within walking distance: 1 km to boulangerie, grocery store, and bank. 2 km to tabac, post office, and the office of tourism. 2.5km to a swimming lake.

Step back in time to the old France of farms and castles and caves and stone villages; and after touring, enjoy a wonderful bottle of Bergerac or Bordeaux Wine with some of France's famous cheeses!

And after a day of touring, unwind in the Jacuzzi and enjoy the unobstructed view of the myriad of stars!
