General & History

This 17th century chateau lies five hundred feet above sea level on one of the beautiful plateaux of the Massif Central, Le Plateau de Mille Vaches (The Plateau of a Thousand Cows). It is surrounded by breathtaking scenery of forests, mountains and the beautiful Dordogne Valley.

The chateau itself is full of atmosphere - cosy corners, classic fireplaces, antiques, sleigh beds, a 'Rapunzel' tower, and even a chapel with a confessional.

With accommodation for up to sixteen adults and six children, it's a perfect venue for a chateau holiday for a large group. Shared amongst a number of families or couples, this is a very affordable and unforgettable holiday experience.

The chateau is ideal for families and is perfectly safe for children. Its grounds include a large garden, a fenced swimming pool, fields, a stream and a small wood which afford plenty of activities for young and old alike. Enjoy cycling along the local lanes, boating on the lake, horse riding, tennis, canoeing on the Dordogne. For those happy to travel further, there is also skiing.
