General & History
This Château is located in the South-West of France to the east of Bordeaux. Set on the top of a hill, with a magnificent panoramic view, we are in the heart of the Perigord Noir region of France where the Dordogne and Vezere rivers meet.
The chateau is the perfect place to relax with family or friends and from which to explore the region. The château itself is charming and cosy & can accommodate up to 24. However, there are also 2 gites in the grounds that can be rented together with the chateau (for groups of up to 38) or independently (both have their own private garden and pool). Calm and isolated, it offers a large view of the Dordogne valley. The cottages date from the XVI century and have been recently renovated and furnished with elegance and comfort.
In the Middle Ages, under Richard Lion the Heart, the French and the English fought in the Dordogne. It was at this time that the chateau first appeared (in the XIV Century) with the construction of one keep in the west wing (today the office and the pink room).
At the end of XV Century and first part of XVI Century the chateau was strengthened in the East. During the peaceful period from the XVII Century to the Revolution, broad windows were installed on the southern side overlooking the valley of the Dordogne. The beams above the attic windows display carvings paying homage to the king Louis XIV. In about the middle of the XIX Century enormous work was undertaken in order to provide more comfort. This included restoration of the principal building and construction of other houses to form an interior courtyard entered by a wrought iron gate. The chateau belonged, until the middle of the XIX Century, to the family of Abzac - an old Périgord family. In 1988 we bought the property and, whilst continuing to respect its original features, a full renovation was necessary to reach the fantastic levels of comfort that it enjoys today.
