The House

'Les Grands Chênes' is set in 8 acres of woodland and gardens with its own swimming pool and stunning views of the surrounding meadows, vineyards and lake. It is at the end of a long drive, flanked by ancient oaks, that leads to the nearby chateau de Bridoire. The house is fully equipped with billiard room, table tennis, darts, a guitar and organ, table football, volleyball and mountain bikes. It also has a relaxation centre with sauna, jacuzzi, exercise equipment and shower.

The Local Area

There are many marked routes for walks directly from the property, through the woods, around the lake or to the nearby chateau. There is also a riding school nearby, tennis courts, canoeing and a golf course. Bergerac,10 minutes drive away, is a beautiful medieval town on the Dordogne river set in the heart of the Perigord region which hosts prehistoric painted and carved caves, and numerous outdoor markets.
