La Saucisserie - Chestnut

Cozy cottage with sunrise views in the Périgord Vert, the green heart of the Dordogne.

Close to Thiviers and Brantome and about an hour from Périgueux and Limoges, we are ideally placed for exploring all the Dordogne has to offer.

Relax in our extensive grounds or enjoy our licensed bar, garden games or shared swimming pool.

This cozy gite sits at the front of the property where you can experience the wonderful sunrises over unspoilt fields and woods. It has an open plan and well-equipped kitchen, lounge and diner.

A mezzanine provides a king double (or twin) bedroom, childrens bedroom with bunkbeds. Rain shower room completes the upstairs. Note ceiling height upstairs is limited to 2.3m (7.7ft), so only the very tallest will need to duck!

Outside you enjoy the sunrise (and evenings) in your own private garden with terrace, BBQ, seating and sun loungers.

Our 2ha (5 acres) of gardens are a haven of peace and tranquility. Relax by the stream or at the top of the hill with stunning views over the Foret de Vieillecour. The newly planted orchards and vegetable garden are bearing fruit already and the newly dug pond is a haven for wildlife which surprises every day.

Our licensed bar, Le Petit Cochon provides a relaxed place to try the locally brewed Perigord Beers over a game of darts or pool.

For children there is plenty of space to run free along with swings, slide, a large in-ground trampoline, giant chess, sit on tractors, table tennis table, badminton net, small football pitch, golf sets and soft archery. There are also sun loungers, picnic tables and seats in the general garden by the main pool to relax and/or to have a chat.

The shared heated main pool is 11m x 5m, fully fenced with security gate and hard cover.

Cycling and walking are popular in the area and there are plenty of trails that run through the village. And if you want to explore the Périgord Vert, you will find plenty of things to do, from the local swimming lake to castles and karting.
