Perks for the Parents
Discover the quiet Dordogne countryside and reconnect at this historic and quirky cottage in the woods. Sleeps 7. Splash around in the beautiful new contemporary pool, or explore the surrounding woods full of adventure for kids and grown-ups alike. There are hammocks for lazy afternoons - perfect for reading or sneaking in a siesta - and it’s a wonderful spot for cycling, with endless and unforgettable scenic routes. It’s a great home for parents looking for an authentic, historic and traditional vacation home in the south of France.
Why Kids Love it
There’s space to run wild, climb trees, and explore secret paths in the woods - a real-life adventure zone. The brand new pool is perfect for cooling off on sunny days, and there’s plenty of room in the valley for football, frisbee, and family games. At night, they can retreat to their own cosy loft, read comics in a hammock, or wind down with a game on their handheld console. What’s more, when the sky is clear and you can step outside and stargaze at the Milky Way - with no light pollution, the stars feel close enough to touch.
Things to Know
Minimum stay: 3 nights. The hosts recommend staying for at least 2 weeks: it’s the kind of place where you truly settle in, slow down, and make lasting memories. The house is suitable for kids of all ages, with plenty of space to roam and play. Please note that while the pool is a highlight for many families, parental supervision is essential at all times, even for confident swimmers, as it’s not gated. It’s around 2.5 hours from Toulouse and 3 hours from Bordeaux.
About the Location
The house is tucked away in the peaceful countryside near Sarlat, one of the Dordogne’s most charming medieval towns. At the property you’ll feel totally secluded, surrounded by woods, birdsong, and big open skies. It’s perfectly placed for both adventure and relaxation. Explore bustling local markets, canoe along the Dordogne River, or wander through nearby villages like Domme and La Roque-Gageac. Car rental is essential to explore the area.
Accommodation Details
The house has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, set over 2 floors. This warm and welcoming family home features a sociable kitchen with a round table perfect for family dinners. Just off the kitchen is a recently renovated bathroom, and a peaceful ground-floor double bedroom with its own wood-burning stove and sun-drenched breakfast terrace. Up a small staircase is a second double bedroom. You’ll find a characterful old living room with a large fireplace - a cosy spot in cooler seasons and a cool retreat in summer. From here, step straight out to the terrace, garden, and the pool beyond. A ‘secret’ doorway leads to a lofted sleeping platform with three single beds - a dreamy hideout for kids - and another terrace that glows in the evening sun. Outdoors, there’s a shaded area for BBQs. The saltwater pool (10x4m) is gentle on skin, and the surrounding terrace is filled with plants and loungers for the ultimate in family relaxation.
Style Notes
Rural simplicity. This historic home is all about slowing down and soaking up the simple pleasures of country life. Think breakfast in the sun on the terrace, barefoot kids running through the grass, long lunches under the trees, and stargazing with zero light pollution. The interiors are charming and unfussy - a blend of vintage touches, natural materials, and rustic comfort. It’s a place to disconnect from screens, reconnect with each other, and create the kind of family memories that stick.

Dordogne, Southwest France
The green heart of France
The rural farming heart of France is a fantastic destination for a family getaway, amid fields of sunflowers and pretty market towns. The Dordogne river itself is good for canoeing and swimming, and there are castles and chateaux to explore, caves painted with prehistoric images and, this being France, sensational food.
