The core of the property is set in a large garden fully enclosed by the original fortified walls, offering both privacy and security for young kids and pets. Also within the walls lies a chapel, sufficient to seat over 50, the heated swimming pool, and a separate pigeonnier tower. To one side, and set around a separate courtyard is the chai for winemaking, storage & equipment barns, and guardians’ apartment, with the winemaker’s cottage off to a flank. In addition to the main collection of buildings there is an impressive manége close by – started in the 1940’s but never finished, offering further potential to expand. The chateau itself has been lovingly restored to offer 5 formal bedrooms, all of which have ensuites, as well as an additional staff suite on the ground floor. The bedrooms are complemented by wonderful formal reception rooms as befits such a home. The property offers an unusual combination of access, privacy and wonderful views over the Dordogne valley. The 16 hectare vineyard surrounds the chateau, plus an additional 20 hectares or so of pasture – ideal for horses. The wine itself is highly regarded, with AOC Cotes de Bergerac white, red and rosé.
