This stunning 17th century chateau is situated 80km south of Limoges in picturesque undulating countryside and is the perefct base to explore the region of Dordogne.
 
The chateau is set in 15 acres of grounds, tranquil gardens and orchards that lead to a lake and private woodland paths, perfect for leisurely strolls and a nature lovers paradise. It has been family owned for over 300 years and is a charming example of gracious 17th century manoir living.
 
Lovingly restored, all the rooms in the chateau are individually furnished to an exceptionally high standard with antiques and authentic French fabrics and silks.

The ancient house dates back to 13th Century but the main bulk is from the 17th. For generations it was home to the Comtes de Tessyiere military family.
