Les gites de La Ferme de La Tour is a beautifully situated, ensemble of honey coloured stone buildings dating back to the 16th century, close to Sarlat and in the heart of Perigord Noir, Dordogne.

Situated in the heart of Perigord Noir, we are in the most scenic region of the Dordogne, in an area known locally as the golden triangle. The location is ideal for the perfect self catering holiday with all of the most beautiful sites and scenery of the Dordogne and Lot on our doorstep. We are close to Sarlat (10kms) yet situated in a rural position with surrounding grounds of woodland and meadow. The breathtaking views over the Dordogne valley will overwhelm you with a feeling of peace and tranquillity. Within the hamlet of La Tour, we are just two minutes from the pretty village of Sainte Nathalene with a bar, hotel, depot pain ( bakery outlet ), restaurants and a small shop.
The historical town of Sarlat-la-Caneda, with more listed buildings than any other town in Europe, is just seven miles away.

An array of street entertainment and a full calendar of events makes Sarlat a visit you should not miss when in the Dordogne. There are also numerous chateaux to visit, caves to explore and pretty market towns to meander through.
The area also offers a wide range of outdoor activities for all ages.. These include walking, canoeing down the Dordogne river (an absolute must), golfing, inland swimming lakes and beaches, tennis, air parks, cycling, mountain biking, quad biking, para gliding, water parks, paint ball, karting, horse riding, hot air ballooning, wine tasting trips, etc etc.
Our self catering gite accommodation is available to let / rent all year round for holiday's in and out of season. All our houses / villas have full WIFI with good reception.
We welcome couples and families alike. Due to the stairs and the terrain we do not feel we can cater for children under five years of age, the elderly or the infirm. We do not accept pets.
This partner has demonstrated and is committed to fast response times, the best rates, and a great guest experience.
We are a family of four who moved to Sarlat in 2004 in search of a new life and new challenges. Well we certainly found both ... A new life and a lot of challenges.. we have enough funny stories and experiences to fill a book and now have a great lifestyle and a business in which we take great pride and enjoy sharing it with others.
Kate and chris purchased this house in 2004
We moved lock stock and barrel to the Sarlat area in 2004, buying a set of empty farm buildings that needed far too much work. But the position and the views had us hooked and nothing came anywhere near a close second. So here we are, several years have past and the renovation and transformation completed, but not without some real highs and lows.
The position is magical and just not possible to capture in a picture.
We have been extremely lucky to find a property with such a formula of character, views and location. We are close to Sarlat, which is the jewel of the Dordogne, yet in a truly rural setting in stunning countryside with easy accessibility of all of the best touristic sites in Dordogne and Lot.
La Ferme de la Tour is the perfect location for a relaxing holiday. We stayed in La Petite Grange which was very comfortable. The gite is very private and has a lovely outdoor seating area and access to a great pool with amazing views. Chris and Kate are fantastic hosts offering local knowledge and advising on places to visit in the area. La Ferme de la Tour is in a great location to visit near by Sarlat, Domme, Beynac and many other beautiful towns and villages which are a short drive away. We had a wonderful holiday and will definitely be coming back!
My Response
Thank you Jenny for your review. It was lovely to meet you and your mother and father and to hear you had such a good time. When customers return it gives us such a huge sense of satisfaction and confirmation that we are getting it right. We look forward to seeing you again soon ( maybe at Christmas !! ) Good luck with the new job.
The property was the perfect size for us as a family of 3. Althoug all the holiday homes are attached as one building, we were nicely tucked away in the corner, with a covered patio (so that we were able to barbecue even in the rain!), but with easy access to the pool and garden.
The location was perfect for exploring the beautiful Dordogne region. We had a fabulous week and will most probably be back - for two weeks net time!
La Petite Grange was immaculate in both cleanliness & presentation in a tranquil setting with wonderful views across the countryside. The property was ideal for us with a young family & the terrace was perfect for "alfresco" dining every evening! Located just outside of the small village of Sainte Nathalene, the location was perfect for peace & quiet yet at the same time ideally located for easy sightseeing excursions to Sarlat, Le Roque Gageau, Souillac, Limeuil and many other local key spots. The kitchen was well appointed, the bathroom included a powerful shower (perfect after a long day sightseeing in the hot weather!) and the masonry BBQ on the terrace was thoroughly used during our stay! We would definitely recommend this property if you are looking to take your holiday in this area.
