About this property

600 year old Perigord Farmhouse 5 Bedrooms & private pool

Ideal for multi generational groups.
Located in the traditional old village of Bayac, close to Beaumont du Perigord in the picturesque Couze Valley and within 1 hour's drive of almost all the Dordogne's famous historic sites, our farmhouse is a great base to explore from. Close by are Lalinda, Molieres, Le Buge and Beaumont and historic chateau a stones throw away.

With its beautiful steep sided Perigordian roof this large property has 5 bedrooms, many with original features, including the original 15th century upstairs fireplace. The interior is restored in a classic French style but with many modern extras as we have gas central heating throughout. We are limited to no more than 10 persons.
 
"Best Pool Ever", is what many of our guests tell us. The private pool and gardens are enclosed with lockable gates to keep youngsters safe. There is an adjoining, shaded play area, with trampoline and swings. There is ample secure parking for up to 3 cars, 3 large south facing patios, a solar shower poolside, large gas barbecue and plenty of shade in the gardens and walnut grove. An 8,000 square metre paddock to the rear gives room for sports.

The pool is private and south facing, warm in summer 30C +. Size, a generous 8M by 5 M with a depth of 1.2M (4ft) to ensure younger children can play safely. Children must be supervised at all times. Large pool patios with sun loungers, tables chair and parasols. The pool is fully automatic and is cleaned daily, free of charge. No need to heat it.

Nearby is the village adventure playground for children, with swings, slides, rope walks etc. Next to it are the Boules courts.

NEW Feature. The Mayor has recently installed an outdoor Table Tennis table on the village green. There is also a new Pump Track for cycles and skateboards. Younger children must be supervised.

Both Couze and Beaumont have local restaurants. Lalinda, just 10 minutes away by car has many good local restaurants, serving lunch for 15 euros. Newly opened Canoe and Pizzeria is also in Lalinda.

'Pick your own' fruit and vegetables from the well-stocked organic garden. Children DVDs and books for the adults and board games provided.
 
Drive to us, (full directions provided), or fly to Bergerac Airport, just 25 minutes drive from us, with flights from European & UK airports. 

This is a large and spacious farmhouse, with lots of room for everyone. It is not a small gite or chalet property.
 
Take advantage of the new pricing for 2024.

This is a quiet and ancient French village. There are caves (closed), where humans lived in the village 22,000 years ago during the Ice Age.

We love the people and have been here 23 years.

IMPORTANT - All bookings for July and August must be for units of one or two weeks or multiples of this. Also all arrival and departures are on Saturdays. Guests can vary this, but they must pay for the whole week. Any booking that does not complete a full week will not be accepted - thank you.

lovely place
The house is lying in a small quiet village. 10 min. from shops and restaurants. The kids (and we) enjoyed the pool a lot. They house is big and stays cool. Philip has been a great host! Very friendly and open to share advice on things to do in the area. The house has everything you need inlcuding TV and good wifi inside and out. The dog is very friendly, also for the kids. We had a great relaxing time! Thanks Phil!

Vacances août 2021
Un très beau séjour d'une semaine dans une superbe région à la gastronomie délicieuse. Notre hôte Philip a été exemplaire en tout points. Maison parfaitement propre, un gros plus pour la fourniture des draps de lits ainsi que serviettes de bain et piscine. En bonus, nous avions l'accès au jardin potager pour se régaler de fruits et légumes. Dans une zone très calme nous avons pu profiter de la piscine et passer de très bonnes soirées BBQ. Very good job Philip for the overall quality and warm welcome 👍👍👍

About the host

Hosted by Philip Walker

Host profile image
We found this old farm in the year 2000. It had been a working farm and needed a lot of love and care. Twenty years on, it is now our home. Some parts of the house are over 700 years old. The house has a character and personality and has seen the 100 Years War, The French Revolution and World Wars. We think it is pleased with what we have done.

Why they chose this property

This part of the Perigord is quiet and very traditional. There is great local food and drink, wonderful wildlife and huge local forests. The local French people, some of whom have families going back hundreds of years are the best, helpful, peaceful and honest. There is no crime here and no graffiti. It is like the world used to be.

What makes this property unique

It's history and the stories it can tell about the hundreds of people who have lived in it over the last 700 hundred years. Originally, in the Middle Ages, the people lived upstairs and the animals lived below. Not recently of course.
