About this property

16th Century Manoir; Large Ensuite Bedrooms, Original Features, Many Steps!

A 100 meter drive leads from the main D57 road to the manoir with plenty of parking to the left in front of the barn. Enter the tower on mostly 500 year old, well worn, stone spiral steps to the hall. The ground floor boasts 4m high beamed ceilings. The dining room retains original 16th century fireplace, the salon is dominated by an immense fireplace and displays hand painted ceiling beams. The kitchen is furnished with all the utensils, pots glasses, cups and dishes you'll need. Meals can be enjoyed in the kitchen, dining room, or on the patio with direct access from the kitchen and salon.
There are six large ensuite bedrooms, some of which retain 1970's style and show their age, yet are still comfortable by modern standards.
The 5m x 9m unheated swimming pool is about 40 meters from the house and open from May to September. Two walled gardens, one of which is gated and provides a contained space for children or pets to romp. Direct views of chateaux Marqueyssac, Castelnaud, and Beynac to the south and west await you, and you'll likely see hot air balloons in the mornings and evenings.
We are happy to offer advice for activities in the area, nature walks from the house, tourist sites, restaurants, and we are especially bicycling friendly.
Bakery, butcher, restaurants and convenience stores are within 3km at Beynac and Castelnaud while Supermarkets are just 8km away in Sarlat and 12km in St Cyprien. Linens, towels and beach towels, as well as end of week cleaning is included with the price.
We think that you will love it here so much you won't want to go home!

About the host

Hosted by Daniel Westerdale

Host profile image
I'm American, Karen is British. We lived in North Yorkshire, England from 1996-2019. I'm a keen cyclist and we both love to travel. I'm retired and Rochecourbe is our first experience with renting out our property on a weekly basis. Since buying the house in 2016, and moving here in 2019, we've made many improvements to the house and grounds ourselves and hope to continue to make Manoir de Rochecourbe better every year. - Dan

Why they chose this property

Fantastic views of chateaux Beynac, Castelnaud, and Marqeyssac, reinforce that this is a special location, perfect for visiting many of the most popular sites. The position of the house below the western slope of a hill prevents the sun from blazing too early, and provides for sunny evenings. Frequent appearance of hot air balloons in the early mornings or evenings add to the local specific charm.
Local convenience store, butcher and boulangerie are only 2.5km in Beynac, and several supermarkets are just 10km away in Sarlat or St Cyprien. Access to the house is straightforward, easy, and we have plenty of room to park several vehicles. We are just off a main road, so getting around the area is especially easy.

What makes this property unique

Manoir de Rochecourbe has a simple floor plan with impressive features: high, beamed ceilings, painted beams, large ensuite bedrooms, spiral stone steps in the tower, and of course the two original 16th century fireplaces and the huge fireplace in the living room. The proximity to Sarlat, the Dordogne River, Lascaux Caves, and wine regions of Cahors and Bergerac make it ideally situated to enjoy the entire Dordogne region. We own 4 hectares of fields and woods on the slope above the house which are open for exploration, walking dogs, chasing butterflies, or just finding a quiet spot to relax.
