About this property

Dordogne Chalet Near Forest

Escape to the heart of the Dordogne at this charming lakeside chalet, nestled on the 360-hectare Domaine d'Essendiéras. Ideal for couples or families, it offers stunning nature views, direct access to forest trails, and peaceful mornings on a private, covered terrace.

Relax by the shared heated pool (open May–September), let the kids enjoy the play area and trampoline, or explore the estate by bike. With a high chair available on request and plenty of outdoor space, this chalet is both family- and pet-friendly.

The village of Excideuil is just 5 km away, offering cozy cafés and weekly markets. Discover Dordogne’s cultural gems—from the prehistoric caves of Tourtoirac and Lascaux to the grand Château de Hautefort and medieval Ségur-le-Château. Day trips to Périgueux or Brantôme offer rich history and regional cuisine.

Dogs are warmly welcomed here. Stroll through scenic trails or take your pup on a unique adventure to Les Grottes de Presque, a spectacular cave system where leashed dogs can join a guided 40-minute tour filled with awe-inspiring rock formations.

Whether you're unwinding on the terrace with local wine, playing tennis on-site, or exploring the rolling countryside, this chalet offers a restful and authentic Dordogne escape.
