About this property

Enchanting Dordogne Manor House | Private Heated Pool & Vast Garden

About this space


Create unique memories with family or friends in this beautiful French Villa. Perfect for family gatherings or groups of up to 10 friends, this flexible home offers a versatile sleeping arrangement to suit your needs.


The charming residence offers the best of both worlds—nestled in the heart of town, providing a tranquil retreat with its own lush garden and private heated pool, where birdsong and the rustling of nearby woodland, which extends across the upper part of the expansive garden, create an idyllic countryside sanctuary.




The Space


The space consists of 5 bedrooms - three of which feature elegantly designed en suite bathrooms, each with its own distinct style and character. The standard layout includes two doubles and three twins, but it can be adjusted to up to four doubles and one twin—or any mix in between!


Enjoy the convenience of a fully equipped kitchen and dining room. For al fresco dining, choose between the beautiful courtyard or the spacious terrace.


Unwind by the private heated pool, or enjoy friendly competition in the vast games room — once the grand barn of this historic country estate, formerly the largest farm in the region — featuring darts, ping pong, and table football.


The property also offers ample parking space, accommodating up to three vehicles comfortably.






Other things to note


Ribérac comes alive every Friday with its vibrant market, perfect for exploring local produce, crafts, and culture.


For outdoor enthusiasts, there’s tennis, canoeing, and an exciting water park nearby. The surrounding area is rich in history and picturesque countryside, ideal for relaxing walks or scenic drives, and conveniently located close to charming towns offering delightful local experiences and beautiful vineyards.


Depending on the time of year, you can also enjoy lively pop concerts and enchanting celebrations of ancient music, adding a unique cultural touch to your stay.

A great property with spacious rooms with eclectic furniture.

A lovely stay in the dordogne

We were just delighted with our stay here in Riberac. The house is as gorgeous as it looks in the photos. Every room beautifully decorated with its own character. it is grand but very comfortable, we especially enjoyed gathering in the kitchen and the living room as well as by the pool. The pool is lovely in itself, but the gorgeous garden surrounding it makes it spectacular. The location is also terrific for visiting the many fascinating sites of the region while offering the easy convenience of local shops. We also cannot say enough about Judith, our host, who was extremely helpful and accommodating throughout our stay. We highly recommend this property. We were a large group and there was ample room. Thank you Judith for introducing us to the Dordogne in spectacular fashion.

Jolie maison mais des soucis

Une belle maison mais tout près d'une église qui fait sonner les cloches très fort plusieurs fois par jour, quasiment à chaque heure dès 7 ou 8h le matin et très longuement. La maison est située en plein centre ville ce qui ne se voit pas sur les photos. Les deux plus grandes chambres donnent sur la rue qui est très bruyante dès le matin. Le service n'est donc pas vraiment en rapport avec le prix. La propriétaire anglaise nous a également accusé 10 jours après la fin de notre séjour d'avoir emporté des serviettes de piscine et a prélevé de l'argent sur notre caution malgré nos dénégations.

Excellent sejour

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié cette ancienne et très grande bâtisse bien rénovée, avec 5 grandes chambres, beaucoup d'espaces a vivre, sa cours intérieure, le magnifique jardin et sa piscine, le tout situé en plein centre de la petite ville de Riberac, tout commerce et restaurant accessible a pied. Merci Judith et Marie pour cet excellent sejour.

Spacious and comfortable mansion house in a quiet corner of Riberac

The house is exactly as described and the owner, Judith, was very helpful with information before our stay. While grand and spacious the house is comfortable with a well equipped kitchen and contemporary bedrooms and bathrooms. The house is very secure and in a quiet corner of the center of Riberac - a pleasure to walk to get our morning croissants! Riberac is a pleasant town in a beautiful part of the Northern Dordogne. A very pleasant stay.

The property has a lovely homely but quite grand feel.

We had a fantastic week in this house, there was plenty of room for all the guests including room for the teenagers to escape to. The games room and pool area are first class and the house lovely and clean with tasteful decor. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Why they chose this property

In front of the house you would never guess what lies behind. From the street you see a classic facade with steps up to the front door and windows symmetrically to left and right. Inside, the house is beautifully decorated and on a large scale which is not at all intimidating. Then you go into a very large courtyard where you can sit or sunbathe or dine al fresco and next to a garden which you would never expect to find even in a small town. It's so wonderfully peaceful and pretty and all you can hear is the birds!
