Dordogne Guest Houses

Purple Périgord Chateau

• 14 guests

• 7 bedrooms

Saint-Martin-des-Combes, Dordogne

Driving up to this 18th-century chateau in the Bergerac region of France might invoke a sense of actually travelling back in time. And if driving in through wrought-iron gates and past decorative moats doesn’t do it, the interior of this beautiful home just might.

Begonia Pink & Periwinkle

• 12 guests

• 6 bedrooms

Douville, Dordogne

By sympathetically restoring this 17th-century chateau, this home strikes a beautiful balance between old and new. Find retro checkerboard floors next to modern farm-style appliances, and exposed beams and chandeliers sitting in sharp contrast with modern bathrooms.

Le Souhait

• 11 guests

• 5 bedrooms

Liorac-sur-Louyre, Dordogne

Stepping onto the terrace of Le Souhait you’ll feel as though the whole of the Dordogne is at your feet, and you’d be right. This fantasy of a farmhouse is set within seventy acres of a vast walnut orchard with a private pool, a wishing well, and alfresco dining, and it’s a brief drive away from the sunny villages and vineyards of the area.
