About this house rental

Friday Changeover.
This is a charming property full of character, and beautifully furnished throughout, with many choices of fabulous outside terraces, eating places and quiet areas to sit back and totally immerse yourself in nature. If you are a couple on your honeymoon, friends on vacation, or a family wanting some good quality time together, then there is something for everyone at La Borie Grande!
You have the feel of the 17th century, but all the upgrades and comfort of home. Ideal for those seeking relaxation and outdoor activities.
The large heated swimming pool area is completely secluded and for your sole use. It is fenced, gated and with a high hedge all around for complete privacy, also gives complete peace of mind for the safety and security of children. There are roman steps into the pool and a diving board at the other end. The area has ample comfy sun-loungers with cushions, parasols and an oak pavilion to relax inside when you want to escape from the heat of the day!
The mature gardens inside the pool area have mature trees and bushes.
Within the garden, amongst the orchard there are swings, an enclosed trampoline, table tennis table and a play house to keep the children entertained and occupied for many hours so that you too can relax and unwind!
4 large bedrooms. Master bedroom with king-size bed has its own en-suite shower room, double wardrobes, dressing table and a fabulous view of the valley and of the raised terrace below! A further double bedroom with a french relaxed feel about it over looks the orchard. There are 2 large bright twin bedrooms with open views of the gardens and the beauty beyond. A separate shower room upstairs and there is a downstairs bathroom with a corner bath and double wash basins.
This delightful kitchen feels like home from home with a large table seating 8 and has all the modern appliances, including a large electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher, toaster, fridge, coffee machine etc, and the French doors open out onto the breakfast terrace with an undercover seating area.
There is a separate cool laundry room which has a washing machine, fridge freezer, iron and board and ample shelf storage.
The very large, bright living area has a beautiful antique table and chairs, seating 8 comfortably, a piano, and a dresser. There is also an inglenook fireplace, with a widescreen tv, dvd player and selection of dvd's, 2 sofas and 2 armchairs. This leads out onto the raised terrace which looks out over the open fields, where the deer come and graze happily away! The night skies are completely mesmerizing! They are filled with so many stars, that when you can gaze up at them you can watch the satellites cruise across the skies, all whilst under the flow of the milky way!!
The middle terrace has a BBQ and Pizza oven, large table and chairs so you can all chat together whilst waiting for lunch and dinner to be cooked!
Set in 80 acres of secluded meadow and woodland, a safe and peaceful environment with large mature gardens surrounding the property on all sides with fantastic views over-looking the countryside. Lots of walks in the cool and private peaceful woods.
Shaded private terraces for outside dining or curling up with a good book in the hammock, listening to the tree crickets whilst you slowly doze off for a siesta. There is something for everyone to enjoy here with many guests returning year after year!
The swimming pool is closed between the months of mid October through to the end of April.
Just a 20 min stroll to our local Bastide village, Villefranche du Perigord, has many shops, cafes and restaurants. It is one of the oldest and prettiest Bastide villages, dating back to the 12th Century, which still has its cobbled streets with tiny alleyways and large covered market square.
A real step back in time, where you can enjoy the fresh produce from the friendly local people. It is only 12 kms from Monpazier, 30 mins from Sarlat, Beynac, Roque de Gaceac, Domme, Les Eyzies and the Dordogne river. Great place for cycling with quiet roads.

La Borie Grande was the perfect place for us. A large private and very beautiful old French house equipped with everything you could possibly need and with gorgeous gardens to Potter around. The welcome basket of goodies was v appreciated after a long a drive. A lovely welcome from Tracy whom was always on hand if needed. We enjoyed watching the sun go down over the glorious views each evening on the deck and the pool was a godsend on a very hot week! Eating outside for breakfast, lunch and dinner with the amazing views was a real treat. While it feels like the house is lovely and secluded in the woods it’s only a 10 minute walk into the pretty village of Villefranche du Perigord for baguettes and groceries. The house is also in a great location for visiting the popular sites of the Dordogne . We would love to return and would highly recommend. Thank you Tracy for having us!

A warm, friendly welcome on arrival. Stunning setting, spacious, cool house with everything we needed. Spotlessly clean pool, kids park fantastic and lots of open spaces to run around. So many places to visit in the area, will definitely be back.

This was our third stay at La Borie, and it is better than ever. Tracy has added to what was an already brilliantly landscaped area, to include a tree shaded bbq and pizza oven dining space, but better still a deck projecting out over the valley slopes with lovely views and comfortable furniture. Lounging out there after dark, watching satellites and shooting stars, with a back drop of the milky way and a glass of port in hand was wonderful. The pool area, hidden away behind high hedges, is also lovely. La Borie is a comfortable and spacious old farm house which feels more like someone's home than a holiday rental. Villefranche itself is a 5 minute drive or a pleasant 20 minute stroll down through the trees. Small, old and quaint, it's worth the stroll to obtain fresh bread, or a coffee and ice cream. There are two modest mini-markets and a general store; enough available to buy in provisions for a few days. We love this place!
