About this property
If the world has made you weary, an escape to this villa in the Dordogne will set things right again. The detached spa building features a Jacuzzi and Finnish-style sauna, where your tension will melt away. Once you’ve had enough heat, take a dip in the private pool surrounded by flowers. Inside, you’ll feel you’ve stepped into the pages of a magazine; sense of relaxed elegance pervades this three bedroom country charmer. And always, the outdoor spaces will call you to come breathe deeply among the trees.
Located in the commune of Vézac, you’ll find no shortage of idyllic sights to see nearby: the gardens of Château de Marqueyssac are only 3 km away. We also recommend visiting Sarlat (5 km), a medieval town with gardens and an excellent market where you’ll sample the region’s specialties of foie gras, confit d'oie, and mushrooms.
Sporting types will find all manner of activities to suit them; drive 6 km to Vitrac to rent bicycles, or ride horses, golf or go to the riverside beach. Long days spent touring and sporting in the French countryside demand a holiday villa where you can seamlessly refresh and recharge - Les Cypres.
The Dordogne area of France is one of the most beautiful and one of the most popular. It has lovely countryside interspersed with medieval, bastide towns where fairytale châteaux rise from the morning mist - it is also a great region for food lovers: all the Perigordian specialities such as Foie Gras, confit d'oie, canard and mushrooms of all types are in abundance.
Considered one of the most beautiful villages of France and lying on the banks of the Dordogne River, Beynac (4 km) is a gorgeous gem, steeped in history which hosts a majestic medieval chateaux and an interesting archeological park.
Sarlat (5 km) is a lovely medieval town, with pebbled streets, a number of ancient buildings, beautiful gardens and lively markets on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Other lively interesting local markets can be found in Domme (Thursday), St. Cyprien (Sunday) and Les Eyzies (Monday)
On top of it all excellent restaurants and historical sites are all located within a short driving distance.
The whole region is a true haven for nature and sport lovers alike offering a wide array of outdoor activities, from horse-back riding, to tennis, mountain-biking, golfing and watersports, not to mention the number of hiking and fishing opportunities. The owner is a fishermen and will be happy to give you tips on the best spots.

April
We had a wonderful stay. The house is beautifully decorated and was the perfect size for us (2 couples traveling together). We enjoyed visiting the local villages and being able to return to the home and relax by the pool as the surroundings are quite lovely and peaceful. Our husbands enjoyed the spa and sauna as well. The home is located close to all the villages which made everything easily accessible and the caretakers were super easy to work with.

Charming, classic French house with nice jacuzzi in a fabulous location. So much to do in the local area and a 5 minute drive to Sarlat.
