Set in a high meadow in the heart of the Perigord Noir, Gaurenne is a charming lauze roofed farmhouse dating from the early 1700’s. Although it is located within 15 to 30 minutes of the chateaux, medieval towns, and prehistoric cave art for which the Dordogne is famous, the property offers a tranquility that makes sight-seeing a choice but not a necessity. Gaurenne’s quiet beauty allows guests to enjoy views of neighboring hills and hamlets, to walk the property's 22 acres of meadow and woods, and to explore footpaths through the valley and nearby villages. Next to the house are both fruit and walnut orchards, and the covered stone terrace catches summer breezes and provides a gracious place for outdoor dining and relaxing. Behind the house, a large swimming pool looks out onto the countryside.
