| Brief description: |
Les Prinquières is a collection of 19th century farm buildings, which have been converted to 4 luxurious gîtes, situated in a rural location between Gourdon & Sarlat & is 3.5km from the Dordogne border, with the Dordogne River being just 5.5km away. |
| Full description: |
Les Prinquières is set in our own 8 acres of tranquil countryside, yet still very close to all the major tourist attractions & activities in the region. The rear of the gîtes look onto a large grassed area and our own woodland, whilst the front of the property over looks our own pasture and onto farmland.
There is a 10 x 5 metre floodlit pool with terraces to lounge in the summer sun, a pool house with fridge and covered dining area, complete with traditional barbecue. Plenty of sun beds, chairs and parasols are provided for your comfort.
In the shade of the trees, there is a traditional Boules court with lighting to play in the long summer evenings whilst Badminton and Table tennis are also available.
Each gite is comfortably furnished and has a fully equipped kitchen with full gas cooker, fridge/freezer, dishwasher (not le Four à Pain & Le Noyer) microwave, and washing machine. Bed linen is provided and changed weekly. Outside each gite is a private terrace with gas barbecue and table and chairs, sorry no pets.
Weekly barbecue’s are organised by the pool with wine and salad provided, for any guests wishing to join in.

If you are like markets it is possible to spend every day of the week at a market. During the summer months many of the villages have music festivals that go on into the night with lovely family atmospheres.
Take a boat trip through the ‘Vallee of the Dordogne’, cycle or kayac to see the picturesque riverside hamlets, or just laze by the pool in the peaceful surroundings, read a book or take a dip to cool off, and round the day off with a barbecue, either by the pool or in the privacy of your own patio area. |
