The house consists of a large open plan living/dining/kitchen area with stone fireplace and woodburner. It is fully equipped. Bathroom with bathtub and overhead shower, toilet and washbasin. On first floor, one very large bedroom with one double bed, two single beds and baby cot. WiFi connection available. Dogs welcome. Open all year. Ideal for couple or young family seeking peace and nature far from the madding crowd.
The whole house has been tastefully renovated and decorated in traditional style: exposed beams, apparent stone, hand carved furniture and other delightful features.
Outside, you can enjoy a large covered terrace with barbecue and garden furniture. There is also a large, fully fenced garden with established trees. All this overlooks the surrounding fields and woods. For fisher persons, there are two private carp lakes[two minutes walk] where you fish on a no kill/no fee basis.
The accommodation offered at Les Chambaudies Sud, roughly translated: The Beautiful South Lands, is situated in the great forest of Fayat, an ancient broadleaf woodland and rolling countryside. It is on a very quiet country lane serving only a few houses further up the lane. No through traffic as the lane loops back on itself. Nestled in a fold to the south side of the old hill fort of the Puy de Bar, now with its chapel and lookout at the summit. This is a beautiful, unspoiled corner, lost in France. The property is a detached fully renovated 200 year old farm cottage, set in a very large totally fenced garden. The garden has garden furniture, established great oaks and sweet chestnut trees. The English owner's living quarters are across the road (not compromising the cottages privacy). This means he will be available for first hand help and advice if needed, but he knows how to be discreet! Beyond the garden are meadows containing the owner's hobby farm with pygmy goats, ducks, chickens and rabbits running freely about. The great charm of this area is its magnificent nature: the woods, lakes and streams and the peace and quiet. There are literally hundreds of lakes hidden among the forested hills. Two of the nearby lakes (2 minute walk) are at the disposal of the guests for carp fishing, on a no/kill no/fee basis. Streams and small rivers criss-cross the forest. Endless miles of forest paths await you, where you are more likely to see wild boar or deer than another human being. The area is a bird watcher's paradise with majestic birds of prey circling the skies above. The woods and fields are full of a fantastic variety of birds. Bird watching guests are amazed at the range of birds that can be seen from the terrace of the cottage.
In the village of Chateau Chervix (3 miles/ 4.5km), there is a general food store/post office/bank facility and bar. At about 7miles / 10km, there is a large supermarket, doctors' surgery, bakery, bars and several restaurants.
You will be within easy reach of numerous beautiful sites to visit for which information is readily available at the cottage: castles, prehistoric sites, gardens, sites of natural interest, medieval villages, river valleys (Dordogne, Vezere, etc) and many more.
Sporting activities close by include: horse riding, swimming, tennis, canoeing, cycling, and adventure parks.
