The house
We (Robbert-Jan and Maartje) hope to welcome you in our 'fermette', farmhouse. We have renovated one of the 'granges' on our terrain into our new home. Therefor our charming 'fermette' will be available for holiday rentals.
The fermette has its own courtyard ( separated by a wall) with two seating areas of which one is covered. There is enough space on this part of the terrain to stroll around, check on the chickens and pigeons, enjoy the shadow and the view under the trees or take a nap in the hammock.
Altogether the ideal place to enjoy nature, the stillness, for walking but you can also explore the area by mountain bike with the house as starting point.
Lay out house:
Ground floor: You enter into the centrally located kitchen-diningroom. To the left is the attractively furnished living room. On the other side are two bedrooms, separate wc and spacious bathroom with walk in shower. On the first floor is the very large third bedroom.
The kitchen has a wood stove which also controls the central heating in all the rooms including the bathroom.
Furthermore, there is a CD player, television, DVD player, washing machine. The fully equipped kitchen has a gas cooker with oven, dishwasher and microwave, hand blender, toaster and food processor. Coffee lovers can choose between a filter coffee maker or Nespresso machine.
For those who like cooking: we have a nice selection of cookbooks which you can use.

Jeroen from Stiens,
Wat een heerlijk rustige locatie boven op de berg en de grotten van Tourtoirac, aan het einde van een doodlopende weg, midden in de prachtige natuur van de Dordogne. De eigenaren zijn zeer vriendelijk en gastvrij en het onderkomen is schoon en ruim en van alle gemakken voorzien, met o.a. Zwembad, goed internet en Nederlandse tv. We hebben genoten!

Activities
Information about the region:
Tourtoirac, near Hautefort with its beautiful castle, is located in the Dordogne. An area with hills and wide valleys with large meadows. The area is interlaced by the rivers Isle and Auvézère, excellent for those who love fishing and canoeing. The capital of this area is Périgueux. This city is certainly worth a visit: with its narrow alleys and beautiful facades in the preserved old quarters and the Saint-Front Cathedral, which is listed on UNESCO's World Heritage Site. The region is famous for its special local dishes with duck and goose, often laced with truffles. The caves in Tourtoirac, which have been opened for visitors since 2010, are among the largest and most beautiful in France. Furthermore, the abbey, originally dating from 1025, is a special historical monument.
