Bedrooms 1 and 2 have electric radiators and the bathroom and en-suite each have a heated towel rail. A hair-dryer is provided in each bedroom. A small safe is provided in bedroom 1. Quality bed linen is provided along with Egyptian cotton M&S white fluffy towels. If a change of bed linen or towels is required during the week, a charge may be levied. Stays of more than one week include a change of linen and towels on Saturdays. Beds are made-up prior to your arrival.
Our 10m x 3m heated pool is available for the use of our guests. The pool area is not overlooked and provides spectacular views of the Dordogne valley. The pool is fenced and an alarm is in place as required by safety guidelines.
The pool is cleaned daily and heated to a perfect 28c from 1st May to 30th September (possibly earlier and/or later dependent on weather and air temperature).
Our hot tub/spa – Due to high cost of electricity needed to heat the spa (it takes several hours), we charge 10€/day for its use.
Outside is your own private patio with table, chairs, parasol and large Weber charcoal barbecue.
Because the gîte is located on a hillside, there are balconies, steps and the garden is on different levels. Access to the 1st floor of the gîte is by steep stairs and access to the 2nd floor (bedroom 3) is via a spiral staircase. There is a low beam within bedroom 3. The gîte is therefore not recommended for anyone with poor mobility and we only accept children over 5 years old
- Chateau de Beynac: only 5 minutes drive from La Baronnie Gîtes, this wonderful 12th century castle is worth a visit. Drive up to the top and admire the views along the Dordogne valley. Beynac was held by Richard the Lionheart from 1189 until his death in 1199.
- La Dordogne – There are several river beaches within 10 minutes drive from our property, along with several canoe hire companies.
- Balloon flights take place locally most evenings during the summer and light aircraft pleasure flights are available from Bergerac airport.
- Golf – There are two pay-and-play golf clubs in nearby Siorac-en-Périgord and Saint-Germain-de-Belvès.
