Description
A beautifully appointed property nestling in a quiet hamlet in the hills above Urval. The village of Urval huddles around its large Romanesque church, behind which the original communal bread oven has been carefully preserved adding to the charm of a place steeped in an atmosphere of days gone by.
The property is set around a gravelled courtyard - the main house to the right and the guest cottage to the left. The very pretty gardens are mainly laid to lawn with a large selection of shrubs and rose bushes. The infinity pool, with its own covered eating area has views across to woodland.
The front door leads into a hallway laid with genuine pisé floor, to the right of which is a double bedroom with original fireplace and ensuite shower room. To the left of the hallway is a guest bathroom and next to this is an informal snug/sitting room with woodburning stove and comfy sofas. The farmhouse style kitchen also leads off the hallway with an exterior door leading out to the delightful covered eating area with views over the gardens. From the kitchen the main sitting/dining room may be accessed with high beamed ceilings, large fireplace with wood burning stove and terracotta floor tiling. The dining area also has a door leading outside to the covered dining area. Returning to the pisé hallway stairs lead up to two very large ensuite bedrooms with beautiful wooden flooring. Both bedrooms have views to the gardens.
Opposite the main house is a guest cottage for two people with double bedroom, shower room with WC, kitchen corner for making coffee and a small sitting room. The cottage is available for a supplementary (see below).
There is also a covered parking area large enough for three vehicles, a separate shower room with WC and a fully equipped laundry room.

Neighborhood
This property is based in the Dordogne (often referred to by its ancient name "The Périgord"). Although times may have changed over the years the beautiful Dordogne landscape, in one of the most beautiful areas of France, continues to offer something to amaze and delight everyone. This ancient land, deep in the heart of sunny south-west France, is perfect holiday country; a magical place that will reward all those who choose to explore it.
The Périgord Noir where the vast majority of our properties are located, is the 'Jewel in the Crown' of the Dordogne for here, in the triangle formed between the rivers Vézère and Dordogne, you will find the greatest concentration of natural wonders and historic sites, and the loveliest stretches of both rivers. The area is bounded by four famous towns and this property is well situated within this boundary - Sarlat, a medieval treasure house; Périgueux, a thriving and sophisticated small city; Bergerac, shippers of wine since the Middle ages and Monpazier, an extraordinarily well preserved bastide built by King Edward I in 1285.
Less then 1 hour from Bergerac airport, 1.5 hours from Brive airport, 2.5 hours from Bordeaux airport/TGV station and 2.5 hours from Toulouse airport.
At 4kms from Siorac (supermarket, bank & restaurants); 10kms from St Cyprien and 17 kms from Le Bugue (all amenities).

The Quality of Our Houses
We feel that the quality of our houses is considerably above the average available. We have tried very hard to choose those that are well situated, well furnished and offer good value for money.
We know all our properties very well indeed and if you have any questions about them please do not hesitate to ask.
Travel Arrangements
Our clientele is truly international and we have holidaymakers arriving from all over the world. Unfortunately we are therefore not in a position to make travel arrangements and you are free to make your own bookings for the route, date and time of your choice.
Your local travel agent will be more than pleased to help you and will make it a very simple process indeed. Our travel page contains a great deal of useful information and we are, of course, always available to give advice on the best routes, the nearest international airports etc.
Arrival and Departure
Your property will be ready for you to take over between 4pm & 6pm on the first day of your holiday. If you have any problems en route and will be unable to arrive before 6pm it is very important that you telephone our office before this time so that alternative arrangements can be made. We can accommodate a Sunday arrival but there may be a 'call out charge' of Euros 20. You must leave your property before 10am on the day of departure in order that it may prepared for incoming guests.
Breakage & Cleaning Deposit
We request a returnable deposit, which we ask you to pay with your final account, or with your full payment if you are booking less than 9 weeks before the start of your holiday with us. This deposit is noted on the 'Additional Information' section of the individual properties and is held by us on behalf of the owner to cover any breakages, damage and/or extra cleaning necessary. Regarding cleaning, we do ask our clients to leave the property clean. If a house requires extra cleaning we reserve the right on behalf of the owner to deduct a suitable amount from the Breakage Deposit.
Other Services
Final Day Cleaning & Maid Service
Some of our properties have a certain amount of maid service included in the rental price. Maid service in any of our properties is possible, as is a comprehensive Final Day Cleaning Service. Please ask for details.
Linen Hire
We have a limited supply of linen available (bedlinen, bath and hand towels, and tea towels) at a cost of Euros 25 per person.

Pets on Holiday
Several of our home owners accept pets but by no means all. It is therefore important that you confirm with us, at the time of booking, whether pets are accepted in the house of your choice.
Swimming Pools
An ever increasing number of our properties have pools. These are not normally heated and will not be available in the Low Season. The use of swimming pools, which are unsupervised, is entirely at your own risk. All of the pools have security systems. However it remains imperative that parents continue to ensure young children are supervised at all times.
Wildlife
Birds, insects and animals are inevitably present in the countryside around the houses, and sometimes live in inaccessible spaces such as the eaves and attic. We must say that to some extent this is normal and we cannot take any action to correct it. Only when, in our opinion, there is a serious nuisance will action be taken.
Linen
All the houses have blankets or duvets and pillows but, unless otherwise stated, no bedlinen or towels for bathroom or kitchen.
Some properties have linen included in the rental price, in which case it will be detailed in the property description. We also have a limited supply of linen available for hire. Where linen is included in the hire of your property this does not include any changeover of linen during your stay. If extra linen is required the normal hire charge per person applies.
When ordering linen please indicate on the Booking Form single or double, where there is a choice of beds.
Telephones
Most of our properties have telephones. (Please see the individual details). They will be designated either Restricted, Detailed or Metered. Restricted means that the telephone will receive incoming calls worldwide but can only be used to make calls in the local area. Detailed means that there is no restriction placed on the telephone at all and that the owners' bills are itemised. In these cases, when the bill is received (French telephone bills are issued every two months), a copy of the relevant section of the bill will be sent to you and the cost of calls deducted from your breakage deposit, the balance of which will be refunded to you at the same time. With Metered systems the reading will be taken immediately after your departure and the costs deducted from your refundable breakage deposit.
House Books
In each of our properties we leave a house book giving lots of useful information about the house and its surrounding area. Please take a few minutes to read this when you arrive. If you need any more information during your stay you are welcome to call the office at any time.
