Idyllic house by lake at the gateway to the Dordogne (Périgord)





Les Sources – a private lakeside escape in the heart of Southwest France Tucked away among rolling hills and ancient woodlands lies Les Sources: a former trout farm turned peaceful holiday haven. Set on 9 hectares of private land, with a sparkling lake nearly 5 hectares in size and two homes right on the water’s edge, this is the kind of place where time slows down.

The main house is spacious and full of character, with a large kitchen, cosy living area, multiple bedrooms, and sun-drenched terraces—always with that tranquil view of the lake close by.

Just a few steps away, the guesthouse offers two double bedrooms, a simple kitchen, and its own bathroom. A washer and dryer are available for all guests.

The property is always rented privately—just for your group. If you're coming with 8 or more, the guesthouse is included for an extra €200.

Want to explore the surroundings? You'll find a local bakery and pub just 2 km away, with charming medieval villages, castles and peaceful country roads perfect for walking or cycling. The historic Richard the Lionheart route passes nearby, ideal for a day out.

But in truth, most guests hardly ever leave the property. With swimming, reading, and doing absolutely nothing on offer, there’s really no need to.

Included: high-speed fibre internet, smart TV and a charging station for electric vehicles.

Echt even tot rust komen

Deze locatie was zo mooi in de natuur! Prachtige vlinders gezien die van alle kanten vandaan kwamen. Het hele terrein was een ontdekking voor zowel de kinderen als de volwassenen. Ondanks de regen hebben we een fijn verbmijf gehad. Grappig toen we de eerste keer in het water sprongen en dat het zo ondiep was haha. Maar daardoor voor de kinderen weer veilig. Alleen zijn de badkamers wat toe aan liefde. De rest van het huis was schoon en goed te vertoeven Wij hebben het heerlijk gehad.

Sprookjesachtige plaats

We hadden een fantastisch verblijf. Het is een paradijsje met een heerlijk meer erbij. Wij hebben gesupt en gezwommen.

Uitstekende locatie, zowel voor groot als klein. In alle rust genieten van de natuur. Met een prachtig uitzicht op het meer en eventueel afkoelen in het meer. We zijn zeker van plan om nog is te gaan. Een echte aanrader voor wie van de natuur houdt. Top locatie!

Alle heerlijkheid op een plek

Uitstekende plek voor verblijf van een familie. ‘s Morgens beginnen met zwemmen in een prachtig meer, lekker uithangen op de terrassen rond het water, bij regen op het balkon met prachtige uitzicht, of binnen bord spelletjes doen. Heel veel mogelijkheden. Met dank aan de eigenaars en beheerders die alles uit de kast hebben getrokken om TV en Wifi problemen na blikseminslag snel op te lossen. Misschien wel de belangrijkste aanbeveling; een plek om terug te keren.

un lieu magique

La maison a l'ambiance d'une maison de famille, confortable et de bon goût, la situation est superbe et rare. Petit bémol: le mobilier de la maison annexe n'est pas aussi joli que le reste de la propriété. Et manque de chaleur dans sa décoration.
