DESCRIPTION
The Main House, with an area of over 550m²/ 5920 square feet of usable space, is the largest house in the medieval town of Beynac. It comprises seven bedrooms, six bathrooms and exquisite reception rooms.
The Guest House provides an additional two bedrooms, a bathroom and a games room with a pool.
Both houses are centered on a charming pisé stone terrace, offering an idyllic setting. Two additional beds are also available in the Dovecote near the pool area.
LIVING ROOMS
The dining room and lounge are decorated with large walnut wood fireplaces in the style of Henri IV, while three stone fireplaces provide heating for the other rooms. Lit by the stained glass of a mullioned window, the vast dining room was restored to its original rendering, in two shades of grey.
The large living room with marble floors opens onto a balcony facing west. The view extends over the wrought-iron volutes, over the dry-stone roofs of the old village houses, and beyond to the islands off Beynac, which lie untouched amidst the river for over a kilometer.
For the younger ones, a games room with table football and pool table is set up in the Ground floor of the Guest House.
The kitchen is fully equipped and has its own dining area. You will be able to prepare typical dishes of the region by supplying yourself in the local markets and producers.
