The building is a recently restored typical perigordian barn of 250m². This is the southern side of an old 18th century farm complex which has been carefully restored by its present owners who live in another but completely separate part of the buildings and assume themselves the management of the gîte. There is a 1500m² garden to play in or to lie in the hammock in the shade of the trees while enjoying the view of the countryside. Two large bay windows open directly from the living room onto a 75m² stone covered patio facing due south but protected from the sun by sun sails. A large wood covered table that can seat 14 and and a built in stone barbecue make it an ideal place for relaxed summer meals
