Beyond a rolling sweep of mown lawns and ancient stone walls, Mas Saint-Cernin rests serenely amidst a beautiful two-hectare estate. This sensitively restored farmhouse and its charming pigeonnier offer a quintessentially French getaway for extended families or a group of friends seeking space and character, only a 5-minute drive from Issigeac, one of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’.

The main house and the pigeonnier sit opposite one another, 20 metres apart, each with its own lovely dining terrace. On the other side of the estate, days unfold around the generous 13-metre swimming pool, completely private and framed by a large sun terrace with loungers for soaking up the southern warmth.

Inside the main house, a soaring open-plan living and dining area brings rustic elegance to life with its exposed stone walls and double-height ceilings. The farmhouse kitchen is equipped for long, lazy meals, while four bedrooms and three bathrooms offer comfortable privacy.

The pigeonnier, a traditional tower lovingly renovated, is a delightful addition with its own kitchen-diner, relaxed sitting area and two pretty bedrooms. Thoughtfully appointed with UK satellite TV, Wi-Fi and other modern touches throughout, both properties combine authentic French character with everyday comfort.

Guests can wander the vast gardens, dine al-fresco on the stone terraces or sip a quiet glass of local wine as evening nears. With generous grounds to roam, and cosy interiors for cooler evenings, Mas Saint-Cernin invites you to slow down and savour each moment.

Located on the border of the Dordogne and Lot-et-Garonne, this holiday abode is perfectly positioned for visiting bastide villages, market towns and local vineyards. Fall in love with nearby Issigeac, brimming with bakeries, cafés, restaurants and its renowned Sunday market. Heading north, Bergerac offers gastronomic restaurants, river trips and medieval charm less than 20 minutes by car.

Whether pottering around some of France’s prettiest villages, canoeing along the Dordogne or simply soaking up the delightful surroundings of your holiday home, Mas Saint-Cernin offers a restful setting in one of the region’s most charming corners.
