The traditional stone-built farmhouse stands in its own private grounds of over 1 acre, and comes complete with its own large enclosed private swimming pool (16*7M). Close to the historic town of Bergerac, on the edge of Pecharmant vineyards, it is a prime base from which to visit all the touristic places of interest in the Dordogne as well as the Percharmant, Monbazillac and Bordeaux vineyards.

Le Cireysou has been renovated in a manner that provides all the comforts of modern life yet retains the original charm and character of the original 300 year old farm building.

The farmhouse stands at the end of a quiet country lane with little to disturb you other than the nearby cows and occasional tractor.

The house itself stands in its own grounds with lots of trees and grass for the children to explore and a wonderfully large swimming pool sufficient for the most ardent swimmer or sun lounger!

Grounds & Swimming pool: The house is surrounded by local farmers fields providing a very peaceful and relaxing environment rich in wildlife. The grounds around the house cover 6000m2 so there is plenty of space to play games (football, cricket, table tennis etc.) on the grass or to lie under one of the many trees.

The swimming pool is 16m long by 7m wide and ranges from 1-2m deep which makes it a very large and enjoyable pool in which to swim. Fully surrounded with decking on all 4 sides. Situated approx 6m from the house the pool area is completely enclosed and private with a patio area and covered terrace with table tennis table. To prevent any allergies we have chosen a water treatment without chlorine which is provided through a salt machine system. We are environmental friendly and we only use organic pest killers (where absolutely necessary) and no weed killers.

Wine Tasting & 'Cuisine Perigourdine': Le Cireysou lies at the crossroads of the Bergerac, Monbazillac and Pecharmant vineyards. Pecharmant is the most prestigious Bergerac Appellation Controlee and is fast becoming a sort after wine. If you prefer sweet wine, then head straight to the vineyards of Monbazilliac. A visit to the famous Chateau Monbazilliac is an absolute must and maybe you can even combine it with one of their summer concerts. Locals will be happy to explain the vinification process and show you their cellars which have been in their family for generations and maintained with great love and care. You are also only 1 hour away from the stunningly picturesque medieval village of Saint-Emilion and within easy access of many other famous Bordeaux vineyards.

Do not forget to enjoy the famous “Cuisine Perigourdine” making the most of the region's duck population - the 'foie gras' is to die for! 'Magret' is also excellent on the BBQ! We can recommend local producers if you wish.

Dordogne touristic attractions : The property is situated close to the Dordogne river. You can follow the river up to Sarlat (60 minutes) and visit some beautiful places enroute: Beynac & Cazenac, Domme and its ramparts, La Roque Gageac and Sarlat itself.

Some outstanding features at Le Cireysou!
- high ceilings with wooden beams in the traditional Perigoudine architecture
- a large outdoor shaded terrace with view of the garden and swimming pool
- large grounds with various tree species, ideal to play cricket, football or just relax under
- very large pool with salt water to reduce the risk of allergies and the impact on the environment
- the pool is surrounded by a composite wood decking, made out of min 60% recycled wood fibers and low impact polypropylene.
- the house is furnished in a traditional way with old Perigourdine furniture
- large fireplace in the living room where stories used to be told
- above the living room, there is a spacious mezzanine where the tobacco leaves used to dry, to read, rest or watch television
- a stunning stone external staircase leads to what used to be the kitchen, now a large bedroom with an 'oeil de boeuf' (round window) above the old stone sink. Food was cooked in the large fireplace.
- the house has now been fitted with a large kitchen with breakfast bar separating a dining area from the preparation area.
- the kitchen has terracotta tiles on the floor which have been made locally and were the traditional flooring in Perigord.
- we have equipped the house with robust outdoor furniture made from Indian teak, so that you can enjoy and relax in a luxury environment.
- a large outdoor permanent BBQ has been fitted for you to combine gourmet French food and outdoor life. In the long summer evenings it is nice to sit and relax around an aperitif on the terrace whilst the meat is cooking.
- A special wine barrel to stand around a glass of wine
- the bedrooms are large with their original wooden floor and wooden beams.
- we are very environmentally conscious: the house is fully equipped with LED lights, we don't use any pesticide or fertilisers.

The lovely Dordogne
Le Cireysou is a lovely old house set in a large garden. We did enjoy our stay despite a few drawbacks. The area is quiet apart from a little traffic to local houses. There is a charming village two minutes drive away with shops, friendly bar with pool table etc. Easy access to lovely villages along the Dordogne The house itself could do with a little maintenance. We had been looking forward to the lovely pool, the main reason we had chosen this property. The pool guy/gardener informed us it had been damaged by the previous tenants. This meant cold water ran consistently to top up the pool. The pool ladders were broken, the liner uneven and the decking quite dangerous. The book of house rules informed us that we were expected to clean the house and replace used things. The previous tenants had not taken this to heart. Crockery and utensils needed a wash before use. Bed linen didn’t smell clean. We had been promised dish washer tablets which were missing and NO LOO ROLLS! After a long journey this would have been very welcome. There were a few maintenance issues which didn’t bother us greatly but for the rental price, you would expect them to be fixed. For example, flooding outside the kitchen window when water was used. The outside dining table had a problem with falling beetle debris from above. The main bathroom had a problem with water channelling along the shower edge onto the carpet which was rotting. Reception for TV is none existent. WIFI is poor. We have stayed in old buildings before but there was something very large Coypu ? above the bedrooms, in the loft. My son had to change room because of the noise so he could get some sleep. This all sounds rather damming but we did enjoy our stay and for want of a little maintenance and care, this could be a really fabulous holiday. We were disappointed and thought that it wasn’t value for money.

Fabulous property
Not having been for a couple of years, we had forgotten just how amazing this place is with its charm and character combined with modern appliances to make it a real home from home. The swimming pool was an absolute godsend during the recent heat wave. Nice new shower too in the main bathroom.

Charmante et spacieuse maison avec grande piscine privée
Nous sommes restées une semaine dans cette grande maison typique, bien entretenue, avec tout le confort nécessaire. De la literie à l'électroménager, nous avions tout ce qu'il fallait ! Nous avons passé d'excellents moments avec des amis dans la très grande piscine. Les enfants ont pu faire des parties de cricket sur le terrain environnant qui est aussi spacieux avec plein d'arbres. Nous espérons pouvoir à nouveau séjourner dans cet endroit reposant.

Fantastic Family Holiday
As a family of five, with young children, we stayed for two weeks in July '16 and had a wonderful time... so much so that we shall be returning this summer for our annual vacation. The farmhouse & location is wonderfully rustic and offers the perfect setting to spend time together. Swimming, table tennis and barbeques were particularly popular!

Wonderful !
A perfect place for a family holiday - the house is full of character, comfortable and easy to feel very much at home, yet very much in France. Well equipped and clean, we wanted for nothing and our hostess was always most accomodating and helpful with all my annoying queries beforehand. We had a lovely days just lazing around the pool & playing in the garden, but also exploring the local area - great caves and medieval towns, and plenty of activities to take part in - canoeing, walking. Spoilt for choice each day, we only scratched the surface and would definitely like to make a return visit!

Agréable maison
Nous avons apprécié notre séjour mais considérons néanmoins que la maison est chère par rapport à la prestation car un peu rustique, comme par exemple propreté à revoir, mobilier de jardin plastique, absence de grille pain, manque de haie avec l’impasse. Très grande piscine très agréable et maison plutôt au calme. Varangue (terrasse abritée) très appréciable même par fortes pluies.

Een 300 jaar oude boerderij
Ik ben gevraagd een recensie te schrijven over ons verblijf maar die is helaas niet positief in tegenstelling tot andere reviews. In onze optiek is de status van onderhoud van het huis slecht. De foto's zijn van een aantal jaren geleden en komen niet overeen met de werkelijkheid en daar schrokken wij van. Wij vonden het zwembad slecht onderhouden; het meubilair bij het zwembad is van plastic en vertoonde scheuren in het ligbed. Ook was het meubilair erg vies. De parasol die er lag past niet en zat onder de mos. Enkele planken rondom het zwembad waren gebroken en er zaten overal kieren doordat de planken omhoog zijn gekomen. Wat wij niet handig vinden is dat er maar 2 toiletten zijn en die zitten in de badkamers boven in het huis. Het zwembad ligt niet pal naast het huis dus dat vonden wij erg onhandig. Na de eerste keer douchen stroomde de douche over de gang in en bleef het water in een van de toiletten stromen. Gelukkig is er een monteur gekomen die het overstromen van de douche verholpen heeft, maar het toiletprobleem werd niet verholpen. We moesten zelf modderen aan de flotter en dan hield ie op met stromen. De keuken vonden wij vies. Overal vet en stof op de randen boven de kookplaat (die ook roest vertoond). Het stopcontact boven het aanrecht zat los, de apparatuur vies, keukenkastjes waren vies en overal spinrag. Ook zat de wasmachine onder de schimmel. Het stucwerk in de slaapkamers kwam van het plafond naar beneden en de houten planken op de vloer kieren zo erg dat ik met mijn teen ertussen bleef haken. Voor mijn man en zoon, beiden 1,95 m, waren de bedden te kort. Het huis bevat geen horren en toen het warm was konden we 's-nachts de ramen en luiken niet openen vanwege de muggen. In onze tijd was het 35 tot 40 graden en dan wordt het in huis heel warm ondanks de dikke muren. We hebben uiteindelijk een ventilator gekocht voor de slaapkamer. Ik heb regelmatig contact gehad met de eigenaresse en ook alles gemeld. Ze liet alle klachten over aan de schoonmaakster die haar uiterste best deed om problemen op te lossen. Het contact met de eigenaresse was moeizaam. Ondanks de tegenvaller hebben we met elkaar er toch een mooie vakantie van gemaakt.
