**Please note it is possible to rent just one cottage at reduced rates. Please contact us for more information ***

A guest commented " ...it feels like a holiday" the first time they entered the property...
Just outside Hautefort in the Dordogne's Perigord Noir, sits 2 1/2 acres of charming secluded grounds. Surrounded by green rolling pasture and lovely trees, you find Le Petit Verger (The Little Orchard). A large private swimming pool (security fenced) lies in a sunny position just steps from both the original stone farmhouse, and the wooden chalet-style cottage. Note it is possible to rent just one cottage to accommodate 4. Please enquire.
The farmhouse is a spacious traditional stone converted barn which has been tastefully restored and furnished retaining charm and character. The wood cottage offers a more modern take on rustic charm "a la campagne". Both houses sit comfortably within the grounds, and have lovely views with covered terraces dressed with potted flowers and climbing vines. Both have access to ample and comfortable garden furniture for dining plus access to BBQs. The layout of the property makes it ideal for two families or groups of friends traveling together to share a holiday, but retain the space, privacy and convenience of separate comfortable facilities should you wish to use just a portion of the property.

Both the farmhouse and wood cottage have 2 bedrooms with comfortable and stylish bed & bath linens, and complete kitchens including dishwashers. The farmhouse offers a full bathroom with shower over bath tub. The cottage offers a generously sized full bathroom with walk-in shower.

Both houses have lovely rural views and enjoy secluded peace and quiet in an idyllic rural setting- yet just minutes away from all the restaurants and amenities of Hautefort/St. Agnan and the many activities of the area.

Please enquire if you would like to rent just one of the two houses as it is possible. See the rates for details. We offer a discount should you choose to rent out the entire property. If you are traveling with a larger group- it is possible to provide an extra children's bed to add sleeping for 1 additional child, making the entire property suitable for 9.

Perfect in Every Way
We have just spent three weeks at Le Petit Verger and it could not have been a more perfect trip. An amazing, personalized, welcome package, and all the great communication and hospitality from the hosts were so appreciated and generous. We had days of sitting and reading on the porch, followed by sitting at/in the pool, followed by eating in the moon and twinkle lights, and all was sublime. We ventured out into the Dordogne for many a great adventure. Three different cave visits. Wow. A couple of times to the lovely town of Montignac. Markets at Sarlat and Saint-Genies. Two visits to the chateau in Hautefort :) amazing pastries from the Boulangeries every morning. Lots of duck as well. The neighboring cows coming by for their afternoon snack was fun to see. ... There's so much more we want to do in this area and this perfect getaway house is the best place to be based. The privacy, decor, quiet nature, and everything you'd need in a home was there. Again, everything we were hoping for in a get-away home, and more! We can't wait to go back! Thank you Bevans'!

Everything we wanted and more.
We could not have been happier with the property itself as well as the local villages and surrounding areas. Holidaying for the first time as 2 families of 4 (from the same extended family), the set up was fantastic allowing some space when required, but also a real sense of togetherness. Family meals on the veranda, with a view of the pool and watching the cows graze, made home and work seem like a distant memory. With 4 children ranging from 5 to 14, many an hour was spent in the swimming pool which is an excellent size, and admittedly the grown-ups enjoyed it equally. The property is on a large plot, surrounded by trees which offers privacy, natural beauty and tranquility, making for the perfect ingredients for a relaxing holiday. In addition to a magnificent chateau, nearby Hautefort (less that 5 mins drive through beautiful country lanes), is picturesque and offers all things required on such a break, from a good supermarket and butchers, an exceptional boulangerie (very pretty and magnificent food), and several very good cafes and restaurants. All of the locals were extremely warm and welcoming, and several of the restaurants serve exceptionally good food and wine. The owners have ensured that the property is equipped with everything you could need, along with a very useful folder of things to do and places to visit from very local to 90 mins drive away. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and as well as wanting to return, would highly recommend it to others.

Wonderfully Charming & Amazing Property!! Highly Recommend Le Petit Verger!!
We had an incredible stay at Le Petit Verger!! Truly an amazing property with incredible charm and comfort. The pictures do not show the incredible beauty surrounding the two adorable well appointed Cottages. This is a very private and relaxing place to kick back and enjoy all it has to offer. The Cottages are completely remodeled and offer up everything you need for a comfortable stay. We stayed in the Stone Cottage which has an lovely outside area for dining and when we arrived there was a welcome basket, with all sorts of goodies. Very nice touch!! Well equipped kitchens and bath too! The swimming pool is a very nice size with lots of room. We had a great time just swimming and laying around the pool on hot days. It was also a real treat sitting by the pool at nighttime looking at all the amazing shooting stars and constellations . The entire sky was filled with stars and so clear you could see Mars and Saturn. This is a must do in summer!! The beauty of the Le Petit Verger is not completely captured in the photos. We were completely amazing by how stunning everything was. It surpassed our expectations!! This is also a great location to explore the regions of the Dordogne. The town of Hautefort is completely charming and has a great Patisserie and lots of places to dine. We did the night tour of the Hautefort Chateau which is really fun!! Other activities in the area we recommend are canoing down the scenic Dordogne River. We also went to the Caves at Rouffignac which was only a 40min drive. We really had an amazing stay and would highly recommend Le Petit Verger to friends and family!! This is truly a special place!!

DE BONNES VACANCES REPOSANTES
Propriété composée de deux maisons covenant parfaitement pour huit personnes. Magnifique parc avec arbres fruitiers ( nous avons pu y déguster de délicieuses mirabelles et des mûres ) et belle piscine. Petite tonnelle pour se protéger du soleil au bord de la piscine et terrasse à l 'ombre pour chaque maison. Bonne literie. Décoration agréable.Tout a été pensé pour de bonnes vacances. Petit congélateur dans la maison principale ce qui nous a permis de congeler le pain du matin, étant assez éloigné de la boulangerie de hautefort. Propriété bien entretenue avec du personnel venant régulièrement pour entretien piscine et arrosage des fleurs. Maisons propres mais impossible d'empêcher quelques petites araignées du jardin de venir parfois nous rendre visite. La petite maison est très chaude dans la journée, fraîche la nuit, mais présence de nombreux ventilateurs ce qui est bien agréable.
