Le Mas

A 16th-century Dordogne farmhouse where stone walls, orchard views and a converted tobacco barn create the unhurried rhythm of an authentic French summer.

Hidden at the end of a private country lane, Le Mas is a beautifully restored 16th-century farmhouse offering an exceptional combination of historic character, generous space and understated luxury. Designed for families and groups of friends seeking authenticity without compromising comfort, this five-bedroom property embodies the quiet refinement that defines the Dordogne Collection portfolio.

Surrounded by rolling countryside, orchards and fragrant gardens, the estate invites guests to slow down and experience the Dordogne lifestyle at its most genuine: long outdoor lunches, warm summer evenings by the pool and peaceful mornings with views across the valley.

Inside, the house retains its original soul with thick stone walls, exposed beams and historic fireplaces, carefully balanced with contemporary comfort and thoughtful interior design. A large family kitchen forms the heart of the home, while the spacious living room with wood burner provides a welcoming place to gather in every season.

Each of the five bedrooms benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, offering both privacy and hotel-level comfort for every guest. Upstairs bedrooms feature air-conditioning, while the ground floor layout allows easy accessibility.

Outdoor living is where Le Mas truly excels. The heated saltwater swimming pool enjoys sweeping countryside views and is complemented by a remarkable covered summer kitchen - a beautifully converted former tobacco barn - where guests naturally gather for relaxed dinners, barbecues and late-evening conversations under atmospheric lighting.

The grounds reflect the property’s agricultural heritage, with fruit trees, lavender, jasmine and roses creating a setting that feels both curated and natural. Multiple outdoor relaxation areas, a pétanque court and games spaces make the estate particularly well suited for multi-generational stays.

Le Mas enjoys an excellent location for exploring the region. The celebrated bastide villages of Monpazier and Beaumont, with their markets and restaurants, are just minutes away, while Bergerac airport can be reached in approximately 35 minutes.

Recognised as a five-star property by the French Ministry of Tourism and featured in international travel publications, Le Mas stands out as a rare example of a Dordogne property combining heritage, comfort and a true sense of place.

Ideal for: Families, multi-generation holidays, groups of friends, slow-travel enthusiasts, and guests looking for a character property with boutique comfort rather than resort-style luxury.

Editor's note

Some homes impress with luxury. Others with history. Le Mas is rare because it offers both, without ever feeling staged or overdone.

What makes this property stand out is its authenticity. This is not a renovated house trying to look old — it is a genuine Dordogne farmhouse that has been carefully elevated to modern comfort standards while preserving its original soul. The balance between heritage and refinement is exactly what we look for when selecting homes for Dordogne Collection.

We particularly appreciate the outdoor lifestyle this property naturally creates. The covered summer kitchen in the former tobacco barn is the kind of place where days effortlessly turn into evenings: children playing nearby, a glass of Bergerac wine on the table, and long dinners that stretch into the night.

The layout also makes Le Mas exceptionally suitable for groups who value both togetherness and privacy. Five en-suite bedrooms is a rare comfort feature in historic homes and makes it ideal for families travelling together or groups of friends who appreciate boutique-hotel levels of comfort within a private home.

Le Mas is best suited for guests who appreciate character over ostentation, quality over trends, and the quiet luxury of space, views and authenticity.
