Le Roudier first opened its doors to guests in 1996. The current owners, Paul and Dearbhla took over in 2003 and have welcomed many holiday makers from around the globe since then.
They have worked on adding to and improving Le Roudier with sympathic renovation over the years. They have enjoyed making it their home and bringing up their young family in this beautiful and tranquil corner of the Dordogne.
The 300 year old buildings of Le Roudier stand in over 30 acres of glorious Perigordian countryside with fantastic panoramic views across the adjoining valley.
It is surrounded by wonderful rolling countryside and yet only a few kilometres from the bastide town of Eymet. Bergerac town is a mere 20 minutes away and the airport provides excellent connections to the UK and Europe. Le Roudier provides an oasis of peace and tranquility for a relaxing holiday, plus a good base for sightseeing and other more active pursuits.
This fantastic 4 bedroom renovation lies at western end of the 300 year old farmstead of Le Roudier. With 3 ensuite bathrooms and an extremely high specification of living accommodation, this luxury property benefits from superb panoramic views of the adjoining valley. The entrance hall and galleried dining room typify the level of dedication that has been put into the design of this stone building. With its own private terraces, mature gardens and pool it provides the ideal opportunity to taste the delights of Perigordian living with real style. Situated in over 30 acres of Dordogne woodlands and pastures it really is a corner of paradise. For wildlife enthusiasts it is a real dream from boar and deer to a hugely diverse bird population.
On the inside, the large open plan downstairs allows great freedom for dining and family activities with direct access to the rear south facing terrace where you can relax next to the private heated pool and jacuzzi. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and can provide the ideal centre piece for any function. The neighbouring gîtes that form the rest of the farmstead are situated away from the house. There are additional shared on-site facilities which include a tennis court and football pitch. Within the grounds there are areas for football, badminton, petanque, children's play areas, etc
