Romantic & cosy hideaway bordering the forest

The perfect romantic hideaway for a couple. Lovely terrace with umbrella. Equiped with a brick BBQ. A kitchen with all you need to cook a nice meal for two people and to make a creamy cappuccino in the morning. On the first floor you will find the bathroom and the small but comfortable living room with fireplace. There is a second terrace with two sunbeds and tiny table and chairs which provides the perfect spot for your morning coffee with croissants whilst looking out over the terrain. The little dovecote is beautiful and cosy and built in beautiful yellow stones providing the authentic charm. Le Pigeonnier is one of the 5 accommodations on the property (Petite Vallée), but it enjoys incredible privacy. You can use the shared swimmingpool and enjoy the permaculture garden or go for a walk in the forest bordering the accommodation. It is an independant accommodation with plenty of privacy. From June to September there is a fixed menu served at Petite Vallée once a week (table d'hôtes) and pizza night once a week. We are always on the property if there are any issues or if you have any questions. The Dordogne is one of France’s five great rivers, as well as one of the most picturesque parts of France. Few regions sum up the attractions of France better than the Dordogne. With its rich food, impressive history, château-studded countryside and picturesque villages. The Perigord Noir with its rivers, limestone cliffs and forested hillsides is the perfect location for the active among us or for kids with energy to burn. Enjoy a multitude of outdoor activities in one of the most picturesque landscapes in the world. The beautiful landscape is dotted with fairytale like castles & caves. There is plenty of opportunity to dive into the rich history of the Périgord Noir. All summer long, visitors get the chance to nibble their way around farmer’s markets. Every town has it’s own market and you can find one on every single day of the week. The Dordogne Valley is home to an enchanting mix of picture-perfect villages that have retained their French countryside charm. The most spectacular ones are all less than a 30 minutes drive from Petite Vallée. The Dordogne is a true canoeists paradise. With hundreds of kilometres of meandering river, you’ll paddle through forested valleys, past ancient villages, and beneath chateaux perched high on limestone cliffs. There are canoe rental companies all across the Dordogne. For the full experience, rent a canoe for a full day and take the time to stop for swims and a picnic on one of the many beaches along the river. Hiking is a great way to experience the Dordogne. It gives you the chance to breath in the fragrant air, watch out for wildlife and chat to locals along the way. Whenever the trail dips down to the river, there’s an opportunity for a refreshing swim. There are several great walking trails from the property into the forest, to the guarded beach in Coux-et-Bigaroque or to the village itself. All trails are well marked, but you can also pick up maps of the walking trails from tourist offices. The Dordogne’s gentle rolling hills are criss-crossed with hundreds of kilometres of waymarked cycling routes and trails. Minor roads and gravel tracks provide plenty of opportunity for leisurely cycle touring. And, forested valleys provide mountain bikers with superb terrain to explore. If you don’t feel like bringing your own bike, there is a bike rental nearby. They also deliver (electric) bicycles to Petite Vallée
