PICTURE-BOOK FAMILY CHÂTEAU WITH LOVELY GARDENS
If you have ever dreamed of staying in a picture-book château complete with ivy-clad tower and garden of roses, look no further. The charming Château de Queynac oozes old-world, fairy-tale charm, yet also boasts modern luxuries such as a gorgeous pool and blissfully comfortable beds. Nestled into the curve of a wooded hillside on its 19-acre estate, the château blends the best of old and new, providing a secluded and comfortable retreat from which to explore this historic and many-faceted area of southwest France. The sumptuous interior has been designed for comfort and pleasure, with multiple fireplaces, a large kitchen, plush bedrooms and a shady terrace. The opulent gardens, overflowing with roses and fragrant plants, frame a generously-sized pool. A little way up the hill you'll find the hard tennis court, from which you'll discover a panoramic view over the lush farmlands and orchards of the valley below. Restaurants, shops and services are just minutes away in the scenic riverside town of Le Bugue, where the market has been held every Tuesday since 1319. Only a little further afield are the famed prehistoric sites around les Eyzies (Lascaux, Font de Gaumes) and the superb châteaux along the Dordogne river. All in all, Queynac is the perfect place to enjoy the charms of provincial France, both past and present. |
