About this property

Idyllic Family Chateau with Pool and 26 Hectares of Forests and Fields

Approaching the Chateau down the long winding tree lined drive for the first time is like stepping into the past. The Chateau park itself is a magnificent 26 hectares of fields, streams and 300 yr. old trees. There are 8 bedrooms and 5 1/2 bathrooms. which can accommodate 17 guests. The Winter House, a separate dwelling, may be rented as well and can accommodate 4 guests. Each room is tastefully decorated with antiques. There is a large tapestry lined salon/drawing room with walk in fireplace, two libraries, dining room and a fully equipped eat-in kitchen and pantry. The Chateau and the Winter House have been restored to a very high standard and the rooms are both elegant and comfortable. This house is perfect for family & friend groups, entertaining, weddings and special events. There is a 17 metre long salt-water pool, designed to blend in with the surroundings. There is also a large lake, with kayaking, canoeing and fishing facilities, only one kilometre away. Guests who enjoy cooking will be thrilled with the professional LaCanche stove for cooking. Also, guests may request that bread, pastries and pizza be prepared and made in our own ancient bakery oven located on the Chateau grounds. With so much comfort guests are generally reluctant to do the many things on offer in the environs of the Chateau such as sightseeing, canoeing, waterskiing, sailing, biking, fishing, hunting, swimming, tennis etc. Given the size of the property there is a caretaker and his wife living in their cottage. Maidservice and catering can also be made available in the summer months. The Chateau is also available for Weddings, Events, Seminars, Corporate or Wellness Retreats and other special events. The Winter House, a beautifully refurbished 17th century farm house, can be separately rented, or as an ensemble with the Chateau.

Amazing!
Our stay at the Chateau exceeded all of our expectations! The house itself is simply beautiful and obviously very loved! Nine of us have stayed in somewhere so well equipped which was a treat especially for all the cooks amongst us! The children loved the pool and space ....as did all the parents! Marc could not have been more helpful either We will be back for sure! Thanks for everything

Lovely French getaway
We recently had the wonderful opportunity to stay at Chateau Beaufort in La Roche Canillac, France. We decided to stay in the main house, as we were visiting with our large family and a few friends from the US. Last summer my husband and I rented the smaller "Winter House" for a romantic getaway, so we were familiar with the area and the property, and couldn't wait to return. The grounds are incredible, and you feel so secluded, perfect for a break from the chaos of the city! The caretaker, Ernest, is a kind man who was able to help us out with any small questions we had. The interior of the Chateau is refined, but also very relaxing. There are loads of great spaces to spend time in- the kitchen table, (more than enough for our large family,) sitting room with ornate tapestries, a library, and a games room (perfect for young kids AND teenagers!), there is something for everyone. Little thoughtful extras like a high chair and plastic cutlery for babies were greatly appreciated as well. As it was winter, we were overjoyed to experience a roaring fire in the incredible fireplace in the sitting room. I honestly cannot recommend this property enough for anyone looking to get away from it all and experience the Beautiful French countryside.

Stunning chateau in wonderful position surrounded by hills and lakes
We had a brilliant2 week stay with teenage families in August. Fabulous home with exquisite furnishings and fully equipped. Ernest the caretaker was very attentive and helpful, and the owners were super responsive too. Surrounded by lakes which provided endless fun with diving boards and acres of swimming- often entirely alone! Plenty of fun at the bottom of the valley on the upper Dordogne- kayaking, standup paddleboarding, and for the adventurous , waterfall climbing with Arjen. Will definitely return! Picture perfect village of la Roche canillac- With the boulangerie in the Mairie and a well stocked epicerie- both a quick walk from the house, or even shorter bike! Pretty remote so don't expect vibrant nightlife or lots of nearby restaurants- you have to drive to find them. Lovely markets and pretty churches too. Massively recommend!

Simply perfect!
As a venue for a holiday with the whole family, the Chateau de Beaufort is hard to beat. We were 14 persons in total, and we all were comfortably lodged in very nice rooms. The house is very spacious and very cosy, we had the feeling of being in our very own maison thecampagne. Small problems were immediately taken care of by the very kind concierge couple Ernesto and Jacquie. The surroundings, the perfect quiet, the cast garden, the magnificent swimming pool, the vicinity of the baker's shop, the perfectly equipped kitchen... it all added up to our total satisfaction. We certainly recommend this place to our friends. And we are sure to come back the next time we want to spent a week together with our whole family.

About the host

Hosted by Maria & Marc

Host profile image
I am an interior designer and my husband is a retired banker. We have 3 children and now 3 grandchildren and are avid travelers.

Why they chose this property

The house sits on a hill overlooking the valley, fields and forests which surround it. I have always remarked at how the air and water is so clean you can feel it almost immediately. The locals tell me, it's too bad we can't bottle the air or we would be rich beyond our wildest dreams. We have painstakingly renovated the chateau over the years and have made it a comfortable home with all the amenities. The chateau itself originated in the 14th century and possibly earlier and is surrounded by 25 hectares of woods, fields and streams. A starry night is a sight to behold.
