The garden is accessed from the studio and from the barn. At the corner of the building is the large fixed grill adjoined to the terrace where seating is available. Central to the garden is the 5x10 swimming pool surrounded by a large walled in terrace and just a few steps away from the house. For the sporting inclined there is a multigym available. In addition to the full sized billiard table there is table tennis and boules supplied.

Large country property ideal for multi generational fun and family reunions
Nestled in picturesque Perigourdine countryside, Le Pré comprises three nearly independent cottages enclosing a secure, sun kissed courtyard, with a large field behind the accommodation, off road parking for several cars, and an enclosed and private swimming pool. Double height living room with full size billiards table, table tennis outside and table football complete the facilities. Tim and Claudia are attentive and good communicators. Strongly recommended.

Quiet village location, ideally placed for west Perigord
Plenty of space for family of 10. Well equipped, lovely pool area, lots of places to either mix together or have your own space. Off road parking for 3/4 cars inside gates. Loved the atmosphere of this property. Centrally based between Bergerac & Perigueux. Only 10/15 mins drive to hypermarket/bakery. Great choice of restaurants locally too. Recommend l'Petite Auberge near Vergt for authentic french lunch and Le Rossignol, both within 10 mins drive.

An absolute gem!
Delightful hosts, super quick to respond to our questions. Nothing was too much trouble for them! A lovingly restored house which gave our party of 12 enough space to spread out while still being together as a family, which was vital to us. The house easily accommodated us all with room to spare and, even more, had a large oven with very large cooking pots , plenty of fridge and freezer space. The large grounds allowed the more energetic of us to explore and the swimming pool was wonderful with plenty of loungers. Tim kept the pool super clean and it was great to bump into him at times to pick his brains on the surrounding area. We would highly recommend this beautiful home, situated in a very quiet rural area but close enough to places of interest and the all important boulangerie for those breakfast croissants!

About the host

Hosted by Dr and Mrs T M Pillar

Host profile image
My wife and I are retired school teachers, having worked in the UK and Germany and are now settled in this beautiful area of France. We enjoy every minute improving the house and landscaping the grounds, cooking delicious French recipes and discovering new wines. We are happy to see our guests enjoying themselves by the pool, barbecueing and having fun. Children are much loved visitors and are safe at 'Le Pré'!


Why they chose this property

St Paul de Serre is located in the beautiful Dordogne with access to some of the most beautiful countryside in France. Just south of Perigueux and north of Bergerac it affords access to culture, history, restaurants and most of what the heart may desire.
My wife and I were charmed by the farm complex, which was built by a family fleeing the North of France at the time of the French Revolution. They settled in the vicinity of the old convent, which you can still see opposite the Church of St Paul. The oldest part of the property, the 'Old House', originates from those cruel years, the barn was built in 1832 and contains a Maltese Cross, as a pisé flooring.

What makes this property unique

Peace and relaxation, long walks while still in the grounds of 'Le Pre', privacy in this large property, safe and plentiful parking. Lots of interesting markets in Perigueux, Vergt, St Astier, Villamblard or Bergerac, all at a few minutes drive.
