DORDOGNE: DELIGHTFUL MAISON DE VILLAGE IN CLASSIC BASTIDE OF MONPAZIER, "LA BASTIDE"
Situation
"La Bastide" is a traditional stone house located in the heart of the 13th Century village of Monpazier and only a few hundred metres from the central market place. The minute you enter the town by any of its 6 arched gateways you feel there is something special and exciting in the air; a confident charm about the shops and the people that is not lost on any visitor to this ancient bastide.
The House itself
Standing on the corner of a quiet street and a charming "ruelle" (small lane), the house is built from a mixture of ash and honey coloured stone. Solid and imposing, with walls over 2 feet thick, it's façade boasts a beautiful double entrance door
surmounted by a crest, another larger quadruple French door and, higher up, a graceful window looking out onto the street.
There are two storeys, with living areas on the ground level, and with bedrooms and the bathroom upstairs.
You will feel immediately at home as the atmosphere is light and cheerful.
GROUND FLOOR
* Terra cotta tiling floors with rugs, rendered white stone walls and exposed oak beam ceilings.
* Large open space comprising the living room, dining area and kitchen at the rear.
* The living room has a lounge, sofas, coffee table, and large open fireplace, colour TV and stereo, telephone and bookshelves with some books in English.
* The dining room has a long table that seats 8 people. You can open the French doors give a feeling of
"en plein air" dining.
* The kitchen has a stove, dishwasher, fridge, cupboards with all utensils and cutlery, etc.
FIRST FLOOR
* Polished oak floors with rugs, fabric wallpaper and exposed oak beam ceilings.
* Two bedrooms - one with a double bed and the other with four single beds or one double and two singles.
* Tiled bathroom with washbasin, WC and enclosed shower recess,washing machine/dryer.
Shopping in the town
Monpazier is a "living" village and consequently has a complete range of shops:alimentation
(fruit, vegetables and groceries), butchers, charcuteries (delicatessens), fromageries (cheese), patisseries (pastries), boulangeries (bread), tabacs, newsagents, bookshops, cafés, bars, restaurants, pharmacies, ice-creameries, antiques shops, electrical goods shops and much more are all within two minute's walk from your door.
Sports and Leisure Activities
Swimming, cycling, canoeing, fishing, horse riding, walking and visiting local wineries and restaurants are just a few of the leisure activities available.
We also have an arrangement with the English owner
of the nearby Restaurant des Sources de la Brame - an old converted mill on the Dropt River, whereby our guests may use their (rather sumptuous) swimming pool by paying a small surcharge ($2) on the first drink purchased at the restaurant bar.
FACILITIES IN THE HOUSES
Each house has all the things you would expect in your own home. The fully equipped kitchen has a fridge, dishwasher, and stove. There are basic cooking supplies such as condiments and other non-perishables in the cupboards: you are welcome to use these but we request that you replace them when they are running out. The laundry has a washing machine and drying cabinet.
The telephone can be used for receiving all calls and for making local calls. If you need to make International calls you should take your Telecard with you.
For entertainment there are some books in English, a radio-cassette, a television with satellite connection and some tapes and CDS supplied.
It is nice to stay in and relax with these pastimes sometimes after a busy day of being "out and about".
New things to see and do nearby
Guests at our houses have a better opportunity to seek out those places and events in the vicinity that are not part of the usual tourist trek. Spending more time in one place allows you to make some genuine discoveries and there are two helpful resources you can take advantage of: our visitor's book and the local "Office de Tourisme". At the Tourist office, where many staff speak English, you will find an abundance of maps and leaflets on local points of interest, cultural events and traditional fêtes and festivals. The Visitor's book in each house contains many recommendations by previous guests - please read them and feel free to add your own ideas.
COSTS AND HOW TO BOOK
Each cottage is available for bookings on a weekly basis, from Friday afternoon till the following Friday morning. These arrival times allow our guests to enjoy the experience of the Saturday morning markets and to obtain the week's supplies.
The all-inclusive cost per week is $950.
