La Rousselie is the oldest (16th Century) in a hamlet of 4 houses.

Situated halfway up a hill, in its own grounds of around half an acre. It is not overlooked by the other houses and there are splendid views along the valley and overlooking the fields and woods opposite.

The house is situated in the "Perigord Vert" region of the Dordogne, which is characterized by fields of sunflowers and maize, woods, rivers, ancient villages and markets and Romanesque architecture.

It is off the beaten track but within easy reach of the busier tourist areas such as the prehistoric caves at Les Eyzies and Bergerac.

It is about 2 kms north of Verteillac, which is situated on the D708 road from Angouleme to Riberac.

Swimming is not very far away on the river Dronne at Aubeterre, Lisle, Riberac and at a large lake in a pine forest at La Jamaye, about 15kms away.

At Verteillac there is a post office, bank, doctor's surgery, chemist, restaurant, bars , bakers, grocers, market, butcher, garage, tennis courts, riding facilities and an open-air swimming pool.

 

 

The accommodation is on the first floor. The ground floor consists of various storage rooms and stables, which we are starting to modernize. The balcony, which is reached by the stairs on the outside of the house, is one of its main features. It is wide enough to have meals under its shade.

Apart from the balcony, (on which you will probably spend most of your time in summer) there is a smallish kitchen and bathroom, a large living room, one very large bedroom (with one double and 3 single beds) through which you walk to reach a medium sized double bedroom.

We are in the process of creating two more bedrooms downstairs and there is currently a single bed in one of these ( the old oven room) which can be pressed into service if necessary.

The house is comfortably furnished with a range of period furniture, unlimited hot water, electricity, washing machine, shower with the bath, plenty of cutlery, crockery and books and above all the tranquility of the Dordogne countryside.

The are also plenty of blankets and pillows - but you will need to bring your own sheets, towels and pillow cases.
