Peace, space and charm in the heart of France: Maison Fermontes
Let yourself be enchanted by this characterful, detached house in idyllic Fermontes. In the middle of nature, with a breathtaking garden of no less than 3,500 m² with nice seating areas, two lovely large, covered terraces, a hot tub, outdoor shower, and four comfortable bedrooms – suitable for up to seven people. Here you immediately feel at home and on holiday.
The attractive kitchen with large, antique fireplace forms the heart of the house. From here you step directly onto the veranda; high up with unobstructed views over the sloping garden. Enjoy long dinners at the robust dining table, a good book on the double lounger or a glass of wine at sunset, surrounded by birdsong.
Maison Fermontes is a house with a soul. The bright entrance hall connects the main house with a beautifully restored 17th century tobacco barn, where three of the four bedrooms are located, plus a modern bathroom. The master bedroom upstairs is a gem, with authentic wooden beams and its own beautiful veranda with an extra double bed under a mosquito net. Sleeping outside with a view of the starry sky, being woken up by the morning light and chirping birds – an unforgettable experience.
The fourth bedroom is located in a separate studio with its own entrance, a kitchen corner and a bathroom. Ideal for those seeking privacy – or for an older couple, teenager or befriended couple.
Comfort & atmosphere
Maison Fermontes is fully equipped. Think of nice sun loungers, cozy sitting areas, a table tennis table, wood-fired hot tub, outdoor shower, Weber barbeque, smoker, hammock, games, Wifi, TV, and two Nespresso machines. The attractive, well-equipped kitchen invites you to cook with local products. Inside, the house stays pleasantly cool, even on hot days. Outside it is pure enjoyment. Here you can hear the silence. The rippling road next to the house leads you straight into the forest. Hiking maps are already waiting for you.
Nature and surroundings: vibrant and enchanting
At Maison Fermontes you will find the perfect balance between peace and bustle. The Dordogne region is rich in history and nature. A quarter of an hour's drive away is the Dordogne river itself – the place for swimming, sunbathing, canoeing and picnicking on scenic, shady beaches, from busy to wonderfully secluded. Or visit the Lac du Causse, a truly beautifully situated lake with a large and fine sandy beach, clear water and plenty of water sports opportunities.
Culture and connoisseurs will also get their money's worth. The region is bursting with castles, caves and atmospheric medieval towns. Think of Rocamadour, an impressive pilgrimage site against a cliff, or the magical Gouffre de Padirac: an underground river in a gigantic sinkhole. Other must-sees include Turenne, Collonges-la-Rouge, Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne – all declared 'Les Plus Beaux Villages de France'.
Stroll through flea markets and vide-greniers, toast to village festivals, taste local cheeses, truffles and wines in cozy bistros and enjoy the authentic French life. For a day of shopping or culture, Brive-la-Gaillarde – a lively medium-sized city – is the perfect base.
Maison Fermontes: everything comes together here.
Silence and conviviality, nature and culture, comfort and adventure. Whether you want to relax in the garden, sleep under the stars, hike through the hills or discover the most beautiful villages in France – you can experience it all at Maison Fermontes.
Let time stand still for a moment. You are very welcome.
