MULBERRY TREE Villa - Luxury Villa - Heated Pool, Hot tub, Gym, Garden, Calm

Beautiful stone villa centrally located in the most desirable part of the Dordogne - the Perigord Noir. Located in a hamlet on a no-through-road (no passing traffic) the location is very peaceful and enjoys beautiful views across the village and the surrounding countryside. The villa is just minutes from fairytale settings of Chateau de Commarque and Les Jardins de Marqueyssac, historical sites of Font de Gaume, Lascaux Caves, Chateau Castlenaud and medieval villages of Beynac, Les Eyzies and Sarlat-la-Caneda.

Inside, the house is full of character and French charm with oak beams and stone fireplaces. There are 2 large comfortable living rooms with a TV each: one with English channels and another with local French channels and both feature DVD players. The kitchen is well designed and modern with its beautiful custom made oak cabinets and oak floors, granite kitchen counters and lots of space. The kitchen is well supplied with gadgets and is a chef's delight. Ask us about Dimitri, your very own private French chef that comes to cook for you at the villa.

The villa has 5 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms. Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The master bedroom has a king size bed (180*200) with an en-suite bathroom with a rain shower and a bath. Bedroom 2 has a double bed (160*200) with an en-suite bathroom. The 3rd bedroom is has also a double bed (160*200). The 4th bedroom has a king size bed (180*200) that can be converted into 2 singles should you prefer. The 3rd and 4th bedrooms share a bathroom with a rain shower.

Downstairs there is a 5th bedroom that is very private in its own separate wing of the house. Its double bed (160*200) has an orthopaedic mattress. The suite has its own living and dining area and its own separate full bathroom with a rain shower. This part of the Villa is wheelchair accessible, as is the majority of the ground floor and the outside area. Each bathroom is supplied with hand towels and foot towels, organic hand wash and shampoo/shower gel.

There is a spacious dining terrace with a large 3 burner Weber gas grill for your outside entertaining (gas bottles are provided) and a large dining table with 12 comfortable chairs under a large umbrella. There is also an outside lounge terrace to the back of the house, where the views of the countryside are at their best. You can also relax in the different swing chairs that we have placed around the lovely gardens surrounded by mature trees, plants, and beautiful flowers.

Situated within the grounds you will find a 20x43ft (6x13m) heated, chlorine-free, salt-water swimming pool. It's one of the largest pools in the Sarlat Dordogne area and we keep the temperature at 27C minimum through the season. There is plenty of terrace space around the pool for lounge chairs and umbrellas. The swimming pool is open from April to October. You will also enjoy an 8 person Jacuzzi hot tub, overlooking the lush green pastures of the Dordogne countryside.

Mulberry Tree Villa is your sanctuary for relaxation but it is also located in the heart of the famous Golden Triangle of the Perigord Noir so we are just 6kms from Les Eyzies, 6kms from the lovely village of St. Cyprien (and all required services) and 20 mins to the historic town of Sarlat-la-Caneda. Our local centre at Meyrals is just 3km away and provides a bakery, a bar and 2 restaurants.

This is a wonderful, charming and very special property that is full of character and beautifully furnished. Staying at The Mulberry Tree Villa you will have the feel of the 17th century but all the upgrades and comfort of home. Whether you are celebrating a special occasion, friends on vacation, or a family wanting some quality time together there is something for everyone to enjoy at The Mulberry Tree Villa.

Best Location and Home to Explore the Dordogne From
We LOVED our stay here! Our group was made up of five girlfriends and we could not have chosen a better home away from home. We all had our own unique and wonderful bedroom, there are plenty of washrooms to accommodate everyone and the dining area, living room and outdoor areas were ideal for 5 women to relax when not sightseeing. We used the hot tub daily (with the wonderful view of the cows in the beautiful pasture) - we enjoyed the pool a few times as well. We booked Chef Dimitri once during our stay and he prepared an amazing dinner for us. The owners are lovely and were very helpful before our arrival and during our stay. Honestly we can’t imagine staying anywhere else it was magical.

A family stay in the paradise of the Dordogne countryside
We had the great pleasure of spending a week of a family reunion at Mulberry Tree villa set in the gorgeous countryside of the Dordogne. Ages ranged from 77 down to 11 with 5 adults and four children from 3 families. The villa provided private areas for all of us in addition to great gathering spaces in the living and dining area inside the house and wonderful outdoor sitting areas. The space and views outside were phenomenal and the pool and hot tub were wonderful highlight for the children. The location of the villa could not be more perfect with castles, caves, beautiful walks, weekly markets and daily shopping areas within a short, lovely drive, Andy was a fantastic host giving us complete privacy but present immediately when we had questions. Our time could not have been better!!!

Lovely house, extremely well equipped and clean. Fantastic pool and hot tub. Andy and Uliana were very helpful but not intrusive. We ate at two restaurants in Meyrals which were very good, also Sunday lunch at Aberge Medieval in Audrix, about a 15 minute drive away, was outstanding. Highlight of the week for food was Dimitri cooking for us, it was delicious, plentiful and no more expensive than eating out. We can highly recommend Les Hirondelles!

Warm,Welcoming and Wonderful !
Uliana quickly responded to my many emails over 18 months , before and after we booked ,so we were well prepared to arrive at Mulberry Tree Villa. On arrival , we found the Villa to to be , and have , everything we’d hoped for and needed.Andy (and charming 6 year old Michael) came over every day to answer questions and provide help and advice where necessary. We used the warm pool occasionally and the big hot tub often. Daily excursions took us to to a considerable number of les plus beau villages en France, of which many can can be found nearby in Perigord Noir ( and were). We really can’t imagine a better place to stay, or warmer people to own it. Sincere and lasting thanks for a wonderful travel experience to Uliana and Andy …. And Michael!

A Glorious Celebration
If you want to have a holiday in gorgeous, serene, surroundings with the most thoughtful hosts you can imagine, this is the property for you. Mulberry Villa and it’s adjacent Butterfly Cottage are set in the soft, rolling hills and fields of the Dordogne. The grounds themselves are manicured and perfumed with honeysuckle and roses. The pool sparkles and the hot tub welcomes any with sore muscles from too much climbing while exploring nearby castles. The kitchen is well equipped and we were able to produce great meals for ten people. Speaking of great meals, if a celebratory meal is on your agenda, consider bookingChef Dimitri . He created two fabulous and totally different meals for us. Over a two week period, we hosted 14 people ranging in age from 20 months to mid 70s. All were enchanted, a toddler who could run and play, twenty something’s who could swim and cavort, young parents who could have their own space in the Butterfly Cottage. The thing that really makes Les Hirondelles, with its cottage and villa incomparable though is the family who own it. Andy, Uliana and their son, Michael. Andy and Uliana went out of their way to offer assistance, answer questions and check how we were doing. The only problem with Les Hirondelles is that it is so far from our home in Austin.

Lovely country house near Les Eyzies
Mulberry Tree Villa is a large, comfortable and well-furnished house on a very pretty property of gardens surrounded by views of open fields. We loved when cows appeared in the neighboring field. My husband and I and our two sons and their wives had plenty of space for privacy and spots for gathering together. Each couple had their own bedroom and bath, and we all had the large and comfortable lounge on the ground floor of the house, as well as two patios outside with comfortable furniture and a large table to eat meals or sit with drinks at the end of the day. We all enjoyed the pool and the hot tub, especially the two young couples. The owners were nearby for help and advice, but never intrusive. They are very friendly and generous. We were near all the prehistoric sights in the Vezere Valley, but also not far from towns and sights along the Dordogne River. Also available are the excellent culinary skills of Chef Dimitri. We were so glad we treated ourselves to a dinner prepared by him. An absolutely delicious and superb meal paired with wines. He's a lovely man and we enjoyed talking with him about the food. We also loved going to the Sunday market in St. Cyprien, and taking our purchases back to the house to cook in a good kitchen. Thank you Andy and Uliana for a wonderful week at Mulberry Tree Villa! We were so lucky to find your lovely, peaceful place. Our best to you. Susan and Jon

Spectacular
Last month we made our 2nd visit to Les Hirondelles. After our first visit in 2016, we knew we wanted to return. And we were even more pleased this time. Our new hosts were Uliana, Andy and their adorable son, Michael. Again the villa was spacious, very well-appointed with full kitchen, large bedrooms, very nice bathrooms, and most comfortable. Of course the pool and hot tub were excellent. If you are looking for a pastoral setting, quiet country setting, and excellent location, THIS is your choice. Uliana and Andy were very responsive and always offered excellent suggestions for our outings. The country roads are perfect for quiet walking, and the delicious Meyral bakery is only 2 Kms away. The 'girls' (hens) provided fresh eggs every day. We ate excellent meals in Les Eyzies, Lu Bugue, and Sarlat - all locations within 5-15 Kms. We highly recommend this villa - and yes we do plan to return again.

Awesome Dordogne holiday stay
Our 11th year staying at Les Hirondelles!! This is a fabulous oasis of calm and tranquility with superb and luxurious facilities. Andy and Uliana have taken over ownership and have maintained and surpassed the previous exceptionally high standards. WiFi is now available throughout the property (even down by the pool, which is kept spotlessly clean and heated to a sublime temperature). The hot tub is similarly spotless and heated and now has water spouts that just add to your complete sense of rest and relaxation whilst gazing out over the lush Dordogne countryside. We enjoyed another superb meal from Dimitri, the resident chef and we were able to pick delicious fresh figs from the tree in the courtyard. We can not recommend Les Hirondelles highly enough.

Ideal location
This was our third visit to this beautiful property which is in an ideal location for taking advantage of all the Dordogne has to offer. Uliana and Andy are friendly and considerate hosts who strive to accommodate the needs of their guests. The pool was definitely a welcome break from the intense heatwave this summer and the views across the countryside very relaxing. Of course, our stay at Les Hirondelles would not be complete without having private Chef Dimitri preparing and serving us a wonderful 4 course meal with paired wines on the patio. Always memorable.

A delightful stay in the Dordogne in a spacious, well equipped villa with glorious gardens and views
We have returned to this lovely place for the last 9 years . It feels like returning to a second home and being welcomed by family . Our hosts Linda and George could not have done more for us . We were blessed with beautiful warm sunny weather and were able to relax in the beautiful gardens , keep fit in the heated pool and enjoy leisurely meals al fresco . We loved the downstairs bedroom we occupied and lovely shower room downstairs . Superb kitchen facilities enabled us to prepare delicious family meals as well as enjoy a cordon bleu meal prepared by Dimitri, our visiting chef .Highlights included visits to St Leon de Vezere,the beautifully decorated St Cyprien and a visit to the markets at Domme and St Cyprien . The Villa is always spotlessly clean and the gardens beautifully maintained and plenty of room for guests to spread out . It is one of those places where you arrive , give a sigh of relief and soak up the surroundings . We also appreciated the generous provision from our hosts,wine, plentiful fresh eggs , figs and delicious speciality teas and coffee . This is the most beautiful, well equipped and comfortable holiday property I have ever stayed in . I hope to return again before too long

The jewel in the crown of the gite holiday experience
Mulberry Tree Villa was exactly what it said it would be and more. It is difficult to be concise so I have highlighted the things that I think will help if you are looking to book this holiday. The facilities were top notch with a heated swimming pool, hot tub, gym and sauna. In addition, guests are provided with really useful touches for example there when we arrived there was milk, coffee and tea for us to use as well as ice in the freezer. The kitchen is fully equipped with high end appliances and all manner of gadgets to use. There are cool boxes and freezer packs provided for those who like to picnic. There were hairdryers, shower gel, shampoo in every bathroom along with those all important towels (and toilet rolls to start you off!) to name but a couple of things. Pool towels and robes were also provided. In addition there was also a washer and dryer available for use and numerous clothes horses. These things may not sound like the most glamorous of things to mention but they are invaluable when you are away on a self-catering holiday. The bedrooms were all of a nice size with plenty of storage and the beds comfortable and cozy with extra blankets available and fans should the heat be too much. The living accommodation is spacious with room to all be together yet space for some "alone" time if wanted. There were also DVD's, books and games for guests to use. The hosts, Linda and George, were lovely people and nothing was too much trouble. Prior to travel Linda emails and provides full directions which were spot on and easy to follow. Linda has put together a nice little package of maps and leaflets detailing things to do locally including which day/where the markets were so you could either attend or avoid! In addition should you wish, Linda will make reservations in local restaurants, book canoeing and all sorts. Most things are within a 30 minute drive from the address. There was also the option for a chef to come in and cook for us all which we took advantage of - what a meal! All in all, the price of this holiday reflects the quality of the accommodation, home comforts provided and assistance of the hosts. I highly recommend Les Hirondelles as THE place to stay if you are looking to travel to the Dordogne. We will definitely return. Thanks again for helping to make our holiday as enjoyable as it was.

Best Vacation.
The Mulberry Tree Villa is everything as described and more... The villa is located in an idyllic setting in the heart of the Dordogne with easy access to the prehistoric caves, chateaus and castles, beautiful historical villages, the vineyards of Cahors and Bergerac as well as the many other attractions of the Perigord region. Outstanding cuisine, beautiful hiking trails and a multitude of farmers' markets and outstanding natural attractions make for an unforgettable holiday. The villa has a serene environment and includes access to an outdoor jacuzzi as well as a very large heated swimming pool. The owners are wonderful hosts - always available to offer helpful suggestions about places to visit , where to park and a multitude of other helpful hints that smooth out the wrinkles of sightseeing. We had a very active program of activities during our stay and always looked forward to our return to the villa at the end of each day's activities to unwind and refresh ourselves for the following day. The villa is beautiful, inspiring, full of character, spacious, a large garden with trees of all sorts, plants, and flowers. It conveys a romantic feeling of a farm house. At the same time it is very well equipped and furnished, with first class quality accommodations and elegant taste. Words and pictures really don’t do justice to the Mulberry Tree Villa, just go there, relax and enjoy - it will be the best vacation choice you ever made.

Wonderful and Relaxing.
Our families spent the most wonderful and relaxing week in the Mulberry Tree Villa. Not sure where to begin describing how much we thoroughly enjoyed staying here, from the beautifully cared for gardens, the heated pool and Jacuzzi to relax in after an amazing day of cycling through the beautiful countryside. The spacious, comfortable and tastefully decorated villa where we enjoyed memorable evening meals, and that special evening meal prepared by Chef Dimitri (do not miss this opportunity to enjoy French cooking at its best). The children enjoyed feeding the chickens every day and we all enjoyed their fresh laid eggs. As I stated in the beginning, it was the most wonderful and relaxing week for all of us, we truly recommend staying here for anybody that is looking for all the comforts of home. You will not want to leave, I know we didn’t!!

Superb!
To stay at Mulberry Tree Villa was a pleasure from start to finish. Linda and George are perfect hosts, making you feel welcome and special. The villa is exceptional both in cleanliness and comfort. It is a treat to stay in such an old building. The chickens are an added bonus, feeding them daily was enjoyed by all. I have to mention the swimming pool and the hot tub both 10 out of 10 for relaxing whilst surrounded by beautiful countryside. We did use the services of the very professional and kind chef, Dimitri, as recommended by Linda and previous reviews. We are all strict Vegetarians and the menu he served was so thoughtful and extremely tasty. It is a very special treat that I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and again. We usually spend our holidays touring the area and really don’t spend much time at the rental. However, this holiday we couldn’t get enough of the place and spent our days mostly relaxing at ‘home’. Thank you and see you again soon!
