About this property
Stunning farmhouse in 15 acres, private heated pool, 6 beds & 4 baths plus annex
Stone built farmhouse situated between St. Emilion, Bergerac and Duras. Self catering for up to 12 people. Six bedrooms and four bathrooms in the main house. Additionally there is a separate self-contained annex with kitchenette, large shower and all facilities for extra accommodation.
The whole facility is let as one.
AIR CONDITIONING
Air Conditioning was added to all bedrooms in 2022 which is a game changer for anyone letting in July and August.
The house is situated in the middle of 15 acres with fantastic, unspoilt 360 degree views of adjoining vines and countryside. There is total privacy and relaxation. It is ideally set up for two families with au pair or granny with two en suite bedrooms on the ground floor.
A brand new hand made kitchen is being installed February 2020. Kitchen has a wood burner, large table for 12, all mod cons, a large sitting room with wood burner, TV and three external terraces (one covered) with tables and chairs. Each has further seating for 12 people.
THE POOL
We have a magnificent 15m x 7m salt pool, heated to 29 degrees throughout the season, with an automatic retractable electric hard cover for added security. It has a 2m shallow 'D' end which is perfect for toddlers or for sundowners!
We have 8 sun loungers and pool seating area. All the pool furniture is the top of the range Sahara by Bramblecrest, including the parasols.
WHAT TO DO AT THE HOUSE
We have a floodlit boules pitch, 4 bicycles, table tennis, darts board and acres of mown grass to play anything from croquet, cricket, short tennis to baseball, and we have most of the gear!
For youngsters we also have a twin tower climbing frame with slide, swings, see-saw, rock wall, rope bridge and picnic table.
The view is calm and relaxing so you can sit back, sunbathe, swim, sleep, eat, drink and just chill out!
SHOPS
Our local village is Loubes Bernac, 1km up the hill and it has a mini Intermache which caters for all essentials. Nadine will pre-order your breakfast croissants and bread and we also have three bakeries within 6kms including one who cooks in the old fashioned way over wood.
The nearest big town is St Foy La Grande (12 kms away) and there is a huge LeClerc supermarket which stocks everything including live lobsters in a tank!
More shops including the upmarket Grand Frais supermarket can be found in Bergerac about 15 kms away.
MARKETS
There are traditional French markets in various nearby towns on most days but the best is Ste Foy market on a Saturday (advise to go early in summer holidays), Miramont on a Monday and Bergerac on a Wednesday and Saturday. Eymet market is on a Thursday and is very popular too. There are weekly night markets in the summer.
RESTAURANTS
There are a variety of restaurants around the region and our A-Z Guide lists about 30 of them from Michelin star gastro to value for money family establishments.
Alternatively we have a gas Weber BBQ, a charcoal Weber BBQ and our 'famous' open fire pit is often the chosen venue. We can also arrange a local caterer who will shop, cook, deliver and serve on request.
WHAT TO DO IN THE AREA
There is a championship golf course at Chateau des Vigiers and horse riding, fishing, tennis, canoeing - all within 5 or 6 miles.
Bastide towns are all around and of course wine tasting opportunities everywhere.
The historic town of St Emilion, a World Heritage Site is 25 kms away and the lovely old town of Bergerac with its large central church, covered market, selection of restaurants and river Dordogne is only 15 kms away.
The beautifully restored city of Bordeaux is about an hour and a half away (it has a very good park and ride system) and the beautiful beaches of Archacon and incredible Dune de Pyla (highest sand dune in Europe) is about a 2 hour drive away (more ++ in the height of the season!)
Alternatively you can just drive up La Tuilliere's 300 yard long drive, over the bridge (pull up the drawbridge - metaphorically speaking) through the avenue of trees to a real piece of paradise with total peace and relaxation.
CAR HIRE
Car hire is available from Bergerac or Bordeaux airports.
In addition, we also have a Renault Megane Cabriolet (2+2) which is available for £75 per week in case an extra car is needed to go to the shops or golf course. It is fully insured for any driver over 21 with a clean licence.
LA TUILLIERE HISTORY
We have owned the house since 1987 when we bought a wreck that had not been lived in for many years. The last 30 years has been a labour of love devotedly renovating, improving and maintaining it!
In 2013 La Tuilliere underwent a major face lift. The pool was replaced and a salt water system installed as well an electric hard cover. The old pool room was converted into a separate self contained suite with kitchenette, Italian shower and loo and the pool equipment rehoused in a purpose built 4 bay oak framed garage.
In September 2015 we totally refurbished all the main house bedrooms and bathrooms, re-plastered all the walls and ceilings and replaced the old windows with bespoke double glazed windows.
MOBILITY
For anyone with limited mobility there are two double bedrooms on the ground floor with en-suite shower, toilet and bath facilities, plus there is the self contained pool room suite with its own kitchenette.
CATERING
If you would like to have some food in the fridge, a simple meal ready for your arrival or a special meal catered at La Tuilliere, we can direct you to a local cook who would discuss your requirements directly.
CLEANING
We allow four hours for our cleaners to clean and prepare for the next guests. If you require more help, please let us know beforehand or discuss directly with the Jayne (our fabulous House Manager) who manages everything and is fluent in both French and English.
POOL MAINTENANCE
The pool is fully maintained and cleaned on a weekly basis. With its electric cover closed at night, you only need to skim the surface with a net from time to time. You are not expected to do anything with the pool other than swim and have fun in it.
GARDEN
The garden is fully maintained throughout the year.
