Characterful French maison surrounded by nature, with lovely views

In the heart of walnut country and located down a dusty farm lane, Les Maratoux is oozing Périgordian wonder. Surrounded by rolling valley views, this rustic maison is a haven of peace and tranquility.

Entering this stone house from its private garden you arrive in the heart of any home, the kitchen. With traditional terracotta tiled floor, stone walls and strong ceiling beams it will be clear that you have arrived in rural France. Chez Les Maratoux is rustic-chic, with some modern touches throughout making it a perfectly comfortable space to be in, whilst remaining positively romantic and unspoilt.

On the ground floor there is a large bathroom with corner shower, w/c and bidet. A twin room with small window which faces the back garden, perfect for children, and nice and cool during the summer months.

The second floor is accessed via a wooden staircase, here you have the master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, second shower and w/c. The master bedroom is dual aspect, with the kind of open countryside views that dreams are made of. Antique furniture and seagrass carpet finish this uncomplicated yet delightful light-filled room nicely.

Across the landing is the main 'salon' living room, a spacious room with traditional fireplace and wood burning stove. A large rug covers the original wooden floorboards along with several armchairs and a comfortable sofa. This room is also dual aspect and has double doors which give direct access to the garden via stone steps. Exceptional valley and countryside views are a given in this house providing the perfect back drop to any family holiday.
