Situated on the edge of the Dordogne region, near the historic town of Ste Foy-la-Grande, Les Saules provides a great base for a family holiday exploring all that this area of France has to offer. Our beautiful old stone cottage, with large private heated swimming pool, sleeps up to 6 people. The cottage has been renovated to a very high standard and offers a great deal of space and comfort in peaceful surroundings.

If you are planning an active holiday there is plenty to do; canoeing along the River Dordogne, horse riding in the local village, golf at Château des Vigiers or cycling along the quiet country lanes. We are located close to St Emilion and Bergerac so if you have an interest in wine Les Saules is the perfect location for your holiday.
