Dominating the beautiful surrounding Aquitaine countryside from its elevated position, this magnificent Chateau with history dating back to the 15th Century is superbly located about an hour by car (or c.20 mins by helicopter) from Bordeaux and Bergerac airports.

With panoramic views over vineyards, orchards and meadows, the Chateau is located in the centre of its estate (around 23 acres), approached from front or rear by long driveways, and offers complete seclusion & privacy; however, several of the lively historic towns of the Bastide region are nearby, with a wide choice of restaurants, markets, shops and all other practical & leisure amenities.

The property also includes a guest/guardian cottage, with fully-equipped kitchen/dining room, salon, utility room, boiler room/store, 3 bedrooms and 2 bath/shower rooms.
The grounds are attractively landscaped with a range of trees and plants, and there are numerous individual terrace areas.
