Situated just 200 metres from the crystal clear Céou swimming river, Gite St. Cybranet offers an oasis of peace, privacy and comfort in the heart of the Dordogne. This charming gîte for two has been stylishly renovated into a luxury holiday home and is situated on the former private grounds of the Brigitte Bardot family.
Through a gate next to the church square you enter a sheltered courtyard, where the cottage nestles peacefully. It overlooks the beautifully maintained grounds and a stately driveway lined with ancient plane trees. Originally built in the 18th century as the home of the estate’s caretaker, the cottage exudes history and charm.
Description
The front door opens into a bright and welcoming living space with a comfortable seating area, smart TV, mood lighting and a round dining table. The fully equipped kitchen has modern appliances including an oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, coffee maker, kettle and toaster – ideal for preparing local specialities.
The spacious bedroom has a comfortable double bed (150 cm), bedside tables, lighting and a chest of drawers. Adjacent is the modern bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower, washbasin and a heated towel rail. The gite is all on one level, has central heating and free Wi-Fi.
Outside
Through the kitchen you reach a private, partly covered terrace with dining table and chairs - perfect for a dinner in the evening sun. Two sun loungers invite you to relax in peace. The gite has private parking directly in front of the gate or next to the cottage.
Just 200 metres away you will find an idyllic swimming spot on the River Céou, complete with picnic area on the bank - a unique luxury on warm days. The River Dordogne, near medieval Castelnaud, also offers opportunities for swimming or canoeing.
Please note:
Although the country house is on the same grounds, the British owners only stay on the estate occasionally. Their living area is on the other side of the grounds and your privacy is completely guaranteed.
Gite St. Cybranet is located in the picturesque village of St. Cybranet, in the beautiful Céou Valley. Within walking distance you will find a small supermarket, restaurant, petrol station/garage and in the summer a lively market and evening "marché gourmand". Cycling and walking paths run directly along the river.
Within a radius of 30 km are the highlights of the Dordogne: Domme, La Roque-Gageac, Beynac, Castelnaud and the castles of Les Milandes and Castelnaud. The prehistoric centre of Les Eyzies and the market town of Sarlat are also easily accessible.
