148. La Combe

Romantic holiday home for 4 people in Domme

Domme, Perigord Noir (Dordogne)

Located inside the fortified walls of the medieval village of Domme (voted “one of the most beautiful villages of France’’), this fully restored stone cottage offers charming and comfortable accommodation for a couple or small family. La Combe has a master bedroom, a small bedroom, a bathroom, a large open-plan kitchen and dining room, and a bright and cozy living room. It also has a small secluded garden with table and chairs to lunch outside al fresco under the fruit trees while enjoying the extensive view over the fortified village walls. The house is set in a quiet street but is only 3 minutes walk from the shops, bars and restaurants of the bastide village. You can lie in bed enjoying the views over the countryside and send your partner to get the baguettes and croissants in the mornings! Or wander back home in the evening, after a delicious meal and a romantic stroll through the honey-coloured village.

La Combe was featured in the Travel section of the UK Sunday Times as one of the 12 most romantic places to stay in Europe. 

Description
From the doorstep made with traditional “pisé” (small pieces of stone set into lime) the front door opens into an open plan kitchen and dining area. The solid wood kitchen is fully equipped with an electric oven, hob, microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge-freezer. There is also large cast iron woodstove for those chillier evenings in low and middle season. Adjacent is the living room with a sofa, two armchairs, (TV for dvd, no channels) a coffee table and a large collection of French and English books. It has French doors which open onto the yard and the stone staircase that leads to the secluded garden. 
 

From the dining area, an oak spiral staircase leads upstairs to the bedrooms and the bathroom. The comfortably elegant master bedroom at the rear of the house, with its view over the valley from the dormer window, has a double bed and plenty of under-eave storage. The light and airy bathroom features a view of the fortified walls and has a full bath, shower, sink and toilet. The small bedroom to the front of the house, with its exposed wooden beams, has a double bed and comfortably sleeps one or two. The house has been restored using traditional and ecological materials including lime plaster, hemp insulation, natural paints and wood treatments and organic fabrics. It also runs on renewable electricity. It has been redecorated with a keen eye to detail whilst retaining many of the original features including exposed stone walls and wooden beams. There are also solid wooden floors throughout.

Outside
There is an enclosed sunny yard ideal for parking your bicycle. Up the stone staircase a small secluded garden features two fig trees, an apricot tree and an herb garden. A garden dining table and four chairs as well as deck chairs are provided. The garden offers shady and sunny areas to sit, relax and enjoy the view. The garden is on several levels and the old stone staircase accessing it is steep, which may make it unsuitable for families with young children. Parking: You have the option to temporarily load and unload your belongings in front of your house. There is a parking card for free parking. Afterwards, parking on the street or in the car park is free with the parking card. There are several parking spaces available within 100m of the house.

The house and the place is almost too good to be true!

Domme is an attraction in itself. Built in the 13th century, it stands above a bend in the river Dordogne. Its history is fascinating and its old buildings and streets have been perfectly preserved. It has restaurants of all grades, a weekly market and its own caves accessible from the market square. 
Within easy reach are the medieval town of Sarlat (much used in film sets), the amazing cave systems of Perigord, the spectacular chateaux of Castelnaud, Beynac and Montfort and the troglodyte villages of LaRoque Gageac and St Christophe.

Activities
Golf is available at the Domaine de Rochebois (7km away) and near Siorac. There is canoeing on the river, horseback riding 4km away and tennis courts are available at Domme.

My wife Diana and I have just returned from 2 weeks staying in property number 148 La Combe. We had a wonderful time.

The house itself is both cosy and picturesque. The views from the garden are delightful, far and wide, and Rue de la Porte is a quiet street, leading down to the town gate. Inside, the cottage is welcoming, comfortable and beautifully restored. Domme is an idyllic hilltop town, with lovely restaurants, shops, and amazing caves. There is a bustling market on Thursdays well worth a visit, and so many beautiful places to visit within easy reach.

We would love to come back one day to this 5 star cottage.

Een heerlijke week Een heerlijke week doorgebracht in het huisje. Domme is
een mooi dorp en een fantastische uitvalsbasis om te verkennen van. De
pre-historische locaties waren geweldig en verdient bijzondere aandacht is
de Font de Gaume. Je ziet eigenlijk de echte schilderijen op de grot! ...
We hadden een geweldige tijd en zal zeker terug in de Dordogne.
****************************************************************************************************************************
Zoveel te doen We waren blij met Lacombe cottage en hoe sympathiek het is
hersteld. We hadden heerlijke ontbijtjes onder de vijgenboom in de zon, op
het drukke dagen beginnen ... kano?n, kastelen, grotten, markten,
tyroliennes, zwemmen. Dus veel te doen. Een heerlijke plek om te verkennen
van en terug te komen voor een ontspannende avond.
****************************************************************************************************************************
Wat een prachtige plek om te verblijven - Domme is gewoon prachtig en
Lacombe 'home away from home', zo rustig, ontspannen en zeer uitnodigend?
... Wat je ook doet in dit deel van de wereld , voor altijd herinnerd zal
worden! Geniet zoals wij gedaan hebben.
****************************************************************************************************************************
Adembenemende ervaring Eerste keer in de Perigord en het moment dat we de
snelweg verlaten, de adembenemende ervaring was begonnen en is nog niet
gestopt. De prachtige landschappen, de prachtige authentieke dorpjes, de
grote verscheidenheid van historische en culturele plekken. Het huisje was
de perfecte plek om te verblijven. Prachtige stad, levendige overdag,
rustig in de avonden. We vonden de vrede en rust tijdens deze prachtige
week.
****************************************************************************************************************************
Perfecte plek voor onze huwelijksreis Het is de perfecte plek om onze
huwelijksreis door te brengen. Lacombe is bijna te mooi om waar te zijn -
het pittoreske, gezellige en leuke, maar wel met alle moderne voorzieningen
- we moesten onszelf? af en toe knijpen om ons te herinneren dat het
allemaal echt is en geen sprookje uit een verhalenboek.
****************************************************************************************************************************
10-17 october 09 What a wonderful place to stay-Domme is just gorgeous and
La Combe ?home away from home,? so peaceful, relaxing and very inviting
(it was tempting not to leave La Combe at all)?Whatever you do in this
part of the world, will be remembered forever! Enjoy as we did. Marsiea and
Jacqui, Australia

23-30 may 09 Spent a wonderful week in the cottage. Domme is a lovely
village and a fantastic base to explore from. The pre-historic sites were
amazing and worthy of particular note is the Font de Gaume. You actually
see the real paintings on the cave!...We had a terrific time and will
definitely be back in the Dordogne. Andrew and Velvet, UK?
****************************************************************************************************************************
Beste Rob vorig jaar september 2009 heb ik met nog 2 vrienden het huis La
Combe in Domme via jou gehuurd. Perfekt!! Groeten Katja Radsma
