Saussignac chateau / country house Rental Property Information

Chateau de Fayolle, a romantic, 15th century, luxury, stone chateau to rent, with views across the Dordogne valley, is set amongst the vine-covered, gently undulating countryside south of Bergerac. Secluded but not isolated, the chateau is at the centre of a one hundred-acre estate with vineyard, which produces quality wines and is the prefect place for your dream holiday. Recently lovingly restored, the chateau is furnished with French antiques but with modern comforts. In the tranquillity of the walled garden you can sit in the shade of the giant cedars, stroll around the half-timbered pigeonnier and private chapel or relax by the private swimming pool. Staying at the Chateau de Fayolle offers you the unique experience of living life as a chatelain on a working vineyard. You can watch the gentle pace of growing grapes and making wine take place around you and will be invited to a complimentary private wine tasting and tour of the winery.
