Description from owner
Description
A tranquil, private and secluded 4 bedroomed cottage and barn conversion, with swimming pool and private garden. Situated in the "Parc natural regional Perigord Limousin", Pontarnaud is about 10km from Brantome, the "Venice of the Dordogne". Enjoying a perfect blend of modern facilities and french charm, the ground floor has a unique tiled living-room, with a stone fireplace, which continues on to the outside terrace. This leads to a south-facing dining-room, one of three choices of internal eating areas. There are two east-facing bedrooms (one double and one twin) with large picture windows looking out into the garden. These two bedrooms share a bathroom with a large separate shower, bath and bidet.
The light and spacious modern kitchen and adjoining walk-in pantry have all the amenities and utensils you would expect in your own home. Off the kitchen is a very large utility room with a new washing machine and tumble dryer, with plenty of room, whatever your storage needs. On the first floor is an additional large lounge/den with full-length windows overlooking the courtyard, equipped with satellite tv, Nintendo Wii, games, DVD player and CD/Radio/iPod player.
Bedroom three is a double, leading through to bedroom four, a twin-room with a full en-suite bathroom, including shower.
The garage/games room has a table tennis table and mini snooker table.
Outside, the pretty, well-stocked private garden is bordered by formal yew and box hedges, and provides a superb environment for eating and relaxing outside. Pontarnaud is part of a very small hamlet of four houses, which also boasts a small working dairy farm.
Pontarnaud is within easy reach of beautiful towns and villages like Saint-Jean-de-Cole and Saint-Pardoux-la-Riviere, as well as ancient wonders like the caves and cave-paintings of Villars and the plentiful rivers and wildlife of the region.
This property is very flexible and ideal for either one or two families to enjoy, and there is a cot should you need one.

“Great family holiday in the Dordogne”
Pontarnaud was an unqualified success. The accommodation was perfect for the family holiday - enough space for all the generations. The property was well equipped and the gardens and the pool were well used. We were blessed with two weeks good weather and were able to bbq every night - the Weber worked well! Andy was very helpful - he arranged transport from and back to Limoges airport. The pool was cleaned twice weekly. The property had more books than some libraries and the kitchen was well equipped. We visited Brantôme on a regular basis - a beautiful small town with a Friday market and lots of places to eat.

“A beautiful and very well-equipped house in a tranquil location”
We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Pontarnaud! Our party was made up of a family of five and a couple, and the size and layout of the property meant that we could easily spread out and not get under each other's feet. The house is huge and is beautifully decorated and furnished, and it stays lovely and cool even when it is very hot outside. We made good use of the wonderful kitchen, which is equipped with everything you could possibly need. The pool was set in a lovely big garden which was completely private, being enclosed by a tall hedge, and the garden was mainly laid to lawn but had a number of trees and shrubs. The position of the property makes it ideal for a 'get away from it all' holiday as it was in a very small hamlet - it did mean that you had to drive a little way to get provisions, but the tranquillity of its location more than made up for this. We didn't venture too far as we really wanted a week of doing not very much at all, but we did discover beautiful Brantome, which is a very pretty little town on the river Dronne, and we hired some canoes out here. We also visited the village of St Jean de Cole, which is a very special place and should not be missed on a visit to the area. Andy and Fiona were very generous hosts and the house had a real 'home from home' feel to it. We have no hesitation in recommending this property to other holidaymakers who are looking for a lovely and comfortable place to stay in a quiet and peaceful part of the Dordogne.
