Description from owner
Description
Château Cottage is an exquisite stone residence dating from the late 1700's. Formally the owner's private home, this historical 4-bedroom, 2 full-bathroom property has been carefully renovated and lovingly furnished.
Doted with antique furniture, chestnut high-beamed ceilings and meter-thick stone walls, this charming, bright and welcoming retreat is a pure delight. Built after the French Revolution with honey-coloured stones from the adjoing Castle of Carlux, this villa blends the authentic, traditional style of the Perigord region with the full comforts of modern living.
Chateau Cottage is ideally located in the heart of the beautiful and peaceful medieval village of Carlux in the Dordogne Valley near Sarlat with plenty of parking and all amenities within walking distance, yet only a short drive to major historical sites.

“Aww...Carlux has spoiled us.”
No home could have been as perfect for our extended family of 10 as this place in Carlux. Probably the favorite of everyone was being next to the castle. Each of the grandchildren (ages5,9,10 and 13) … More

“Wonderful family home in the centre of a small historical French Village.”
My husband and I stayed with our daughter and son-in-law and 2 grandchildren in this lovely home for 6 days in October. There were toys and and a sandpit for the children and the large country kitchen had everything you could possibly need. Opening up the shutters of the bedroom windows in the morning to the view of the beautiful valley below was a joy. As it was hot when we stayed there, we made full use of the outside spa. There is a small shop a few minutes down the hill where we walked in the mornings to pick up our bread and milk. This is a great spot for exploring the Dordogne and we would definitely stay here again.

“Wonderful place, wonderful stay!”
It's always so hard to know what you're going to get with a place you've only seen and heard about on the 'Net. Our Chateau Cottage rental completely lived up to my expectations. In fact, it was even better. The location of the Cottage is right in the heart of the little town of Carlux, just minutes away from so many great sites throughout the Dordogne area. We were a family of 7, with two grandparents, a great-aunt, two small kids, and my wife and me. Comfortable, big beds for all of us, including a perfect kids' room with a single and a crib for our 3- and 1-year-old. My parents loved the ground-floor bedroom with its easy access to the back patio and beautiful views of the valley. My aunt loved having her own room and her own lovely views of the valley. And my wife and I were right next to the kids' room, with our own window onto the quiet town square. The owner was very responsive in making the reservation, answering all of my questions, and offering fantastic recommendations (highly recommend "La Gabarre" in St. Julien!). We were greeted upon arrival and given the full rundown of the house and all its amenities. We particularly loved the nice, big refrigerator with ice machine (hey, we're Americans; we LOVE our ice!), washer and dryer, wonderful hot tub with views over the valley, and the wifi and TV (we used a lot of the former, though none of the latter). I really would recommend this rental to anyone who's thinking of staying anywhere near the Sarlat/Perigord Noir area. It's very clean, very quiet, full of comfortable furniture and room for the kids to play (oh, and toys! lots of toys for the kids!), and the views are great. It was always so cool to drive home after a day of touring to be able to come "home" to our delightful little house tucked beside the chateau's wall. This house and the area were our favorite of the trip, and I only hope you have as much fun and make as many great memories as we did.

“A CHARMING HOUSE FOR EXCELLENT HOLIDAYS”
We spent a fantastic holidays week in this property, very well comunicated and at a comfortable distance from the major interesting visits in the area. The house is located in a small, quite but handy village.We travelled with 5 children and we can very much recomend this house for families and friends ,the propietor will help you with anything you may need, offering a beautiful room decorated for children, baby bath, baby seat, even toys etc. The whole house is cozy and nice decorated with all you can ever need in the kitchen. From its privileged position you can enjoy the views from the terrace with the castle tower in one side, the sky full of stars and the jacuzzi! we look forward to come back to this beautiful region and this fantastic house.
