The Experience

You’re down a tiny lane in the middle of a hamlet, and just further on is your own private riverside garden – perfect for a barbecue or wild swimming. Kit leaves you with wine, so pour a glass and watch the swans glide by.

Kit is an art dealer so you’ll find original and interesting artworks on the walls. The kitchen is well equipped and you can pick up things to cook from the local market; spill out onto the terrace on balmy evenings or walk ten minutes to Pessac if you’re feeling lazy.

You can explore the river by canoe or tour local vineyards. Medieval St-Émilion is half an hour’s drive away, Bergerac is 45 minutes and Bordeaux is an hour.

Location

The neighbourhood

Stroll ten minutes along the river to Pessac, which has a grocer’s, boulangerie and restaurants, or drive to lovely St-Émilion in half an hour – stroll around the medieval centre, shop for souvenirs or tour the underground catacombs. There are thousands of vineyards in the area; ask Kit about private tours and tastings at some of the best. Outdoor lovers will find much to enchant on the Dordogne River: wild swimming, boating, fishing and bird-watching.

Local points of interest from Kit Bentley

  • Daily bustling markets brimming with local produce, foie gras, truffles, duck and local cheeses. Visit the markets at Castillon La Bataille. Eymet night market, Issigeac, Santa Foy La Grande, one of the largest in France
  • Wine lovers paradise. St Seurin de prats is close to Bergerac, Montbazillac and St Emilion, the world UNESCO heritage site amid the land of 1001 castles and fairy-tale flower meadows are a bevy of medieval towns and villages. Private wine tours available
  • Famed for its gastronomy, you can feast like a king without leaving the property. Gastronomic delights await you. There are 3 local restaurants in Pessac, 1 km. Michelin star restaurant in St Emilion and Bordeaux
  • Famous international artist lives next door. Private art courses available. Visit his studio and on-site gallery for that rare art experience. Art historian Elie Faure lived next door. The house is filled with original artwork.
  • Captivate life on the river. Glowing sunrises and sunsets. Fishing and wild swimming available from the foot of the private steps leading to the Dordogne. Kayaks and canoes available for hire in Pessac 1km
  • Wildlife takes central stage with swans cutting through the river and fish pirouetting from its tranquil waters. Lone fishermen drift silently past. This is a wonderful place to just be. Now that’s hard to find!
