The Experience
This 17th-century barn is set opposite Andrew and Sue’s house but doesn’t feel overlooked. It’s a house for all seasons, with a huge fireplace in the living room (wood provided) and a separate TV room with plenty of DVDs, books and games, and some local guidebooks too – plus full fibre WiFi for those who need to work.
On arrival find a welcome hamper including local produce, tea, coffee and wine to get you settled in. You’re encouraged to make full use of the garden, where there are lots of seating areas including a covered dining terrace next to the pool with a smart Weber barbecue.
Explore the Corrèze region, which is much quieter and less well known but none-the-less gorgeous. Head to the Étang de Coucou (a 10-minute drive) for a lake with a beach, inflatables for children, a bar and a restaurant where food is cooked on a plancha.

Our second time staying here. Such a beautiful property in a very beautiful, tranquil location. House amazing, pool amazing. Will definitely be back.

Le Figuier is the perfect place for a relaxing holiday, away from crowds in a beautiful part of the Dordogne. The gite is airy and spacious and very well equipped. As a family of 5 adults, we enjoyed the layout of the place with plentiful bedrooms and different communal areas depending on whether you felt sociable, or just wanted a quiet corner to read. Plenty of options for dining inside or out, with great parasols too, when the sun became too hot. The pool was a real highlight - being saltwater there's no chorine to smell or sting your eyes, and it's a great size for swimming. Fabulous!

We stayed here in August and really loved the gite, the pool and the surrounding area. The gite is lovely and has lots of space and character. We were very well looked after by the owners and Ross and Joni who manage the property. Everything is very well kept and super-clean. We’d definitely return.

Location
The neighbourhood
You're in a very rural spot at the most northern point of the Dordogne with lovely walks all around, good vélo routes and quiet roads. There are shops and restaurants at Cherveix-Cubas, a 10-minute drive away. Hautefort is the same distance and has a wonderful château and gardens, a market, restaurants, a butchers and a bakery.
Local points of interest from Andrew & Sue Round
- At Le Figuier there are plenty of activities including the heated pool, table tennis, badminton, boules and croquet. There are several walks directly from the house and for the more adventurous there are more challenging river gorge walks.
- All the local specialities can be found at Brive and Perigeaux markets while the many night markets in the area give you the chance to sample them in a party atmosphere. One of these is at nearby Tourtoirac where you can also visit their famous caves.
- A visit to the Chateau at Hautefort (10 mins' drive) is a must. Either a visit during the day or in the evening in summer should be concluded with a meal at our favourite local restaurant in a small square under the walls of the Chateau.
- Despite being at the northern tip of the Dordogne the area's main attractions are all easily accessible including Sarlat, Montignac (Lascaux caves), Les Eyzies, Rocamadour and the many Chateaux and gardens along the river Dordogne.
- There are many places to canoe and kayak nearby plus many parks and attractions for adults and children alike. As well as the inflatables on the local lake at Hautefort our children particularly enjoyed the Velorail, cycling on a disused railway track.
- If you have an interest in wine Andrew will happily give you a tour of the small vineyard and explain the methods used to make the local country wine. This often concludes with a wine tasting in his cellar where local wine can also be purchased.

Introducing
Andrew & Sue Round
Andrew and Sue met when they were both studying music at university. Sue used to work at the Faculty of Music at Cambridge, Andrew qualified as an accountant and then had a long career in journalism. They always had their holidays in France so started to look for a house to buy. Le Figuier was the first house they went to view and they fell in love. They come here as often as they can.
An absolute gem! Strongly recommend. Staying here was an absolute joy. The building is beautiful, the pool delightful and the hosts genuine and kind. Thank you so much Sue and Andrew! Can’t wait to visit again.
