The Experience

Your delightful hosts have combined the best of modern design with old French charm and travellers’ treasures to create a thoughtful elegance and different moods in each room. Fabulous Dordogne views top it all off and help to make this handsome 17th-century house special. Bedrooms full of light, originality and comfort lead to excellent bathrooms.

The living and dining rooms breathe the simplicity and warmth of glowing wood against old stone. On fine days you take breakfast on the view-filled terrace: freshly baked bread and viennoiseries, homemade jams, seasonal fruits. Dinner is offered three times a week and ingredients are local and organic whenever possible – Stephanie holds cookery courses and truffle weekends in winter.

Take a hot air balloon ride from the garden, over the river and the magnificent châteaux along its banks – even if you don’t go up it’s a magnificent sight. The nearest restaurant is just across the field.

Reviews

Sttephen, Torquay

Les Hauts de Saint Vincent is a real gem. We really enjoyed our stay. Stephanie was a fantastic host. The house is located close to Chateau Milandes which is well worth a visit. Bicycles can be rented from Castelnaud La Chapelle for a ride on the Voie Verte. We really do hope to return again.


Dawn, Poole

This is an exceptional house in a wonderful setting with amazing views onto the Dordogne. Stephanie is a wonderful host and you are made to feel very welcome in her beautiful home, which has been renovated to a very high standard. Bedrooms and bathrooms reflect this, all stylishly decorated and spotlessly clean. Breakfasts were delicious and featured homemade yogurts, homemade preserves as well as fresh fruit and pastries. Stephanie went to a lot of trouble to cater for two coeliacs in my family who require a gluten-free diet. The pool was bliss on the hot days! We hope to return!

Introducing

Fabrice & Stephanie Berbessou

Fabrice and Stephanie live in another part of the house with their fox terrier. They have completely renovated what was an abandoned farmhouse and turned it into this shining B&B. Stephanie is an excellent cook and it is Fabrice who will whisk you off in his balloon should you desire.
