Duck Egg Blue Shutters

When we think of a French cottage, we have this image in our head – mellow stone walls, pale blue shutters and pretty gardens – well, it's tick, tick and tick again with this gorgeous home. Spend idyllic days cooling off in the shared pool or have a game on the communal boules court. Then enjoy some French cheeses and truffles for lunch on your private terrace. If you have kids with you, there are plenty of activities for them, too, such as a sand pit and swing. Inside, exposed stone walls, hexagon-shaped terracotta tile floors and traditional furnishings create a charming place to stay.

When you fancy exploring, the River Vezere and River Dordogne are 7 kilometres and 18 kilometres away, respectively. For restaurants and supermarkets, head to Les Eyzies, around a five-minute drive away from this cute home.
