Castle Sarlat-la-Canéda - 1150m²

This gem is situated just 20 minutes from the famous medieval town of Sarlat-la-Canéda and in the immediate vicinity of the valley’s most beautiful sites (the châteaux of Beynac and Castelnaud).

More than just a château, this estate offers a level of cohesion rarely found on the international luxury market.

The vastness of its 20 hectares offers complete seclusion and absolute privacy.

Its rich history, combined with its modern facilities (sports annex, luxury suites, guest house), makes it one of the most exclusive properties in the Périgord Noir.

The main château houses sumptuous, light-filled reception rooms, a master’s kitchen, a large, richly decorated period library and magnificent themed suites (Venetian, Versailles, Grasse…) featuring luxurious amenities and commanding views over the valley.

Nestled at the heart of a 20-hectare private estate, the château is sheltered by its own mystical woodlands, private walking paths and terraces.

At the centre of this lush setting, a magnificent infinity pool (divided into two basins, with a fully equipped pool house) has been built on the exact site of the estate’s former water basins, offering a space for absolute relaxation against the backdrop of the meandering Dordogne River.

Sheltered from prying eyes and any disturbance, the property guarantees total privacy and absolute security.

A thousand-year history of royalty and nobility.

Originally built on a strategic hillside dotted with ancient springs, the Château stands as a living testament to France’s great history.

The estate played a leading role during the Hundred Years’ War.

Marked by successive architectural influences, the château retains a unique dual identity: its floors feature French fleur-de-lis tiles, whilst its walls bear the stencils of Saint George, symbols of the passage of English troops.

In the 18th century, the estate entered the circle of the French high nobility.

After the turmoil of the Revolution, the estate was enhanced in the 19th century by the addition of sumptuous Renaissance-style turrets, giving the château its current fairy-tale silhouette—a perfect blend of a medieval fortress and the romanticism of a fairy-tale palace.

Now fully restored, it houses a historic library where the coats of arms of successive families are hand-painted on the ceiling beams.

This château is not simply a property one treats oneself to; it is a rare privilege, the acquisition of a piece of French history suspended above one of the most beautiful valleys in the world.
