Chateau Tessyiere - Sieben Schlafzimmer , Schläft 14

This stunning 17th century château, found just 80km south of Limoges in picturesque rolling countryside, is the ideal base to explore the beautiful region of the Dordogne.

Château Tessyière is set within 15 acres of spacious grounds, gardens and orchards that open out onto to a lake with private woodland paths that lend themselves to leisurely strolls. The château had been in the same family for over 300 years – the Comtes de Tessyiere military family – and is the epitome of 17th century manor living.

Now restored, all the rooms in Château Tessyière are individually furnished to an exceedingly high standard and are full of authentic French fabrics, antiques and silks.

Château Tessyière is a truly magical holiday destination for kids, particularly those with a love for the outdoors, set within 11 acres of mixed woodland that will be sure to excite the imagination and adventurous spirit in kids of all ages.
Further exploration of the grounds will reveal a number of deer, a fantastic local birdlife, a thriving world of creepy crawlies and a lake with many resident fish. There is also golf, canoeing and horse riding a short distance from the property.

For those who prefer to stay within the comfort of the château there is no shortage of indoor entertainment including table football, badminton, and an extensive movie library for older kids, as well as a dolls house and toys for the younger ones.

Location:

The nearest airports are Limoges (60km) and Bergerac (85km) and the nearest town is Thiviers, just over 1km away. Thiviers is a sizable traditional market town. It has three supermarkets plus a good range of shops, bars and a great market in the square on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The N21 runs between Limoges (68km) and Périgueux (33km) south of Thiviers. This is at the centre of the truffle and fois gras region of France at the northern end of the Dordogne. The château is found north-east of Saint-Émilion and the Bordeaux vineyards, north of the Bergerac wine area and south of the Loire. This is the perfect country for a food and wine tour. The castles of the Dordogne and fantastic Grotte de Villars are all also in close proximity.

Popular local activities include tennis, golf, canoeing, cycling, walking, bird watching and nature trails. A beautiful horse race track can be found at the Pompadour just 40 mins to the east. Throughout the spring and early summer months National Hunt, eventing and dressage events take place.
