Dordogne, France

Ch芒teau de Monrecour

Jump to:

An imposing neo-Renaissance mansion set in generous grounds in the heart of the Dordogne countryside, Ch芒teau de Monrecour dates back to the 15th century but was largely rebuilt in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Its turreted towers and grand proportions are matched by a relaxed atmosphere, personal service and fine food. A modern annex houses additional rooms and two swimming pools sit in the gardens.

Inside the main chateau are ten guest rooms decorated with touches of period style such as exposed wooden beams, terracotta tiles and antique furnishings. The 21 rooms in the newly built annex have more modern decor, yet are still in keeping with regional style. All rooms are equipped with Wi-Fi and air conditioning, and there are many options offering additional space for families who wish to stay together.

The hotel restaurant, La Table de Monrecour, offers gastronomic and bistro-style dishes typical of the region for both lunch and dinner. Along with the swimming pools, the chateau also has a library, table tennis and p茅tanque set (similar to bowls), and you may see hot air balloons taking off from the generous grounds. Ch芒teau de Beynac is just a ten-minute drive away.

OUR OPINION:

A great option for both families and couples looking to stay in an authentic castle in the Dordogne countryside, Ch芒teau de Monrecour offers easy access to the Dordogne鈥檚 main sights as well as a swimming pool.

Rooms

The 10 rooms in the original chateau are decorated in traditional period style, some with four-poster beds, original fireplaces and antique furniture. The rooms differ across the three categories: Charme, Luxe and Family Charme, but all have modern amenities such as Wi-Fi and air conditioning. Some also offer views of Ch芒teau de Beynac and the Marqueyssac gardens in the distance. The other 21 rooms are located in the newly built annex that surrounds the swimming pool. These rooms are decorated in the style of the region with stone walls, terracotta tiles or exposed wood beams but with crisp modern furnishing, showers and sometimes a bath.
