Monestier · Dordogne — Périgord Pourpre

Here, the days find their own rhythm.

An intimate guesthouse in Dordogne.

Enter the Manoir

The spirit of the place

The Manoir, more than a stop along the way — a destination in itself.

Here, the rooms are only part of the experience. The grounds, pool, terrace, water, local flavours and simple pleasure of having time create a place best discovered over several days.

No programme to follow. Simply enough time to alternate the Manoir, the pool, the terrace and the places around it.

Nature is part of the house.

The heated pool, the grounds, the water and the mature trees are not simply amenities around the house. They set the rhythm of the stay, from the first coffee in the morning to the last light of the evening.

Pool

A few lengths. Then nothing else to do.

A 10 × 5 metre heated pool, open to nature and reserved for the Manoir’s few guests. An hour here can easily become an afternoon.

Nature

Grounds, water and trees.

The landscape is not a backdrop. It is part of the stay: something to look at, listen to, walk through and return to.

Terrace lounge open to nature
In the shade of the Manoir

A living room open to nature.

It has become the quiet heart of the Manoir. Breakfast happens here, books are read in the shade, drinks are shared and the light is simply watched as it changes over the garden. Guests staying several days naturally return here.

From the first coffee to the last glass of the evening.

The summer kitchen

The pleasure of cooking outdoors.

A few finds from the market, time to prepare a meal together, and lunch lingering in the open air. The summer kitchen invites you to enjoy the Manoir from midday to the last light of evening.

The barbecue and plancha invite you to linger over a meal, while the pizza oven brings another flavour to the evening. With a hob and sink close at hand, everything can be prepared right here, at your own pace.

From market to table, at your own pace.

A sharing board at the Manoir
Make yourself at home

Take your time indoors, too.

Three shared spaces to settle in, spend time together or enjoy a quiet moment.

The living room

A living space to sit down, chat and enjoy the house at your own pace. Breakfast is also served here when the weather is not suited to the terrace.

The Manoir’s projects

The Manoir continues to evolve.

We continue to develop the property to enrich the time spent here without changing its spirit: quiet, intimacy and the pleasure of taking your time.

In development

Wellness space

A dedicated wellness space will enrich the stay with a spa, sauna and hammam, in the same intimate and peaceful spirit as the rest of the Manoir.

In development

Golf academy

A golf academy will take shape on the property for short game, putting and year-round practice — an additional experience, never a requirement.
