Nestled in a peaceful hamlet just 2.5km from the charming medieval bastide town of Eymet in southwest France, Sainte Marthe is a beautifully restored collection of stone properties offering exceptional holiday accommodation in the heart of the Dordogne. Surrounded by 7 acres of private parkland and countryside, this idyllic retreat is just 20 minutes from Bergerac and its well-connected airport, making it a convenient yet tranquil escape for families, friends, and groups looking to explore the Périgord Pourpre wine region.
The estate features a spacious five-bedroom farmhouse, two self-contained gîtes (one with two bedrooms, the other with one), and a cosy studio with a double bed. Sainte Marthe can comfortably accommodate up to 20 guests, making it ideal for family holidays, group getaways, or special celebrations. Each property is thoughtfully designed with authentic charm and modern comfort, offering flexibility whether rented individually or together.
Set within rolling countryside, the grounds provide space for relaxation and outdoor fun. Children can explore safely, while adults enjoy the expansive gardens, woodland, and scenic views. After a day discovering local markets, vineyards, or nearby villages, guests can gather for al fresco dining on the garden or pool terraces under the stars.
Whether you're seeking a relaxing countryside break, an active holiday filled with local experiences, or a picturesque venue for a celebration, Sainte Marthe is the perfect base for your stay in southwest France. With easy access to renowned restaurants, historical sites, and the best of Dordogne’s natural beauty, it offers a truly memorable French getaway
