Set in the heart of the Périgord Noir, La Demeure du Bel‑Prat is a magnificent and charming residence built on the site of an ancient Gallo‑Roman villa. Originally composed of two adjoining houses, the property has been thoughtfully redesigned to offer both convivial shared living and genuine independence — an ideal layout for two families travelling together, or for grandparents wishing to enjoy a holiday with their children and grandchildren while still maintaining privacy.
The house extends over 250 m² and beautifully combines authenticity with modern comfort. Stone flagstone floors, exposed beams and traditional stonework enhance every room on the ground floor, creating an atmosphere that feels both warm and timeless. The luxurious kitchen opens directly onto the courtyard, while the spacious living room, centred around a monumental fireplace, is perfect for cosy evenings outside of peak season. The dining room, decorated with a period fireplace, antique mirrors and 19th‑century paintings, also overlooks the courtyard and adds a refined, historic charm to shared meals.
An original wooden staircase leads to the first floor, where parquet flooring brings comfort and elegance to the sleeping areas. The bedrooms are generous and beautifully appointed: a 35 m² double room with a fireplace, a twin room, a second double bedroom, and a master suite with its own bathroom featuring a bathtub, double basins and toilet. Two additional bathrooms, each with walk‑in showers, double basins and toilets, ensure comfort for all guests.
Outside, the property offers complete privacy and tranquillity just minutes from Sarlat. A tree‑lined courtyard provides welcome shade in summer, with a dining table set beneath the plane tree for long, leisurely meals. A barbecue is available, and a grapevine climbing over the terrace adds to the charm of this peaceful outdoor space. The secure private swimming pool — measuring 12 × 5.5 metres — is surrounded by lawn, making it ideal for children, and is equipped with sun loungers for relaxed afternoons in the sun.
The pool is open from 1 June to 27 September and is not heated.
The property is strictly non‑smoking and does not accept pets, ensuring a serene and impeccably maintained environment for all guests.
Le Bel Prat offers a rare blend of history, comfort and independence, making it a perfect Dordogne retreat for families and friends seeking authenticity, space and tranquillity in one of France’s most beautiful regions.
