Aquitaine,
Francia
Bring everybody. As well as a large sitting room you'll also find a games room with pool table, a separate dining room, a TV room with a huge screen and a kitchen with another dining area. All the rooms on the ground floor have French windows leading out to a lovely terrace for outdoor meals overlooking the lake and pool. Swathes of lawn are perfect for games or sunbathing and eleven acres of woodland are yours to explore. If you're a larger party (up to 18) you can also take The Grange, about 200m away with its own drive, two bedrooms and bathrooms and a private garden - perfect for those who want to be in the throng, then peacefully out of it.
View-filled bedrooms are traditional, bathrooms are plentiful and squeaky-clean. The kitchen is splendid and you'll find two good bottles of wine from the owners' cellar waiting, along with bread, cheese, pâté, and honey from the housekeeper's bees.
Thiviers is a ten-minute walk for a weekly market, a train station and plenty of restaurants and cafés.

- Welcome to the beautiful Château de la Guerinche, a much-loved château dating back to the 18th Century. The main Chateau can sleep 14 with the Grange an extra 4 - please let us know if interested
- The local town has 4 great supermarkets. A mixture of lovely restaurants. We have a butcher, 3 great bakeries and the most wonderful Saturday market which is a must-visit. We have a great cook living nearby for those interested
- Chateau de la Guerinchie was built in the early 17th Century for the Comtes de Tessyiere military family. Designed to be the archetypal manor house, the family helped design and create their perfect Maison. It stayed within the family for over 300 years
- The Chateau is around 2.5 hours to the large town of Bordeaux by car, 55 minutes to Limoges, 30 minutes to Perigueux and an hour to Bergerac. Both Limgoes, Bordeaux & Bergerac have airports with UK and French links
- Thiviers train station has links to trains to all major towns and even Paris
