Characterful 3 bedroomed large property with beautiful views and pool

Brantôme, often referred to as the "Venice of the Périgord," is a picturesque town nestled in the Dordogne region of southwestern France. Surrounded by the gentle flow of the River Dronne, it offers a charming blend of history, nature, and architecture. The heart of the town is its stunning 8th-century Benedictine abbey, founded by Charlemagne, which sits gracefully beside the river and beneath towering limestone cliffs. Brantôme’s old stone bridges, narrow lanes, and riverside cafés create a timeless, peaceful atmosphere. The town is known for its vibrant markets, especially on Fridays, and its appeal to artists, food lovers, and history enthusiasts. Visitors enjoy kayaking on the Dronne, exploring the troglodyte caves behind the abbey, or simply relaxing in the beautifully kept gardens. With its rich heritage, lush surroundings, and relaxed pace of life, Brantôme captures the essence of the Dordogne’s enchanting countryside charm.
