French art de vivre in the heart of Périgord Noir
Just a short distance from Sarlat-la-Canéda, at the heart of the most emblematic sites of Dordogne, Le Petit Manoir de Vitrac welcomes you for a stay where the French art of living comes naturally. Set within a 19th-century authentic property, four traditional stone holiday cottages open onto a 1.5-hectare landscaped park with a seasonal pool, offering space, tranquility, comfort and authenticity.
Charming and comfortable holiday cottages
Three 3-star rated charming cottages — Le Rosier, Le Pommier and Le Bois — are housed in a carefully restored former stone barn. Spacious and filled with natural light, each cottage enjoys its own large private garden, sheltered from view.
Each accommodation offers a welcoming living area, a comfortable sitting room, a fully equipped kitchen for relaxed, home-style dining, and air-conditioned bedrooms with high-quality beds, ensuring restful nights. A furnished terrace extends the living space outdoors, ideal for sharing a drink in complete privacy. Sun loungers invite you for a nap beneath the shade of the old trees.
Le Belvédère, a romantic escape for two
Unusual and full of charm, Le Belvédère is a tiny cottage set in an independent stone turret, offering a cosy and intimate retreat. Surrounded by nature, it is perfect for a romantic getaway for couples seeking a unique experience in the Périgord Noir.
The Dordogne way of life
In season, the saltwater swimming pool becomes the heart of summer days. A pétanque court, table tennis and carefully maintained natural surroundings invite you to slow down and savour the present moment. Early risers may be lucky enough to spot a roe deer or a hare, discreet inhabitants of the small woodland bordering the property.
An ideal location to explore the Périgord Noir
From the property, the highlights of the Périgord Noir are close at hand: medieval Sarlat, several “plus beaux villages de France”, castles, remarkable gardens and prehistoric caves. The River Dordogne, just 900 metres away, offers riverside beaches, swimming and canoeing, while walking trails lead directly from the estate towards the river and elegant homes hidden among the trees.
A discreet and attentive welcome
Your hosts live on site and, with discretion, are happy to share local restaurant recommendations, hidden gems and activity ideas, allowing you to experience the very best of Dordogne, even for a short stay.
