In the Department of the Dordogne...

...in the Périgord Noir, on the heights above a village with all services, one of the loveliest small fortified manors you're likely to find here or anywhere in France. About 230 m2 living space inside; courtyard, stable, barn, garaging for two cars, in grounds of just over one hectare.
