About the home
Le Chai has been renovated from an old stone farm building at the back of the Manoir garden. The property benefits from the morning sun at the front and the afternoon / evening sun at the back. It features many of the original beams and stonework, with great views of the golf course and open countryside.
This spacious cottage comprises an open plan kitchen / dining / living area at ground level, with a w.c. and shower room. An oak staircase leads up to a mezzanine double (or twin) which overlooks the living space. There is a small terrace at the front and one at the rear, with steps leading down to a shared garden which in turn backs onto the golf course.
The property comes equipped with all of your tableware and kitchen requirements and laundry facilities are provided close by. Extra equipment is often available on request, particularly for babies and children.The garden is furnished with sun loungers, outside dining and a BBQ, perfect for enjoying the long summer evenings!
Please note that we have two different but equally charming 'sleeps two' cottages on site, as well as a choice of smaller or larger properties.
Longeveau itself adjoins a small hamlet in a beautiful valley designated by the Michelin Guide as 'A Place of Special Beauty'. As well as a superb range of facilities, we offer the opportunity for families or groups to socialise with others. Or simply appreciate the peace and quite of your own company!

The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Dordogne region
The region is known for it's great climate with sun drenched summers, rolling green hills and valleys as far as you can see, plus all the history you could ever need. The food and drink is superb and the people are welcoming. The area is a paradise for wine lovers who may wish to visit the numerous chateaux and wine caves on the Bordeaux wine trail.
The Aubeterre/Verteillac / Saint Severin area
Longeveau is located on the Charente / Dordogne border in a beautiful valley in rural South West France. Nearby villages are full of activity, with places to visit, dine and drink. The picturesque old Roman town of Aubeterre, which was recently voted one of the prettiest villages in France, is only a bike ride away. Discover the 12th century subterranean church carved out of the rock or enjoy a drink on the village square with it's variety of shops, eateries and museums, all overlooked by a 1,000 year old chateau. Alternatively walk down to the river beach for a swim, relax or a bite to eat.
The market town of Riberac (20 mins) has one of the biggest markets in France! The capital towns of Angouleme and Perigueux (45 mins) offer a wider and more sophisticated range of shops in a typically French setting. Brantome, nicknamed the 'Venice of Perigord' is well worth a visit at a similar distance. Also within easy reach are towns such as St. Emilion, Bergerac, Cognac and Bordeaux, all famous for their wines and spirits and equally beautiful places to visit.
Local activities range from walking, sight seeing, tree climbing, canoeing, cycling, fishing, or even jet–skiing and quad biking to name but a few. Wine tasting and degustation are of course a staple part of the French experience! There are a variety of local festivals, fetes and firework displays that take place throughout the summer in the local villages and towns. These are aimed at all ages and generally take place between the months of June and September.
Children will find plenty to occupy themselves and their families with activities ranging from crazy golf, horse riding and tree top adventure's to daytrip's to the popular attractions of Aqualand Water Park, La Palmyre Zoo and Futuroscope. Longeveau is fortunate to have a number of very good restaurants in the area, ranging from cafés to fine dining. As with everything, our staff will be happy to recommend or help you with decisions.
