About the home

This house has been newly renovated in keeping with the old French way. The stone has started to be stripped back to it's original glory and gives the house that amazing old charm feel. The house has three bedrooms with stunning views of the village and sounding area out of the main bedroom window, a pull out sofa bed for those unexpected guests, bathroom with toilet and shower, lounge, dining and full kitchen. Downstairs is the laundry with washer and dryer another toilet and full lock up garage.

You can enjoy a wine on the terrace overlooking the village and beyond, hot air balloons fly over in the late evening, which makes for a great photo.
The local Cenac markets are on a Tuesday morning and the market in Domme are on a Thursday - pick up some local produce and products direct from the farmers and business owners.

The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Dordogne region

"The Dordogne is for many people the picture-perfect image of the French countryside, a gentle landscape of patchwork firels, hiltop towns, turreted masions and jade-green woods. The Dordogne is famous for its stunning cave paintings as well as for its many fortified chateaux and bastide towns, reminders of the bollody battles waged her during the middle ages and he hundred years war"

The Cenac / St Julien de Cenac area

Cenac/Domme is well positioned for exploring the chief sights of the Dordogne valley, with its amazing castles, stunning gardens and breathtaking views all within a 5 mile drive. This beautiful town is at the top of the hill from our picturesque village house.

About Domme :
"On the edge of a cliff, Domme offers a vast panorama over the Dordogne valley. Enclosed by walls, this bastide village founded by Philip the Bold in 1283, tells of its glorious past through its fortified gates and towers, where Knights Templar were once imprisoned. The visitor will also discover the consuls’ and the goldsmiths’ houses, the old covered market and the governor’s hotel. Domme offers the green luxury of its suspended gardens above the Dordogne valley.
“Domme is a dream. It is a perfect little town, beautiful at first sight, even more beautiful when being visited and explored. Anyone would wax lyrical about it and for beauty it beggars description. It stands like a jewel in golden stone, on a tall hill, overlooking a switchback, winding road that heaves itself up through a just wide enough gateway and into the outer square of the town.” (Neal Lands “History, People and places in the Dordogne”).

The village has two bakeries a butcher, cave (wine bar), fresh fruit and veggie shop and a cake and sweets shop. So a quick stroll every morning will get you your fresh croissants and baguettes, meat, fruit and veg and treats for the day

“location, location, location” if you have a little car, especially with a GPS, this is the fabulous location, comfortable, cosy and right in the middle of everything you want to see without feeling crowded.

“Unique French home in a picture postcard village” We loved everything about staying here, the house is beautiful from the street and this is what attracted us to it. Inside we were not disappointed either, the owners have thought of everything,... more

Guestbook for French Connections

Hi Graeme & Lisa,
We had a wonderful time in France and really enjoyed our time in Cenac and the surrounding Dordogne area. The information you gave us about market days and things to see nearby was invaluable. Thanks so much. Attached is a photo we took the morning we left the house. It is the view from your front gate.
Kind regards,
Michelle & Greg. Brisbane, Australia

Hi Lisa. Your house is beautiful!, so is Cenac. I loved the Dordogne, Thanks Carrie, Canada

Hi Graeme & Lisa
Many thanks again for having us last week. I think it was the best part of our whole time in France. We luckily arrived the day before the Cenac Grand Fete, so we had a great day & night there. It was a really good insight into the people around town, especially later on in the evening! We spent quite a lot of time at the pub/restaurant at the end of the street. The girls there have really got the place moving well.

Wendy was especially helpful. I'd left my passport in the house we stayed the week earlier and she was instrumental in making sure we had it sent on correctly. She's a great asset to your business. I think we'll be back again sometime.Kind regards, Tony & Kyle, Tasmania, Australia

Hi Graeme and Lisa
Ben and I really enjoyed our visit to Cenac. The experience, the food and the weather were all great.
Thanks Alison, Australia

Hi - The house is great, we're having a fantastic time in Cenac and walking up to Domme, and visiting all the sights there are around this lovely area. I wish I'd listened more in French class at school. Thanks for the tip re the internet access at the TABAC and pub down the road. Thanks Taryn, Canada

We had a fantastic holiday and loved our time in Cenac. What a gorgeous location (Cenac) and such a unique house in a great location in Cenac. We enjoyed the proximity to Domme and the additional opportunities that it offered food-wise. Liz Jericho, South Australia
