About the home
Part of an historic farm building complex, La Roque Terrace has a very pretty lounge, beamed ceilings, bedroom with en-suite shower room and a kitchen incorporating all of the modern necessities. Inside it benefits from plenty of natural light and outside it has a large private terrace with barbeque, table & chairs and large sun umbrella for those lovely sunny days. The wooden terrace leads directly to the swimming pool. The view from the terrace is especially interesting as it looks directly over to the world heritage site La Roque St Christophe which is floodlit at night.
This Gite is suitable for assisted mobility impaired people as it has level access and a "wetroom" shower room.
The tastefully renovated four ancient farm buildings provide luxurious accommodation sleeping from two to six adults or a total of twelve when booked as a whole.

The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Dordogne region
The land of a thousand chateaux, the Dordogne or Perigord as it was known,is split into four regions named for their natural features. Noir(black) region of dense forests, Vert(green) spruce trees, Pourpre(purple)vines and Blanc(white) natural limestone. Due to its natural beauty and abundance of medieval towns, chateau and villages, the perigord noir is the jewel in the crown of the Dordogne.
The Vezere Valley, with its predominance of prehistoric sites, makes this region one of the most visited. The medieval towns of Sarlat, Les Eyzies and the vibrant city of Perigueux and many traditional villages, each with a character of their own, including Domme, Rocamador, Beynac, Le Roque Gageac, Montignac with the famous Lascaux caves, St Leon sur Vezere, makes the region a real sight seeing experience.
The Peyzac Le Moustier area
The small village of Le Moustier derives its name from the prehistoric Mousterian era due to an important skull find there. It has a restaurant and boulangerie which is only 5 mins walk from the house and is situated between Montignac and Les Eyzies, site of the oldest prehistoric human remains.
The house is situated opposite Le Roque St Christophe, a site inhabited from prehistoric time until as late as the 16th century. This kilometer long cave carved into the rock thousands of years ago is lit up at night and makes a spectacular view from the house. Local activities include canoeing and kayaking on the Vezere with starting points at Le Moustier and at different stages along the river, horse riding, tennis, cycle hire. Golf, hot air ballooning, river cruises and more are all within 30 - 40 mins drive.

We have just returned from a week's stay in the gite - La Roque Terasse. Clean, spacious and with a fantastic view of La Roque Saint-Christophe, it was just right for the two of us. Paul and... more |

Staying in Le Roque Terrace was lovely. I've never stayed in a gite before and was a little disheartened by reviews that I had read about many of them. I was on my own, having lost my husband... more |
Guestbook for Le Roque Terrace
We stayed in The Roque Terrace at the beginning of September and we had a lovely time. The accommodation was perfect for use and Philippa and Paul were so helpful and welcoming. It is a great location for a holiday with lots to do and see and plenty of great restaurants. We definitely plan on returning to stay at The Roque Terrace.

This is just a note to say how much we enjoyed staying at your lovely Villa with our friends. We were in the group that visited 17-24 September and we stayed in Le Roque. It was perfect for us as my spouse has had knee surgery and she cannot manage stairs.
I cannot imagine all the work it takes to manage such a large place, but we wanted to let you both know that from our perspective it was all worth it. And as for the dinner with Edwin on Friday night, we can only say Wow! We will not forget our wonderful week at your home and have been telling all our friends.

Nous avons été enchanté par notre séjour en Dordogne et votre accueil.
Nous avons apprécié votre cadeau et toutes les petites attentions (vin, éponge, produits ménagers, assaisonnement, sèche cheveux).
Nous avons adoré pourvoir profiter de la piscine.

We stayed in La Roque Terrasse for two weeks from end of June to early July 2011.
A lovely accomodation in a very british style - we loved it very much. Everything was perfect!
We were also very lucky with the weather, up to 43 degrees Celsius. So Paul and Philippa, once again we want to thank you for the opportunity to use the big pool !
No question, the Dordogne and Vezere area is one of the most beautiful countrysides in France. It was very hard to leave.....
So all in all we really enjoyed out stay in Le Manoir des Granges. May be that we will come back in a few years.
Greetings from Germany,
Thomas & Steffi.
What can I say....everything was perfect!! Paul and Philippa made us so welcome, the gîte was amazing, very traditional, with such a lovely view of La Roque St Christophe. As a cyclist I found the area fantastic, miles and miles of quiet roads with picture perfect scenery, chateaux, hamlets of ochre stone, undulating valleys and lazy meandering rivers. I even got up at 5am just to cycle past La Roque St Christophe just to soak up the atmosphere. The weather was perfect too!! Thank you so much Paul and Philippa for such a memorable holiday....we will be back!! Lee Cook, Blackburn, Lancs
