Home description
Where beauty, history and medieval architecture meet in one place. This idyllic apartment is located in the prime position, inside the city walls of Sarlat. It is France at its enchanting best.
The apartment is located on the first floor of a building dating back to the 14th century in a very quiet street on the corners of the Rue Fénelon and the Rue du Présidial. Whilst being in the heart of the historical centre, it is just a few steps away from the hustle and bustle of the main square.
A charming balcony provides the ideal viewing platform of the mediaeval streets below. Enjoy a French coffee and croissant, lunch, dinner, or perhaps a lazy afternoon with a good book and a glass of wine or champagne.
This apartment features a living, dining, and kitchen area. Exposed honey coloured stone and natural timbers highlight the apartment to create a warm and traditional atmosphere. The large bedroom has a queen size bed (160cm x 200cm). There is a separate bathroom and toilet. In the living area a fold out bed provides comfort for a 3rd person or child.
There is parking within 50 metres of the apartment.
