A cozy nest with a four-poster bed, in the heart of Beynac

Our apartment, Le JACQUOU (40 m2), is located in the heart of the medieval village of Beynac-et-Cazenac, ranked as the 7th most beautiful village in France.

It consists of two rooms and one large bathroom.

Its castle, perched atop an imposing limestone cliff over 150 m high, overlooks the Dordogne River and seems straight out of the 12th century and the era of the Barons of Beynac. Access to Jacquou is via the old cobblestone path leading to the castle.

In the Middle Ages, the house’s walls were an integral part of the ramparts; in fact, one of the openings is a loophole. The house was renovated in the fall of 2012, resulting in a subtle blend of tradition and modernity. A tradition spanning over 500 years of history is reflected in the ochre-colored stone walls, the exposed wooden beams, and the pointed-arch window in the common room.

Modern features include: * a living area featuring a KITCHENETTE equipped with a refrigerator-freezer, dishwasher, 4 induction cooktops, a combination oven-grill-microwave, a DINING AREA with a table and 4 Altuglas chairs, and a LIVING AREA with a 2-seater sofa and ottoman, nesting tables, and a flat-screen TV. * one bedroom: double bed (140 x 190 cm) * a large bathroom with a sink, a shower stall with a spa feature, and a toilet.
