As is common in country cottages in France, there is one main living area and this measures a spacious 33.5m2. At one end of the room is the kitchen which has a range of built-in units. There is a fireplace with a wood-burning stove and an old bread oven is a reminder of days gone by. Exposed beams add character to the room which is tiled and doubles as both sitting and dining room. Also on the ground floor is a bedroom with en suite shower room and WC. On the first floor is the second bedroom which is very large (23m2) and has sloping ceilings and a Velux window and also a shower room with WC. From the garden, there are magnificent views of the very beautiful Perigord Vert countryside surrounding the property. The plot measures 377m2 in total.

Richard the Lionheart attacked Piegut in 1199 and demolished the castle, leaving only the Tower of Piegut. The locals have got over it now (time is a great healer) and are ready to welcome you to the town's excellent restaurants and bars. Piegut's weekly market is said to be one of the best in France - and that's saying something.

There are 5 airports within 2 hours' drive (Angoulême, Limoges, Poitiers, Bergerac and Bordeaux) and the ferry port of St Malo is about 5 hours by car.
