Manoir De Fouilloux

The villa

Manoir de Fouilloux, the original manor house of a tiny Dordogne hamlet, has been beautifully restored to its former glory, blending historic character with stylish modern comfort. Set at the end of a long private drive, the property sits within 5 acres of gardens with mature trees and a young orchard. At the front, a large terrace spans the width of the house, offering dining and seating areas overlooking the heated pool, sun terrace with loungers, and a shaded hot tub for six. The rear courtyard, designed in a Moroccan style, features a central water fountain, a fully equipped summer kitchen, and a shaded dining area.

The single - storey main house includes a farmhouse - style kitchen, a living room, a dining hall, and three en - suite bedrooms, including a master suite with an adjoining daybed. A mezzanine gym is set in the adjoining barn, while the charming courtyard garden house offers a living room and an additional en - suite bedroom. Just 5 minutes from Saint - Aulaye with its shops, cafés, and restaurants, the manoir is perfectly placed for excursions to Saint - Émilion’s vineyards or the cultural treasures of Bordeaux.
