Its prominent place atop the Cliffside village of Beynac-et-Cazenac affords its guests breathtaking views of the Dordogne River, the entire valley, and of the village.

Now that's what we call relaxing!

Let me share a little more about the glorious town of Beynac and while this is the ideal location for your vacation...whether you arrive from the East or from the West, stunning views of the town invite you as you approach this Medieval cliffside town. You will find your breath taken away as you observe the little golden buildings with their antique tile roofs nestled amongst each other as they overlook the lovely river Dordogne. Like us, you'll be shocked that such a lovely place even exists! It will feel surreal as you spend your days enjoying all the Dordogne has to offer. There will be no question in your mind as to why Beynac is listed as one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France (Les Plus Beaux Villages de France)
La Maisonnette is the ideal landing pad for visiting the other small, picturesque villages in the area, and for enjoying other sights as well. Make sure you visit the Marqueyssac Gardens, the Lascaux Caves (oldest art on the earth), the famed outdoor market in nearby Sarlat, the 5 chateau within 5 minutes of Beynac, and take a canoe or boat ride down the river for unexpected and amazing views. And don't forget to take a tour of the castle you'll be staying right next to (the windows of La Maisonnette look out upon the old castle walls and the old city walls as well); the Chateau of Beynac is one of the best preserved in France. You'll feel as if you stepped back to the 12th century!

Summary: The most amazing place we have ever stayed in! This historical, darling, little cottage has been lovingly restored & so beautifully & thoughtfully decorated. We loved having a dishwasher, AC & good size washer & dryer. The book of instructions & tips for our stay was so helpful. I would highly recommend going on a hot air balloon ride, kayaking down the river (the 2 hour option was a perfect amount of time) & visiting some of the markets that are listed in the information binder. We didn’t want to leave & can’t wait to return!!

Summary: Where to begin? The host that met us was amazing (we spoke some french, she only speaks French-she was patient and gracious). The location is AMAZING. Bring your walking shoes. The local residents are very welcoming into their neighborhood. The food! Magnificent! The area has so much to do-shopping, museums, history! A wealth of activities! The balloons every morning launching from the fields below were a wonderful surprise to see. Even though I hesitate to share because I want

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at La Maisonette, nestled scenically at the base of the historic castle/fort of Beynac. The property was immaculately clean and easy to "figure out" (air systems, stove, wifi, etc.) thanks to really clear instructions from the owner and a very responsive and friendly local property manager. If you like to sit out quietly with your morning coffee, there is a quiet, serene garden. The town is not touristy (at least not in September) and a good base to explore the Dordogne River valley. We were very comfortable there and being light sleepers, loved the still, quiet nights. Also, no traffic as the house is off a pedestrian-only medieval lane with a parking lot up the road about 75 meters. All in all, a great place to call home for several days.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage. The host has written a very helpful orientation which I recommend the guests read as the caretaker doesn’t speak English and was difficult for me to understand with my intermediate French. The house was immaculate and all appliances worked.

Summary: Exceptionally nice place to stay with a very helpful guide to the house, town and neighborhood. Emma, who let us in was very helpful. Expect some steps up or down to the house, but it’s right next to the castle, and immaculately kept. And the views of the hot air balloons floating down the Dordogne is not to be missed!

Summary: Situated perfectly beside the iconic chateau, La Maisonette is a beautiful and comfortable hideaway, ideal for accessing the little town of Beynac. The town (in late August), despite being a significant tourist destination, is actually pretty quiet early on and in the evenings, especially up by the chateau. Most mornings you’ll hear the church bells singing out into the valley below, accompanied by the subtle burn of a couple of hot air balloons heading out over the chateau. It’s gorgeous in every direction and suited our party of two grandparents, two more standard parents and two children (aged 8 and nearly 5) right down to the ground. The terraced garden provided a fabulous warren for (supervised) adventures with swords and shields from the chateau. If you’re planning on sitting out at night it’s worth investing in a citronella candle or two, just to help keep the odd interested wasp at bay. Inside the house, we loved the layout and exceptionally high standard of finish. Our hosts couldn’t have been more helpful with an in-depth guide to the area and house itself, and the right amount of advance communication. Finally, while the walk down to the house is fairly steep, and the one down to the town itself much more so, it is so worth doing and staying here. To have such access to the region, and to a place people tend to visit for only one day, has been a wonderful change and an opportunity to “vivre comme les français.”

Summary: The cottage and castle grounds are beautiful. The cottage’s first floor has the kitchen, dining and small sitting area which is comfortable and air conditioned. The 2nd floor has two bedrooms, bathroom with a small shower and sitting room. This floor is not air conditioned which was difficult to tolerate when the temperatures outside were 90+. The 3rd floor has a king bed, a tub, sink and toilet (no shower) and IS air conditioned. The beds were very comfortable. My main complaint is a lack of shelves or drawers to unpack to. There was only a hanger rack so we had to leave most everything in the suitcase on the floor for the week, meanwhile having to be careful not to hit your head on the sloped ceiling on the 3rd floor. All in all it is a lovely cottage but definitely not for those who are not somewhat fit and agile.

Summary: For anyone thinking of a special place to spend time in the Dordogne Valley...this is it. Beautiful accommodations atop the winding steps to Castle Beynac. You feel like you are up among the clouds -- with a medieval castle at your front door. The sunrises are awesome. The castle at night is amazing. In the midst of a record busting heat wave in France, the cottage was cool and welcoming. Impeccable. Elly was always most gracious and helpful. Thank you, Ben. You've created an amazing space for people to make memories. I know we did. Simply wonderful.

Summary: You can already tell from so many previous reviews that this property. However, upon arrival it's better than expected. Modern coveniences including A/C which is not that common in the Perigord area. Location was spectacular. Elly, the manager was super accomodating. All this for a very reasonable price! Thanks Ben for sharing your amazing little country house
