THE
HOUSE AN OVERVIEW:
Our home is located in Segur-le-Chateau, a tiny village in south-west France, hidden deep in a valley. The river Auvézère meanders through Segur, hooking around the vast ramparts of a medieval chateau and its extensive park, and then heading south, where it meets the much larger Dordogne River. The streets of Segur are lined with an array of medieval houses, which reflect the village’s chief period of importance, around 500 hundred years ago, when the village housed the appellate court of the Limousine region.

Today,
Segur retains its historic charm, which is protected through the village’s
listing as one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France. During the summer
months, the town attracts many French and foreign tourists, who stroll through
the town marvelling at the buildings. There is a weekly evening market through
the months of July and August, where local farmers sell their produce.
Our
house is located in the centre of the village, less than 40 meters from the
Auvézère, which you can here softly from the bedrooms.
