Mile upon mile of listed footpaths surround the area with walks winding through woods, along streams and taking in some magnificent views. Detailed maps of the 20 most spectacular walks in the Dordogne are available, one of which runs along the boundary of the grounds. Walkers are totally spoilt for choice with outstanding countryside in all directions. The Waters family live on site and are on hand and willing to help with any queries or assistance you may require. We are happy to arrange transport for guests to and from airports or to Sarlat or other local villages during the evening should you wish to partake of the local wine or perhaps just want to leave the car behind. |

What visitors have said about Petite Grange |
| |
| |
We spent a wonderful week in La Petite Grange with our 1 year old daughter and it was wonderful. Very restful and our daughter was made to feel very welcome with essential items provided for her. The gite was very well maintained with wonderful views whilst the garden, pool and pets provided an extra dimension to the holiday. We would definitely recommend these cottages.

If these are what you are looking for then look no further! La Petite Grange is beautifully furnished and equipped, the views from the terrace are breathtaking, the countryside is peaceful with a variety of activities on site and plenty of gentle walks for you to discover. The location is perfect for getting away from it all and visiting the many, many historic attractions of the area. If it's activity you want then there's much to offer on this front too. Chris and Kate are the perfect hosts, know the area well and are always on hand to offer advice on request. We had such a wonderful time that we're back this year....and probably into the future.
