About this property

Exquisite Farmhouse & Heated Pool

'A little bit of Provence without the crowds' is how one visitor has described this beautiful 17th century farmhouse, which was once a walnut farm. It has been tastefully restored - there are two large fireplaces - one in the salon and other in the kitchen. The mature garden has some fine trees and wonderful views across the Dordogne countryside. There are terraces all around the house which catch the sunshine all day long. The pigeonnier pool house overlooks the secluded terrace around the pool which is extremely lovely.
There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment. The bathroom features a bathtub, a bidet, and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a phone, as well as an electric kettle and a washing machine.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Stunning house, perfect holiday.
Quite simply the most beautiful house I've ever stayed in during my 33 years of visiting the Dordogne. It's like something from a novel in terms of serenity and decor. Michael and Sheila were perfect hosts and very generous. If I could give it 6 stars, I would. Hugo, Lara & four little ones. X

Family Holiday
Hosts were very helpful and informative, a genuinely lovely couple. Stayed in the area due to a family wedding. Car rental essential especially to take advantage of the markets, bakeries and restaurants in the area and ease of travel from airport. Michael was always on hand with recommendations.

Beautiful French Farmhouse - perfect holiday
We had an amazing holiday at La Roussie – it was absolutely perfect! The house has been beautifully renovated over many years and is incredibly well furnished and equipped. Sheila and Michael had thought of everything including a beautiful pool, plenty of shade for those who needed it and several places to eat, depending on the time of day. We particularly liked breakfast on the patio with the lovely views, lazing with a book under the Bali hut and enjoying a glass of wine in the shade by the pool… We visited lots of interesting places including Brantome (canoeing), Perigeaux (shopping), Bourdeilles (architecture and castle), Aubeterre (underground church) and Bordeaux. Sheila and Michael were the perfect hosts, so kind and thoughtful. They also helped organise a caterer (Louise) to cook a fabulous birthday meal one evening and Michael was on hand to provide expert wine advice! Thank you again for letting us spend time in La Roussie – we will definitely return.

A holiday home to create the best memories
How we love a road trip through France, especially with a villa holiday at the end of it. This one had been planned for about 3 months, so plenty of time to build the anticipation. La Roussie ticked all of the boxes: pool, barbecue, authentic French architecture and attractive decor, without be too ‘rustic’. Michael and Sheila are great hosts and were on hand to make our arrival and access easy, with a warm and friendly welcome. The villa has a very well equipped kitchen, leading out to an al fresco dining area by the pool. We liked that there were several outside dining spaces, including a covered one for any weather. There is also a sizeable but cozy dining table in the kitchen if the weather is too inclement. Michael and Sheila live in the neighbouring property so were on hand if we needed anything but the villa and pool were otherwise private and secluded enough that we were able to enjoy our own space. The layout of the bedrooms would probably best suit two couples with children but we were spoilt just the two of us. Be prepared to drive anywhere for supplies or dining out, as there is not much in Lusignac itself but most neighbouring towns were within 10 mins and had pretty much everything. Lusignac does have a small cafe/restaurant but we never found it open. Do follow Michael and Sheila’s recommendations (on anything), they always turned out to be excellent!! We fell in love with the little artisan Boulangerie in Bertric-Burée, a 5 min drive away. All french Boulangeries are good but this was something else. Do like the french and hit it up every morning for croissants and your daily baguette. We loved our stay at la Roussie and cannot wait to return. Thank you for giving us such wonderful memories. Susana and Oliver

La Roussie is a beautiful property in a lovely rural setting. The house is lovely, the garden beautiful and a fabulous pool. The hosts where extremely welcoming, and gave us lots of great local tips. Perfect base to discover a new part of france

The perfect place to unwind
Thank you Sheila & Michael, we all had a great stay in your beautiful farmhouse - it is so well designed and equipped, you've thought of everything. It was perfectly located for lots of walking and cycling through rural France and it was handy to have La Licorne (the small bar/restaurant) withing walking distance. We were amazed how much was going on in this seemingly sleepy corner of France - we enjoyed a performance of The Marriage of Figaro, a violin duet in the church, an exhibition from a local artist and more. We definitely hope to return!

Peace and tranquillity
I don't think the pictures of this property really do it justice. As a group of six adults we found this property to be absolutely charming. Full of French rustic character the property was large enough to allow each their own space if they needed it. The large kitchen had more than enough utensils, plates, cutlery etc and a large American style fridge freezer is just what was needed (the separate beer fridge is a good addition as well!) Plenty of outdoor eating areas - breakfast on the terrace - lunch under the vines and evening meal by the pool. Bedrooms are large and the beds comfortable so again no complaints there. The location is very, very rural and you are more likely to be woken by a bird signing rather than a car going past. For the athletes who may visit there is a circular 5k run that can be done with a couple of hills to overcome. Nearest large supermarket is in Riberac, about a 10-15 minute drive away although there is a small Spar in the next village. The Friday market in Riberac is really good and worth a visit as are a number of other local towns and villages. All in all a really enjoyable stay in an excellent property. We were well looked after by Shelia and Michael who were generous in their advices. Thank you.

First impressions good , but after staying a week you notice how tired the property was , it's a lovely building with stunning pool area but it all needs some tlc, and to be honest we were disappointed , still had a lovely stay in France .

Super séjour dans une belle propriété
Nous avons passé une excellente semaine à la roussie, la maison est conforme voire mieux que les photos ne l'illustrent, très bien décorée et équipée, et le jardin et la piscine sont spacieux et parfaitement entretenus. Les hôtes sont charmants et ont à coeur le bien-être de leurs locataires!!
