An established rental business with a guaranteed income, our property is situated at the end of an isolated track with no immediate neighbours or passing traffic but is still within close proximity to all services, shops, markets, restaurants and the many and varied local attractions. Stunning historic Bastide (fortified) towns such as Sarlat, Monpazier, Domme and Rocamadour are close by and the numerous chateaux and the fascinating towns and villages of this most fascinating region will not disappoint you. The Dordogne attracts millions of visitors each year, is steeped in history, stunningly beautiful, essentially rural and lives life at a gentle pace. Our nearest town, Les Eyzies de Tayac, is the world centre for pre-history and the surrounding caves hold the greatest concentration of pre-historic art on the planet. The property is currently organised into a high-quality gite complex with the owner's house located within its own grounds giving privacy, but allowing easy contact with guests when required. The three self-catering gites are fully booking during summer months and provide a good rental income. Purchasers could expect to improve on the current rental income if they wished to extend the rental season. The property is flexible and a new owner might choose to reorganise the existing arrangements and occupy a different house, freeing the current owner's house for rental purposes.
