COSTA DEL PORTE : Maison de charme au coeur du village classé de Beynac avec vue - Three-Bedroom House

This property has qualities often obscured by deficiencies.There are three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and a kitchen. Each is nicely appointed but the organization is difficult. There is no air conditioner/The house is medieval with an exceptional location and wonderful views of the Dordogne valley. Rooms are distributed on 4 floors with inconvenient distribution:a bedroom on the lower level requires climbing for each bathroom or toilet use, a second bedroom is on the next level with a shower and a toilet, nicely appointed living room and kitchen on the 3rd level, another bedroom and a shower/toilet arrangement on the 4th level. Here are a few problems:- the entry is at the level of the living/kitchen. The property manager indicates one can drive the car to the property, drop the luggage, turn and leave the car in one of the town's parking spaces. This is not easy to do if your car is larger than a tricycle.- daily trips by foot from the nearest parking to the property is a 10 min trip mostly on a steep road not easy even for full mobility people.- a TV is shown in one of the bedrooms, but it is not connected to anything. Not acceptable if more than one person occupies this 3-bedroom property.- the temperature stratifies in this narrow and tall house. During summertime upper bedroom is not usable and even the living room gets quite hot.

We had a wonderful stay! The house was very charming and had everything we needed. The communication with the host was good and the location is excellent!! We highly recommend it!

Everything inside the accommodation was very good, however, the upstairs bathroom had a terrible sewer odour, the left sink water overflow drained into the drawer underneath and the right hand sink did not drain properly. The shower door did not close sufficiently to prevent the water from flowing onto the bathroom floor. The kitchen was very well equipped and visitors had to rely on Nespresso as there was no drip coffeemaker. The mattresses and pillows were not up to four star standard in either bedrooom. The third bedroom was not occupied. The house itself was located on the side of the cliff with the Beynac Castle directly above. The road to the house is the width of one car, uphill, limited if any turnaround area, requires parking in a parking lot a long way away from the accommodation. It is not for those who have any issues with walking up hills on cobblestones carrying luggage or groceries or packages. We were four seniors and this method of reaching the accommodation is not for those with any mobility issues of any kind. The Beynac et Cazenac area is beautiful. We watched from our windows hot air balloons over the Dordogne River, beautiful castles and kayakers. It was our base for a week and we travelled many miles and visited most of the tourist sites that were recommended. We wish we had more time to explore, it is one of the most beautiful areas of France.

It is a beautiful house and village. It is conveniently located to many interesting places.

Beautiful property. Challenging car access, so rent a small car. Worth the extra effort, though, as the house is beautiful, functions well and has a spectacular view from every river-facing window.

Everything that the write-up says is true! And the village it's located in is stunning as well.
