Completely surrounded by woods and a stream, amidst the unrivaled beauty of the French Dordogne, lies the luxury holiday home Fontalbe. The owners Rebecca and Greg have lovingly restored this old dilapidated paper factory and turned it into a fantastic accommodation for 12 people, perfect for a large family or group of friends who want to enjoy comfort and tranquility. Hidden behind the historic façade you will find a light, spacious and modern design, designed by the Dutch architect Joris van Grinsven. The décor combines traditional elements with design furniture, tight cement floors and natural materials in a rural chic atmosphere. The contemporary decor in subdued shades of gray below and the stylish bright rooms above, enrich the modernity of this house in contrast to its rural surroundings.
Fontalbe has five ensuite bedrooms with hotel quality beds and Egyptian cotton bed linen. In addition, an individual apartment in the house can accommodate two people, perfect for guests who want extra privacy during their stay.
The robust concrete kitchen is equipped with all modern appliances and while preparing dinner, others can enjoy a drink at the bar. The living room is very spacious with four large sofas to get together with each other. The white beamed ceiling creates a nice contrast with the gray cement floor, wooden side table and beautiful decorations.
In the garden of 14 hectares lies the large (10x12m) heated private pool. Children are very welcome, they can go on an adventure in the garden and have fun in the swimming pool, on the swing and with the table tennis table while you'll enjoy the peace and quiet.
The house has fine and luxurious facilities for an ultimate holiday: large outdoor kitchen, many terraces, bluetooth speaker, table tennis, hamman towels, Honest Skincare moisturizer, bodywash, shampoo and conditioner.
