La Barde - Montfort - Bed and Breakfast in Montfort, France


La Barde - Montfort is in the little hamlet of Montfort, overlooked by the Château de Montfort, minutes from the River Dordogne and in the heart of the Périgord Noir. At only 4 kilometres from the renowned medieval town of Sarlat, this bed and breakfast is perfectly located for all the major sites of the Dordogne Valley, yet in a tranquil location.

Numerous châteaux, spectacular villages and historic sites will compete for your time with outdoor activities such as walking, horse-riding, canoeing, fishing, golf and more besides.

Alternatively just sit back, relax and enjoy the view of the Château de Montfort from the b&b's gardens and swimming pool.

La Barde offers four double/ triple bedrooms and a family suite of two bedrooms with two shower-rooms. All rooms are individual; they are stylishly furnished and decorated to a high standard, with luxury ensuite facilities. Each bedroom has television and is refreshed daily. Private access to all rooms allows guests to come and go as they please. Each bedroom also has its own seating area outside, with views of the Château. All of the rooms are on the ground floor and one is specifically designed for those less able-bodied, with wheelchair access throughout the bedroom and shower-room.

The innkeepers can prepare picnic lunches by request and dinner is available by reservation on occasion. The pool has poolside furniture and is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the sunshine and views. The garden has swings for the children, a table-tennis table, badminton and boules. There is a guest BBQ area, with views of the Château and a guest fridge available for your drinks.
