You-tube: FlyOverHotel - Domaine d'Essendiéras
the domain is spacious and rural you still can have a lot of privacy.
The two castles which dominate the estate form together with the outbuildings a closed courtyard: a fantastic medieval decor where in the summer months, live music is played and where you can eat and drink at long tables.
After the restoration the original function of the buildings is kept. So you'll find the original stables, blacksmith shop, carpenter shop, the tobacco attic and so on.
Wherever you look; beautiful views and brilliant colours at any time of the year give you a lasting memory of Domaine d ' Essendiéras.
A fine environment to spend your holiday, a wedding party or to organize a seminar.
Beautifully landscaped domain with two impressive castles and a challenging 9-holes golf course in the middle of the green heart of the Dordogne.

We enjoyed our stay, although the weather could have been better. The house is lovely, and the hosts were very kind. The pool was a nice touch, although we couldn't use it as much as we hoped.
