Manoir de la Malartrie

Very nice

We have just returned from a fantastic week staying at Chateau de la Malartrie. The property is as beautiful as it looks in the photos. The inside is better than the photos suggest. The bedrooms are all very comfortable with great bathrooms and comfortable beds. The kitchen is very well equiped with decent equipment for cooking, we had 16 people staying and had no problems catering for this number. There are nice restaurants and shops a short walk away and canoeing on your door step. The hosts are very helpul as is the catertaker. I am sure we will come back one day.

This is a gorgeous manor house in the heart of the Dordogne Valley next to the river. The views are spectacular and the gardens are beautiful. Be sure to get the breakfast because it is a feast of local flavors. Wonderful hosts who can make excellent dining recommendations. Worth the money for a once in a lifetime experience.

What a wonderful property. The grounds were exceptional and we loved the views to the river and quick walk to the village. Such a great base to visit several “Less Plus Beaux Villages”. Our hosts were so lovely and accommodating and we sincerely appreciated meeting other guests at an aperitif party. Highly recommended for a romantic stay for a couple or a large family reunion.

This is the place to stay in the Dordogne region. Overlooking the Dordogne River, the rooms are clean, quiet and comfortable. The grounds are gorgeous, with a lovely pool and garden retreats for quiet relaxation. The owner is gracious and friendly, always available to help, make dinner reservations, or suggest places to visit. She's also an amazing cook. Her breakfasts have spoiled us forever! Five stars from start to finish, and exactly to our liking. Merci!

La Malartrie fully deserves the 5.0 rating on TripAdvisor. The location is terrific, in Vézac, but a 10 minute walk from La Roque de Cageac, one of the most beautiful villages in France, probably somewhere at the top of that official designation. The town has many restaurants. There Manoir is located at a short drive from many of the most famous sites in the Dordogne, including Lascaux, Jardin de Marqueyssac, the medieval castles of Castlenaud and Beynac-Et-Cazenac, Josehine Bakers castle Milandes, and other Plus Beaux Villages such as Domme and at. Leon sur Vezere. The Manoir is wedged between the Dordogne River and the cliff carved out by the river. The cliff causes a subtropical microclimate because of its exposure to the sun by day. The grounds of la Malartrie are gorgeous, with several terraces, flowers, large rock boulders, lounging chairs and a pool. The building is classic, with a large room for breakfast. We stayed outside of the main building, in one of the suites that has a lot of privacy, with a kitchen, living room and bedroom. The suite was elegantly furnished, clean, and overlooked the grounds and the Dordogne River. While all this is ample reason for a five star review, Wafa and her husband make a stay at the Malartrie special. No effort is too much to make guests feel comfortable and at home. The breakfast has an astonishing selection of cheeses, cakes, breads, dried and fresh fruits, cereals and eggs made to order. We looked forward to breakfast every day. If we come back to the Dordogne again, we’ll surely stay at La Malartrie again. It’s simply the best.
