About this property

In the heart of Perigord Vert in the Dordogne, lies the magnificent 19th Century Chateau Le Duc and adjacent annexe. Built in 1840, it has recently been refurbished to the highest standard of luxury. Each room has been carefully decorated with traditional colours and wallpaper from Farrow and Ball, and furnished with antiques and works of art. All bathrooms are of the highest standard, using brands such as Lefroy Brooks and Sottini and bed linen and towels from Frette. There are 16 bedrooms across both the Chateau and the adjacent annexe for up to 34 guests.

 

Chateau Le Duc is set in 12 acres of beautifully kept gardens, complete with fruit orchards, a swimming pool and badminton court. Breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner can be taken on the terrace overlooking the picturesque local village, or alternatively a candle lit dinner can be enjoyed in the dining room.

An historic landmark in French history, the chateau was once the palatial home of a duke who served under Napoleon and it was given to him as a token of his appreciation for his dedication to France. His influence on French history is evident in the numerous statues and landmarks named after him in France.

Good news! For a little extra, this property can be booked as a Vill’otel

Yey! Wait… what is that?

It’s the perfect combo of the privacy of your own personal villa, with all the luxury and convenience of a hotel.

    We cannot recommend Chateau Le Duc enough, the chateau was our perfect wedding venue, beautifully decorated with perfectly kept grounds. It has everything you could possibly need and want. An amazing place to celebrate special occasions with your nearest and dearest. With plenty of bedrooms and space for people to escape too. The pool is amazing and in the beautiful Dordogne heat its so refreshing. The owners and staff i can honestly say are some of the nicest people I have met nothing is a problem. Would love to be back here someday again, I'm trying to convince all my friends to get married here so we have an excuse otherwise we shall have an anniversary party/holiday here in the future. Honestly can't express how wonderful our week was at the chateau. For people considering booking it go for it you won't be disappointed in fact you'll be overwhelmed at its charm and beauty.

    There is plenty of room here for a large party to spread out, with large formal areas, cosy corners and a great deal of outdoor space. Much of the interior is suitably splendid.
