Just 30 minutes from Bergerac airport, in the Périgord countryside, lies a 17th-century estate with monastic reminiscences and its 2.8-hectare park. The estate, known as Monfrouilloux since 1691, reveals itself at the end of a path marked by two ancient square pillars made of local white limestone. The driveway leads to a vast esplanade positioned prominently over the countryside, serving the various parts of the property. Three blond stone buildings, topped with tiles, form a U-shaped layout around a French garden, while the outbuildings organize around the periphery. This arrangement recalls that of an old agricultural enclosure, where each building retained a specific function, between residence, service, and work. From the esplanade, the gaze extends over a countryside alternately open and wooded. The tranquility of the place, the arrangement of the buildings, and the presence of a stone calvary dated 1835 recall the memory of a monastic tradition, which may have marked the area in ancient times. In the garden, trimmed shrubs and judiciously arranged plants create regular perspectives and border paths lined with small pebbles. The rigor of this composition is softened by the foliage and the patina of the facades. Beyond the main residence, the property extends towards a pool with a pool house and a kitchen garden, all brought together in an enclosed space sheltered from prying eyes. One of the outbuildings houses the caretaker's house and a large workshop. All around, a mixed hardwood forest spreads out, where oaks, chestnut trees, and firs create a deep canopy. A few trees, likely centenarians, tower over the underbrush and accompany the edges.
