We are Alec and Bev and our story began in 2018 when we decided to fulfill a lifelong dream to move to warmer and sunnier climes. We had recently retired and wanted to stop the 9-5 grind. We love the outdoors and big open skies, and so wanted somewhere rural. Our love of French cuisine, warm weather and of course fine wine led us to SW France, but we did not know exactly where we would end up.
After a year long search for the right place, we found our forever home in the Perigord Noir, famous for its black truffles and prehistoric Lascaux Caves. It ticked all our boxes but needed quite a bit of renovation to make it perfect for us – a tranquil and rustic place which could be both our home and our business. Covid-19 delayed our opening, but we used this time to carry out much needed renovations, like adding an outdoor kitchen/cabana, extending the pool area and adding a communal courtyard with a fire pit. Much more is to come and the work continues. Our ultimate goal was to share our little piece of paradise with our family, friends and guests so we look forward to welcoming you to Maison Des Coeurs.
We love it here, and hope you will too.
