ITINERARIES
Five itineraries to turn five nights into the trip you will still be talking about next year.
Five itineraries
Your week, your way
Each itinerary is self-guided, with full notes, recommendations, and introductions to local contacts arranged in advance. Choose one theme for the week, or follow different itineraries on different days. The five are a starting point, not a syllabus.
The Périgord's relationship with art runs deeper than most. The caves of Lascaux & Villars are the obvious starting points: 17,000 years of humans capturing their environment. But the living tradition is just as compelling. Easels, canvases, and acrylic & watercolour supplies are available at the château for mornings spent painting in the grounds or along the river. We keep an eye on local vernissages and gallery openings throughout the season and will point you toward whatever is on during your week.
THE ROOMS
Five Bedrooms
A 500-year-old château in the Périgord Vert, taken entirely for your group.
Room 1: King bed with full en-suite bathroom
Rooms 2 & 3: King bed with en-suite shower · shared WC
Rooms 4 & 5: Double bed(s) with shared separate full bathroom
Each room accommodates two guests. All linen, towels, and breakfast are included.
DINING
Table d'hôtes, on your terms
Dinner at Manor & Maker is built around a single long table: one menu, eaten together as the light goes off the garden. For The Château Set, you decide how many evenings take that shape. Nights can be hosted by Stephen and Sara, or by arrangement with a professional personal chef, or invite our Le Cordon Bleu-trained partners in from Paris for the week. Table d'hôtes menus draw on whatever the markets and the season offer. On other evenings, we will point you toward the restaurants in the area that are worth the visit. In-house guided wine tastings can be arranged for any evening of the week.

Rooms are priced at the chambre d'hôtes rate of €150 per night, breakfast included. A private hire supplement of €1,000 applies for exclusive use of the château, whatever the size of your group or the length of your stay.

Five nights across five rooms, the shape most groups choose, comes to €4,750 in total. Shorter stays, smaller groups, and additional guests are all worth a conversation.
