Founded by King Edward I of England in 1284, Monpazier stands as the most complete and best-preserved example of a fortified medieval village in France’s celebrated Dordogne region. Golden limestone arcades frame a perfect medieval square where time stopped, preserving Europe’s finest bastide town in amber-hued stone. Recognized as one of France’s “Most Beautiful Villages” and home to 32 listed Historic National Monuments, much of the town remains unchanged since the 1300s.
The warm, temperate climate brings pleasant conditions with summers reaching 84°F, while May, June, September, and October offer ideal temperatures for exploring grid-pattern streets filled with houses, restaurants, and terrace cafés. Every Thursday morning brings a thriving farmers market that keeps alive medieval trading traditions, while more than 22 artists and craftspeople maintain workshops open to the public. The surrounding forests provide over 124 miles of signposted hiking trails, and Bergerac Airport lies just 26 miles away for international connections.
Amidst these medieval streets, just minutes from Monpazier’s historic center, is this delightful stone cottage. The first floor features an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area with fitted appliances, plus a principal bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. Three additional double bedrooms upstairs—two with private dressing areas—are served by a family bathroom, while outbuildings include a workshop and wood store.
