Le Four à Sel

Le Four à Sel is a cottage located in Aubas, in the Dordogne, in the heart of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, set in a rural environment shaped by oak forests and the farmland of the Périgord Noir. The property sleeps up to 24 guests across 11 bedrooms, making it a suitable address for large groups, family gatherings, or trips with friends. The name evokes the building's history, once connected to the production or storage of salt, an activity that has left its mark on the local architecture of the region. The outdoor swimming pool lets guests make the most of the warm South-West summers without leaving the property. A barbecue area adds further options for outdoor dining directly on the grounds. Inside, a dishwasher and a washing machine ease the day-to-day logistics of longer stays with a large number of guests. Games are also available on site, extending leisure options without the need to go anywhere. Aubas is around twenty kilometres from Sarlat-la-Canéda, the gateway to the prehistoric sites of the Vézère Valley, the medieval castles, and the traditional markets of the Périgord. The villages of Montignac and Lascaux IV are reachable by car in under thirty minutes. The cottage therefore offers a central base from which to explore a region rich in heritage, while providing enough on-site amenities to ensure the group does not need to venture out every day.
