Le Jaonnet - A special Country Guest House in the Dordogne

Le Jaonnet is situated in the small farming hamlet of Liaubou-Bas, which nestles in the lovely wooded Périgord countryside, and is set between the medieval towns of Sarlat, Domme and Gourdon. A tranquil spot, yet easy to reach and not far from any of the wonderful châteaux and prehistoric caves which are to be found in this fascinating area.
   

 

Le Jaonnet was originally built as a hay-barn in the early 1800s. After a series of additions it was converted to a farmhouse in 1907. In the late 1980s the farmhouse and adjoining stables were partially converted by a Parisian architect into two separate properties. The house boasts a colourful country garden with splendid rural views and plenty of shade.

 

   
We bought the original farmhouse in 1992, re-named it "Le Jaonnet" after our favourite bay in Guernsey in the Channel Islands, and have undertaken extensive upgrading and improvements to all of our facilities in order to make Le Jaonnet into our comfortable home, where we welcome guests from all over the world, in the traditional French style of "chambres d'hôtes". We have now installed full air-conditioning into our three upstairs bedrooms.
