Once upon a time... there was an ancient chapel and 11th century priory that were tastefully restored and transformed into a beautiful stone house in the land of the bastides, at Beaumont-du-Périgord to be precise. Here, a charmingly elegant guest room awaits you.(Photo credit:Coteau de Belpech)
 

The weekend starts on Friday evening with a light, healthy dinner. The following day is free for you to enjoy a session in the sauna or jacuzzi, followed by a massage.
 

Outside, 4 hectares of woods and fields are available for walks, or if you take a trip in the car, you can visit the bastide town of Monpazier, where 800 years of history are displayed.
 

Alternatively, why not take a tour of the Bergerac Wine Route, stopping off at a local market to purchase some regional specialities: foie gras, ceps, nuts, truffles...
 

In the evening, you will share a candlelit dinner accompanied by a glass of champagne.
 

On Sunday 14th February, don’t forget it’s Valentines Day! The weekend finishes at the end of the morning after enjoying brunch, but if you really want to push the boat out, you can discover the bastide town of Beaumont-du-Périgord by horse-drawn carriage for an additional fee (50 €).  
 

Price: 450 € for two people, including 2 nights’ accommodation (double room with breakfast included), a light dinner on the night of arrival, a gourmet candlelit dinner on Saturday and a sauna or jacuzzi session accompanied by a massage.  
 

The plus factor: if you want to offer this gift to your loved one, get in touch with the owners of the establishment, Isabelle and Alain, who will more than happy to send a weekend invitation addressed "To my dearly beloved" to your special person of choice.
