There is a large terrace on one side of the house and an enclosed garden on the other side leading to a hectare (two acres) of grounds with open grassy areas and mature trees. The property is surrounded by local farms and vineyards and has a panoramic view over the district.
The living room has a large stone fireplace, a sofa and comfortable lounge chairs, with a sound system and a television with a DVD player which receives English-language satellite channels.
A covered terrace off the kitchen has a barbecue and dining table. There is also a dining setting near the pigeonnier under the shade of a spreading tree.
Upstairs is another double bedroom, and a bedroom with two single beds under the sloping roof. All rooms get plenty of natural light. Beneath the house is a traditional French cave or wine cellar.

A little further is a restaurant and bar at Saint-Germain-du-Salombre and the town of Saint-Astier with many restaurants, a cinema, a large supermarket, banks and other amenities.
A forest adjoins La Martiniere on one side of the property with peaceful and scenic walking and cycling tracks.
Within 40 minutes of the property is the town of Brantôme, locally known as the Venice of the Dordogne, featuring many cultural and historical sights and activities. Brantome's market is every Friday. Visitors of all ages enjoy canoeing the calm waters of the river Dronne.
Also worth exploring are prehistoric caves close by, the Bergerac wine region, and the old town of Périgueux. It boasts historic architecture and major Roman ruins including an amphitheatre and the storied Domus of Vesunna, an ancient manor house.
