Built during the 14th century, the Château de Monsac is situated between Bergerac and Sarlat in the heart of 'bastide country'.

The history of the château merges with that of the region: English, French, Hugenots, Catholics, revolutionaries and royalists have all, at one moment or another, battled for their cause around the château.

A young couple have recently bought the fourteen-hectare property which today provides accommodation for visitors.
