Domaine de Lavy is a grand country estate located on the elevated slopes of Saint-Pierre-de-Côle in the Dordogne, offering sweeping views across twenty hectares of French countryside. Originally constructed in 1822 to house a general and his aide-de-camp, the estate preserves its military-inspired symmetry and stately presence, including a distinctive annex known as “the soldier’s house.”
The manor’s grandeur lies in its three-level design, high ceilings, period parquet floors, and large stone fireplaces. The estate is composed of three independent residences offering 1,120m² of living space, with 12 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms accommodating up to 26 guests (28 on request).
Weddings here benefit from complete exclusivity for three nights, with daily housekeeping, breakfast delivery, and 24/7 concierge service. Located near Brantôme, known as the “Venice of Périgord,” the venue offers proximity to cultural highlights such as the Brantôme Abbey, open-air markets, and regional delicacies including Neuvic caviar.
