L'Ancien Couvent Bed and breakfast in Cahuzac

DISCOVER THE ANCIENT CONVENT IN CAHUZAC, IN LOT-ET-GARONNE, NEAR THE SOUTH OF PériGORD

A heritage steeped in history

Located in the picturesque village of Cahuzac, witness to the Hundred Years' War, the Ancien Convent is a 16th century building which was formerly the governor's hotel of the Château de Cahuzac. Transformed in the 19th and 20th centuries into the convent of the Sainte Marthe de Périgueux sisters, this unique place today offers a stay experience combining history, calm and charm.

A period staircase and rooms with evocative names

The round tower at the rear of the convent, a vestige of the medieval ramparts, today serves as a staircase to access the guest rooms. These four rooms, called Orchid, Camélia, Iris and Magnolia, offer exceptional spaces of 40 to 50 m² . Equipped with beautifully weathered beams and contemporary bathrooms, they ensure a comfortable and warm stay.
