If your dream holiday house in France is one within easy walking distance of the boulangerie yet a haven of peace, then this imposing 18th century mansion, situated in the centre of the little town of Riberac, is for you. The walled garden is safe for children and the proximity to local entertainment means you do not have to run a teenage taxi service or take turns to drive at night, giving you the makings of real fun and relaxation for all. The main entrance is through double front doors into a large chandelier-lit, tiled hall with the main reception rooms to right and left. Through the back there is a courtyard, and beyond this is the heated pool and a long terrace with electric awning. From this the garden creeps up a small hillside giving superb views over the town and countryside providing glorious tranquillity for adults and a safe adventure playground for the young. By contrast the Friday market and main square, with restaurants and bars, and the high street are all a short walk
