    • CASTELWOOD, VILLAGE OF LODGES AND SAFARI TENTS, IN THE HEART OF THE BIRON FOREST, IN THE PURPLE PERIGORD

      A haven of peace in the heart of nature

      Castelwood is an estate located in Biron, in the heart of the Périgord Pourpre, and in the immediate vicinity of Lot-et-Garonne. Nestled in the middle of a dense forest, this village of gîtes offers an ideal setting for those looking to recharge their batteries in contact with nature. Castelwood stands out for its commitment to ecological and sustainable tourism. Each accommodation has been designed to blend harmoniously into the environment, limiting the impact on local flora and fauna. Whether for a stay as a couple, with family or friends, Castelwood offers a variety of accommodations that meet all desires for a change of scenery.

      Varied and comfortable accommodation

      Castelwood offers several types of accommodation that allow you to fully enjoy nature while enjoying optimal comfort. Among these accommodations, the wooden chalets are particularly popular. Designed to accommodate 4 to 6 people, these chalets offer a warm and well-equipped living space. Each chalet has a modern, fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and oven, a private terrace where you can enjoy meals outdoors, and comfortable bedrooms, ideal for resting after a day of exploring. The surrounding natural setting and the immediate proximity of the forest create a peaceful atmosphere, conducive to relaxation and rejuvenation.

      Castelwood 's safari tents offer a unique experience, combining adventure and comfort. Perched several meters above the ground, they allow you to fully immerse yourself in nature while enjoying spacious and well-appointed accommodation. The tents feature real beds, private bathrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen. With their canvas walls, they allow you to listen to the sounds of the forest and feel at one with the natural environment. These tents can accommodate up to 6 people, making them an ideal option for families or groups of friends looking for an unusual and exotic stay.

      For those looking for a little more luxury and comfort, Castelwood also offers high-end lodges with private spas. These accommodations, designed for 4 people, are perfect for a stay in complete privacy, offering an ideal setting to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. The lodges have a large terrace and a private garden, guaranteeing absolute tranquility and no overlooked views. The private spa is the major asset of these lodges, allowing you to relax at 36°C under the stars, for a unique and revitalizing relaxing experience.

      A strong ecological commitment

      One of the most remarkable aspects of Castelwood is its commitment to ecology and environmental preservation. The accommodations are designed with sustainable materials, and the entire estate is designed to limit its impact on the surrounding nature. The chalets and tents are made from responsibly sourced wood, and each infrastructure is designed to blend into the landscape without disturbing the ecological balance of the region.

      Castelwood 's environmentally friendly practices are reflected in every aspect of the estate's management. Taps and showers are equipped with water-saving devices, and guests are encouraged to recycle their waste and adopt environmentally friendly practices during their stay. This respect for nature is also reflected in the estate's layout, where local wildlife, such as squirrels and birds, are preserved and protected. This eco-friendly approach allows visitors to enjoy a sustainable tourism experience, while also contributing to the preservation of local biodiversity.

      Activities for all tastes

      Castelwood doesn't just offer quality accommodation; the estate also offers a range of activities to enhance its visitors' stay. From the opening of the season in early April, the heated swimming pool is available to holidaymakers. Covered by a retractable dome, the pool allows swimming whatever the weather, providing a relaxing moment enjoyed by young and old alike. When the weather permits, the dome is removed, transforming the pool into an open space where you can enjoy the sun and fresh air.

      In addition to the swimming pool, Castelwood offers its guests a barbecue area, a pétanque court, and play areas for children, such as a ping-pong table and table football. These facilities allow you to spend pleasant moments with family or friends, in a natural and peaceful setting.

      Discover the treasures of the Périgord Pourpre and Lot-et-Garonne

      The Castelwood estate is ideally located for exploring the riches of the Périgord Pourpre and Lot-et-Garonne. Less than 30 km from Biron, numerous activities and places of interest await visitors. Hiking enthusiasts can explore the marked trails that cross the forests, valleys and limestone plateaus of the region, offering spectacular panoramic views.

      Biron Castle, a listed historical monument, is one of the jewels of local heritage. It stands proudly above the forest and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding area. This medieval castle is a must-see for history and architecture lovers, who can explore its richly decorated rooms and gardens.

      Local markets, such as those in Monpazier and Villeréal, are also not to be missed. They offer the chance to taste local products, such as truffles, foie gras, and Bergerac wines. These markets are also an opportunity to meet local producers, who passionately share their expertise and products. For an even more complete immersion in Périgord gastronomy, visitors can visit the region's small producers, who offer tastings and tours of their farms.

      For those who prefer outdoor activities, the region also offers opportunities for canoeing on the Dordogne or the Lot, mountain biking trails, and horse riding. The varied landscapes and natural wealth of the region make the Périgord Pourpre an ideal playground for lovers of the outdoors and discovery.

      By staying at Castelwood, visitors have the opportunity to experience a relaxing and enriching holiday, in a preserved natural setting and in contact with a region with an exceptional cultural and gastronomic heritage. This estate is the perfect place to discover the charms of the Périgord Pourpre while enjoying comfortable and environmentally friendly accommodation.

    We spent 3 nights at Castelwood with a friend in early October. The stay was wonderful. The location is very pleasant, in a beautiful region and near a very pretty village with its castle (Biron). The staff is very friendly and always available. This stay was very relaxing, perfectly meeting our expectations. I will come back with great pleasure.
