The art of disconnection: finding calm and simplicity
In a world where everything is accelerating, it becomes essential to give your stay a particular flavor, imbued with tranquility and intimacy. Domaine de Labrousse cultivates this rare privilege: to offer its guests a true haven of peace, where silence is only disturbed by the song of birds at dawn or the rustling of leaves in the evening breeze.
The rooms, each with a private terrace, invite tranquility. The high-end bedding, refined decor, and attention to detail create a cocoon conducive to rest.

The infinity pool, nestled in greenery, extends this feeling of escape. Swimming in the heart of Périgord countryside becomes a ritual as delightful as it is soothing. Here, the hustle and bustle of large tourist complexes has no place: luxury is combined with authentic simplicity.
Staying and savoring: the table, the beating heart of the Domaine
At Domaine de Labrousse, conviviality is enjoyed as much on the plate as in the exchanges. The Table du Domaine extends the Périgourdine experience around a generous bistronomy, rhythmically influenced by the seasons and local products. In the evening, the guest table gathers a few diners in an intimate atmosphere, where Gilles' homemade cuisine, inspired by tradition, delights the most discerning palates.
At lunch, the private restaurant prioritizes exclusivity, limiting the number of covers to guarantee quality and conviviality. The carefully crafted wine list traverses the vineyards of France: each suggestion is an opportunity for discovery, subtle pairing, and meeting with local terroirs.
Those who travel with their taste buds discover at the Domaine a rare experience, where gastronomy becomes a celebration of the product, sharing, and simple pleasure. Our epicurean guests, fine connoisseurs or curious for authenticity, often reserve for the promise of an unforgettable dinner, highlighted by a wine cellar that meets expectations.
