Philippe de Fitte
Villegiatures Manager
During a long and successful international professional career, my family and I have moved more than a dozen times between France, Spain, Switzerland, the United States and the Middle East, including the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Sultanate of Oman...
Our four children were born in Barcelona and Zurich, and we have lived in more than twenty residences in 35 years.
Despite (or thanks to) this great diversity of cultures and environments, France and its heritage have been the roots that have allowed our family tree to grow harmoniously.
In particular, our family project has crystallized around our castle of Montastruc, in the Périgord region, a thousand-year-old historical monument taken over by us in 1998 and which has since become a large family home, a place of gathering and sharing, now also available for exclusive seasonal rental...
I often say that to undertake such a project, you have to check at least 3 boxes: be crazy, be passionate, and be an incorrigible optimist. You probably need many other characteristics and a certain discernment. But our family can certainly testify to the extraordinary gift that Montastruc offers us in return for our efforts.
It is indeed with an unfailing passion, mixed with reason, a bit of luck and a very great determination, that we have accomplished this great restoration project up to now. I am pleased to be able to offer my support and advice to heritage enthusiasts in search of a historic, authentic and unusual place to live, a modern-day resort anchored on immemorial cultural foundations.
