Cottage in the heart of Périgord near Brantôme, Angoulême, Périgueux

A beautiful property situated in a quiet rural area. We were met by Marc and Pascale on arrival who answered questions and gave advice. Facilities within the gite were perfect for our needs as a family of nine.

Très bien

Bon rapport qualité prix. Prestations impeccables. Contact un peu distanciée avec les propriétaires.

Although a little difficult to find, this is a beautiful and peaceful house. The pool is large and worked really well for us, we were 4 adults and 4 children aged between 4-9. Plenty of garden space for the kids to run around and a lovely BBQ area. A couple of disappointments, firstly I must point out that some of the pictures online are not that accurate or at least for us. The main picture looking back at the house from the pool you will see a door opposite the pool with wooden shutters, this is not part of the house that belongs to you but the owners, they don't use this entrance but you could be lead to believe by the promo pictures that this is your entrance / exit and how lovely it is to have a door opening onto the pool area but this is not the case, when we arrived and met the owners, we were told that the AC was not working. luckily the temp had dropped to around 28 for the 2 weeks we stayed but on a couple of nights it was very hot and uncomfortable. Secondly, the lights in the swimming pool were not working. The pictures to promote the house show a beautifully lit up pool at night and we all hoped to enjoy swimming in the late evening which we still managed but it wasn't as nice as we would have hoped. Also there was damage to the first step into the pool and the owners had put 2 plastic chairs at each end of the step (in the water) and we were asked not to remove them, again the pictures of our younger kids sitting on these steps and playing as they have always done in these situations was the same picture as we would have hoped, Overall, a great stay but these few points were disappointing, and we had no word from Vrbo beforehand letting us know. Marc & Pascale are lovely hosts on hand if you need them.
