A lovely property exactly as described. It is comfortable and very well equipped including leisure facilities such as a table tennis table and games to play. The hosts are amazing and it is the most excellent location for sightseeing in the DordogneDespite being a very quiet rural property, it is also very convenient for shops And other facilities. We would most definitely go back.

The gite is at a nice and quit place. Swimming pool is great. The owners are very kind and helpfull.We spend a week during the hottest week ever in that area so we make a lot use of the pool.Because of the heat we missed the airco. We highly recommend this gite to spend a nice time in a perfect equipped and clean house i a beautifull area.

What a great time we had at 'la maison girafe'. Our family (two adults, 2 kids (11 and 13) all enjoyed! The property is great and has everything you need. After visiting Germany and Rome, Dordogne and la maison girafe' were the perfect restful stop before moving on. The pool and ping pong table was a hit with the kids especially as we arrived in a heat wave. We loved having meals out back in the cozy terrace area. There are 3 chickens on the property and it was fun to spot them. The location is amazing. Can walk into the town of Carsac in 20 minutes where you can get groceries and wine. A short drive to everything in Dordogne. Our hosts were lovely and have truly created a beautidul space to live. Thanks for sharing it with us!

We had the most wonderful 10-day stay at this beautiful property in the Dordogne. Everything about our experience was perfect from start to finish. The house is immaculate, well-equipped, and truly a home away from home. The peaceful surroundings made it the perfect place to relax and unwind, while still being ideally located for exploring the stunning Dordogne region.
The hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful, ensuring our stay was as comfortable as possible. The attention to detail throughout the property—from the comfortable beds to the well-stocked kitchen—was excellent, and we had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway.
We particularly loved spending time in the outdoor spaces, whether it was enjoying our morning coffee on the terrace or relaxing in the garden with a glass of wine in the evening. The serene views of the surrounding countryside were a dream.
If you’re looking for a peaceful, relaxing, and comfortable place to stay in France, we highly recommend this property. We can’t wait to return!
