At the gates of Périgord, magnificent stone house, calm and relaxing.

Gorgeous house, fabulous location, loads to keep us entertained and a wonderful welcome from our hostess, Christine. We would thoroughly recommend.

I have to say the photos while great don't do this property justice, the house itself is simply gorgeous, to the point that one day I hope to own a house like this. The kitchen is well equipped, the lounge with the huge fire place and high ceilings is excellent, the pool table good fun, there is even a whirlpool bath for a bit of extra indulgence. Outside the two terrace were great, breakfast on the smaller overlooking the heated pool, evenings on the large terrac with a glass of wine, perfect. Locally there is plenty to see, with the bastide towns being lovely attractions, and good eating out opportunities, there are nice and interesting chateau only a short drive away. A good location of a relaxing but interesting stay.

Had a lovely 2 weeks at the property and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. As you drive up to the house it has the instant wow factor, However, after a very short time you see the effects where the house is tired. For example, wall paper peeling off in quite a few rooms, shower head not fitting in the shower holder, but worst of all was the area around the pool where grouting was missing. Where the grout was missing this attracted wasps due to the water in it it, which resulted in a number of stings being received, and could have been prevented by re-grouting. Slabs were broken and loose including those on the side of the pool which could be dangerous to children. An electrical junction box was raised and broken which could cause a foot injury. By the back door is a large tree which, although beautiful, needs to be trimmed at least, as this harbours an area where the flies enjoy staying under which is your seating area. Aside from the above, we all had a lovely time and enjoyed the peace and tranquility of a lovely property.

The property was as expected and well equipped with lots of room for 8 people. The land attached was spacious, but unusable due to number of flies, as the property was mainly woodland (this will stop us from going back to the property). The pool was good as were the facilities,but I must admit that the property would benefit from air conditioning, as bedrooms were hot at night. We were a little concerned that for the price we paid, we were asked on the day before leaving to either clean the property or 100 euros to have the house cleaned on leaving.. We will elected to clean the property, as we are used to keeping our homes clean anyway
