Maison de Maitre +petite maison Perigourdine for 12 people in the causse

We had a wonderful stay in this rustic house with a fantastic pool. The hosts were brilliant and sorted any problems with speed. The surrounding area is charming and full of beautiful towns and attractions.

We had a nice holiday after the first couple of days sorting out missing items, some grimey kitchen stuff & dirty outdoor furniture (spiders nests under outdoor table). Lovely pool (hole in one corner of liner covered by duct tape) & garden with lots of trees providing shady areas. Beware screws sticking up in decking, loose tiles & rickety gate. Garden needed work as lots of dead plants. Double room in cottage very dirty & full of spiders & webs. Requested them to clean that room after the first night, which they did. Missing parasols (provided after request) No fans in bedrooms (provided after request). Kitchen stocked well of most items needed but only 3 dinner knives (more provided after request). BBQ was disgusting, we bought grills to cook on. Shutters & windows of bedrooms could be opened but sound of ripping spider webs put one off doing this. In between windows and shutters has not been cleaned for years! Only 1 shower cubicle in attic. 1 hand shower (no screen or curtain) in bath on 1st floor. 1 shower over bath with screen in small cottage. Overall a lot of maintenance & thorough cleaning required. It's in the country so insects expected but what we found was unacceptable! As we were leaving the owners told us we had to clean or pay them 150 to do this. No mention of this in details or on arrival. Owners got very unpleasant when we disagreed. Description of house is misleading. Not waterfront, no a/c except 2 x portable units in attic. Overall a shame really.
