About this country house rental
The farmhouse has been modernised to a high standard to make it comfortable for guests whilst maintaining its original character. It sits adjacent to the owners' main house, a converted barn. It benefits from a modern fitted kitchen, log burner, satellite TV, DVD and Wi-Fi. Both bathrooms have baths, heated towel rails and the one downstairs has a thermostatically controlled shower. There is private parking for 2 cars adjacent to the cottage. Guests have their own entrance through the garden behind the cottage, where there is a patio with tables and chairs, a BBQ and loungers, umbrellas and outdoor sofa for comfortable alfresco living and dining. Included is the use of the owners’ pool which has lovely views and a large terrace with sun beds and umbrellas. The cottage benefits from facing east to make the most of the morning and evening sun, while keeping it cool through the day. With Summers becoming warmer there are also fans available if needed and an efficient mobile air conditioner upstairs. The farmhouse is the perfect starting point for walks or cycle trips through the quiet local lanes to nearby medieval villages. Sainte-Sabine, only a few minutes away by car, has a bakery, post-office and several restaurants, including La Gentilhommière. The cottage is ideally situated for those wanting to enjoy the beauty of the French countryside while being within driving distance of the Dordogne and Vézère valleys, where you can see everything from splendid chateaux to the world-famous cave paintings at Lascaux. For the more energetic, there is kayaking on the Dordogne which we can highly recommend! The wine tours of Bergerac and the town itself (30 minutes away) are well worth a visit as are the local Bastide villages with their shops, restaurants, bars and wonderful weekly markets and summer food festivals.
Bordeaux and Toulouse are both within a 2 hour car journey.
A welcome pack will be made available with all you need for your first night's stay here, complete with a bottle of fizz.

We’ve just come back from an amazing stay. The farmhouse is full of character and well equipped with everything we needed. The pool area is beautiful with a fantastic view of the surrounding countryside and gardens. Our host Tanya was so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us, thankyou Tanya. A real home from home. A generous starter hamper was a welcome surprise when we got there. All in all a very enjoyable holiday and a place that we are looking forward to going back to.

Tanya was a charming, responsive and supportive host. The little farmhouse is just adjacent to Tanya’s main house, with a private west-facing garden, complete with patio furniture and BBQ.
The space consists of an open-plan kitchen / dining / living room space which is spacious enough for 5 people to eat comfortably.
The house does get super hot upstairs, even downstairs in the summer months - I recommend closing all the shutters in the house by mid-day, and airing the house out every morning. Tanya provides fans and an AC unit upstairs which makes a bit of a difference.
The pool was a welcome relief against the hot temperature, and we were given the use of it during the day. Just an FYI it is behind the main house, a short stroll from the gite.
The WiFi is shared with the main house and was quite slow at times, especially when it was being used by the family. Tanya also offers DVDs, basic free British satellite TV and French satellite TV.
We had a great stay in the Sud Ouest revisiting old haunts and reconnecting with old friends. The location was ideal for this, 10 minutes from Villereal.
