The house gave us everything we needed for a wonderful, relaxing family holiday. Everything was immaculately clean, with lots of space inside and out. The pool was great for games, it was deeper in the middle and shallower on the edges. The garden and pool had lots of natural shade, which was definitely needed on the hotter days. Monflanquin is a lovely town. The surrounding towns, villages, chateaus and markets are all with in an easy drive and worth a visit. Jo and Jim were great hosts who were on hand if needed. Thanks for a great stay.

This was a truly lovely holiday in a lovely region of France, rich with historical sites and a variety of local activities. The nearby markets and charming villages are perfect for day trips and exploring the local culture.As for the villa itself, excellent. It’s very well equipped with everything you could need to make your stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, and the pool is fantastic, with the added bonus of being heated to just the right temperature.The garden is beautifully maintained, with great views and a peaceful, natural atmosphere. The owners live on-site but are never intrusive, they’re friendly and always happy to help if you need anything.All in all, it was a wonderfully relaxing holiday. We’ll definitely be coming back, thank you. 10/10!

We have booked several holidays through VRBO . This was the best. Our hosts Jim & Jo were excellent and provided clear directions to the propery. We spent a wonderful restful week at their lovely cottage. Ideal location for exploring the many Bastide villages in the area. Cottage has every facility necessary for an enjoyable stay including lovely heated pool. The cottage has been thoughtfully restored by the owners. The secluded private outdoor area was the perfect place to chill out and listen to the bird song.Would strongly recommend a stay at this property.Agnes and Stuart
