Our family group of 15 from Ireland spent 5 days at this beautiful bastide in July 2025. The facilities are excellent for a large group, with three fridges and two dishwashers and bbq. The accomodation was spotlessly clean and plenty of hot water in each bathroom. The pool was perfect, and again very clean and not over chlorinated. Parking space in the outer building was very good in the hot weather. The location is lovely and peaceful and very private. We would highly recommended this property for anyone who wants to explore the surrounding area. Host Solene was available to contact if needed although Robert was also available for any queries. We really enjoyed our stay.

from the moment we booked this property the owner (Solenne) was extremely helpful, she let me know all information regarding the property that I asked about as well as advising us of local attractions etc before we even arrived, she allowed us to check in early and depart later than arranged. property was very clean and had everything as advertised, was a great trip with 24 members of our family from 2yrs old through to adults. would recommend this property to any large groups wanting to get away for a week or two and stay in your own little bubble away from the outside world. would stay again and can't thank Solenne enough for all her help throughout - 5 stars *****

House is located outside a small village, has a great swimming pool and very spacious. The kitchen has 3 fridges (which you will need) and the outside sitting is just great. Communication with the house owners was easy via Email or WhatsApp and the owner met us at the property a few times to help us with maps and things to do around the area. Overall, highly recommended. Only downside we had is it was VERY hot, and the house does not have an AC. but I believe this is the case with many houses in France, and we did hit a record high week, so I wouldn't be too worried about it.
