The house is well-equipped and immaculately clean. It's central location makes it a great base from which to explore the Périgord Noir. We really enjoyed the pool, badminton, and table tennis. The huge grounds surrounding the cottage make it a great place to unwind.
Monica and Jean-Luc were amazing hosts, there if need, friendly and kindly. The gite was really fantadtic, superbly located for privacy, sublimely praceful,a home away from home.Very elegant in its decor, well equipped, and the pool a treat. Very handy to amenities in Sarlat and many wonderful.things to see historically and for those who enjoy gardens.Id have no hesitation in recommending the gite to anyone.Love to return!!

Gillian, Cecile, Jonathan and Sue were wonderfully kind hosts. Although the All Blacks gave the French team a beating during the July test matches, we have excellent and affectionate memories of Gillian and her friends' stay. May we see them again one day.

Surrounded by beautiful woods, gardens, open areas! The most amazing hosts! A short drive to Sarlat and so many easy day trips all over the Dordogne! Comfortable, well-appointed home with a lovely pool! We would stay here again, without question!

Hy Sue and Deborah, it was an incredible discovery to meet you. We could not imagine the depth of the feelings you have aroused in us in so few days. Many thanks and take care
We had a wonderful stay. The place is fantastic. So nice and chilled. The pool was everything we wanted it too be.
The owners Jean Luc and Monica were really helpful and gave us all the privacy we needed. I would t hesitate to book again.

We, (a couple in our mid sixty’s) stayed at this Charming gite in a very peaceful rural setting. The sun was present throughout the day on different aspects ( elevations) of the building. The inside of the Gite however remained cool compared to outside temperatures.It was a charming beautiful property, spotlessly clean with all required modern appliances. Beds were very comfortable. The pool was excellent, thoroughly cleaned every day.The owners/hosts ;Jean-Luc and Monica (who both spoke good English) were very helpful, friendly and respectful of our privacy.Would definitely recommend a stay here.
This was our second stay here, previous before Covid. Good to be back and everything was as expected, comfortable bed, and all the equipement you need. Supermarket was 10 mins away, either Leclerc, or Carrefour. Very good pool but a bit cool when we were there to use iot.
The hosts were very kind, assisting and non-intrusive. The domain is stunning, we've spotted a deer on our first evening walk around the premise. The home was spotless and felt very welcoming, the kitchen has all appliances needed. We were allowed to charge the car with fair compensation. All in all a correct price/quality stay and if the option permits we'd love to stay there again sometime.

Comfort with Character
The property was located in a very quite area outside Sarlat, it was very clean when we arrived and had everything we required and was as described on the web site . Mr & Mrs Dubost were excellent hosts, very welcoming and spoke very good english. The pool was cleaned every day and had a good cover to retain the heat overnight. The location was ideal to visit the many interesting villages in that part of the Dordogne. All in all a very good holiday.

Brenda and you were very pleasant, charming and very respectful hosts. It was a pleasure to talk a little with you. We did not want to disturb your privacy, but we would have been happy to talk a little more with you. Another time maybe if you agree !
Jean-Luc
This Gite is simply stunning, the photos don`t do it justice as its more beautiful than you could imagine, It has a wonderful home from home feeling, spotlessly clean, everything you would need and more, The location is perfect for exploring the Perigord Noir and further afield if you wish. The hosts are wonderful, so helpful and discreet that you would never know they were there unless you needed them. I can not recommend this gite highly enough as you certainly will not be disappointed for which I can ensure you of that! The pool is superb and the grounds of the gite are simply stunning and a true haven of tranquillity and beauty,
A perfect stay in this beautiful gite, set in a tranquil and natural location. It offers a fabulous, immaculately maintained swimming pool and other excellent outdoor recreational facilities. Always a delight to return home to, after busy days exploring the fantastic Dordoyne.
Jean-luc and Monica are the loveliest of hosts, always helpful and making us feel very welcome. Our only regret is that we couldn't get to know them more.
Would not hesitate to recommend this wonderful property. Everything you could ask for and more. Thank you.

with all these compliments you set the bar very high. Future visitors might be disappointed if we are not as perfect as you say ! I'm joking. We have the same regret of not having had the time to get to know each other better. Take care of you.
Jean-Luc and Monica
If you are looking for a home away from home but without all the stresses of everyday life, then look no further! You will be as overcome as we were to arrive at this stunning property! We had to pinch ourselves daily to believe it!
Jean-Luc & Monica have created the most charming gite, everything you could wish for is there, nothing has been forgotten. The place is immaculate, you can see that Jean-Luc & Monica work extremely hard to maintain their property and grounds. Jean-Luc & Monica live within the grounds and are around if you need them and happy to stop for a chat but are in no way intrusive to your holiday. You will also have sole use of a lovely, clean, well- maintained pool in the beautiful grounds.
Our days would start with fresh percolated coffee and fresh bread/croissants on the covered terrace whilst contemplating the many places to visit/things to do. Some days, we just lazed by the pool, swam, and relaxed. Others, we were up early to visit the markets and historic buildings in the beautiful mediaeval town of Sarlat-la-Caneda. This property is well located for exploring the beautiful Dordogne area, the many chateaus and places of interest but note that you do need a car!
Alas, our 2 weeks of complete relaxation came to an end on Saturday morning. We really didn't want to leave but after tears and hugs we drove away from the most perfect holiday ever. You won't meet a lovelier couple than Jean-Luc & Monica. à bientôt (with improved French next time)!

hello to the whole team. So many compliments Dee, don't you think it's a little too much. In truth, we have rarely had guests like you!
Few people know how, like you, to be so spontaneous, natural, outgoing, jovial, friendly, light-hearted and always deliciously respectful of everything. Thank you for all the cheerfulness you brought to the property throughout your stay
see all of you you again whenever you want

Ein wunderbarer Ort - gemütlich und komfortabel!Das Haus ist zudem ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten im Perigord.Monica und Jean-Luc sind sehr freundliche und diskrete Gastgeber, die auf Wunsch gerne helfen und z.B. dem Motorrad / den eBikes einen Stellplatz anbieten. Die Ruhe des Umfeldes und auch der Pool geben Raum zur Muße und Entspannung - Sarlat bietet in 12 km alle evtl. erforderliche Infrastruktur.Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen!

"Ich weiß nicht was soll es bedeuten dass wir so traurig sind; ein modernes Märchen. Die Luft ist kühl und es dunkelt, und ruhig fliesst die Dordogne. Die Hügel von Domme glitzern in der Abendsonne. Aber vielleicht liegt es daran dass Gabi und Peter gegangen sind !

Wunderbares Häuschen in traumhafter, ländlicher Umgebung, sehr gut ausgestattet, alles perfekt. Sehr
Wir hatten sehr entspannte und erholsame Tage, viele Ausflugsziele (Sarlat, Lasceaux, Vézère, Dordogne) sind nicht weit entfernt.
Schöner und gepflegter Pool - auch wenn das Wetter in diesem Jahr Ende Mai nicht mitspielte.

Maison tout aussi adorable que ses hôtes, très disponibles au cours du sejour.
Le seul bruit qu'on entend est celui des oiseaux.
La piscine, de laquelle on profite seuls, et nettoyée tous les matins, est un vrai plaisir.
Idéal pour visiter le Périgord noir, avec plein d'activités autour.
Je recommande vivement !

Ein perfektes Ferienhaus. Leben wie Gott in Frankreich!
Ein perfekter Urlaub. Der grosse Pool war wunderschön.
Das Haus ist schön eingerichtet, sehr bequeme Betten. Bestens ausgestattet mit allem was man braucht. Die Alleinlage im Wald ist sehr schön. Es gab kaum Stechmücken. Die Vermieter waren sehr nett. Die kulinarischen Genüsse im Perigord sind herrlich, man kann dieses Haus und die Gegend uneingeschränkt empfehlen.
