Perfect guests, Marinela, Jon and Theo. Loved having them here, our chats and hearing how they enjoyed this beautiful region and Laugerie Basse. I would welcome them back here and hope to see them again. Jeanie
My husband and I really loved and enjoyed Jeanie's property! Jeanie was a wonderful host! She checked us in and we had a wonderful surprise with a bottle of Bergerac and a bottle of sparkling water. Nice touch indeed! The location was perfect for visiting Sarlat, Chateau de Milandes, Beynac-et-Cazenac, La Roque-Gageac and other beautiful villages and chateaux around Perigord. Highly recommend!

Wir waren (leider) nur 5 Tage in dieser wunderschönen gîte, aber wir haben die Zeit dort sehr genossen. Die Lage ist absolut top, um die vielen Ausflugsmöglichkeiten der Gegend zu erkunden: Dörfer, Gärten, Höhlen etc. Erc erc, und doch sehr ruhig und ländlich gelegen. Gekrönt wird das ganze natürlich noch durch den angenehm temperierten Pool. Die Gastgeberin ist super freundlich. Wir kommen bestimmt sehr gerne wieder.
Vielen lieben Dank und alles gute! Bis bald!!

About the host
Hosted by Jean Mulqueeny
I have visited this area for many years and fell in love with this beautiful place, I love nature and nothing could be more perfect than living here. I decided to have a complete lifestyle change and moved from the UK May 2021 to follow my dreams of living and working here in France. I have two grown up sons called James and Matthew who have spent several holidays here with me before I decided to make the move. They are delighted and will be spending many holidays here with their partners and friends ! The move here was made easier as my sister Jillian and her partner Nigel live about a minute away from Laugerie Basse with their dog Elon, which is fantastic and I have a cat called Miska .. it's fun when the dog and cat meet !! So ..it's very much a family affair here as my folks visit as well and enjoy this beautiful place.
I love walking along the Dordogne river as the views are stunning in all seasons and it's very peaceful,there are lots of fantastic walks here to enjoy. I am happy to suggest good walks or even show guests a lovely walk locally. I also enjoy cycling , swimming, canoeing and meditation and it's the perfect place here at Laugerie Basse to enjoy all of these activities.
Why they chose this property
Laugerie Basse is beautiful, a very calming and relaxing place which is why I fell in love with it here. I live in the farmhouse on site and there are 4 lovely gites for rent . The pool is fantastic and the grounds to roam around and relax in are stunning, there is a play area for children and an orchard for guests to enjoy as well. The sunrise and sunsets are beautiful and it is such a lovely space to be in, perfect for families, couples & friends.
What makes this property unique
It’s unique as it provides a home from home feel , it is very private and peaceful enabling guests to relax in a tranquil setting.
It is very close to St Cyprien town and a lovely short walk to the Dordogne river. There are many beautiful places to visit in the surrounding area, so lots of sightseeing and then returning to a relaxing environment is perfect for all.
So I look forward to welcoming you to my beautiful home.
