Maggie and Ahm were so gracious and kind - we couldn't have asked for better hosts. Their home in Sarlat is perfectly situated just outside of town, allowing for a quiet place to nest after a day of exploring. Matisse is spacious and bright, surrounded by beautiful landscaping and so many birds! We absolutely loved our time there. Thank you Ahm and Maggie for a perfect week in Sarlat.

Thank you for your lovely review Jennifer. It was a pleasure to host you and Geoff. We are lucky to have a lot of happy friendly and thoughtful guests, and you were so natural and kind and just so easy to have around. We’d have you as neighbours anytime.
Enjoy the rest of your holiday in France and don’t forget to send some pictures of your beautiful garden when you get home.
All out very best wishes 🌸🌼
A delightful apartment on the edge of Sarlat with a 10 minute walk to the downtown. So easy to enjoy the many pleasures of the town, which is an amazing piece of medieval architecture. Host and hostess were very nice to us and we really enjoyed staying with them.
More spacious than anticipated; with separate lounge room and fabulous adjacent enclosed sunroom providing a great vista of the Sarlat village. The hosts are very friendly and helpful, making our stay all the more enjoyable.
Quiet apartment less than a 10-minute walk from restaurants and bakeries in beautiful Sarlat. Maggie and Ahm are friendly and will bend over backward to make your stay enjoyable!
This was a fantastic apartment for our 6-day stay. Our hosts were so welcoming and very helpful!!! The apartment was even better than the beautiful photos. We Alternated days spent exploring Sarlat town with days out to prehistoric sites (Lascaux II is amazing), huge caves, bastide towns, and the beautiful countryside

Hi Anne and Carl
You were brilliant guests. It was great to spend an evening with you and share our travel experiences etc.
Thanks for that amazing bottle of wine. We’ll add the Domme vineyard to our list of interesting places.
Happy travels, keep in touch.
Love, Maggie and Ahm
It is a lovely flat in an ideal location, only a few minutes from the centre of town. It is a good place from where to explore the Dordogne, and in the flat was a guide which we found very useful. We had a good welcome when we arrived and enjoyed our stay. We will visit again if we get the opportunity. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
A spacious, charming apartment with an enclosed sunroom plus an outdoor terrace. Short walk to middle of old town Sarlat. The Saturday market is not to be missed. Hosts very warm and welcoming. The Dordogne is a beautiful area to explore.
The property itself is superb in amenities, beauty, and convenience. The hosts are a kind, thoughtful, helpful and charming couple. The area is magical, having many medieval structures and wde, breathtaking vistas.I wish we could have stayed a month! (PS, you must tour Rocamadour. It was enchanting!)
What a great location for a base for our time in the Dordogne Valley! The apartment was lovely, the hosts friendly, and there was ample written information to help us with the apartment and environs. This location was an easy walk into Sarlat-la-Caneda old town and there is also a spot to keep your car on the property. The apartment would suit 2-4 people and the view of Sarlat from our terrace was so therapeutic!
Charming apartment within walking distance to historic Sarlat.
Clean, comfortable, well appointed Perfect spot for us. Took daily walks to historic center for dinner and shopping. There is a wonderful market all day Saturdays. We were fortunate enough to have the host tell us about the yearly candlelight walk. Such a treat. Took side trips to Beynac and Rocamodour.
Maggie and Ahm were incredibly helpful both before and during our stay. The apartment is well appointed and has a lovely sun porch where we spent most of our time when we were in the apartment. We stayed for a week and took several all day trips. Sarlat is a good base for that.
The apartment is extremely well equipped, Maggie seems to have thought of everything (including a really efficient but quiet fan which was a godsend during the recent very hot weather). The balcony is a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the view especially for lazy, shady breakfasts. All in all, a lovely place to stay.
The apartment is exactly as described and Maggie is a wonderful host. The apartment for 2 people is spacious and they have planned and thought of everything you would need.. you can easily walk into Sarlat for food and shopping. There is loads to do in the area and Maggie has put together loads of information for days out. We followed a few of these and had great days. Thanks for a wonderful week in Sarlat would definitely recommend
Lovely place, lovely owners, lovely stay… It is worth staying here, near the village (10 minutes walk), surrounded by castles and caves.
The apartment seems to have been recently refurbished and decorated with taste. It has everything you need and more.
The owners live next door and if something is needed, they are at your disposal.
Definitely we'd come back and recommend it!
This apartment (Matisse) was the best one I’ve stayed in! Maggie and Ahm, the owners, went out of their way to make me feel comfortable. The photos of this apartment show exactly what it is like….unlike the other apartments I’ve stayed in. The selection of kitchen equipment was perfect, the location a 15 minute walk into Sarlat….I just can’t say enough about what a fantastic stay I had. 🍷 to Maggie and Ahm (and Moraig and Mark)! Perfection!

Karen, from the moment you arrived we knew you were going to be a delight to host. You inspired us with your travels, and your enthusiasm to see as much of the region as you could. We always find people who appreciate what is here have the best time. It’s why travel is so rewarding.
Thank you so much for your very kind words, it makes what we do so worthwhile.
Getting to know you has been a privilege we wouldn’t have missed for the world. You have our hearts, Maggie and Ahm ❤️
We are a Canadian couple who have stayed in many property rentals over the years and we have to say that this property is the best of the best. The apartment is immaculate, quiet, fully equipped, even if you want to cook. Everything works and the lighting is great. It is lovingly and tastefully decorated. And on top of all that, Maggie and Ahm are the most responsive and thoughtful hosts. They go the extra mile to make your stay easy and enjoyable. Just wish there was a higher rating to give them. 5+++
The apartment is everything I hoped for, and more, a 'home from home' which was spotlessly clean. It's true to the photos but they don't reflect the 'feel' of the place. Within a week I felt like I was staying in the home of friends. The hosts, Maggie and Ahm strike the perfect balance between privacy and helpfulness/support. They provide loads of useful information about the area that made planning day trips much easier. I have no hesitation in recommending Matisse and am delighted to have met Maggie and Ahm, they made my road trip adventure through France all the more enjoyable. Thank you.

You were a joy to have to stay Karen. You were so kind and appreciative of everything we felt really touched. You make what we do so worthwhile.
We both wish you all the best on your French road trip. And we’d love to meet up again in the future and hear all about it. You’ll always be welcome.
Lovely place to unwind and relax/recover after 7 days cycling from Bordeaux. All the character and delightful quirkiness of a typical French apartment, including the odd creaky floor and low (for me) doorway stud height. Beautifully furnished.
Our hosts could not be more helpful. They went out of their way to obtain tourist information we needed and when we were let down by the local taxi company they actually took us in their own car some considerable distance to the the train station which was located in a neighbouring village. Exemplary service!
Excellent location for those without transport. 10m minutes walk into the centre of Sarlat and even less to the local supermarket.
Our stay in Sarlat in this apartment was without doubt a very enjoyable experience and comes very highly recommended. Thank you Maggie and Ahmed.

Thank you for your kind review William. It was great to meet you and Lynn, we feel very inspired by your cycle trip from Bordeaux. Also we ate at L’hostellerie du Passeur in Kes Eyzies as you recommended and had a very good meal. We’ve since added it to our restaurant recommendations list.
Thanks for being brilliant guests.
Very best wishes, Maggie and Ahm
Super accueil. Des hôtes très disponibles alors que ns sommes arrivés à 21h30.Appartement très bien équipé et très propre.Emplacement idéal.A ne pas louper.
Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Gastgeber waren sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich und jederzeit ansprechbar. Die Altstadt von Sarlat ist fußläufig erreichbar. Wir haben uns in den zwei Wochen dort sehr wohl gefühlt.
