We had such a lovely time here surrounded by beautiful scenery, peace and calmness. Thank you for wonderful house. We were very comfortable and felt welcomed. Thank you Ray and Jacinta.
A stunning property with discreet, helpful owners a short distance away. Sue and Peter, the owners, are very friendly and informative and seem to have thought of everything to make your stay as relaxing as possible and leave you get on with your own thing. The location is ideal for visiting the many Bastide towns and villages and the numerous vineyards of the region are within easy reach. The under floor cooling keeps the house at a very comfortable level even in the hottest weather and the pool an ideal size to relax and to play. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to get away and relax.
We had an excellent holiday at the villa, it was just perfect. The pool was perfect and the seating areas outside were ideal for eating and drinking and gazing at the stars. We will definitely recommend the villa to friends and family, it's a dream we want to share.
We have all enjoyed and felt thoroughly at home in your spectacular home.
A lovely retreat with a beautiful view. The weather was fabulous and the pool was well used. Sue and Brian were excellent hosts. Great pool, great hosts, great location.
Can I just say what a beautiful house and location this was for our holiday, spot on!
Lovely property and surrounding grounds. We enjoyed the pool enormously with everything you provide, and also the countryside here.
This is an ideal holiday home if you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing time surrounded by beautiful countryside. There are no other houses nearby, yet you are only a 10 minute drive from the nearby Bastide of Monpazier and larger town of Villareal, where there are shops, restaurants, markets etc. The pool is a good size and well maintained, and the house is very well equipped. We have been coming to France for over 10 years and this is the only property which has enticed us back for 2 years running.
We stayed in Maison Bouquier after falling in love with the area on a previous trip, and loving then the walking in the Dentelles, the tranquility, the pretty villages and excellent vineyards. If you feel active then Les Baux (and the outstanding Carrieres de Luminieres), Avignon, Orange And Châteauneuf-du-Pape are all good outings. Caromb is a great base to stay, with an extremely good supermarket, good range of local shops plus cafés, and an outstanding restaurant in the town square. The house is situated at the edge of the village so is very peaceful. The house is really attractive with lovely gardens. It is extremely stylish yet very relaxing, and was really well equipped. We appreciated the very comfortable beds and sofas, the powerful showers, the top of the range cooker, quality appliances and fans. It was lovely to always eat in the outdoors dining area, shaded even at the sunniest time of day, with a wonderful view. The pool, patio and second little seating area were all much enjoyed. We had a fabulous week.
Villa Funel was in a lovely position being very private with glimpses of surrounds. The accommodation was exceptionally clean, and well furnished with everything you could need and more (much better than some previous villas we have rented!). The pool was a good size, gorgeous, nice to swim after sightseeing. I would thoroughly recommend this villa to either a couple or a family.
We had a great time at the villa. Elizabeth has been great and very helpful. The villa has everything we needed and the hot weather has made it absolutely perfect. We are planning to return if we can.
It is beautiful and absolutely perfect for our needs. We also loved the village and the restaurant. We have stayed in some lovely houses in France but yours is definitely the best. We will be in touch when we next head to France!
Our family loved staying in this farmhouse. We couldn't get the kids out of the pool, the sunsets were beautiful and we enjoyed watching the birds fly all around us. It was a great place to come home to after a full day of sightseeing. Very relaxing!
We found the property by chance a few years ago and have been back twice since and will be returning with our 4 and 6 year old kids again this July! We have come to think of it as our French home away from home. The house is beautifully located and the interior and exterior space makes for a fabulous family vacation. The pool on the lower terrace gives enough separation that you can keep the kids safely away and the pool alarm adds that extra level of comfort. The owners continue to maintain and upgrade the property well and the new BBQ area on the terrace gets used daily for those lunch and evening meals overlooking the valley. The short stroll to town is easy and avoids having to worry about cars and parking, although a glass or two of Provence wine helps with the walk back up the hill afterwards which could be a challenge for those less mobile. Most hire cars will fit up the lane to the house (we had a Volvo C90 last year and were fine) but if you have a very large people carrier it can get a little narrow to maneuver round the corner at the bottom. The house is perfect for one or two families to enjoy a wonderful escape.
We had a lovely stay a Mas des Jardins, spending practically the whole of our time there living outside in the lovely gardens with views over the surrounding fields. The house was very well equipped and the staff were great and seemed prepared to go the extra mile to help us. Overall, we would thoroughly recommend it.
We (two couples) enjoyed our stay at this property very much and highly recommend it to travelers looking for a beautiful escape from the hustle bustle of the larger tourist centres. Hervé and Susan were gracious hosts and provided us with excellent restaurant and sightseeing recommendations. The cottage was spotlessly clean, well equipped and authentically french. The private, quiet setting and pool were as beautiful as the pictures suggest. The property is ideal for people looking for lovely walks in the countryside but it is also ideally located for exploring many historic towns, châteaux and vinyards in the Dordogne. If circumstances allow, we will be back!
We have had a wonderful holiday! Beautiful château, scenery, fantastic wine and food! The children have loved the pool and playing hide and seek in this amazing house. Merci!
We stayed at Maison Sainte-Croix in June last year, and I have to say, we had a fantastic holiday. The spacious house is very comfortable and there is plenty of room for everyone. We particularly liked the choice of terraces to enjoy the magnificent views at different times of the day. We had many enjoyable afternoons tasting wine in the various local villages, and were glad that we drove rather than flew so that we could take home some of our favourites! We found some very good restaurants in Vaison and the street market is well worth a visit. Many thanks!
Thank you so very much for allowing us to share your wonderful villa. A little cool weather but we all had a great time. My brother actually worked for Courage Ales in London, England. I thought it was a small world. Mike and your lovely wife were great. If you are ever in Toronto Canada please contact us.
It was a real privilege to stay at Château Monjardin - it's a fantastic property full of character and it really felt like a home to us. The guardian is great and made us feel very welcome.
Beautiful setting, fantastic space. Well kept both inside and out. Facilities were fantastic. Great pool - child friendly and garden toys were a perfect addition too. Lovely family holiday enjoyed by all ages.
Having stayed at your property, we would like to thank you for the nice holiday we had. The house, the organisation, all was perfect. Also Gary and Louise, fantastic persons, very friendly and helpful. Long time since I experienced such a perfect service from A to Z.
It is impossible to really think of a suggestion for heaven. We all have had a wonderful holiday at Villa Galinette. Thank you from each of us.
What a wonderful holiday in this lovely home. We were warmly welcomed by Corinne and found everything we could ever want / wish for on a family holiday / parents / grand parents and small children. The weather was as anticipated - hot and temperate at times, incredible thunder storms / blue skies. The pool was a great hit with all and the pool toys, outdoor toys and indoor entertainment ensured all needs were catered for. Finally, a great thank you to Mel for her attention to detail and unfailing helpfulness.
As the second week of our holidays it's been great to immediately relax in such lovely surroundings and le Tournesol has been amongst the best places we've found in France over the last couple of years. Richard and Meryl, you've created a wonderful retreat with all the little details we certainly appreciate. Sharp knives to make cooking a pleasure and a decent coffee machine! Sunday greeted us with the most spectacular lightening storm rumbling across the huge skies, but we've also enjoyed glorious sunny days and warm evenings. Perfect to enjoy with a bottle of wine... or two. Moissac and Laureate should be on everyone's visit list, both close and delightful to walk around. The cake must get a mention - delicious and very appreciated. As was dinner on our arrival and the great evening we had with our lovely hosts. Bourg de Visa is quiet but all life came out at the night market and the food and musical entertainment definitely a great surprise. We'll remember our time fondly. and if passing no the way it the NC500 Richard, let us know!
I wanted to be sure I sent you a note of thanks, for the glamorous week we had at Château Monjardin! Our week was filled with day trips and culinary delights. We love the space your Château provides and felt very comfortable there, we didn't want to leave. Thank you for a wonderful vacation filled with fond memories.
I can't recommend this home highly enough. the kids loved playing in the pool after a day of sight-seeing. We were relaxed from the first moment. You will be so happy you stayed here!
We all thank you for a beautiful holiday spent in your fantastic house. Breakfast in the garden, peace and wonderful flowers - that is what we will always remember. And maybe... we will return someday.
We have had a wonderful stay at your home. The gardens, views and the ambiance were spectacular in every way. Even with 16 people the first week, the house never seemed crowded. The location is excellent, close to all the Dordogne attractions, and I think we visited most of them. Adding to the experience was the Jack of all trades, your care-taker, what a terrific fellow. We enjoyed his advice, good humour and of course his vegetables. He is a real gem. Equally important was our experience with your maid, conscientious, sweet and very helpful. Our dinner with your chef was spectacular. He was easy to work with, and we were very satisfied. We are happy to recommend him to future guests. All in all we really had a great time and loved our trip!
