Very beautiful villa, tastefully renovated. We spent 3 very pleasant days there as a family. The big plus is having a shower room and WC for each bedroom. Ideal location to relax and walk along the Canal du Midi. We will gladly come back.
Excellent. To be recommended without moderation. Charming, welcoming hosts. Caretaker's house renovated in the style of the building, with taste and attention to detail. Very clean. Superb swimming pool in a beautiful wooded and very well maintained park. Very quiet environment. Pleasant local restaurants... ideally placed for visiting Montignac, Sarlat, the eyzies, the Rosue Gageac and other tourist sites. To recommend and congratulate Caterina and Steve for the renovation of this magnificent property.
An exceptional discovery in Meursault! The property is finely furnished, clean and comfortable. Just a stone's throw from the center and various wineries. I highly recommend it to everyone! We will return soon! Well done.
It's impossible not to smile in the Gers. At the heart of Gascony, this land is green and gentle, with hills, rivers, armagnac, ducks, arcaded village squares and solid people ambling a couple of hours behind mainstream France. Given the feudal feel, a château fits the frame. Few are more sumptuous than the Château Mézard, near Condom, which sleeps 13. Surrounded by 42 acres, it's the sort of place ordinary mortals pay to look round, not stay in.
Thanks so much for the restaurant recommendations - will look into doing that. We are having a fantastic time here. I think your house is possibly the best house we've stayed in in France over the years. Yes, it's just fabulous! We've had a really fantastic week here and I'm pretty sure we'll be wanting to come back next year. Your house has been so generous... I've read some books here, loved looking through the coffee table books too. Your welcome basket was the most generous we've ever received in any of the houses we have rented. Allowing us to use pool towels as well. And I know it sounds a bit like a hotel review but the bed linen / towels and bathrooms were just top quality! Taking a break from it now to start packing up! P.S. We went to Le Moulin for lunch and it was superb. We will be in touch to hopefully book same week again next year.
Such a nice place! Great location for some R&R. The pool was perfect with weather being hot and humid.
We visited Maison Sebastien with our 2.5 year old toddler and other friends in early April 2016. The house is, of course, stunning, but more impressive is the attention to detail which makes this a delightfully comfortable place to stay. The kitchen has everything you need to create memorable meals from the local produce. The bedrooms have comfortable beds with good linen. The bathrooms are stylish and have good water pressure - which may seem odd to mention, but having stayed in places where the shower delivers a lukewarm dribble, I can vouch for its importance! We were too early for the pool to be open but it's obvious that the pool terrace is a wonderful place on a warm Summer's day. The whole house is tasteful, cool and beautiful. But more importantly, it works - as a home from home and as a wonderfully stylish place to stay. We'll be back.
What a fantastic week we had at Mas de Clouze. The house is beautiful and we loved the attention to detail like the towels and soap in all the showers. The woods proved to be brilliant for treasure hunts for the kids and of course we spent many hours at the lovely pool! All in all a great week! We’d love to come back.
Fantastic holiday. We come to France a lot and this is one of the best places we have stayed in.
I can't begin to tell you how wonderful this house is, with its warm inviting rooms, its wonderful outside spaces and fabulous heated pool. It is decorated in a comfortable style that makes you feel as if you are at home and not in holiday accommodation. It is extremely clean; the kitchen and bathrooms, spotless, The bedrooms are comfortable with plenty of clean sheets and towels. The house is fairly large and my husband I and stayed on our own, but we felt safe and secure. Obviously, with all the space, it is ideal for families, but equally as inviting for groups of friends. Situated in a small village, it is quiet - you can hear the church bells ringing in the local church. We loved to walk around the village and through the fields behind the house. We did think about going on a bike ride but decided just to sit by the pool most afternoons. It is an easy drive to Saint-Émilion (and other local vineyards) - my husband managed to find it without getting us lost! The drive from the airport probably took us about 40 minutes. Isabelle gave us wonderful direction - she speaks perfect English. In a word - wonderful!
We enjoyed our holidays in the Villa Saumane very much. The house was perfect and beautiful. We especially liked the gardens and the quiet of the area. The house and especially the kitchen are very well equipped, we did not miss anything. We will definitely come again!
We have had a brilliant holiday! Loved the villa and pool and the surrounding area. We loved it here.
Than you for such a wonderful stay! Wonderful pool and the whole house was immaculate and very comfortable. Éric was always on hand to help and look after the pool and outside areas. We had a great time and will see you again soon!
After a two-year pause in our travel arrangements we couldn’t have been more delighted with our visit to the Loft du Vigneron. It was everything - and more - than we had hoped for. Thank you both for your generosity of conversation, wine and gin!!! Good luck with the next phase of Le Domaine aux Quat’Saisons, not that we think you will need it - quite simply, it is stunning.
We have absolutely loved staying here! We have enjoyed the beautiful sunsets, laying by the pool and preparing meals together. Chef Arnaud was wonderful and we highly recommend him. We visited Duras, Villeneuve-sur-Lot and Saint-Émilion, Sainte-Foy, Bordeaux and Cap Ferret. Coming back home here at the of the day always felt like home and we hope to visit again. This is our 10 years anniversary and this home was great vacation for a special trip together. Thank you for sharing your house.
We had a lovely time thank you - we've stayed in many properties in France over the years and I can safely say that Domaine des Volets was the best equipped and most comfortable. It was great being so close to Carcassonne as well. If you will have us again, we would love to return some day!
We loved this peace! Thank you so much for making our week here the best we have had ever in France. All your help and tips made a perfect week to us. We can certainly recommend La Route du Sel. Bike rental from Gennes was also a great way to see La Loire. Thank you also for keeping the house and garden so beautifully. We hope to come back!
We are having a fantastic time. Everything is perfect thank you.
Thank you for a fantastic fews days - what a beautiful house and a lovely hostess. Weather was perfect too. We hope we will be back.
Where to start, we have had such a wonderful week we have loved everything about this house and grounds. It is the best house we have ever hired as a group and Mike and Natalie have gone out of their way to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Just to mention a few of the many things we loved about the house, the fantastic swimming pool, the incredible views, the activities provided, the comfortable beds, the beautiful seating areas in and out of the house, the breakfast area, the bathrooms... and of course Myrtle the cat who joined us every morning for breakfast. Best of all it was a fantastic place for Grace and Ken to get engaged to be married! Thank you so much for the opportunity to hire this beautiful home. (This was truly a magical place to get engaged, Grace x)
We had a fantastic time at Maison Sebastien. It was beautiful. The caretaker on site was excellent, so kind and helpful.Overall a great holiday. Kind Regards
Absolutely gorgeous house. Périgueux and Saint-Émilion were both charming - wonderful food, too. Weather has been idyllic and the swimming pool and loungers were a perfect way to relax. We will greatly miss this house and take with us very happy memories of our holiday here.
We loved the site; very peaceful and relaxing, despite the suburban setting. Everything you need is here! Pézenas is a beautiful place and we also liked Meze, Tourbes and especially enjoyed kayaking down the Hérault river.
A charming property and in great location to explore the Loire Valley. Great property- a true piece of history, well persevered and maintained, with a charming personal interior touch of the owners, and in an excellent good location for exploring the Loire Valley. We spent a week in late July, two families with two teenagers each, and we had a great time. First the property – you arrive through a generous and welcoming front yard. The house itself is a really great piece of historic architecture (probably 400 – 500 years old) and full of character and charm, from the traditional contractions materials (stones and old wood beams), large traditional fireplaces in each room (one still fully functional). At the ground floor there are large rooms (living, dinning, library and a full equipped kitchen) so anyone can find its own space, in case for any reason you want to stay indoors. On the first floor two large bedrooms and another two bedrooms on the second floor. Plenty of space for 8 to 10 people. Coming out on the back of the house it is the real “piece de resistance”, a vast garden with a well maintain lawn, swimming pool and a pool house with lots of games. It is here where everyone spent most of the time. We had great weather, so when we were not out visiting the region, we were in the back yard (your private little park) swimming in the pool, playing ping-pong, badminton, fuss ball or playing fetch with our dog. Second the location –great base for exploring the Loire valley, from a genuine vegetables farm that is just next door, an unassuming but great boulangerie in the village and close proximity to Samur, to numerous castles that are in 45 – 90 minutes drive. We would recommend a visit to Chateau Villandry castle, a bit atypical for the region, as it was renovated and used in the modern days and its gardens are exceptionally, even by French castles standards. We also did a day trip to the Atlantic coast and had a lovely day on the beach. To sum up, all you need for a great vacation – a property full of character and charm, lots of activities indoor and outdoor and a great location to explore one of the most interesting regions in France by car or by bike.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Maison des Cordeliers, it is the perfect location to enjoy peace and quiet after a busy day exploring. We hope to return!
We had a wonderful springtime week We had a wonderful springtime week at La Maison Sebastian, full of relaxation and beautiful experiences in the surrounding countryside. It was a privilege to be welcomed to this convivial home which is clearly loved by its owners and guests alike. Everything was clean, organized, and thoughtfully done. The setting lends itself to slowing down — taking a meandering walk through the peaceful woods all around, relishing an evening aépro on the terrace, or sparking memorable conversations by the fire. We are thankful to the house guardien Francois and housekeeper Sandrine for their impeccable work. The hosts also went the extra mile for our comfort, first by ensuring we ate well during a bank holiday when many markets closed and then by returning via post a jacket I had left behind. My grandmother used to say if you forgot an item somewhere, it means your heart wants to return. In the case of San Sebastien, I know that is true. Kevin
Super two weeks at this lovely villa. Fantastic location to explore the area Marseillan. Meze a must, great lunch at Noilly Prat, coffee in Meze. We spent many happy hours in the great waterpool. Thank you.
We booked for a week in late July to celebrate my husband's Big Birthday. There were 13 of us ranging from 4 - 80. We all loved the beautiful, spacious house and the large grounds and lovely countryside. The pool is fabulous and the children spent most of the time in it, when they weren't on the trampoline or playing table tennis! Ally and Tim were wonderfully friendly and helpful hosts and cooked us a truly gourmet dinner one evening. There are lots of charming, historic villages in the area. This place is a gem.
Lovely quiet gîtes with beautiful views over the wine fields. Close to Uzès, a very pretty historical market town (20 min. by car). The gîtes provide everything you need, i.e. comfortable beds, spacious bathroom, cosy sitting room and fully equipped kitchen. There is a swimming pool with lounge beds and our gîte (L'Oliveraie) even had a small private pool. The area is great for walk through the woods and over the wine field. There are restaurants in the area that are a short drive away. We had a great and relaxing time and will definitely be back!
