A week that will remain in our memories for life! 13 members of our family stayed at the chateau for the most wonderful week. Staying in a castle was a new experience for all, especially for the children! The pool was much used and fully appreciated! Our host was a great support. We dined at his restaurant and he cooked a wonderful meal for us at the chateau! We explored local villages. Noyers was a delight as were Chablis and the local vineyards. This was a week that will remain in our memories for life!
Thank you so much for a fantastic week in the beautiful fairytale Chateau. My husband had a truly memorable birthday with so many wonderful memories to cherish. Thanks again to the fantastic team - we would love to return.
A blissful week spent with my children at Maison Lemance. Greeted by the gorgeous owner, Sam, we immediately settled into the house and felt completely at home. With its abundance of terraces, dining areas and sitting rooms, there was always a perfect spot for everyone to relax. The kitchen was particularly well equipped, making the occasional meal at the villa an absolute joy. The pool, with its comfortable loungers, along with the ping-pong table, boules and badminton, kept everyone happily entertained. The nearest mini-marché was a one-minute drive away at most and was perfect for our morning trips for fresh baguettes and cheese. The huge E.Leclerc supermarket was an easy 20-minute drive and had absolutely everything we could possibly need, from pool floats, books and clothes to food and wine. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, we truly felt “nestled in green nowhere.” We ventured out to visit the lively town of Fumel, where we enjoyed lunch by the river, and I would also highly recommend a visit to Château de Bonaguil. However, we were so content lazing by the pool at the house that we rarely felt the need to venture far. Even the local vineyards couldn’t quite lure us away, particularly as Sam had thoughtfully filled the fridge with some fantastic local wine. In fact, I’m already highly tempted to book again for next year — just to make sure we get to return to this little slice of heaven!
What a fabulous week we have had with great friends in this lovely villa. Thanks Galina for making us so welcome. The villa has answered all our needs, have loved the pool, boules court and the bikes have been great to get out and explore.
We have really loved spending a week in this lovely house and garden. Thank you for you hospitality and we wish all the best to you and your family.
We enjoyed this fabulous house Arrived safely and enjoying your fabulous house. We went to the market today in Issigeac and had a lovely day.
We visited as 3 families of 4 with 6 children age 7 and under between us. The pictures don’t do the house or grounds justice. It was absolutely wonderful with everything we could have needed for adults and children. Plenty of space, inside and out and the pool that kept everyone happy for hours every day. We would highly recommend to others.
We have just returned from Villa La Baronne where our family of 15 had a wonderful time! The villa is exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. It is in an ideal location, less than a 10 minute drive to the nearest supermarket.
This property is so beautiful you may not want to venture out, but if you do there are great restaurants and bars nearby as well as lovely walks and biking trails. The rooms are very comfortable, all en-suite and everything you could wish for is provided. The huge swimming pool / pool house / relaxing / eating and barbecue areas mean that you can be outside all the time but the gorgeous well equipped kitchen and indoor rooms offer a cool alternative. Cant wait to go back!
Located in a beautiful environment by the Canal du Midi in a small village full of charm with its small stone bridge, restaurants and this incredible bookstore, this accommodation is perfect. Beautiful bedrooms with their own very spacious bathrooms, a very warm living room with its fireplace, beautiful ceiling height, a well-equipped open kitchen and pretty beams. A nice pool area, a large garden, lovely terrace are also worth highlighting. The hospitality is perfect. I highly recommend it.
What a total haven from the pressures of normal life. Hope to be back next year!
‘What a beautiful stay in the tranquil cottage - we even got engaged!’
The house was fantastic and had everything we needed for our stay - we loved it! we only wish we could stay longer!
We had a very good week at Le Manoir de la Compagnie. The property is very quiet, in a beautiful site (large garden, beautiful trees...). It is very well equipped: top bedding, sheets/towels/tea towels provided as well as shower gel and shampoo, large and well equipped kitchen, everything is well calibrated for a group of 12 adults. The rooms are large and well decorated. The owners are charming, available without being intrusive and have a family history that is interesting to discover. In short, I completely recommend this rental
The apartment is incredibly cool and offers a breathtaking view from the large balcony. The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful, which suited us very well. We will definitely go back. It is good to know that there is no grocery store in the immediate vicinity. It is recommended to have a car if you do not choose to do your daily exercise in connection with your purchases. :)
We've rented a lot of other villa, châteaux and domaines, but this one was the best! The six ensuite bedrooms were all the same size and had the same amenities so none of the six couples had a less than optimal room as we've experienced in other rentals. The two on-site staff were wonderful and spoke perfect English (they're Irish so not a surprise). The location in Burgundy was perfect for day trips. If you book this rental, you'll be delighted!
Fantastic holiday. We come to France a lot and this is one of the best places we have stayed in.
Wow, what a beautiful house you have, it had everything we needed for a perfect family holiday. Thank you for sharing it, we take away very happy memories of our time here. This is our first visit staying in Dordogne and we have loved the beautiful scenery, not to mention some amazing restaurants and delicious croissants and chocolatines!!! The gardnes are stunning with the smell of the lavander and roses (my favorites).
Can't believe the stay is almost at an end. We have had a lovely time and the weather promised poorly but delivered very well, which enabled daily swimming in the brilliant pool. We all enjoyed the games of TT (table tennis) and boules competitions. So many interesting things to do in the surrounding area; we only managed Bergerac twice. Once for a wine tasting in the wonderful Maison du Vin and once for a very enjoyable boat trip. Golfing Black Kheri and the walk around the lake Les Graoussettes. The cave at Les Eyzies was very informative and curious to note the difference in scenery; handles not to be missed! Apart from the BBQ provided, we happened on Thursday Market at Monpazier; simply great and such a pretty place. We also enjoyed the marché gourmand at Villeréal (every Monday from 6.30pm. Bring tablecloth, cutlery and drinking vessels). Their counterparts in Issigeac on Thursdays during summer. Restaurant L’Atelier in Issigeac was a wonderful treat on our penultimate day and we would suggest booking a place at their mini, shared table and great food and plenty of wine.
Merci Cédric and Virginie. We've had an amazing stay at this beautiful villa. It's exactly what we needed and so much more! The village and surrounding towns again were beautiful and couldn't have asked for more! We will definitely be recommending the House of Swallows to all of our family and friends.
Thank you for a fabulous holiday. Lovely house, fantastic pool and gardens. A relaxing family get together in France. Merci!
Beautiful holiday destination, especially nice garden, optimal exposure. With young children there are many activities surrounding and great moments of fun by the pool. Everything needed for children. Quiet and peaceful setting with amazing views. Tastefully decorated and fully equipped. Highly recommended!
Le Séchoir Carme was a lovely holiday let and we enjoyed two weeks exploring the region from this beautiful house returning each late afternoon to enjoy the large pool and cool down before dinner. The house is well proportioned and the kitchen/living area is well designed (and equipped) with wonderful access to the outdoor dining area and pool. A thoroughly enjoyable holiday with all we needed for our young family.
A wonderful week for three generations of us, from 128 months to 70 years. We've had a great time.
The most amazing week with our family. Everything at la Bastide made our party have the best of fun.
Loved the location and the winding lane down to the property. Arrived to find a hidden and very private garden that was wonderfully lit at night and with a beautiful pool. Total silence and never saw or heard another person in the week we were there. If you’re looking for a quiet week away from the hassles of a hectic world, then this is the place for you!
Wonderful fortnight! An absolute gem of a place; the house is a delight and the grounds are surely the best. This is a very special place. Thank you!
Beautifully located, right on the sea, very neat and very cozy even in bad weather. Lionel was via telephone and email at all times and has responded quickly to any questions. The concierge, who hands over the keys and makes the final cleaning is very personable and locally at all times. In short: everything perfect! We would definitely come back!
We thought this was the perfect setting for our extended family holiday. We had long lazy days by the pool, some nice days out to the bastide towns and alfresco dinners followed by games We rescued several frogs from the pool! There were plenty of distractions in the house for every age and we found the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Fabulous weather for two birthday celebrations and we found it to be a very peaceful and idyllic setting. Amazing house! We all made amazing memories and had a great time.
