Simply a wonderful holiday, house and village We're just back from spending a week in this fabulous house in a great little village. The house had everything to make our stay totally comfortable with loads of space for our party of two couples and could have accommodated two or three more people easily. The pool and pool area were great with plenty of loungers and seating with a nice shaded area for refuge from the sun at the hight of the afternoon but best of all there is a great terrace where we spent the warm evenings with a glass or three of our favourite tipple. We were able to join in the fun and celebrations in the local bars as France progressed in the World Cup, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The village itself has all we would want bakeries, a couple of bars and restaurants with pretty good food and all just 1 to 2 minutes walk from the house, there is even a good supermarket 5 minutes walk away. All in all we had a great holiday and can't wait to go back next year, 5 stars from us.
Ideally located close to the Dordogne and Sarlat, Le Borghesia offers great services in a preserved and calm environment. Its interior layout perfectly combines the charm of the old with modern comfort. The decoration, partly composed of family furniture and paintings, adds a touch of soul to this charming farmhouse where we spent a very pleasant week. The very welcoming owners are a wealth of information about the region. One regret, not having had time to visit their other rentals located close to Borghesia.
Weary of election nonsense and pandemic restrictions, we sought respite in France and found it at Colombat Cottage.
We have had a fabulous week staying. The house is stunning and has provided us the perfect base to investigate the local area. We have all enjoyed the pool. Canoeing on the Dordogne was a fun family activity. We had a delicious meal at Palma Nova afterwards. We were lucky enough to be staying here when it was the annual brocante, fun to wander around. We also enjoyed food and music last night in the town hall square. A lovely end to our stay. Thank you Philip for your hospitality. À bientôt!
We really enjoyed your property and Mel is fantastic! The villa is really well equipped and modern and everything ran smoothly. I would definitely recommend this property.
I wanted to drop you a quick line to say thank you, we had a wonderful, relaxing week. The villa, garden and pool were all fabulous and we were very comfortable and had everything we needed. The villa has been finished to a very nice standard and we would definitely like to go back and we will be recommending it to our family and friends.
Sublime. We had a great family week at Maision Sebastien, in August. The house is really beautiful and has been converted with great taste in sympathy with its ancient buildings and history. The house is generously equipped and we lacked for nothing. The children especially enjoyed the pool (no chlorine so it was lovely) and also the wide selection of DVDs! The terrace is a delightful and cool place to eat, with views over the valley towards San Michel - which is also a great place to eat. Francois who looks after the house and the pool was charming and could not have been more helpful!
Superb week. Thank you warmly. Lac de Cavayère, a favorite! Carcassonne city, excellent... Bram-Motor boats, fun! Horse-ridding... Looking foreword to a relax when we get home. Lovely house, gardens beautiful, pool and vélos superb. Great memories to take back. Thank you again.
Came for 2 weeks, had a warm welcome from our hosts. We explored the area and further afield, went on lovely walks, found some lovely villages, Sarlat-la-Caneda and Bergerac with their lovely markets. Thank you Alan and Madeline for sharing your lovely home with us. Can't wait to come back with the rest of the family. Kellie and Martin x
Our family of 10 stayed here for a week and we loved every minute. The attention to detail in the chateau was wonderful. Everything we could have needed was provided. Philippe and Frederique were the most wonderful hosts. We highly recommend Chateau de Marquisat!
Excellent stay in an idyllic setting! We had a wonderful week long stay with the family. The hosts are charming and very helpful. The house is very pleasant to live in and the bedding is excellent! The swimming pool is superb, the pool house also ... in short, a perfect week!
Beautiful villa in a wonderful, peaceful and scenic part of the French countryside! Thank you for a lovely stay and 2 weeks rest! Great weather, lots of warm sunny memories to take home to rainy England. Frédéric was amazing, very friendly and helpful.
We have enjoyed every moment of our holiday here. We wanted to get away from our busy lives in London…and we did! Lounging by the pool or in hammocks, followed by evenings with delicious BBQs. Pézenas is a sweet little town with great places to eat and shop. Visit the market on Saturday for an explosion of the senses! We can't wait wait to return next summer.
We have felt so welcome in your home and are so lucky to have found you and your family in France. We hope that we will be able to return another year.
Spotlessly clean, stunning home. We had everything we needed, especially for the children. Unintrusive service. Super helpful.
My husband and I with 2 children ( 10 and 12 yrs) stayed in Le Borghesia for one week and it was absolutely bliss. The house is cool and a lovely temperature to return to from the sun, well equipped with dishwasher, large fridge freezer, washing machine and drier. Large confortable sofas and a smart TV ensured the kids were super happy after lazy days by the pool, bike rides or canoeing on the Dordogne. All within a short bike ride away. It is a very private spot, with no traffic or noise apart from the birds and of course when Victoire lovely dogs came to say hello. Its a huge house and huge pool, so can easily accomadate 8 people with plenty of luxury sun loungers, chairs, parasols and even a lovely french barn beside the pool.. I must mention the pool again because it is beautiful !!!
A lovely base for our 2 weeks! The outside covered area + kitchen were great. We spent most of our stay set there watching the amazing wildlife! We saw deer, lizards, hawks + even got to see the baby birds nesting over the door to the outside loo leave the nest! Monflanquin was beautiful! Cathy + Stéphane were lovely + we loved watching Stéphane's 2 CV car driving around! Thank you.
We had an unforgettable stay in this exceptional holiday home near Sarlat and we recommend it without hesitation. Upon arrival, this beautifully restored natural stone house impresses with its authentic charm and the quality of its construction. The traditional architecture of Périgord has been combined with taste and know-how with modern comfort. The result is a house with a very special atmosphere. This impression extends harmoniously inside. The furniture is elegant, refined and of exceptional quality. The spacious living spaces, the beautiful open kitchen and the carefully selected materials create an atmosphere that is both luxurious and very warm. Every detail is carefully thought out and shows a great sense of style. The property and outdoor facilities are simply fantastic. The spacious terrace, the magnificent pool area and the breathtaking view of the wooded hills of Périgord guarantee absolute tranquility and relaxation. The evening atmosphere, and especially the view of the landscape, remains unforgettable. The location is also excellent: quiet and surrounded by nature, while being close to Sarlat and the most beautiful sites of the Dordogne. The on-site assistance deserves special praise. The contact person was extremely friendly, helpful and always available. From our arrival to our departure, we felt very well received and taken care of. This house combines exceptional architecture, high-end services, an idyllic setting and impeccable service. For us, it is one of the most beautiful holiday accommodations we have ever known. We give five stars without hesitation and would love to come back!
A fantastic week at the villa. We were lucky enough to get a last minute booking when travel restrictions were listed. We were slightly anxious about travelling in these times but always felt safe and welcomed be the locals. We're so pleased we did come! The villa is very well equipped and Frederic was so informative and helpful. The massive selling point for us was the gorgeous pool and gardens as well as the stunning setting and amazing views from every angle! We spent many nights eating cheese and drinking wine while watching the sun set and then gazing at the star-rider sky. This is definitely one of the most beautiful parts of France we've been too. We enjoyed the local morning's and night's markets in Duras, kayaking down the Dropt river and would recommend visiting local town/villages like Eymet, Villeréal and others mentioned in the guide. St Emilion is also a family favorite and is a must-visit! We now have a car full of wine! Thanks for an amazing week! We hope to be back soon.
Can't believe we have to leave our new home in Najac. The château is magnificent—striking and enormous, yet cozy and welcoming; an easy walk to the lovely village, yet splendidly private and quiet on its own hill. Amazing views, spotlessly clean, superbly equipped and with the best pool we've ever had! The only thing that matches the château and setting is the warm, attentive and super-knowledgeable welcome and help from Henrietta and her team. They helped us to make the most of our stay. Those extra-mile touches made all the difference and we really appreciated them. We loved getting to know this part of France, which seems to combine so many of the wonderful things from the more 'discovered' regions, adding a twist or 2, delivered with a smile.
I just wanted to thank you for providing us with the perfect spot for our vacation week in Provence. We loved everything about your home, the surroundings and the people. As it was my first time to Provence, we had an elaborate plan to visit Aix, Arles, Avignon etc and whereas I am sure they are fantastic places too, however, we ended up exploring the lovely mountain villages surrounding your home and loved every minute. Thank you for leaving the details regarding bike rental and horse-back riding, in the end it was a bit too hot to do either but maybe next time?! The house was great in every way and we loved every attention to detail and your impeccable taste. Again, thank you for a wonderful holiday, we do hope that some day we can return.
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.
A fantastic holiday and would love to return. The night market at Lacapelle a real highlight as well as Parc en Ciel, kayaking at Vitrac and of course the pool.
Dear Philippe, thank you for being such a wonderful host to your amazing villa. This place is lovely – perfect for a family get away to relax and have fun in the perfectly sized pool and also to get out and see the fabulous city of Béziers – great location not far from shops, architecture or beaches, this villa is pretty amazing. P.S. Jesse wishes he could stay!! He loved the pool very much. Thanks also for the pastries and wine. We will miss “Kevin” the Peacock.
We had a very enjoyable week in your comfortable and charming house. We can recommend the dairy products from the local farmer and one of our favourite places to visit was Chinon. We have also discovered Savennieres wine which is a real treat. We would like to come back soon!
´Perfect. A dream house, eccentric and authentic, obviously much loved, so happy to live in, even during the grey week. We’ve had a wonderful couple of weeks
Very much enjoyed our stay at Maison des Combes. Thank you to Karine, Pascal and M Michelin for providing such an enjoyable holiday!
Epic! Manoir Gascon is epic! Beautiful house and situation with magnificent pool. Thanks for sharing it with us.
The house was great, very clean and incredibly maintained Nothing to say, everything was perfect.
Thank you so much for the very warm welcome, all the ‘goodies’ you provided and of course the use of your very well equipped Loft. It felt like we had always known you (perhaps because we’re all Northerners!). The Italian restaurant in the village is great to be able to walk to. A few degrees below 38 would have been preferable, but out of your control! Good luck with the house.
