The château has been a fabulous place to stay - a unique combination of grandeur and homely comfort. The facilities are superb and typically rural French. The owner received us graciously into her home with a warm welcome. Jean-Marie was a marvel - really helpful and quick to respond to any requests we had. The local area has so much history all around yet there is something for everyone. Châteaux galore everywhere. Would definitely recommend canoeing the Dordogne - if you can manage the trek to canoe past Castelnaud that would be an amazing trip - we set off from St Cyprien which was great too, but the views past Castelnaud would be amazing. We have been lucky with the weather so the children (and adults) have had lots of fun by the pool. Thank you for your hospitality.
Thank you so much for our wonderful week’s stay in this beautiful house and delightful garden. Such a delight to return to after a long day out. The swimming pool area is great, especially for the children. You have been so kind and helpful in suggesting wonderful places to visit! Thank you for making our week’s stay so perfect. We wish you all the best with your next venture.
We were a group of nine friends and spent 4 nights at this gorgeous house. I don't know where to start, everything was just perfect: The pool, the view, the furnishing, the comfy beds... it's heaven on earth. Sandie and her husband are very lovely people and amazing hosts. I recommend booking the catering option - the food is great and the chocolate fudge cake is to die for. We will definitely come back.
Watch out, as we are definitely starting to feel at home at beautiful Lamolene and surrounds. Thank you so, so much for our wonderful, special break.
A perfect catalyst to one of our best weeks Our second trip at this beautiful home and once again, we had a ball!
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!
Charming hosts, dream castle, superb stay! We had a great week, delighted to have been one of the first guests! Thanks to Frédérique and Philippe.
Beautiful house. Great quality equipment. Attentive staff (Anne, Nadine and Thierry). Lovely pool. Great location for visiting lots of places. Everything is a great standard.
A great discovery. Ideally located close to the Dordogne and Sarlat, Ferme de la Riviere 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. Only one regret, not having had time to visit their other rentals located a stone's throw from La Borie.
We had a fabulous week! We really made the most of the pool and outdoor kitchen and there was nothing we needed which wasn’t there. It was hot - so mostly we went out early and got back to get in the pool/shade. It’s a great location for exploring the local area and we loved Monaco, Nice, Lorgues and St Maxime. Thank you for hosting us and thanks to G for her help too.
Superb property with all the comforts. We spent a week in July 2023 with family and loved the beauty of this area. The infinity pool, the jacuzzi and the ping-pong table delighted the children. The wooded park offers a beautiful space for relaxation and walking. Thank you again for Francesca’s welcome and services!
We enjoyed another lovely week at Le Clapier. We love the house! It has the perfect position in a lovely village – full of character and very comfortable. We explored the well-marked local walks this time.
We had a fabulous time staying in this very stylish and well equipped house, enjoying both the heat wave and the incredible storm. We loved the swimming pool and the pool and table tennis tables. We visited Vaison la Romaine and Avignon and enjoyed both of them. The market in Nyons was very impressive and very busy, so it was worth going early. We loved eating at the resto des arts in Nyons particulary enjoying the ravioli. Thank you for letting us stay at your lovely house it is quite stunning.
Thank you for a wonderful stay at your villa Philippe! We enjoyed our stay here very much. It was so relaxing and peaceful and we loved the family pool time! We are delighted that we saw some of the local towns and countryside, which are all stunning. Thank you for the delicious pastries and your kindness. Merci.
A beautiful castle Hello Isabelle, I would like to thank you very much for our stay at the castle. We had a wonderful holiday. The castle is beautiful and you were a very kind hostess and full of respect for us. Especially, it was an honor to have seen the library. I found it fascinating and with a special atmosphere even without books. Your father was a very important man. Thank you for explaining. (And thank you, too, for your patience with my French! I really enjoyed talking to you.). Of course, I would very much like to return to the castle, maybe for my birthday next year in July. Very friendly.
Difficult to put into words how beautiful this place is! We’ve seen deer, fox and eagles. We've had a lovely week, spent more time together than of late and it’s been memorable. Thank you.
We have had a great quiet stay in your house! We went one day to Carcassonne by car and visit the beautiful area. The pool is great, we will miss it!
Steven and Bruce have a fantastic place and they really went the extra mile to make our stay totally enjoyable. We've been staying at places in France for 20 or so years and we always come back fairly pleased, but perhaps with one or two thoughts about how something or other could have been better, but I think this is the first time we've come back and been unable to think of anything that was less than perfect.
We have enjoyed two wonderful week here with cloudless skies and beautiful evenings. Amongst our favourite outings were nearby Villedieu, a beautiful spot for a lunchtime stop at the cafe du centre or the exceptional bistro de Villedieu, we also visited Gigondas with its magical views and charming square, Vaison la romaine is a stunning town especially the old part. We also enjoyed wondering around Nyons following the route through the spectacular medieval arches, chapel and church.
Thank you, dear Philippe. We are very grateful for your kindness and care. The villa, pool and your kindness have been wonderful. With thanks. This was our last big family trip. It's been fantastic and eventful, we've done it all.
What an incredible home base! We felt so fortunate to return here every day after days spent exploring the beautiful towns of Lot and the Dordogne. We wondered whether we might find Castelnau-Montratier to be a little too quiet, but were always grateful for the respite. The house and its quiet luxury hiding behind the unassuming little gate was a constant surprise to us and we loved every minute. Many thanks to Barbara for quickly responding to our every query. We are already wondering when we'll return! P.S. Viking chess is our new favourite game!
Once again there are no words that can really explain what a wonderful time we have had and how fantastic the Loft and the grounds are. Your hospitality is more than we could have asked for. Our only complaint is that we couldn’t stay here permanently as it’s difficult to leave the place! Until the next time ( and yes, there will be a next time ), au revoir - not goodbye.
The food wa lovely. Can't fault the service. We had a lovely time thank you.
We have all had an absolutely beautiful week here at Le Chanlie. A truly special house in a magical setting. We will be back ! The pool area was such fun for us all and the bedrooms so relaxing.
Many thanks for a wonderful stay. You have made the place very comfortable and welcoming and so safe for children. So many interesting things to discover in the region to. In one word it has been the 'perfect' holiday for the whole family (10 of us!). We do hope to return, 'donc je vous dis à bientôt et mille mercis'.
The pool was amazing and the weather was nice. It was wonderful 5/5 would love to be staying longer. The pool was amazing. The beds are so nice.
We have had a fantastic stay in Rieux-Minervois thanks to your kind and generous hospitality! The Loft is beautiful and filled with everything we needed to have a comfortable and relaxing holiday. The kitchen felt modern and easy to cook in; the beds were extremely comfortable and the pool and garden were splendidly kept. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful property. It was so comfortable and relaxing, with enough space for peace whenever we needed it.
We have had a wonderful stay. Eric and Dominique are fabulous hosts. The house is brilliantly equipped and we had everything we need. A great area of France, lots of lovely villages and restaurants. Thank you very much.
