Les Granels
Property review
I just wanted to write to say how much we enjoyed our holiday at Les Granels. The Villa was everything we hoped it would be , and beautifully equipped, and an added bonus was the wonderfully stocked playroom, which as we had 5 children under 7 was an absolute joy.
I would like to say that Karri was an absolute gem, efficient , full of good humour ,endlessly patient with our Grandchildren who loved her so much that they cried when she said goodbye to us .She really made the holiday, and enabled our rather exhausted children (their parents )to have a much needed few hours off. We are really grateful to her.
The other great joy was the meals that Carol and Andy cooked for us, just in case future guests want cooking done whilst they are there.

Well, anyway, our stay is still wonderful. Your house is so beautiful that we really enjoy it very much! Spending lazy hours by the pool, having delicious dinners in the garden... Once again thank you so much and have a great stay in Provence!

The Garden Cottage
Property review
The cottage is exactly as described. It oozes charm, character and good taste. It was spotlessly clean.The large swimming pool and patio area is beautiful, private and well maintained.
The cottage is very conveniently located,being a pleasant walk or a very short drive to Thonac village. There one will find a good pizza restaurant/bar, a hotel with both a garden and indoor restaurant and a small supermarket. Two large supermarkets, pharmacy and petrol station are just five minutes drive away at Montignac. This is a very nice small town to visit and where one buys tickets for Lascaux.
The cottage is perfectly situated to visit the numerous places of interest in the area, and the owners have provided an information brochure of local markets, events and places to visit.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 week stay and found the owners discreet, charming and helpful. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending the property to couples who want a completely relaxing and comfortable holiday.

We had a great time at the house - everything went smoothly. We also spent a fair bit of time exploring the general area although we always ended up back at the large table with a glass of rose taking in the view over the vines come end of day!

Mas Saint Cernin
Property review
Cannot say enough about how relaxing and wonderful was our holiday at Mas Saint Cernin: from the quality of the accommodation, to the fantastic location, the brilliant pool and the warm and helpful welcome from John and Lesley. Three generations spanning the under ten to the over seventies loved every moment of our stay. We all enjoyed the pool and the grounds with all the interesting things to see and do on the doorstep.
We aim to return but think we might want to book early to do so!

Les Averries
Property review
We have all very much enjoyed our stay at Les Averries. The cottage is beautiful, charming and comfortable in all ways. The gardens, magnificent. The hosts, most gracious. We also enjoyed the pool.
The lovely village, a short walk or bicycle ride away, has all that one might need.
This is a perfect place for unhurried days and visits to the many nearby attractions, there is much to see and do for all ages. Young and old enjoyed the magnificent chateau. We do so hope to return.

Le Manoir Plantier de Sarlat
Property review
Your house is delightful, we felt right at home. Your professional staff took very good care of us when we needed them. We loved exploring the Dordogne, and though we’ve seen a lot of France this area was by far our favorite. It was especially nice to relax in at home on the odd rainy day. Also being so close to the town made our dining out extra fun ! Hic !

Pure France review
I just wanted to thank you very much for the excellent service I have received booking my French villa holiday for next summer. After the initial disappointment with Villa Vidal being booked privately, you were then able to suggest similar alternatives and answered all my availability questions promptly and accurately, even managing to quickly source a photo of the pool area for Le Pres du Pont. We are now looking forward to our holiday next summer and will highly recommend Pure France to others looking for a similar holiday.

May I say how much we enjoyed our stay at Manoir de Rouffillac. A perfect holiday stay, and Daryl the property manager was excellent. This was our second holiday with Pure France - the best properties and excellent care and friendly service. We wouldn't use anyone else for a superb French holiday home. Thank you so much, and warm regards.

Mas de Lozanne
Property review
Lovely stay, house in great location. Enjoyed Palm Beach Club at Les Vagues. Altogether a great week.
Mas Challignac
Property review
The property is huge and very well equipped - even for 2 families. The kids spent their time in and out of the pool and playing on the trampoline in the grounds. With the kids content, the adults were all happy relaxing by the bbq. The house is quite remote - on the plus side there's no noise apart from the natural sounds of the countryside and the views are stunning - but it does mean you need a car to go anywhere. The owners are the most hospitable people you could meet and truly enjoy having guests to stay. The surrounding area is very pretty - there are some lovely quiet and clean lake beaches within 15 mins drive. We would strongly recommend this property to families or groups of friends who enjoy relaxing in lovely surroundings.

Les Bambous
Property review
We enjoyed a fantastic couple of weeks here as a family of six including two boys aged five and two. 'Les Bambous' is a very clean and well equipped house (with Wifi) owned by very welcoming and caring owners. We enjoyed relaxing and playing in their beautiful garden and clean, well-maintained pool. The village itself has lots of quiet tracks winding through the local vineyards which our tractor- and wildlife-mad boys loved exploring as well as the outstanding swimming pool in nearby Servian. Many happy days were also spent building sandcastles and looking for fish and crabs at the spacious and family friendly beach in Vias-Plage only 25 minutes away. The owners have done a lot of research and left folders of most of the local attractions which also pointed us in the right direction. We had a great holiday and would not hesitate to return.

We had a lovely week enjoying the beautiful house and pool and breakfast and barbecues outside. We had highly variable weather but that enabled us to discover Perigueux and St Emilion. We highly recommend Aubeterre and the bar Brasserie in Verteillac La Calice. Many thanks.
Collinson family
Les Marquises
Property review
Our family had a fabulous week at your property. The house, the region, the food, the wine - all were typically perfect and in keeping with expectations. Additionally, PureFrance.com left no stone unturned and precisely described the property in all its detail - a comforting insurance we have come to rely upon over our last three holidays. For a family or couple wishing to see this area of Provence, I could not recommend it more.

Les Marquises
Property review
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.

Maison Saint-Julien

Beautiful and spacious villa with plenty of balconies to enjoy peaceful countryside views! Spent a lot of time relaxing by the pool but thoroughly enjoyed repeated trips to Cave Cros and La Bateliere restaurants in Capestang itself. A wonderful week has gone by quickly and we're sorry to leave.

Mas Challignac
Property review
The house is well equipped with everything you need and the secluded pool areas are perfect for large families. We found the table tennis table invaluable especially when it rained. The house has so much character that everyone had fallen in love with it by the end of the week and all the girls were asking why we haven't got a house like this! The good news is that we are going back with the girls and some friends. Great place... loved it!!

La Maison Pradinels
Property review
Great stay, very well equipped house with plenty of space. Lots to do around the area and some worthwhile trips further afield - Pezenas - lovely town to wander around, Beziers for the cathedral and bridge, not forgetting Carcassonne - definitely worth the drive.

Les Marquises
Property review
You don’t need us to tell you what a beautiful house this is, and the bath with a view indeed.
We didn’t eat out much as the super markets were so convenient and the kitchen well equipped. We arrived in a heat wave, not complaining though! It was amazing and the wonderful pool helped us cool off.
The children took their push bikes over the back of the vineyards to the cycle path and biked into Nyons, we also walked it which was most pleasant.
As regards places of interest , we took ideas from the house book as it was too hot to visit the tourist information centre during opening hours and most of our exploring was done in the evenings.

Mas de la Rivière
Property review
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.
Château Garonne
Property review
We had a splendid family gathering. We have played lots of games and read lots of books. The weather has been a little cruel to us which did not hamper our ability to enjoy your lovely swimming pool and tennis court. We have had some excellent visits (St Emilion, Chateau de la Riviere, Bordeaux) and some great meals out (Libourne, Montagne, Chez Carles) .. so many thanks for all the tips. Thank you for an excellent holiday with best wishes

Grand Domaine Le Dor
Property review
It really is a magnificent collection of buildings - and you have restored it wonderfully. With every facility. Everyone loved their stay and the open countryside and sweeping views made us feel on top of the world. It suited all ages. We have enjoyed exploring this lovely part of France with the contrast of wheat, sunflowers and green everywhere. Thank you again for letting us stay in your wonderful house.

A very belated note to say thanks very much for your help in making our stay in Les Rocans go smoothly. We had a great time and loved how relaxed it was.
We were considering rebooking for next year however Mum has just announced she will be taking a larger place to celebrate her 70th in next summer, so the good news is she will pick up the bill (!) but the bad news is we can't stay with you again next year. We will however certainly bear Les Rocans in mind for the future as we had a thoroughly relaxing time.

An amazing and wonderful place to stay!
We only had a week but it was a very special week, our first time in the Dordogne was made into an extra special one by staying in this fairytale cottage with the owners providing everything that you would want or need for a brilliant holiday they were the perfect hosts!
The cottage was perfect, clean and very comfortable not to mention the pool which was an added bonus we would be very happy to recommend this beautiful cottage and location for a relaxing holiday!
Maison Calavon
Property review
The house perfectly matches the details and is even nicer than on the photos! The owners who live next door maintain it with great care. High quality facilities. Spacious interiors, very clean and decorated with taste. The outside kitchen is well equipped, the pool safe and heated (very appreciated in September). A 5000 m2 garden located in the Lubéron with an ideal climate. Caseneuve is a very good base to explore the region, the perched villages, close to the Provencal Colorado. We highly recommend this house for one or several families for very good holidays! Thank you to the owners. See you soon.

Bellinger Party
Domaine de Nérige
Property review
We recently spent two weeks at the property, with six other friends. The whole place has been beautifully decorated with bright, fresh colours, along with the two, lavishly supplied kitchens. Most of the bedrooms have their own sitting room and full ensuite bathroom. We had the yellow bedroom which overlooked the courtyard and the mountains. The inside of the property is truly as attractive as the pictures on the website. There are two large sitting rooms, including a big screen TV. The outdoor pool and dining area are well maintained and a joy to use. The very generous sized patio, overlooking the Pyrénées, is wired for sound and can be lit up at night, for outdoor dining and dancing. The owner suggested, one night, that we try a local restaurant, call Gayda. If you stay at the property, you must go to the Gayda for dinner. On Sunday night they will present you with a truly gourmet meal, plus all the wines to complement the five star meal, and all for around 25 Euros per head. (We went three times). Everything you need for a fabulous holiday is provided at the property. You'll love it.

Richard and Meryl are the greatest hosts. Very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Love Poppy!
The Tournesol gite is home from home, comfortable, everything you would want is here. Location is stunning, great views. Loved our spot under the walnut tree.
Highlights - Monflanquin, Saint Cirq Lapopie, Auvillar and Condom - Bourg de Visa was a fantastic central hub for visiting all these places.
Thank you Meryl and Richard for a great holiday. And Poppy of course.

Château Périgord
Property review
The chateau 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.

Mas de Lozanne
Property review
Very easy decision to come back again next year, after spending a great couple of weeks here in August 2016. Mas de Lozanne has an excellent outdoor area – large pool, a terrace that’s in the shade all day, 2 hammocks and ample space for table tennis and badminton. All the facilities work well, inc the WiFi and especially the air conditioning which is not only very effective but remarkably quiet. Plus Ina and Dominic (both English speakers) are only a text away to come and help if something goes wrong. The house itself is classic, roomy French farmhouse equipped with all mod cons – comfy lounge with all the British freeview channels, high ceilings and picture postcard views from the bedroom windows. And on top of all that is its brilliant location – there’s a 10 minute leisurely walk through a vineyard into the beautiful old historic town of Pezenas.
D Robertson
The Garden Cottage
Property review
The cottage is beautifully kept and has a gorgeous interior, but what really impressed us was it’s tranquil location within the owners grounds, and the peaceful location of the swimming pool where one can laze of a sunny afternoon or two.
The cottage is approximately a 5-10 minute walk into the local village where there is a little shop selling everything to cater for your needs, and a hotel restaurant that serve lovely meals at a very reasonable price. This must be tried at least once during your visit. If you fancy a larger shop there are two large supermarkets within a 10 minute drive on the road to Montignac. Montignac is a beautiful town with lovely riverside restaurants. The cottage is ideally located to visit the local sights, whether it be a château such as the local Château de Losse or Château Les Milandes with its beautiful gardens, or pretty towns and villages, our particular favourites being Saint Leon, La Roque Gageac and Domme.
Beautiful blue skies every day with temperatures hitting 36 degrees one day. This gave us a perfect excuse to spend some days lounging around by the pool and recharging in the stunning surroundings. So to sum up, with a combination of the cottage, the weather and the perfect hosts we had an amazing week and left feeling pretty sad. However, we know that we will be visiting again, for longer next time as there was still quite a lot we didn’t get to see in this beautiful part of France. It was honestly one of the best holidays we have ever had. Thank you so much, until the next time.

A perfect place for a family stay. A large well equipped property that is decorated with great taste. There is something for all generations both inside and out including indoor and outdoor games for children. A great television room with a large choice of DVDs for both children and adults. Magnificent garden – great for aperitifs and barbeques and a beautiful swimming pool. The house was immaculate when we arrived. Our visit was unforgettable and we will certainly be coming back.

Simmons family - Melboure, Australia
Maison Charvin
Property review
We are three couples in our 60's from Colorado in the U.S. who enjoy travel, especially in Europe. Over the past three years we have traveled to Italy, Portugal, Spain and France. We would define ourselves as "independent" travelers enjoying the process of researching destinations, places to stay, renting cars and getting out to see a bigger world. That of course means getting lost from time to time, finding restaurants that are fabulous and some that are so-so, and booking houses or B&Bs.
My top five reasons for loving Maison Charvin include:
5. If after traveling to many parts of the world you find that "smaller can be better" as I have, Maison Charvin (MC) is a great fit. Located in the village of Montlaur where there is a small grocery store and a couple other small shops, people are friendly and you feel safe. It isn't too far from a number of good destinations.
4. Four bedrooms, all ensuite. Since we are no longer in our 20's we prefer some comforts and conveniences! Beds were comfortable and each couple had their own quiet space. We prefer renting one extra bedroom so, as happened on this trip, if one person gets sick or has jet lag and waking up at 4:00 am there is an extra room.
3. Fully stocked kitchen. I would start looking for some odd item like a garlic press and think I doubt there is one, and lo and behold there always was what we needed! I've never stayed at a place that had a kitchen as well equipped.
2. Value - incredible value for a week's stay. We stayed during the lower season rate, but looking at the rates, it would be good value at anytime of the year.
1. The owner, Sharon. From the very start of communications she was helpful and timely in her email responses to my inquiries. And always with a great sense of humor. Earlier I mentioned we had some illness. Sharon took my wife and I to her doctor, waited with us, translated for us, and went to the pharmacy to be sure we received the correct medications. It was easy to see that she wants her clients to have the best experience possible.
If southwestern France small towns are in your future, be sure to check out Maison Charvin!

Villa Peymeinade
Property review
As we drive north towards home we are reflecting over so many happy memories during this past week. Your beautiful home so full of character and comfort certainly made all the difference to our holiday. We loved it so much I am almost embarrassed to say we only ventured out once for a half day outing (to the Lake!). We were all so happy just to be around the pool. We took full advantage of everything you offered.... nightly boules, both upper terraces, BBQs, table tennis, the gorgeous private patio outside our room and all that the pool area had to offer etc etc. Dave loved Sonos (but never roused Alexa) and the path along the canal for him to run on...and the challenge of the gates which were fine in the end. The three grandchildren, 2 1/2, 14 months and 5 months loved it all. In fact the one year old took her first steps in your front garden!
It was a very special holiday for us all and we just wanted to say a huge thank you for opening your home to us.

The gite is in just the most beautiful location and couldn't be bettered, with it's 360 degree views, sunshine (well, weather permitting!) on all sides and glorious views of the countryside. The bird song while having breakfast or lunch was a delight.
Highlights of the week include an amazing 4 course meal for €15 (make sure you are hungry!) and an afternoon's cycle along the canal at Moissac. We came quite early in the season so couldn't sample many of the restaurants but we are looking forward to the opportunity on our next visit!
Thank you Richard and Meryl (and Poppy) for being so welcoming and such excellent hosts....and Richard for guidance on beautiful walks straight from the gite.

Thank you for the opportunity to have another wonderful holiday in this beautiful villa. Everything has just been perfect !( came prepared this year with my « adult basic piano lessons » and loved the chance to try and play again. Not so sure it was as pleasable for those listening!.
Thanks to Frederic and Natasha for all they do to make the 2 weeks go so smoothly.

Hi, just writing to say what a brilliant time we had in your château last week. Thank you for being excellent hosts and preparing such lovely meals for us.

Absolutely stunning villa "decor magnifique" (good job Tracey). Beautiful pool with views to die for, the most idyllic holiday ever! Tracey and Tony were fantastic hosts, very welcoming and great company! We had such fabulous weather and had the great experience of watching the vines harvested. Being the wine and cheese lovers that we are we really couldn't have hoped for a more perfect location. Thank you T & T, we will be recommending this to all our loved ones and will most definitely be back to see you.

Maison Dusire

We had a great time at Mason Dusire and particularly enjoyed the tranquil setting. The house offers complete privacy in stunning grounds, surrounded by beautiful countryside. It's clearly a well loved and well maintained property and in many ways is even prettier than the pictures. If you're looking for a large property that is excellently furnished in rural France sitting amongst rolling hills and pretty villages, this is the house for you.

A fantastic stay in a beautiful villa! Whilst parts of France may lay dormant, this region has tons of activities to offer Canoeing, walking tours of picturesque Pezanas, renting bikes at Lac du Saligou and if you're slightly odd a cracking gym 'area gym' just down the road.
Loft du Vigneron

THE LOFT!!! - Undoubtedly the best accommodation we have ever stayed at in France. A great concept realised in every detail. Wonderful hospitality on our arrival and throughout our stay. Your new B&B concept is beyond our imagination and will be utterly unique on completion. We wish you all the very best of luck and sincerely hope that we will be able to enjoy it sometime in the future. It was a delight to meet you both. Our very best wishes.

Les Jumelles
Property review
To others who get to enjoy Les Jumelles: this home was like a true little paradise for my husband and I and our two nephews. It is very well appointed with all the amenities you will need. We vacationed during mid-June and found that the house was very fresh with a lovely breeze. A lovely touch was having a freshly cut rose in each bedroom upon our arrival. We found ourselves enjoying the home and grounds so much, we tried to have all our dinners (suppers) here. Our hosts were very friendly yet non-intrusive and provided us with wonderful suggestions in terms of sites to visit while in the area. We were taking a day to go back to Paris and both owners helped provide us a sound plan as to best use our time there for our nephews who had never been. We will recommend this destination to friends and relatives for sure and even try to com back in the not too distant future. Merci.
PS: The shower is great but ask for the trick to turn it on!

Maison Richelieu
Property review
We have used Pure France and other similar companies over many years, but I do not believe I have heard how highly rated they thought this particular property was - ever! As a result of the standard of accommodation, gardens and the local surrounding area, we are already trying to see if there is anything which can beat it for next year, especially for standards of finish and value for money (if you can recommend anything similar, please let us know)? I work in the construction industry as a design manager and can see someone has spent a lot of time and effort in getting the best out of this large old building, bringing it up to a high standard with well considered interior design - obviously the owner has considered in a lot of detail. Please pass on our thanks for being able to use the property.

We had a wonderful stay and could not fault the property which was a joy to experience.
The interior was spotless and modern, the kitchen was well equipped and easy to cook in, the open plan living and dining space relaxing and the bedrooms extremely comfortable. The views outside were truly beautiful and it was perfect to make use of the decking area for either sun bathing or eating outside, not to mention the infinity pool for cooling down in. All in all a very relaxing stay.

Pomerade Farmhouse
Property review
Pomerade farmhouse was wonderful - a home from home. A beautiful and extremely peaceful location with wonderful views of the Pyrenees. The house is very well equipped, furnished with great attention to detail, beds comfortable with great linen (my major issue with houses we have rented in the past) and well managed with the lovely Annette really going out of her way to help us with anything we needed. A wonderful break. A visit to the Pic Du Midi observatory with the children was well worth the short drive.

Château Beaulieu
Property review
In the heart of the Dordogne, just 10 minutes from the beautiful cathedral city of Perigueux is the stunning château. A 16th century château, lovingly restored by owners Jose and Diana Serrano, there are just 6 rooms on offer, most set out as suites and all offering luxury bathrooms with Jacuzzi. The venue - set in its own 40 acre grounds - is perfect for romantic retreats, but could also the ideal base for a company looking for a senior Executive's retreat. Food - breakfast and evening meals - are first-rate, in terms of both quality and quantity, and the owners are on hand to deliver exceptional customer service.

My husband and I spent our honeymoon at Chateau Picol in early September. What a magical place. Absolutely beautiful house – everything you could need and the heated pool was just wonderful. The owners were very helpful and friendly, advising us on where to visit and how to get to places. On their recommendation we went to a fab market in the local village and borrowed two bicycles to ride around the local countryside. A great local supermarket about a 20 min walk away and the chateau is within easy reach of Poitiers. We hope to return one day.

Château Mézard
Property review
Château Mézard is a stunning property and certainly set the backdrop for a very memorable family holiday. I can clearly see why you previously spoke so fondly of the château. The holiday was intended as a special celebration with close family. As such we were mixed in our ages and interests but the château provided the perfect setting to cater for all of our interests, from the little ones down to the adults amongst us. The children had tremendous fun in and around the pool. I personally took great pleasure in strolling around the beautiful grounds and taking in some of the breathtaking scenery. Laurent, Didier and Rachel did their upmost to ensure that we had a wonderful time and nothing was too much trouble for them.

A wonderful, peaceful spot for a family holiday. We were with 3 childrean, a 12 yr old, two 16 yr olds, all boys. The house is perfectly appointed for a family with all necessities available. The pool was the focus of our holiday at the house and is an ideal size and very safe for young families. It was our first experience of the area and the local towns are very interesting historically and culturally. The street performances in the evening at Sarlat and the square in Domme were particularly entertaining. This was our third time in France and the best experience of the 3. Highly recommended.

The property is just lovely- the views from the terrace and the master bath really are stunning. The kitchen was a pleasure to use ,everything one needed was provided. I know you did nt arrange this but the weather was superb-sun and very warm temps every day. It was a pleasure to return to the pool and cool off with a view of the vineyards! We even got to see the grape harvest in the fields directly behind the pool! We found the location perfect -close to Nyons but super quiet and private. This charming home is cleverly decorated and very comfortable. I also found booking with Pure France wonderful- fast replies, easy payment and most helpful responses to any questions I had. Thank you again for the opportunity to stay at this unique property and to explore a beautiful part of Provence. A la prochaine!

This has been our first villa holiday & you have certainly spoilt us for the future! We don't know how Maison Albarels could be bettered. You have done a fantastic job in converting your old family home into such a lovely villa.
Many thanks for your hospitality, especially your wine and juice on arrival and your lovely cherries - and also for trying to sort out the TV for us to watch the World Cup in English... Even if England were rubbish!
We loved Carcassonne - we went once by car and once by walking along the Canal du Midi at Pezens.. Also Château Pennaultier - a mini Versailles - was impressive and helpful staff in the restaurant/shop. Special mention to the lovely lady in the shop next door -always smiling and helpful even if our French was a bit limited!
