We were not too familiar with the region, but since we live in a highly fast-paced city, we knew we wanted a tranquil and somewhat less-touristy vacation spot surrounded by nature. Through an amazing agency, we were able to lease the cottage for two weeks in late August and had an amazing time there. The property dates back to 1750 and is fully well-renovated - every detail has been taken into consideration so one is able to enjoy the experience of staying in an authentic French country house, but with modern amenities that enhance the original character of the property, rather than detract from it. The town and the people are very charming and there are restaurants, cafés, a grocery store, shops, butcher shops, etc. and an excellent choice of patisseries and boulangeries, which my husband happily frequented every morning in order to bring back fresh breakfast goodies! There is a weekly market in the town square, just a 5-minute drive from the house selling amazing produce and other artisanal delights! The town is within a comfortable drive from beautiful sites in neighboring Beynac, Sarlat and Bergerac, not counting other small picturesque places you find on the way. And if you haven't done much research, fret not because the owners of the home have compiled quite an impressive binder of information with all of the popular attractions and must-see places in the area. I do not over-exaggerate when I say the house is extremely well-equipped as if it were our own home! When we were not out sightseeing during the morning, we were downstairs preparing food in the kitchen, which may seem small in the photos, but it is spacious and the layout is wonderful - the oven and stove are ideal for seasoned cooks, there is a full-size dishwasher and tons of pots, pans, utensils, gadgets and appliances - all in superb condition, so we wanted for nothing. Overall, we had an excellent stay at Maison Bourg Cales, which I would highly recommend to anyone in search of an idyllic, quiet getaway in the beautiful French countryside.
Nous sommes une famille de 3 à 78 ans et nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour au Château Périgord cette semaine. Nous avons été fascinés par la beauté de sa rénovation et de sa décoration. Tous les couples de notre famille avaient une belle chambre et la literie était confortable. Le jardin fleuri, avec sa lavande parfumée et sa piscine rafraîchissante était un vrai bonheur. Les enfants ont joué aux boules sur le gravier, au football sur la pelouse parfaitement tondue et ont passé de nombreuses heures dans la piscine. Nous avons préféré cuisiner nos propres repas dans la grande cuisine de style médiéval (car nous aimons tous cuisiner) et avons dîné à une longue table dans la cour. Château Périgord a tellement d'endroits pour s'asseoir et profiter de l'atmosphère, de belles fonctionnalités et de jeux qu'il n'était pas nécessaire de faire de nombreux déplacements ailleurs. Nous avons fait du vélo dans la région et avons fait du jogging sur les collines, puis nous nous sommes rafraîchis dans la piscine. Merci pour ce séjour fantastique et relaxant!
Nous sommes de retour d'une superbe semaine à la Maison Soulette à Thézan-les-Béziers. La maison était exactement comme sur les photos et la description, parfaite pour notre famille. Beaucoup de chambres et de salles de bains, une belle cuisine et un salon confortable. Les terrasses, le jardin et la vue étaient tous magnifiques. Le temps était ensoleillé et chaud, nous avons donc passé de nombreuses journées à paresser au bord de la piscine. Nos filles ont profité pleinement de la piscine chauffée et se sont beaucoup amusées à jouer au tennis de table.
Accueil chaleureux, vue splendide, calme absolu, site idéal pour visiter la région.
Fantastic holiday! The villa is wonderful and we loved the garden and pool - and everyone was so helpful. It's great that Pézenas is within walking distance, there's such a good atmosphere there at night.
Nous y avons passé deux semaines agréables. La propriété est magnifique et le temps aura été clément. De magnifiques paysages et lieux à visiter.
Just back from a week's stay at Villa La Baronne. I understand this is a newly renovated property and it is very clear that no expense has been spared on the project. It is a large property that could suit more than one family or a group of friends and can sleep up to 14 people. Every detail has been lovingly considered and stylishly executed. Bedrooms are beautifully appointed with elegant furnishings and comfortable beds. The house has been designed to offer endless activities both inside and out. We were lucky with the weather for October and so were able to use the huge and stunning Swimming Pool, the Jacuzzi, Pétanque pitch and the specially installed Croquet Lawn. In the evening, we took advantage of the cinema and games room, playing pool, table football, ping pong, chess and darts. A brilliant house for families with teens! There is even a huge TV, especially for use with games consoles. The house has a beautiful kitchen, fully equipped with every gadget you could require. Although we didn't use it, there is also a BBQ for evenings on the huge terrace. The property is situated on the banks of the River Tarn and is surrounded by beautiful mature trees and a large garden. It was a very quick and easy drive from the airport and local amenities for food shopping. The local village, a ten-minute walk away, was very quiet but does have a pleasant local restaurant and within a few minutes by car you can access larger towns. In less than 40 minutes we reached Toulouse centre and the beautiful town of Albi and I gather there are many other attractions within an hour from the property. Although we were briefly aware of a party at the neighbouring property, we found the location very peaceful, with lovely dark skies at night for star gazing. The Wi-Fi was extremely good and there is plenty of parking. All in all we would highly recommend this property, which is of the highest quality. Our thanks to the charming hosts.
Tout ce que vous pourriez demander - une belle maison, une intimité totale, idyllique ! Lorsque nous nous sommes enfin aventurés hors de notre cocon, nous nous sommes promenés dans la magnifique campagne des Corbières. Tant d'endroits à découvrir et tant de vin à déguster. Nous avons tout aimé.
Nous attendions avec impatience notre semaine ici depuis très longtemps (en raison des restrictions de Covid) et nous n'avons pas été déçus ! Le jardin et la maison sont magnifiques et nous avons tous adoré la piscine. Nous aurions pu rester volontiers dans le jardin toute la semaine mais nous nous sommes arrachés du lieu pour voir Saumur, Villandry et Montsoreau. Nos enfants de 5 et 9 ans ont particulièrement apprécié le Châtau et les jardins de Villandry. Merci pour cette semaine merveilleuse et cet accueil chaleureux - le pétillant était si bon et les roses si belles. Nous espérons revenir.
Une merveilleuse semaine au Paradou. Une charmante maison dans une belle partie de la France. Notre famille de cinq personnes a vraiment apprécié notre séjour au Paradou. La maison est charmante avec une excellente cuisine et de magnifiques jardin et piscine. Situé à quelques minutes en voiture de nombreux sites touristiques, notre séjour d'une semaine n'était pas assez long. Le jardin était magnifiquement entretenu. En effet, si nous n'avions pas eu autant envie d'explorer la Provence, nous aurions pu passer une semaine très relaxante en mangeant "al fresco" dans le jardin et en nageant dans la piscine étincelante. Peter, propriétaire très attentif, nous a fourni de précieuses informations sur les environs, les jours de marché de chaque village et des recommandations de restaurants locaux.
Notre séjour a été excellent! Une fantastique maison avec beaucoup d'attraits. Nous sommes tous tombés amoureux du Lac Saint-Cassien. Nous avons visité Cannes et Monte-Carlo qui n'étaient pas si loin. Merci pour ces superbes vacances que nous avons tous appréciées.
Amazing lunch spreads on the big table every day accompanied by tasing of rose and red wine. Stunning BBQ dinners every evening. Sitting by the pool, staring at the view and saying 'wow'! on a regular basis. Kids very happy in the cinema for slightly too many hours! What a stunning pace and what a privilege to have visited here. Thank you. Look forward to returning one day.
Un endroit réellement aussi charmant que ses hôtes. Le sentiment d'excitation que vous ressentez lorsque vous tombez sur un trésor ne nous a pas quittés de toute la semaine. Les photos ne lui rendent pas justice. Nous nous sommes sentis complètement chez nous. Le chant des oiseaux, des enfants rieurs et la vue d'un cerf dans les vastes jardins étaient des moments magiques. Dans une superbe région de la France avec d'innombrables endroits où séjourner. À découvrir.
Heaven on Earth. Our two week stay at Villa Chiavari was an absolute dream; I could not be more enthusiastic in recommending this home to anyone looking to spend their vacation in a veritable paradise. We were 2 couples, 3 children and 1 grandparent and booked an 'off-season' holiday at the end of September. Not long after our arrival we realised a major perk of booking 'off season': uncrowded beaches with absolutely perfect summer weather! Villa Chiavari's spectacular ocean-view infinity pool is surrounded by lounge-chairs and palm trees and bordered by a lush garden... good luck ever tearing yourself away. I should also mention that this lavish pool area is accessible by both the main living quarters of the house and by the bedrooms, which we found extremely convenient for our kids and elderly grandparent. Pool amenities also include a shaded lounge and dining area (also with an ocean view), a barbecue, outdoor refrigerator, pool toys and floats and easy access to a downstairs kitchenette. The grounds at the front of the house include a lush garden, an elevated hammock-hideaway in a quiet shady corner and an outdoor eating area punctuated by a lovely little fountain. The bedrooms are attractively furnished, comfortable and very clean. Five out of six have full attached bathrooms. All bedrooms are equipped with Wi-Fi and air conditioning, as is the main area of the house. The upstairs living/dining/den areas are elegant yet cozy at the same time and the entire back 'wall' of this floor is composed of large sliding glass doors that open onto a beautiful terrace running the length of the entire villa. There is a dining area and lounge on this upper terrace as well! The kitchen has every piece of equipment you can think of and if you're looking for the ultimate in extravagance, the owners will set you up with your own chef. They arranged for us a very personable French cook who prepared truly delicious, fresh meals that even our children were not afraid to eat. Sublime. Speaking of kids, families will find this home very child-safe. There are gates on stairways, the entire property is fenced-in (artfully disguised by beautiful flowers and foliage) and there is a smattering of children's furniture (highchair etc) available for use. We were also really comforted by the fact that the owners of this home are easily reached and are very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be booking again and I encourage anyone interested in perfection to do the same!
Fabulous week learning about wine in an amazing setting. Manoir Lemance is the most wonderful, tranquil and stylish place I have stayed in France and I have stayed in many. The owners have taken great care and attention in restoring the beautiful buildings, choosing the internal furnishings and creating the amazing swimming pool and grounds. We were warmly welcomed and looked after really well all week. The local area is full of amazing villages, great vineyards and beautiful countryside. If you are looking for a very French holiday with the added support of English speaking hosts, in the most beautiful setting, then this is the place for you.
We had a fantastic 2 week stay here, the house and outside space are really lovely and was the perfect setting for our family to spend time together. We explored the area but were always more than happy to return to the house and spend time around the swimming pool relaxing. Thank you
An absolute joy to stay here! The Loft is perfect in every way. Karen and Russell have literally thought of everything. A wonderful kitchen and gorgeous crockery, loads of utensils - it was a joy to use! Undoubtedly for our four teenagers the Loft terrace has been a major hit. Many an hour has been spent lounging around listening to the water trickling along. Totally relaxing. The recommendations were perfect for things to do, restaurants and vineyards to visit. Karen was so right about la Cite at Carcassonne - beautiful. Many thanks for the welcome, the chats and the wine - we will definitely be back!
What an amazing week in a stunning home. The house is exquisitely designed and the attention to detail is fantastic. The views are beautiful and the area so quiet and peaceful. I slept in one of the bedrooms on the ground floor and had the best night's sleep I've had for years… the mattress is heavenly. Not many people can lie in bed watching red squirrels leaping through the surrounding trees can they! The small kitchen area on the ground floor along with the 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms means the whole floor can be very separate and quiet if two families were to share the house. The middle floor is a great entertaining space with a spotless and very modern kitchen with dining / living area leading out to the garden and pool. It was a real treat to have the local bar / restaurant within a short walking distance. It's very easy to sit and enjoy the local wine! The one thing I hadn't bargained for was the abundance of wildlife, although with the roads being so quiet I suppose I shouldn't have been surprised. The red squirrels and deer can be seen from the balconies and fantastic infinity pool overlooking the valley. The cushions for the outdoor furniture are very comfy. Once again, there are various areas to sit / eat and enjoy the garden if different age groups or families stay here. So to sum it all up…a fab holiday home in beautiful surroundings – 10 / 10. PS If you attempt the puzzle in the games cupboard… start it as soon as you arrive because it's tricky but irresistible!
Had a fabulous week at Château Velouse. If you're looking for some time out in splendid surroundings, then I can highly recommend Château Velouse. The château is stunning and there is everything there that you will need. We chose to provide our own cooking during our visit but, I know that Philip and Claire can provide a chef should you require. A great place for a family get together. Highly recommended.
We've had a blissful week here. The house is beautifully and very stylishly renovated and is extremely comfortable and easy to live in. The surrounding environment is stunning. We've loved picking fresh figs straight from the tree breakfast and getting to know the local wines.
Des vacances fabuleuses. Merci beaucoup à Kim. Magnifique maison. Super piscine. Nous recommandons le marché nocturne de Laparade et le restaurant : un déjeuner fabuleux. Je la recommanderais certainement pour un grand groupe. C'est très bien!
Incredible experience, all we could have wished for and more. Perfect location, beautiful villa (and pool) and thoughtful welcome amenities.
We came, we saw and yet again we were conquered! We will return! What a wonderful house and divine swimming pool. Many thanks to Leo, Christine and Constance - such welcoming hosts.
Fantastic stay in a wonderful house. Wonderful house for 7 people. The rooms were very spacious, as was the outside space. Excellent for families I would say. Very warm welcome by the host and pool was attended to throughout. Nice touch of having towels and bed linen changed during the stay for no extra charge (a first). Many thanks to Victoire and Gaby.
A very beautiful setting for our first family trip to Europe! The villa and surrounds were so beautiful that nobody wanted to go anywhere… just sit and relax. A fantastic kitchen helped us feed our big group. Brent and Debbie were very welcoming and made our week very special. Thank you.
Our first trip as a family since 2019 - well worth the wait! A super-relaxing holiday in the beautiful Loft. Thank you for your care and hospitality - we have had a great week!
We celebrated a week's holiday with 6 adult children and 2 grandchildren. The house is equipped with all modern conveniences, has a beautiful and complete interior, but still has an authentic appearance. The space in and around the house is gigantic and there is plenty of entertainment for everyone: from a nice swimming pool with many sun loungers to a room with numerous games and a good tennis court. Highly recommended for a family holiday. We will definitely go back again.
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.
