A Natural Paradise
Set in a lovely flowery garden and surrounded by country lanes lined with wildflowers, this peaceful place suited us down to the ground. If you enjoy peace and the natural world this is perfect. Its proximity to some of the regions lovely towns and villages means that there is plenty of sightseeing and shopping - there are great markets at weekends.

Outstanding Holiday
Michel and Steve went out of their way to make our week’s vacation a memorable one, in their lovely gite. Wonderful that it had been designed and built by them in traditional style. There are great views across the valley below the swimming pool. A very comforable and beautifully equiped property. Outstanding! Thank you.

Blissful stay
This Gite is absolutely stunning. Five stars are not enough! The hosts Michele and Steve are lovely and have created a little bit of paradise in the French countryside. The beautiful old stone barn has been renovated to such a high standard by Steve and tastefully and beautifully furnished by Michele. Very large and comfortable bed. The views are wonderful and the gardens, a result of Michele's creativity and hard work are simply beautiful. We enjoyed looking at all the beautiful plants and arrangements.The olive trees were stand out gorgeous! The swimming pool has beautiful views and is kept warm by the cover which means even though we visited in May the water was warm enough to swim. The private area is large with really good quality outside furniture for relaxing and eating and a good parasol. We enjoyed trips out to local towns and particularly enjoyed a trip to the Sunday Morning market followed by lunch at Montcuq. There is information in the gite about where to visit. We spent the previous week in the Dordogne but preferred this area as it was less touristy. Only regret is that we didn't manage to fit a massage in with Michele. Next time!

We've been back for a week and have been trying to think of something 'clever' that will sum up our stay with Steve and Michele. We've decided to keep it simple and to just say "perfection"! Wonderful location, fantastic accomodation/pool, sublime views and exceptional hospitality. Everything is perfectly maintained, inside and out. Look no further - this is it!

Not enough stars in the universe!
I find myself in something of a dilemma in writing this review: I want to say how extraordinary the place and the hosts are, but I don't want anyone else to go there when we want next to go. Also, why are there only five stars available? This demands 20 or even 30. The property itself outdoes the photos on the site - it's altogether roomier and lighter than is shown. We were two, for which the space is ideal - huge bedroom and spacious kitchen/ living room with a lovely private terrace outside. Steve, one half of the couple, has restored what was once a wreck into a building sympathetic to the original and its surrounds - the warm local stone feels as though it is organically connected to the land, which is itself glorious: Undulating fields behind the house, a feeling of a place at peace with itself and the outlook and hospitality from Michèle and Steve that was superlative. They are endlessly kind and warm and made an already delicious stay into something really special. The kitchen is perfectly kitted out, the bathroom ditto and everything worked! I suppose (hear the reluctance in my voice) I have to say you MUST go there, but please avoid the next time we go...

A brilliant stay - beautiful property
We stayed for a week and enjoyed every minute. The location is wonderful - great views from the garden and a beautiful drive to adjoining villages. The property is gorgeous, spacious yet cosy, with all the amenities you might need. We couldn’t use the swimming pool because it rained a lot during our stay but it looked fabulous! Steve and Michele were lovely hosts.
