Jul 28, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Vraiment parfait! Nous avons l'habitude de réserver après avoir bien lu les appréciations d'autres vacanciers. Cela nous a convaincu de louer cette propriété. Nos attentes ont été largement dépassées: le hameau, le calme, la maison et sa piscine, la région en général, etc. Nous avons en particulier apprécié la gentillesse de Thierry et Annick. Nous en profitons pour les remercier de leur accueil et de toutes les attentions à notre égard. C'est certain, nous reviendrons. Benoit D. ##### benoit d.

Nous savons ou aller quand nous retournerons en vacance dans le sectuer. Un grand merci aux proprietaires qui sont tres sympas. ##### Christophe P. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nigel B., Bideford, UK Jul 2, 2018 #### Spotless cottage and pool in rural settings This is very probably the cleanest house/cottage we have ever stayed in, it was faultless. Located in a small hamlet, in a rural area about an hour and a half from Bergerac airport, this accommodation offers a perfect getaway from all the stresses of everyday life. Thre is a large secure garden with a variety of fruit trees and shrubs which offer a shaded place to sit during the hot weather. The pool, although not heated, is exceptional for a refreshing swim or just floating about. The water is also kept crystal clear. The accommodation itself is immaculate with a modern kitchen featuring double sliding doors opening onto the patio with views across the pool and the garden. The hosts are charming, friendly and respect your privacy. I would have no hesitation in recommending this accommodation or staying here again myself. The pictures on this site really do not do justice to the whole property. It really is amazing!!!! ##### Nigel B.

Aug 21, 2017 #### Place to be - people looking for pacefull and quiet location In total we have spent 2 weeks in this place. Very peaceful, quiet location. Nice little house in the middle of the countryside. A bit isolated which contributes to the overall privacy. All basic accommodation is available with a magnificent swimming pool. Very friendly and supportive owners with a lot of respect for their guests. It’s a place we would certainly recommend without any doubt. ##### Gino V.
