Cote du Grel cottage 4/5, pool, private garden & balcony, fantastic location

*Taire du Grel, Domme*

COTE DU GREL GITE...
This picturesque stone cottage has a private fenced garden with sun loungers and a barbecue.
A sweeping stone staircase leads to its spacious balcony overlooking the garden, with views of the forest covered hills. The balcony has a table and chairs and exterior lighting, the ideal place to watch the hot air balloons pass in the early evening and the starry sky at nightfall.
A gate from the garden leads to the parking, swimming pool and play area, surrounded by lawns, and fenced around the perimeter.

Enter from the balcony into the kitchen / dining / living room. The tiled floor, original beams and stone features create a bright and comfortable space.
The thick stone walls, shutters and electric fans keep it cool in summer, and the wood burning stove creates a warm atmosphere for comfortable winter stays.

The ground floor bedroom has twin beds and a bathroom with a shower, sink and WC.
The staircase leads from the living room to a second bathroom, also with shower, sink and WC, and to a large bedroom with a double bed.
A single folding bed (for a 5th guest) is available in the upstairs bedroom, or in the living room, on request.

There is a welcome booklet in the cottage with information on nearby attractions, activities and restaurants.
Free Wifi, English tv, French tv, games, books, DVD player and Films. Towels & Bedding provided. Pets welcome on request.


SHARED SPACES
The large swimming pool is surrounded by sun loungers and parasols and overlooks numerous lawns and fruit trees.
Watch our free-range chickens eat in their comfortable pen and explore the meadow beyond the fence.
The play area includes swings, a monster tire, a large trampoline with enclosure, badminton and a ping-pong table. Ball games are also permitted on the larger fields behind the property.
There is also off road parking in front of the main building and a laundry room.


LOCATION...
The cottage is set in a quiet off road location, just outside of the hill top Bastille town of Domme, and 15 minutes from the medieval city of Sarlat.
The centre of Domme is just a 15-20 minute walk from the gites, or 3 minutes by car, where you will find numerous bars, restaurants, tourist shops, a Casino Contact (small supermarket), a cash machine, and a post office. ​
Domme is a tourist attraction in itself, being officially classed as one of 'the most beautiful villages of France'. It offers a magnificent 180 degree view point across the Dordogne valley, a stalactite cave system with a glass lift looking out over the river, tours of the medieval gate towers which imprisoned the Knights Templars, and beautiful public gardens and footpaths around the ancient town walls.

Perfect gite to explore the Dordogne
This was our first trip to the Dordogne and the first time travelling with our 9-month old dog. Our accommodation - Cote du Grel - was perfect for us. Enclosed small garden which was great for our dog and for us relaxing in the sun. Terrace area where we had all our meals - it was so peaceful. Lots of places to visit within a short distance - we’ll definitely be back to the area. Ben and Maria were great hosts - thank you.

Great times!
A great little find, lovely quiet place, gite was spotlessly clean and very comfortable, it had everything we could have wanted, lovely enclosed patio and garden and again a spotlessly clean pool in lovely well kept gardens. Ben the host was great, he answered any questions we asked pronto and the booklet provided with info on the local area, things to do, places to go and see, eat etc was excellent . A great time was had by all Thanks Ben and Maria

Perfect Domme Area Location
This is perfectly located for Domme, A 20 min brisk walk uphill or a 3 minute quiet drive. Also it is well placed for the top Dordogne sites within a 20 minute drive. The gite is what you would expect from the French country property with the addition of pool. Internet was usable, which allowed the pre-arrival UK documents to be up loaded from the comfort of the TV sofa. Even mobile phones worked, I guess as a result of the proximity to Domme. For a townie the location was quiet, the hooting owls at night were a highlight. Our hosts were efficient and un-obtrusive. Check-in was brief, a welcome relief after a long journey. I would recommend booking sooner rather than later for 2022. Domme will not be this quiet again. UK visitors were noticeably absent. Don't leave the French and Dutch to monopolise it.

Wonderful country location. Friendly hosts.
Americans might find it odd to have to rent towels...it would be a nice upgrade to provide them. No electricity in bathrooms. Otherwise nicely equipped and comfortable. Would stay again.
