Beautiful house
The Forge is a fantastic house, four large bedrooms with bathrooms, plenty of living space, lovely garden with a great pool. It is decorated to a very high standard and extremely well equipped. In all, a perfect destination for a gathering of families .

Tranquility
Very spacious, well presented and equipped . Located in an historic village which will benefit once the local hotel/restaurant re-opens. Very good outdoor seating area, but not large in size, which could be an issue for large families. One improvement would be increased English TV channels when taking a rest from exploring the superb area In conclusion, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, as did our dog !

Lovely Time in Saint Amand de Coly
It was our third Holiday-Trip to Saint Amand and we enjoyed it very much. Florence‘s Maisons are perfect equiped and absolut comfortable. The Restaurants around, in Montignac or Sarlat-la-Canéda are fantastic. Our Family will visit Saint Amand again in the next years.

Beautifully renovated with all modern comforts
We spent a month in the Dordogne, staying for three weeks at La Forge and then our final week in one of Florence and Richard's other properties, L'Ermitage. We found both to be exactly as described on the website, and looked even better than in the photos. Traditional rustic properties that have been expertly and beautifully renovated with the standards you would expect at a five-star hotel in terms of furniture, decor and facilities. Florence and her husband are such charming, considerate hosts, and had thought of everything from a welcome bottle of wine, pate and homemade apricot jam (made by Florence herself) and the kitchen full of basics like salt & pepper, herbs, pasta, butter, olive oil etc. - Florence even contacted us before we arrived to ask if she could get some breakfast things for us as she knew we'd be arriving late at night and wouldn't have time to shop. It was these thoughtful little touches that made our stay so special. The property was spotless, and everything well maintained. The pool was cleaned/checked at least once a week by the gardener/pool man; the garden and grounds were immaculate and perfect for our small border terrier who came with us; and everything in the house worked like a charm. The kitchen had absolutely everything you could possibly need and we really appreciated the two sets of dinnerware & cutlery, loads of glasses and mugs etc. so we had plenty even if we'd filled the dishwasher. The village itself has a local restaurant which we ate at a few times, and the children bought ice creams there practically every day. The nearest boulangerie is just a short drive away. There are also plenty of good local restaurants within just a few miles so we were never short of places to try. We particularly enjoyed visiting Sarlat, Montignac and many of the smaller pretty villages - St Leon, Domme, Rocamador, Roque Gageac - and also loved canoeing down the Vezere river, and visiting the various caves and castles. Lascaux 4 is amazing and well worth a visit - and it's only 10 minutes drive away in Montignac. In summary, we would highly recommend La Forge and L'Ermitage and the local area has plenty to offer in terms of beautiful countryside, peace and quiet, activities, heritage sites and delicious local food and wine. But in particular, it is Florence and Richard and their extended family who make this experience special with their warm and genuine welcome.

Stay at La Forge
An amazing property in a beautiful location. Lots of room for a holiday with family or friends with all the facilities you need for the perfect stay. We would highly recommend. We were well looked after during our stay and the villa was clean on arrival.

Fab house and location
We arrived in what was the wettest week in France you could ask for but the house was our safe haven for the week. Vincent greeted us with food and drinks bought fresh for us on our request which was most appreciated. He gave us advice on markets, fuel, the house and local restaurants. The pool was an asset in warmer days. The children loved playing in it. The views outside are lush too. Wander round the village it's quaint and very beautiful, everyone was friendly especially in the local produce shop which is a must visit. We did lots of sightseeing and the house was well equipped on return to cook, sleep chill out etc. As we were two English families it would of been good to have English tv or a DVD player plus an extra sofa so we could all sit in the lounge but the 4 teenagers hogged the two sofas. The bedrooms were large and beds very comfortable. The house is close to all local towns and we visited Sarlat often. Would we recommend the house to anyone else - absolutely I can imagine how great it is in the French summer sun. Thanks to Flo and Vincent for their hospitality.

Beautiful old charm with contemporary living
St Amand is a small village tucked away in a glorious wooded valley, it's cobbled narrow streets lead to a central square where there is the imposing 12 century Abbey. There also is a local restaurant serving simple French food and a shop selling a variety of local products from hand made cups to dried cepes to fantastic liqueurs. The owner is a particular delight, as he is very keen for you to try samples! St Amand is very well positioned being just 10 mins drive from Montignac, 20 mins from Sarlat and local interests such as the Grottes. The house L'Abbey is stunning. It is an imposing Maison Matre, built from local stone and is one of three neighbouring houses, LSource and L'Hermitage. Even though they are together and share a well maintained 1 acre lawn at the front, they are all very private. It is difficult not to sound over enthusiastic but L'Abbey is simply brilliant. If you are looking for luxury accommodation mixed with old charm and modern facilities, then this is the place. It is spacious, decor finished to a very high standard, comfortable contemporary furniture, but mixed with a scattering of antique furniture. Our visit was at the beginning of May, the days were warm, but nights were chilly, so we lit a roaring fire in the imposing fireplace, with wood provided. We didn't really need it as there is underfloor heating throughout the ground floor and heaters upstairs, but it made the experience even better. Outside to the rear, there is a cobbled/grass courtyard, where there is the heated pool, with electric cover, a large gas Webber BBQ, sun-loungers, table and chairs, again all of a quality standard. There is access to this directly from the house via double doors from the snug and a door from the kitchen area. This is bordered by a tall stone wall to one side, an old barn wall to another and trees and bushes to another. Here is access to the steps that lead down to the large front grass lawn I mentioned earlier. Florence was a very helpful host, she responded to any of our queries promptly and provided us with the contact details of Vincent, who lives locally. He greeted us and in fact helped our daughter, who had driven to the house before we arrived; she couldn't find the house and he went and found her! It may appear to some that it seems expensive, but if you visit you will see why, as it gives the impression that you are actually staying at someone's home. Would highly recommend and will go back without a second thought.

Wonderful Vacation At La Forge, Dordogne
There was my wife, me, 2 kids of 14 and 12 and our small little dogs. We had an absolute ball and loved it. The property itself is lovely with a wonderful log fire (with all logs provided). The place is spacious, clean and well stocked with utensils. Pool very nice, but could be turned up a couple of degrees when the sun goes in. BBQ was clean and when the gas ran out it was changed in no time at all. Be careful when walking on the grass late August as the tree's have prickles that fall into the grass and if you tread on them, its painful. The restaurant 2 mins walk away is terrific and the people lovely. Would we go back again? Absolutely. This place is a real jewel in the crown. Be careful if ordering Taxi's as they are a rip off. Euros 70 to travel 14 miles.

Lovely home - rustic feel but all the conveniences
This is a lovely home - a rustic feel with all sorts of conveniences. We enjoyed a roaring fire but also the radiant heat floors - never a cold moment in this beautiful house. The kitchen is well appointed and the guardian, Vincent, could not have been more helpful. A lovely way to ring in the new year.

A Fantastic Dordogne Property
Four of us stayed at La Forge in June, 2014. The property is a first class, fantastic renovation of a classic Dordogne house. It features a comfortable living area with fireplace, a large kitchen and dining area on the first floor and four well-appointed bedrooms, each with its own luxurious en suite bathroom. The kitchen and dining area opens onto an outdoor patio next to a private pool. La Forge is located in the picturesque village of St Amand de Coly, a plus beaux village de France which features a 12th century fortified church. St Amand is ideally situated between Sarlat, the principal market town of the Perigord Noir, and Montignac, another quaint village on the Vézère River. All of the Dordogne attractions, including numerous chateaux, prehistoric caves, gardens, markets, restaurants and the river valley itself, are a short easy drive from La Forge. We would highly recommend La Forge as a Dordogne vacation destination.

As good as the photos
We rented La Forge and found that it was every bit as wonderful as it looked in the listing. The house was everything we needed as a base from which to explore the region, particularly the prehistory sites, but it was also a welcoming home for relaxation. Florence, the owner, was a pleasure to deal with, as was Vincent, the property manager. They were always available to answer any questions or concerns. This part of the Perigord is historic, but also has many wonderful markets, sights, and restaurants to explore.

Fantastic stay!
The house is lovely and well decorated situated in a charming village. Everything needed was available and the pool clean and ready. We did not know how to operate the bbq and the hosts came right away to help us. A fantastic stay in a peaceful village with warm hosts. Highly recommended! Karine

Thanks for a wonderful week
My wife and I booked La Forge for a week in June to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary with our son and his family, including three energetic boys. It was just perfect. The property is altogether as good as described and the town is beautifully restored. Of course, one must visit the castles and caves of the Vezere and Dordogne valleys, but back at La Forge they have to compete with a very comfortable setting, a pool to jump into to cool off from a day of touring, and a large meadow for a game of soccer. Come to Perigord Noir to see the famous sights. Then, relax and enjoy even more the beauty and pleasure of walking about St. Amand de Coly and many other nearby towns full of medieval and Renaissance architecture and artistic gardens. The longer you stay, the closer to home you will remain!

L'ermitage -
L'ermitage was as wonderful as it looks on the website. The house offered absolutely everything we needed and the setting was marvelously peaceful.The village too was charming and within easy reach of all the attractions of the area. We had a fabulous holiday.
