Beautiful secluded property
The house is a beautiful traditional building. It is light and airy with huge windows. We really liked the big walk-in showers in all the en suite bathrooms. The bedrooms are all quite separate (with the exception of two rooms) which gave everyone their own space.
The gardens, terrace and pool are totally stunning and easy to relax in for adults and children alike. We spent whole days by the pool swimming and sunbathing - it gets sunshine all afternoon and well into the evening. There's also a gorgeous terrace by the kitchen for shaded meals overlooking the gardens. The hammock was popular too!
It is a very rural location - we saw deer, heard owls and spotted shooting stars in the clear night sky (but still had good WiFi!). Our hire cars were invaluable for exploring the nearby towns, markets (market days are busy but great fun!) and supermarkets, and we even went all the way to the river Dordogne one day for canoeing.
The only down side to this property was that local restaurant choices were limited - it is not as commercial as Bergerac or areas nearer the Dordogne. Having said that we had great meals at Le Mouton Noir in Vergt and La Ferme Auberge de la Colline. Also we didn't find any local taxi firms, so we ate in several nights using the great BBQ and very good quality food available in the shops.
In summary this was a very beautiful spot for a secluded holiday with our extended family.
