Rural cosy beamed cottage VF-du-Perigord log fire stunning views private terrace

Traditionally restored French rural cottage on a quiet road with exposed beams located between the Dordogne and Lot Valleys. This terrace offers you total relaxation and privacy after a day sightseeing to soak up the sun with local olives, du vin blanc au rouge, barbecue or simply enjoy an aperitif before a visit to the local exquisite restaurants. You can sample the local gourmet dining at Restaurant "La Bastide", "La Petit Auberge" or "O Faim Gout R Mets" are recommended and all within walking distance of the house.
There is use of a large swimming pool at local campsite (2 minutes walk from the house) for the price of purchasing ice-creams/drinks in their bar.
The house has been traditionally furnished with spacious rooms to accommodate six people and boasts a wood effect fully fitted kitchen with large stone open log fire in the lounge housing two large comfortable sofas and seating for 7 people perfect for cosy evenings, family summer and winter holidays.
The Boucherie, Boulangerie, two local Supermarche and cafe/bars are a short stroll from the house and for the more adventurous canoeing and water sports are available on the Dordogne or Lot rivers.

A very peaceful , fantastic place tostay in the Dordogne.
The property is lovely. It had everything you could possibly want including games , books, bbq along with, every conceivable kitchen utensil. The owners provided very detailed instructions as to how to get there,how to get in, how to operate the appliances. It was brilliant. The property is in a gorgeous little village just a few metres along the road. We were also able to use the local campsite facilities too which was lovely.

Séjour agréable
La région est magnifique, la location est très calme et très bien située. La literie est bonne, la cuisine est bien équipée mais mériterait d'être revue notamment au niveau des verres. L'état général de propreté est acceptable mais pas fignolé (Salon de jardin très sale, récupération de la carte pour les ordures le dernier jour, le ménage est manifestement vite fait...) Nous garderons toutefois un excellent souvenir de notre séjour.

Très bonne.
La maison est agréable et confortable. La possibilité d'accéder à la piscine du petit camping qui se trouve non loin de la maison est un plus. La ville est charmante et bien située pour découvrir cette belle région.

Vacances très sympathiques en Perigord
Charmante maison dans le Perigord dans un joli et typique village. Maison bien équipée , literie excellente, très proche du centre ville, tres calme avec une jolie vue sur un paysage bien vert. Seul dommage le mur en pierre de la terrasse s’était écroulé avant notre arrivée a cause de la sécheresse. Les propriétaires avaient sécurisé mais la terrasse avait perdu un peu de son charme. Neanmoins les vacances ont été très sympa, le region y est pour beaucoup , avec des paysages magnifiques et plein de sites a decouvrir. L’accueil a lui aussi été excellent ; merci a Estelle et Rachel

Magnifique !
Bravo pour cette location irréprochable : tout était parfait. Mention spéciale à la literie hors pair, nous avons tous dormi comme des loirs 🙂 Maison impeccable : les équipements (pas de télé mais un très bon lecteur de DVD), la batterie de cuisine, le linge, le barbecue ...), la terrasse avec une vue splendide sur une forêt d'arbres, la machine à laver, les canapés ultra confortables ...Toutes les consignes sont minutieusement indiquées, impossible de s'y perdre. Le gros plus : les échanges avec David et Rachel, les propriétaires, très réactifs et attentionnés. Merci pour la très bonne bouteille de vin à l'arrivée 😘 Ne pas hésiter à louer en t. . Vous pouvez louer en toute confiance. Il y a plein de choses à voir autour. Commerces et services tout à côté. Parfait pour nos ados et notre mamie. Merci beaucoup +++

Magnifique endroit
Une très belle maison au sein d'un village calme et reposant. Proche des commerces et bénéficiant d'un calme absolu, cette maison possède toutes les qualités. Meublée avec beaucoup de goût , elle comporte tout ce que l'on attend d'une location : confort et commodités. En bref nous reviendrons ! (même si Villefranche est peut être un peu trop calme au goût de nos 2 adolescents...)

Lovely terrace with great view but all in all ...
Lets begin with the good things: a lovely terrace with a great view and enough space inside for a small family. A few minor points however: the house was not clean when we arrived, there was no television (and I love the Tour the France so i had appreciated it if the landlords had told us), there was no wifi (we knew that beforehand) and the matrasses in the two-beds bedroom were below minimum level. So, all in all, we were a bit disappointed.

A Quiet Retreat
I was slightly anxious on arriving in Villefranche after a long car journey across France from Caen but I need not have worried - everything was exactly as we'd been promised in the brochure. Trouble-free access to the key soon gave us entry to the property that was absolutely spotless and clearly well-maintained. We soon discovered that Le Coustalou was indeed a 'home from home'. The next morning on our initial sortie into the village for fresh-baked bread, it became clear that Villefranche was simply perfect for our needs : an ideal retreat from the hustle and bustle of working life and offering a splendid centre from which to discover some of the hidden corners of the Dordogne. Shopping was no problem, though it must be acknowledged that large supermarkets were at a fair distance - but the journey was a small price to pay for the benefits of being in such a charming village - besides, the local shops offered most of what we wanted. For one of our party, the highlight was the relative proximity to Perigueux and the closing stage of the Tour de France but for most of us, the best times came from the chance to explore the wonderful hill-top castles and 'bastides' and enjoy the excellent local food and wine. There are superb opportunities for walking and exploring the local area, and for those wanting more energetic activity, much is available within a short radius of the village. A word must be given to the local restaurants which were so welcoming and thoroughly merit the stars they have earned! In fact the warmth of the locals is something that will stay in our memories - the friendly toleration of neighbours and shopkeepers who struggled to understand the manic efforts of our Australian brother-in-law as he manfully tried to resurrect his schoolboy French of 50 years ago was a sheer delight to behold! That warmth and friendliness was felt from the very outset with our contact with owners, Rachel and David: their service was simply the best - prompt accurate information came our way and the financial arrangements were just as well organised (including the meticulous deposit refund). I could not fault it in any way. I sit now on a damp grey October evening thinking back over a wonderfully relaxing holiday, and in my imagination can still feel the warmth of the evening sun as I sit on the terrace of le Coustalou nursing a chilled glass of rose - Villefranche has worked its charm on me and I shall look back to returning at some point in the future

The Quiet Life
This was the perfect location for a relaxing holiday in rural France. The village is well placed for lots of sightseeing in the Dordogne area. The terrace is excellent for wining and dining and the views are superb. The village is exceptionally quiet and traditional, as is the property. An excellent and relaxing stay. Many Thanks.

Cozy, family friendly home
Everything was "just right" about this old-style house on the edge of the village. We could sit on our balcony and stare out over the hills in the twilight pretending we were alone or in minutes walk to the center of a thriving small town. Our young teenagers loved the proximity of the campground, where we were able to arrange use of the pool in exchange for buying a few drinks. The auberge at the top of the hill affords a delicious meal - though you should get there by 8:30 if you don't want to incur a grump from Madame. All the beauties of the region are within an easy drive.

FABULOUS HOLIDAY AT THIS GITE
We have had a fantastic holiday at this lovely gite. We loved being so close to the village with all the amenities on our doorstep and took full advantage of all the community activities that were taking place during our stay in the market place. We enjoyed using the local campsite pool which was very good value for the price of an ice-cream or 2. The owners of the campsite were very friendly and welcoming. There were so many lovely places to visit and we enjoyed doing some of the local circular walks. We also enjoyed meals and sitting reading on the sunny terrace, with beautiful views over the countryside and even watching shooting stars late at night. Having been to many gites in France, this was by far the best- clean, well equipped and ideally located. Although there was no dishwasher, we did not find this a problem and even found we enjoyed sharing the washing up! The owners have been very helpful at every stage in the process of booking, providing detailed information and prompt responses to queries. We would definitely recommend this gite and hope to return again soon.
