Beautiful property, stone and beams inside, very rustic, equiped with everything you could need including BBQ and very comfy bed!
Wonderful views whichever way you looked, a lovely pond where I saw fish, frogs and water snakes!
The owners Sarah and Tim are fantastic! Such lovely friendly people with a wealth of local knowledge! (Including advising us of the best way to get to the rugby in Bordeaux!)
I must also mention Tia, their rescue dog who we became very fond of! Such a well behaved friendy girl!
Lots of nice places to visit a short car journey away! Cute villages, towns and Chateauxs to go wine tasting! 🍷🍷🌞🌞
We had an amazing time! Would definitely recommend! 🙂🙂🙂
Sarah and her husband were really welcoming and very informative. We had a really lovely stay.

Lovingly restored Gites
This is the 4th year in a row I have visited Trois Maisons.
I have travelled with family both Young a old.
Sarah & Tim have put their hearts into their gites and it shows. They are also great hosts and will do everything they can to ensure you enjoy your stay.
Villamblard is remote but easily accessible by car with many interesting places to visit.
The cottages are comfortable and well equipped with everything you need for your self catering stay, with home grown produce available too. There’s also lots do on the farm plus a very welcoming pool.
Trois Maisons provided spotless,comfortable accommodation in lovely old farm buildings. Sarah and Tim made sure we had everything we needed and lots delicious tomatoes and produce from their garden.
They have created wonderful grounds with shady trees/sitting areas and pool with plenty of sun loungers .
We totally relaxed sitting next to the huge pond full of lillies and frogs and enjoyed exploring nearby by foot and on the bikes.
We enjoyed the chickens, ducks and all the wildlife and of course fell in love their great dog Tia.
A very French country holiday with the added bonus of a kettle!
Super cottage et belle nature pour se ressourcer au calme. La piscine à proximité est géniale pour pouvoir se rafraîchir (pendant les journées les plus chaudes) ainsi que pour se délasser tous les jours. Dans le logement, tout est à disposition. Pour d'éventuelles requêtes Sarah et Tim sont très disponible et réactifs. Ils sont d'ailleurs très agréables et serviables, tout en sachant rester discrets.

Gite de Sandra et Tim
Environnement magnifique, bien entretenu et très calme. Gîte agréable et propre avec les nécessités de base et un petit plus :) Hôtesse et hôte très sympathiques et attentionnés. Traitement gentille et respectueux des animaux, ils y vivent bien !
Conseils:
*Les directions vers l'emplacement pourraient être plus précises (Douville au lieu de Villamblard ?) Alors c'est plus facile à trouver.
*Placer un 2iéme panneau en bois avec : "Trois Maison" de l'autre côté de la rue (avec couleur vive!) afin que les visiteurs venant de l'autre côté puissent bien le voir.
* Quelques moustiquaires pour ceux qui en ont besoin.
Sinon, un endroit merveilleux, fortement recommandé!
La maison était encore plus agréable que nous le pensions. Joli terrain avec plein de poules et de canards qui ont fait la joie de notre fille de 18mois. Sarah et Tim sont des hôtes très attentionnés. Merci beaucoup pour votre accueil. <3
Nous avons passé un séjour idéal.
Les hôtes sont chaleureux et accueillants qui aiment transmettre leur amour des animaux et de leur propriété. Nous avons apprécié échanger avec eux.
Le lieu est superbe, bercé par le calme et par la beauté de la nature.
Nous y retourneront !
Cinq jours d'immersion dans un écrin de verdure! Un gîte adorable, intime, avec son petit jardin privé, et tout le confort. Tout autour une nature florissante, un jardin de goût façonné par Sarah et Tim! Les animaux, libres, sont une compagnie douce et agréable. Sarah et Tim ont été aux petits soins pour nous, et sont des hôtes adorables, et délicats.
La piscine a fait la joie de notre fils de 8 ans!!
Nul besoin de se précipiter dans les visites touristiques, tout le calme et le plaisir sont sur place!
A réserver sans hésitation!
Nous y retournerons, c'est certain!
Great property with rustic charm and lots of outdoor space for kids and places to perch in the evening to watch the sun set. The pool was very welcome. Rural yet well placed for Bergerac, Perigueux and the Dordogne valley. Sarah and Tim were great hosts.

Does exactly what it says on the tin.
Welcoming hosts, lovely gites and relaxing pool all set in a stunning rural setting.
A great escape from the daily grind and to realise how life should be lived.
Only downside was having to leave!!!

A really lovely place to relax and enjoy the surrounding areas. Lots of places to visit but just as nice to stay put and have fun by the pool.
Tim and Sarah are lovely hosts and very welcoming.

Petit coin de paradis
Ecrin de verdure tenu par les sympathiques Tim et Sarah. Les chevaux, anes, chien, piscine et jeux a disposition ont seduit les enfants. Gite rustique et charmant a une heure max. de tous les beaux sites de Dordogne.

Un petit paradis...
Gîte au calme, entouré d'un tres beau jardin agrementé d'une petite marre pour le côté bucolique. Les animaux, poules, canard, âne, chevaux... rythment la vie paisible de ce charmant endroit. Les propriétaires sont discrets et tres chaleureux à la fois. Ils vous font profiter avec plaisir des trésors de leur potager, ce qui donne un petit goût d'authentique au séjour.
Merci à Sarah et Tim pour leur accueil !

Un lieu et des hôtes charmants. Un environnement paisible et accueillant.
Des espaces extérieurs et intérieurs adaptés à la détente la plus complète. Beaucoup de fleurs et d'oiseaux. La description est absolument fidèle à la réalité. Les locaux sont propres et bien entretenus.
Nous y reviendrons avec plaisir.
Une partie du Périgord peut-être moins connue mais riche d'histoire et de beaux monuments peu fréquentés..
