Such a lovely week! Sarah & Tim made us really welcome and thanks to their tips we had some truly special days out.
Charming and characterful gite. Splendid views. The area is beautiful. The pool was very welcome in the heat, and Tia the collie was a real hit with our kids (& the chickens!).
Totally recommend for a family get away.
Our two year old son loved the outdoor area: chasing the ducks, watching tia the dog and the horses being cooled down with water. The sandpit (boulles area!) was his favourite and we really appreciated the fenced swimming pool with 2 locks. No need to bring any toys, lots of games were provided. The only thing we’d look for next time would be mosquito nets around the beds and some cushions for the outdoor seating for when we’re outside in the evening. A super stay and Sarah and her husband were so approachable and friendly - many thanks
We had a wonderful holiday there. Beautiful surroundings and a lovely house that meets all the requirements as described. And we will definitely come back again.

Fantastic, rustic setting in stunning rural area
The barn is a lovely rustic building and provided everything we needed. Sarah and Tim could not have been more helpful and welcoming. The kids loved the outdoor pool, the horses and of course "Minnie" the dog. It's a truly beautiful setting for a relaxing holiday.
Très bonne semaine dans un endroit calme et ensoleillé.
Sarah et Tim sont extrêmement charmants et très discrets.
Nous avons passé un excellent moment entre visites et farniente près de la piscine.
Cet endroit est indubitablement le meilleur, le plus sympathique, le plus authentique de tout les gites de vacances où nous avons séjournés depuis longtemps!!!!
Sarah et Tim sont des hôtes remarquables qui sont toujours attentif à votre confort sans êtres intrusifs. La propriété est magique et tres bien entretenue avec goût et confortable.
A recommander sans reserve.
La
Endroit tres reposant à la campagne.
Beaucoup de sites à voir au alentour.
Pièce à vivre et chambres spacieuces et restant fraiche, malgré les fortes chaleurs.
Jardinet parfait pour diner dehors sans être à l'étroit.
Au delà du jardinet, un immense jardin est disponible pour les enfants (foot, pétanque,...) La piscine est tres bien pour toute la famille et bien sécurisée !
Les enfants pourront assister à l'apport de la nourriture pour les chevaux et les poules.
Le chien est extrêmement bienveillant envers les enfants et tres joueur (malgré que l'un de nos enfant a tres peur des chiens, ils se sont tres vite trouvés)
Les hotes sont vraiment accueillant et disponible tout en restant discret.
Nous reviendrons sans hésitation !
Chez Sara, Tim et Tya 😉, vous êtes reçu comme la famille. On se sent comme à la maison. L'endroit est calme, reposant. C'est le top pour se ressourcer.
Merci encore à Tim et Sarah pour ce séjour si agréable et leur accueil si chaleureux. :-) Le gîte est très confortable et il y a beaucoup d'activités dans la ferme, pour les petits comme pour les grands (piscine, pétanque, billard, etc.). L'environnement est magnifique et très calme. Tim et Sarah sont aux petits soins et les enfants ont eu le plaisir de nourrir leurs animaux avec eux le soir. Nous y retournerons avec grand plaisir. :-)
Le gîte est au cœur de la nature, dans un lieu paisible et magnifique. L’accueil est au top doublé de plein de conseils de visites du terrroire. La piscine bien sécurisée pour les enfants, a été très appréciée pour toute la famille.
Quel plaisir de séjourner chez Sarah et Tim ! Ils ont fait de cet endroit un magnifique paradis où le repos, le calme et la nature sont au rendez-vous. Merci mille fois à vous deux pour votre accueil, votre disponibilité, votre discrétion...Nous avons passé un excellent séjour qui nous a permis de nous ressourcer mais également de visiter cette belle région. A mi chemin entre Périgueux et Bergerac, il est très facile de rejoindre les points touristiques et d'en profiter à fond. Nous ne sommes pas prêts à oublier ces deux merveilleuses semaines dans votre beau domaine ! A très bientôt !
Dominique et Olivier
Encore un énorme merci à Sarah et Tim pour leurs délicieuses pizzas...ce fut une après-midi bien fort sympathique !
Tim et Sarah nous ont formidablement accueillis dans un cadre magnifique. Nous avons pu profiter du calme de la propriété et de la campagne environnante. Merci encore à tous les 2 !
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans la propriété de Tim et de sa femme. Très bon accueil, propriété très bien entretenue, au calme, gîte très agréable. Les enfants étaient ravis de voir se balader les canards, les poules, Minnie le chien et de pouvoir approcher le cheval. Adresse à recommander.
Très bon séjour chez Sarah et Tim qui sont des hôtes très accueillants et chaleureux. Grande propriété très calme, en pleine nature avec en plus une piscine très agréable l'été.
The accommodation is set in the most beautiful countryside. We had a lovely gite with 2 bedrooms a large patio with bbq. There is a shared swimming pool that we used frequently and games to use badminton, bowling, cycling and lots of grass to play football on.
Sarah and Tim are the most hospitable hosts. They were able to recommend activities for our family and even hosted a pizza evening at their home for us to enjoy. They really made us feel at home.
The hosts chickens and ducks roam the garden which the children loved and they were able to see the horses as well close up which is new to them. We visited Chateaux’s, Roman ruins, caves, cathedrals, there is lots to do in this area. Would definitely recommend this tranquil place.
Wir haben hier, inmitten der Natur im Périgord, eine sehr schöne Woche mit unseren zwei Kindern (8 und 11 Jahre alt) verbracht. Die Gastgeber waren überaus freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Cottage blieb auch bei hohen Temperaturen angenehm kühl; wunderbar erfrischend war natürlich auch der Pool, den wir jeden Tag nach unseren Ausflügen genossen haben. Gerne genutzt haben wir auch unsere eigene Terrasse, von der man gut die Hühner und die zahlreichen Vögel beobachten konnte. Bemerkenswert war die Ruhe, die das Anwesen umgibt. Alles in allem ein herrlicher Ort um sich zu erholen, auszuspannen und das Périgord zu erkunden!
Chez Sarah & Tim nous avons passés 2 semaines en toute paix. Nature, silence, harmonie et la beauté de l'endroit, pour la quelle le deux travaillent beaucoup. Sité entre Bergerac et Perigueux, tout les attractions tourisiques du Périgord sont proches. Deux hôtes avec des grand coeurs...
Voor wie niet meer wenst dan rust, een zwembad bij warm weer, in een mooie omgeving. Basic huisje, zwembad, grote tuin en vriendelijke gastvrouw en gastheer. Wij hebben met onze twee zoontjes genoten van de rust en het zwembad, meer hadden we niet nodig!
Hosts were very friendly and helpful. Gite was clean and comfortable and the mini Farmers market an excellent idea, which we found very useful.
The only slight let down was the local village and the absence of a cafe or bistro.
Would certainly recommend this property
Tim & Sarah were excellent host's and made us feel very welcome. The gite was superb and the location was absolutely outstanding we will definitely going back.
