Beautiful house with wonderful views
We had an amazing holiday in this beautiful farmhouse, staying here with our 3 kids, mother-in-law and our dog. The views are stunning and we enjoyed the pool, which is very pleasant and at a nice temperature. My 87 year old mother-in-law even went for a swim here! We also really liked this area, which is not as touristy as for example the Dordogne but just as beautiful.
The check in process was made easy by the housekeepers and when somehow our internet didn't seem to work on the first day they immediately came over and fixed the problem. There were flowers and wine upon arrival which made us feel very welcome. Before our stay I emailed back and forth with Shelby about arranging a taxi for the airport for part of our group and she responded right away and made sure a very nice lady in a taxi came to pick us up on the last day. Thank you!
The house is very romantic and the garden is huge. Our dog could just run free, since the property is entirely fenced. She had the best time! (although our dog did have an encounter with a poisonous toad, perhaps an idea to include a general warning on this in the information book? For us city people this was a new experience...;))
The living room and two bedrooms downstairs are very nice and stay cool, even when it's very hot. Upstairs this is a bit more difficult, since the rooms here are straight underneath the roof. But with the provided fans it worked out just fine. The kitchen has everything you need and the pantry provided even more space. We didn't use the TV so can't say anything about this.
If I would have to say one negative thing, it would be the bathroom in one of the upstairs bedrooms. There was a bad odour there so we didn't use it. Instead we used the other bathrooms (there are 4 bathrooms in the house!) I think it's hard to change since this is an authentic farmhouse and there is not a lot of circulation, but I want to be honest and it doesn't smell good. But also honestly, on the whole this was such a minor detail on a perfect holiday that I still give 5 stars for everything. Thank you!!!
