Un Charmant Refuge Historique : Entre Sérénité et Convivialité
"Nous avons été agréablement surpris par la charmante maison et l'emplacement magnifique. Tout était très soigné et nous avions tout ce dont nous avions besoin. Le confort n'était pas en reste : une cuisine bien équipée, des chambres spacieuses et confortables, ainsi que des salles de bains impeccables. Jean Pierre nous a fourni toutes les informations nécessaires, et après son départ, nous avons pu compter sur les voisins sympathiques. Ils étaient également prêts à nous aider avec plaisir en cas de problème. Le gîte est situé en plein cœur d'un magnifique village historique. Pendant la journée, il y a beaucoup de touristes, mais le soir, lorsque tout le monde est parti, le calme s'installe sur le village, et vous pouvez profiter du silence. Nous avons reçu plus que ce à quoi nous nous attendions et avons vécu une expérience de vacances mémorable.
Nada negativo. Jean Pierre, el propietario, con una amabilidad extraordinaria. La casa con una limpieza sobresaliente y sus servicios magníficos. Si a todo ello se añade la belleza del pueblecito y de todo el entorno, sólo puedo decir que la estancia ha sdo inolvidable. Muy recomendable

About the host
Hosted by Jean Pierre Sagette
After 15 years spent in Tanzania, Mozambique and Congo where I worked for an airline as a bush pilot, I am back in France; in Carennac where charmed by this village and its environment, I decided to settle down. Photography, sailing, scuba diving, motorcycle; travel, archaeology, wildlife literature, nature are my favourite subjects
