The pictures give an accurate impression of the property. The house is beautiful and a bit quirky, the décor is very interesting and the whole place feels very homely.The garden is fantastic, very big, quiet and secluded. The pool is great - bigger than the average. The downstairs bedroom is rather lonely the way it opens straight onto the terrace above the pool.There are a lot of steps so it's not really suitable for anyone who has mobility problems.What we liked was the feeling that you were staying in someone's house as a guest rather than sterile rental property.Very good woodland walks from the house. The village with an Auberge is just about 1 km but a steep walk back.We highly recommend this property. Any negative points are too trivial to mention.
Wonderful break at this charming house. It was brilliantly stocked with everything needed for a comfortable and stress free stay. The most fantastic pool and grounds - so relaxing, the perfect getaway. Communication and check in process was smooth and straightforward. We loved all the outdoor space, and 3 different areas for eating as the sun and heat of the day went over us.The house is in a small village with fab restaurant/bar which does great burgers and a 10min drive from Neuvic which has excellent boulangeries, a tabac, cafe, bi-weekly small local market and large supermarket. We'll definitely hope to book again for summer 2027!
Nice garden, big swimming pool, covered terrace, cool inside the house. Everything you need to have a wonderful holiday ! A coffee machine would have been appreciated.
Le Soutenac is a generous and comfortable place to enjoy rural French life. The description of the house was very accurate and there were no hidden surprises! The kitchen is large and well-equipped, there are many places to sit, eat, drink or relax. The boulangerie was shut for the first half of our stay but Neuvic is an easy cycle away (I guess even Mme Boulanger needs a holiday!)
What a wonderful house in such a beautiful location.
We loved every minute of our stay! It is so peaceful, yet not too secluded that you feel cut off. Perfect!
The pool is fabulous; large and clean, and very welcoming on hot days.
The house is very well furnushed and has everything you'd ever need for cooking eyc.
Lots to do in the local area too - we loved visiting nearby towns and markets, as well as chateaux and vineyards, and of course, canoeing on the Dordogne.
Some fantastic restaurants nearby neant there was always a choice to be made.
We can highly recommend staying here!

Thank you for your lovely review and we are so pleased you had a great stay. Please come back anytime!
The drive was worth it...well worth it! Hidden away from the rest of the world, Le Soutenac is a diamond within the Dordogne. The grounds itself are 'magnifique' and the differing levels create a variety of terraces from where to enjoy a meal, shelter in the shade or bathe in the sunlight. From morning coffees in the cool of the front of house, to evening meals at the top table overlooking the pool and valley beyond, the house offered so many different viewpoints to enjoy our week's stay. The pool itself was perfect - large enough for 5 of us (three older 'not-so-little children') and also a cool but pleasant temperature when the sun bathing became just too much! Inside the house, the stone walls meant that despite high temperatures outside, we were able to take refuge if needed. The downstairs bedroom that opens its doors onto the mid terrace and then down to the pool was cool throughout our stay. The middle floor is split wonderfully into 3 - a large 'farmhouse' kitchen with space to eat around a large table if required. That flowed beautifully into a middle room with armchairs and seat but then the feature fireplace that hung between this and the sitting room was modern yet perfectly in keeping with the feel of the older features of the building. Upstairs, three more rooms - two with double beds and one with 3 single beds meant that there was ample space for us all. An added bonus was that despite the heat, we seldom saw or heard and unwanted mosquitos. Just gorgeous!
This is a lovely large property with lots of space and is a great place for a family group to get together. It has a large pool and has plenty of seating areas outside and in.
Large utility room with good washing machine and condensing tumble dryer.
Plenty of crockery, cutlery and glasses, but a cracked cafetière on arrival meant had to resort to instant :(
Overall this is a lovely property and we had a great time, it just needs a bit of TLC in order to receive a full 5-star rating…
The wooden furniture in the lower seating area could do with renovating/replacing as it is a little tired, rickety and falling apart.
The swimming pool is a great size we all loved it, but there are a lot of paving that needs resetting as they are dangerously loose and wobbly, especially the pool edge ones. Two of the three umbrellas winding mechanisms need attention as one didn’t stay up and another was very loose and awkward to erect.
There were also had a lot of wasps around the pool and around the roof which resulted in us not being able to open the velux windows - the roof might need checking for nests!
Unfortunately there was a bit of a downside, as we had not been informed there was a problem with a lack of fridge/freezer prior to our arrival. When we arrived there was just a small fridge without a freezer, so we had to buy a cool box to store ice so we could have cold drinks. The couple who look after the house did come to explain that a new one would be with us on the following Monday. Thanks to Donald this happened Tuesday, but four days without ice for drinks and ice lollies for the grandchildren was a bit tough in the heat.
The kitchen area and the upstairs bathroom needs some attention as does the carpet in the upstairs bedrooms. We all used the downstairs bathroom shower which was great.
The hot water boiler was a bit noisy at night if you were in the downstairs bedroom, which is probably why the previous visitors had turned the boiler off at the switch. I discovered this the first morning when there was no hot water.

Re the fridge freezer - Jean Claude only discovered it was not working when he came to do the changeover on the day of your arrival, the previous guests had not informed anyone. He immediately provided a spare fridge from his own home and you were kept fully informed of the situation throughout the whole process. He ordered a new fridge freezer, Monday was a bank holiday, and the new fridge freezer was delivered Tuesday morning, I’m sorry that you didn’t have any ice & lollies for a couple of days but Jean Claude did his best considering he had only just come out of hospital. Cafetière: if you had let us know it was broken we could have replaced it, but in fact you just left it for the next guests and for us to find out via your review. Unless we know about things that are not working properly we cannot sort them out. Parasols: ditto. Carpets upstairs: they are jute, and various guests have left velux windows open when raining which has caused stains, but it is an old farmhouse and they will be replaced soon. I hope you enjoyed your stay as it is a lovely house in a fabulous setting.
La maison et son jardin paysagé sont superbes et son emplacement parfait ! C'est idéal pour y vivre à plusieurs. En pleine nature, à l'écart des voisins, près d'un sentier de randonnée. 3 terrasses, la piscine et un jardin avec différents niveaux et arboré laisse à chacun de profiter des extérieurs au grés de ses envies. La maison quant à elle est spacieuse et atypique comme on aime. Là aussi il est agréable d'y vivre à plusieurs. Chacun peut avoir sont petit coin à soi. Pour notre part les deux hics qui ne nous permettent pas de mettre la 5ème étoile est la literie. Un lit d'enfant n'a pas de sommier, et 2 lits double sur 3 devraient être changés (matelas en mousse découpée et sommier en fer fichu). Le mobilier exterieur necessiterait une bonne révision et la batterie de poeles, faitout est assez vétuste. Sans partir sur du haut de gamme le changement des lits et casseroles et la révision du mobilier exterieur et c'est un 5 étoiles garanti !
We hebben een heerlijke week gehad in dit prachtige huis. De foto’s doen geen recht aan hoe het werkelijk is.
Het huis is geheel vrij gelegen, heeft veel grond met meeedere zitmogelijkheden en een fijn zwembad.
Op 10 minuten lopen (bergaf) is herbeoordeling met een prima bakker en een restaurantje.
Het huisbheeft een hele fijne grote keuken en is smaakvol ingericht.
We were enchanted by our stay at Le Soutenac , perfect for our twenty to fifty-something group of friends and family . The house is spacious and characterful - a home, not an identikit vacation rental . The gardens are extensive, secluded and home to fascinating ( and entirely benevolent ) local flora and fauna . There are sunny spots and shady areas for sipping, reading and dozing . The pool is easily large enough to tolerate numerous garish inflatables . Everything in the house worked to order , and Bergerac airport is a short and scenic drive to the South . In short, we absolutely loved the place and hope to be back .
Great house in fabulous location. We managed to trip the electricity as soon as we got there but the owners were so helpful and talked us through getting it started again. My only criticism would be that the photos do not do it justice!
wunderschönes Grundstück, toller Pool, verschiedene Möglichkeiten, um draussen zu sitzen, abgeschieden = toll, wenn man mal so richtig die Seele baumeln lassen will.
Keine Mücken, aber viele Wespen, die sich interessanter Weise am Poolwasser laben und nicht an Süßem, etc.
Wir kommen gerne wieder, alles sehr chill und gemütlich!

Thanks Tom, delighted that you had a good holiday. Look forward to welcoming you back!
Très belle demeure . Beaucoup de cachet et où l'on se sent tout de suite chez soi. Décoration originale. Cuisine conviviale et très bien équipée. Piscine immense. Parc -jardin très grand et très bien entretenu. Plusieurs terrasses aménagés avec point de vue différents sur le parc. Tous les membres de la famille ,quel que soit leur âge , ont trouvé leur espace préféré. Très belle découverte.
Nous avons passé une excellente semaine avec nos enfants et une autre famille.
La maison et les extérieurs sont tres agréables (grande cuisine, salon confortable, 2 tables pour déjeuner a l’extérieure (en fonction du moment de la journee).
Je loue des maisons depuis des annees, et elle restera comme l’une de mes préférées)
Seules reserves (les guêpes autour de la piscine et l’absence de rideaux aux velux)
Amazing place , just beautiful setting, very private, no neighbors, quiet, lots of outdoor sitting. The pool is magnificent and very began clean . We vacationed with my parents and 3 teens .there was plenty of rooms for everyone. Angela is super fast to communicate and very nice . Highly recommend this place .rural settings around the area .if you are looking for quiet time this is the place for you

Thanks Chrystal, so pleased you had a good holiday 😊
maison conviviale et confortable, tranquillité assurée
Séjour très agréable dans un cadre exceptionnel : belle maison, bien aménagée (on s'y sent bien), grande piscine (parfaite pour des adultes), divers espaces de repos et dîners, grand "parc" isolé et très calme, joli village.
Petits bémols : les guêpes autour de la piscine, la télé qui ne capte que des chaines anglaises...
