The welcome and check in process was easy, and friendly. The house is so designed that one bed and bathroom are one “side” of the main kitchen/living area and the other beds and bathrooms are on the opposite side of”side”. So useful for multigenerational families! Pool is excellent and separate pool towels provided (just too deep at shallow end for a 4 yo) but warm, and very well maintained. Housekeeping once a week kept sheets and towels refreshed. Washing machine and drier(s) mean one can travel light and refresh!Local markets and restaurants are of a v v high standard.Hard to find fault with the property, we will return.

The house is in a beautiful rural location, but close to the Bergerac, the airport and ancient villages with lively markets, restaurants and vineyards to explore. The interior is well designed, very comfortable, cool and well equipped. The garden is private, has outside furniture suitable for al-fresco dining, a large lawned area, a very clean pool, a games table, and bikes. It is also possible to walk in the fields and countryside.Contacting Yves was easy and he replied promptly, with timely details to find the property and to check-in. We were met at the house by Solange and Pierre the local keepers, shown around, and given all the information we needed for our stay. We immediately felt at home and would love to return. It is even more beautiful than the photographs show!!

Traditional gite but with all mod cons.

Spacious, comfortable gite although as the weather was so good spent most of time by or in the pool. Good location for exploring the Dordogne. Nearby Issigeac is a little gem with a really great Sunday market.

Fontoursine Holiday

We have stayed in a number of Gites in the Dordogne for a number of years now but this one is by far the best place we’ve stayed in. The location being 10 minutes drive to Bergerac airport and within easy access to the Bastide towns makes it an ideal base to explore the area. The property has everything you need and the manager, Chrystelle was so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely return to Fontoursine again in future

Superb 4 bed villa also good for 2

If you enjoy table tennis, cycling, swimming as well as lazing around the pool this is great. Everything you want is there and quality. Gas plate BBQ . We enjoyed 2 very comfortable beds. Hot showers. And a great quiet environment. We have been to the Dordogne 6+ times and this is the best by far. Blow your budget, book and enjoy - we did

Total peace and tranquillity at Fontoursine

This property affords all modern conveniences while preserving a rustic feel. It is very charming. The hosting support is excellent, and the pool very well maintained. Here you can enjoy an amazing array of wildlife and wild bird song undisturbed, while the speciality "vins liquereux" vineyards are also on your doorstep. Just a little distance away are the Vezere and Dordogne valleys, with gorgeous villages and prehistoric sites to see. There is something for everyone in the area. We recommend this property highly.

An oasis in the French countryside

This is simply the best French property we have ever stayed in. More a country estate than merely a house. Standing in huge gated grounds the house is a substantial old longeur with masses of charm. All rooms are very generous, with a huge vaulted kitchen diner, lovely separate sitting room, generous pretty bedrooms and well equipped bathrooms. The house very easily accommodates eight adults.Outside is a lovely terrace for dining next to the amazing pool. Perfect for chilled days. This is the perfect place for a complete escape but still within easy reach of local villages and Bergerac for great restaurants. Don’t miss the Sunday market at Issigeac!

Tranquility and all you could need

The property is within easy reach by car from Bergerac airport or station. It is surrounded by lush farmland and has complete privacy and safety for little ones. The owner and keyholder were totally welcoming. The house is beautiful and extremely well resourced, even central heating and air conditioning units. A super swimming pool, bikes, table tennis and loads more. There is masses to do in the region - fabulous markets, medeival historic towns, good cycling countryside, river canoing not too far away, fabulous produce and restaurants. And loads of nature. A tranquil and very very comfortable and easy stay.

Lovely property and lovely location. Solange was very efficient and helpful at check in and departure. The pool was fab and kept a good temperature using the cover at night. We did alot of cooking and there was plenty of equipment, crockery and glassware. The cooker and hob were easy to use and there is an outside hot plate but it was a little too cool at night for us to use. The bedrooms were comfortable and spacious, with good sized rooms. The toilets and shower rooms worked well for our party. The local town of Issignac is very pretty and lots of restaurants. We explored around the house using the bikes and on foot. There is so much to do and we also went kayaking on the Dordogne and wine tasting at the local vineyard as well as visiting local bastide towns. Great stay and hope to return.

Just right for us.

Lovely holiday had by all, in this beautiful house. The house ticked all our boxes, plenty of indoor and outdoor space, clean airy rooms, and of course the pool area, plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas. Ate most days outside, as weather so good. The house was lovely and cool, on those hot days, though the garden has plenty of shade, if required We are a family of 6 adults, who love to holiday in France. The area has plenty to offer, from the market in Issigeac, which is a must, it is a lovely friendly town, to wander around, stop for refreshments, and plenty of history too, also a visit the Chateau de Bridoire, and everything inbetween. The family are all in agreement, we will return. Thankyou for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful house.

On our arrival day, we were able to check in early as Solange and Pierre (the caretakers) let us know that the house was ready for us. This was a great start, as we were in the area well before time.We were greeted very warmly by Solange and Pierre and within 10 minutes they had shown us everything necessary and we were able to settle in immediately.The house, grounds and pool are beautiful and suited our every need.We were joined by my wife’s elderly parents, who were equally delighted with every aspect of their stay. The house is very well suited to multi-generational living, with the layout allowing privacy for all parties.This is the twelfth house that we have rented for our summer holidays in France, and we can honestly say that it is the best, thank you, Yves!Rob & Clare

About the host

Hosted by YVES PACQUET

Host profile image
Family house in the heart of a farm bought in 1956 by my parents.
Since I have chosen another profession, I have kept this farm of 17 ha of woods and meadows surrounding the house.

Why they chose this property

Since I live in the Paris area for work, and I cannot be in this house during the whole year, I renovated it and I have chose to rent it to maintain a constant high-level of amenities.

What makes this property unique

With 300 m of private access and an electric gate, this house is at the centre of a fenced park of 17 ha, ideal for relaxing and quiet holidays without being isolated from everything.
You will enjoy the private pool in complete peace.
The village of Issigeac is 3 km away and less than 5 min by car. It offers all the amenities like doctors, pharmacies, minimarkets, bookshops, butcheries, restaurants, bakeries and pastry shops... and let's not forget the well-known Sunday market.
Right in the Perigord Pourpre, in the middle of the AOC vineyards of Bergerac, you are also 5 km from the Castle of Monbazillac and its unique white wine.
Numerous outstanding sites and castles are in close proximity and they confirm the richness of the heritage of the Perigord Pourpre.
