un peu decevant
Nous avons eu un très bel accueil, les hotes etaient charmants et à l'ecoute cependant le logement etait un peu decevant... très rudimentaire! un canapé lit peu confortable; lits petits, frigidaire petit pour 5 personnes...l’éclairage un peu juste surtout en soirée et lors des journées pluvieuses! la piscine a été une bonne surprise plus grande que ce que l'on attendait!

Sejour idyllique
Gite très propre, renové avec goût, nous y avons passé une excellente semaine. Petite piscine hors sol idéale pour se rafraîchir, cadre extrêmement calme au milieu des champs et forêt, un cadre apaisant et bucolique qui nous a ressourcé petits et grands. Brantôme est magnifique, les visites et activités alentours ne manquent pas, et les hôtes Julia et Keith sont très gentils et accueillants. Merci pour tout, nous avons grandement apprécié nos vacances !

Een sfeervol huisje
Wij hebben een leuke vakantie gehad in een geweldig huisje het enige wat minder was zijn de veren die wij door het matras heen voelden die eigenlijk aan vervanging toe is en iets meer privacy van Keith maar verder top

About the host

Hosted by Julia and Keith

Host profile image
We both grew up in UK. Keith in London and Julia in Wales, Cardiff and west wales.
Keith loves the hot temperatures reached here but for Julia it's the glorious countryside and peace that drew her.
You can hardly turn a corner without seeing a beautiful view or charming hamlet.
Keith has managed a printers business and the became a driver, Julia bought up her family before studying art and then worked for local government in the occupational therapy team for 13 years. She sometimes returns to work in the learning disabilities team.

Why they chose this property

Apart from the beautiful location and high summer temperatures, there is a certain energy here difficult to find elsewhere. It's calm and sustaining yet energising at the same time.

What makes this property unique

Here are what some of our guests said
Arnaud '' really can sleep well there as there is absolutely nobody around, no roads, etc. Just the sound of birds !”
