À propos de cet hébergement

French country gite, within walking distance of pretty village

Perfect for a relaxing holiday

We have just enjoyed an enjoyable, relaxing week at this charming and characterful gite. We travelled as a couple, and although the gite is small, it had everything we needed to make the week perfect. We spent a lot of time in and around the pool during the day and made plenty of use of the bbq and outdoor seating on an evening. We do unfortunately rely on the internet on our holidays so was pleased to find the wifi signal to be fairly reliable despite the rural location. The gite is off a quiet country road and is completely private, however there are some other properties close by to avoid feeling totally isolated. The village of Tocane Saint Apre is only about 3km away, and has everything you might need including a boulangerie, boucherie and Intermarche supermarket. I would also recommend the bistro Rouge in the village for a delicious lunch at a reasonable price. Thanks also to Karen for the loan of her bikes during our visit - it was a lovely way to collect our baguettes from the village, but also to explore the local area. This gite is perfect for any couple just needing 1 bedroom, but would still like to have the outdoor facilities of a larger property.

VIEILLE MAISON FATIGUEE SITUEE EN MILIEU (TRES) RURAL

Seuls les amateurs de très vieilles pierres et de campagnes profondes pourront apprécier le "charme" de ce gîte, avec tous les inconvénients des vieilles maisons et du milieu très rural. A ne pas tenter si vous n'aimez pas la rusticité d'une vieille maison au confort minimaliste, ni la présence des petites bêtes de la campagne qui viendront vous rendre visite.

Een aangenaam verblijf op een droomlocatie.

Voor ons is dit een droomlocatie in de Dordogne, vanboven op een heuvel met zicht op de zonnebloemvelden. Heel rustige omgeving en indien nodig toch een hulpvaardige buurvrouw dichtbij. Alles wat we nodig hadden in de gîte was aanwezig. Aangename ruime douche, een grote slaapkamer met een groot en goed bed. Een eigen zwembad voor ons tweetjes, wat een luxe. Voor ons is dit een toppertje om zeker naar terug te komen en te genieten van het Franse leven.

Thank you so much for the lovely review. Hope you can come back soon, best wishes Karen 🌻 For us, this is a dream location in the Dordogne, on top of a hill overlooking the sunflower fields. Very quiet area and if necessary a helpful neighbor nearby. Everything we needed in the gte was there. Pleasant spacious shower, a large bedroom with a large and good bed. A private pool for the two of us, what a luxury. For us, this is a topper to definitely come back to and enjoy French life.

Great location but tired & unclean property in need of TLC

The property is in a great situation, near a lovely town but in a rural location with a fantastic open aspect from the pool area. There are a handful of houses in the hamlet of Le Borie and the local road runs past the property but it is all very sedate. The property is 1.5-2 miles from the town of Tocane -Saint-Apre where there is a small supermarket, an excellent bakery (Boulangerie), a cafe/bar and a superb bistro called Cafe Rouge. Although the property felt very private for us, it is in the grounds of another larger property and if this was occupied by owners or guests it would definitely not feel the same. The property has a rural, rustic character and has been tastefully converted I would say some 10-15 years ago plus has had a deep and generous pool added to it's grounds. Here ends the good news.... Unfortunately, the property feels tired and is in need of some TLC. On arrival I had to cut back some vines to gain access to the property and the front door patio area was overgrown and unusable until I again cut things back. The path to the pool area was a sea of rotting cherries from the tree, again I cleared a path. Inside, the property was full of spiders webs and didn't feel particularly clean, so we had an hour or so of cleaning to do. The bed was odorous and grubby, there was no washable topper on the bed so I imagine it was infused with years of sweat etc. The fridge was turned off on arrival and does not contain a freezer compartment, no ice with a G&T on an evening then, plus the food we bought en-route spoiled. I have never stayed anywhere, in my 20 plus years of going to France, that didn't have at least a small freezer compartment! As for the lovely deep pool, watch your feet, the decking at the pool steps is rotten with several nail heads sticking up. Plus the pool soon started growing green algae at a rate of knots and on testing the water the pool had very little disinfectant / chlorine in it plus a low pH level. My wife suffered upset stomachs and I gained an ear infection we believe both came from the pool. As I have had previous experience with pools, I cleaned the pool and got the levels correct to make the pool safe. The local lady who looks after the property for the owners, told me off for doing this but her idea of cleaning the pool was to put the "robot" in for 30 mins mid-week. On the note of mid-week, don't expect a towel / bedding change.

Not great

The gite had a rather musty smell inside which we found unpleasant. When you opened the cupboards/drawers to take out utensils again the smell was not good. Very dusty and spiders behind bedside tables We also felt the cushions that went on the sunloungers weren't too clean. Overall very disappointed and consequently left two days early.

Lovely and quiet.....

Perfect location, very pretty scenery all the way around the gite. The gite itself was very private and quiet with plenty of outside seating areas to relax and enjoy the views. Inside was very clean and comfortable, and the building itself very quaint with lovely old fashioned beams and eye catching details. We found the gite was the perfect getaway from everything for us. Had plenty of pans etc if you wanted to cook, a good range of crockery, cutlery, cups, and drinking glasses. The bed was fantastically comfortable, and even in the heatwave of up to 39 degree days we had in the second week, the bedroom remained nice and cool. Great bathroom with huge shower, plenty of hot water at all times. Pool, was a nice size and great for cooling off in especially when the temperatures soared. About 3 k from the pretty little village of Tocane St Apre. We had some really lovely day trips out, went to various markets and pottered about in the beautiful countryside. Shopping for food etc was easy as there is a big intermarche just out of Tocane and a market on Mondays. It was made very easy to pick day trips out with lots of information left at the gite. We had access to the internet as well so all in all it was perfect for us. Karen was very helpful all the way along through our booking, and arrival. She gave us all the information we needed so it was a very easy and stress free experience. We really enjoyed our stay of just over 2 weeks and would love to come to stay again!

Amazing quiet location and stay

We had such a relaxed stay at this beautiful cottage. Set in the middle of lovely countryside, we had a very chilled week away. Karen provided everything we needed and was a superb host - leaving us wine and bread to welcome us at the cottage. The pool was lovely and the evenings watching the sun set were so good. We also travelled with a 5 month old and everything was great for the little one - including Karen providing us with blankets and a chair for him. Would go back in a heartbeat. A great place to unwind.

Perfect retreat for peace and tranquillity.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful gite. It is set in the most tranquil spot surrounded by rolling fields and woodland, ideal for a peaceful get away with great views. The pool is fantastic and gets the sunshine all day and into the evening's. The gite is well equipped and has such a comfy bed.You are close enough to the village, that is well served with a butcher, baker, supermarket, bar, restaurants etc. It is also ideally located to explore the whole of the Perigord region. Can't wait to go back.

Secluded & tranquil

My partner and I had a great holiday. We loved the location overlooking fields of sunflowers and 5 minutes drive or 15 minutes cycle ride to the village with its weekly market and boulangerie etc. We spent most days cycling down peaceful country lanes and roads to villages and towns where we'd have lunch, and then on arriving back at the house, diving into the pool and later, dinner on the terrace under the stars. This really is a complete 'get away from everything' location. Internet excepted though, we valued the wifi to help map out cycle routes and read up on the various interesting places we visited. The bathroom has a great shower, the kitchen - living area is small but well equipped and compact and cosy. The bed is big and comfortable. The property was clean and well-kept, and the owner and local manager could not have been more helpful. We definitely would recommend the house.

Boulangerie the Providence

We enjoyed two weeks of our holiday in Boulangerie the Providence. La Borie is a very small hamlet on a hill. The view is beautiful. Here you can enjoy the silence. The house is neat and contains everything you need. The decor of the house is tasteful. We enjoyed every day of the main pool. Muriël, yhe neighbor, hands over the key, she is very nice and helpfull. Walk to Tocane takes half an hour, bij car 5 minutes. There is a bakery, butcher and supermarket. In Riberac there is a hypermarché (Leclerc). Restaurant Rouge in Tocane is great. Aubeterre is a beautiful village in the area. Friday market in Riberac is large. Perigieux is fun to visit, Bergerac is a beautiful place. From Roque Gageac, a 2 hour drive, you can create a beautiful canoe trip on the Dordogne. The area is not as busy as the eastern side of the Dordogne. Boulangerie de Providence is a very good place to anyone who loves peace. Sandra, Albert, Meike, the Netherlands

A peaceful paradise!

My partner and I stayed here for a week at the end of July and couldn't have asked for a more peaceful and relaxing holiday. Although we'd both wanted to visit this part of France for some time it was our first trip to the Dordogne and we both hope very much that it won't be our last. The gite was exactly as described on the website and more than lived up to our expectations. It was just the sort of rural retreat we were hoping for, clean, tidy and just perfect for the two of us. The location, surrounded by fields of wheat and spectacular sunflowers was idyllic, quiet and secluded without being too remote. We spent most of the time sat by the fabulous pool reading and drinking the odd glass of wine! And in the evening we lit the barbie and ate out under the stars! When we did venture out, a visit to the beautiful town of Brantome was probably the highlight. That said, Sunday lunch in the courtyard of the auberge in nearby Montagrier was fabulous, as was dinner at the Le Moulin du Pont restaurant in Lisle, they even have their own trout farm. And whatever you do, stop off at Rouge, a great little bistro/hotel in the centre of Tocane St Apres. It's only five minutes away by car and the food was superb. It's fair to say we thought it was one of the best holidays we'd ever had and frankly, we can't wait to go back!

Rural Paradise!

We were really happy with this little cottage, it was a perfect size for two people and even accomodated an extra visiting adult for a few nights in relative comfort. It really is a place in the sunflowers, they grow in the fields all around the property and give such a beautiful and relaxing view from the swimming pool. The weather had been cool before we visited so the pool was cool but it warmed up whilst we were there and we swam every day and ate our meals outside. The pool is a good size and clean and well maintained. The cottage is full of character, with rough walls but it is stylish, fully modernised and very comfortable. The bed was huge and the darkness total which is always a recipe for a god night's sleep! Unlike many holiday properties the plumbing worked faultlessly and the shower was powerful and hot. The little kitchen was great, we cooked most evenings and it had all the utensils and pans we needed. There is no dishwasher or washing machine but we really didn't notice their absence. Everything was clean and well maintained. English television was also a good feature although we didn't watch much - there is a DVD player and some films to watch if all the relaxing becomes too much. The village is about half an hour's walk away and is utterly charming - a little market on Mondays, two bars and a restaurant (the bars also do food). We found the restaurant a bit quirky as it was run by a New Zealander and the menu was a bit international but the bars were traditionally French and very good value. A well stocked supermarket is a further 10 minute walk from the centre of the village. We saw deer in the fields around the cottage, there was plenty of birdlife and the insects were not intrusive! We really enjoyed our time at the cottage and would recommend it to anyone seeking an 'away from it all' holiday. We can;t wait to return!

A place in the sunflowers

We had a lovely stay here. It's a really beautiful and romantic spot, the gite has been beautifully renovated and had everything we needed. CHeck out the boulangerie in the village for fantastic pain aux raisons (but get there early, they sell out quickly!). There’s some lovely restaurants nearby too, all in all a pretty perfect holiday.
