The property was well-located bearing in mind our planned activities: visiting (Rocamadour, Domme and Chateau de Castelnaud), swimming (Quercyland), and canoeing (35km from Calviac-en-Périgord to Beynac-et-Cazenac). The small swimming pool at the property was great for cooling off the kids (and adults) at the end of hot days in the sun. There was a good selection of garden equipment for the kids (swings, slides, bikes, table-tennis, etc), and garden furniture (including BBQ) for relaxing in the evenings. The provision of UK satellite TV was helpful in terms of entertaining the children. The property was quiet and peaceful, set within beautiful countryside, although near enough to Sarlat to enable quick visits to the shops (e.g. the E. Leclerc hypermarché). The property looked a little more tired in terms of decoration than it had done in the promotional photographs, but that is often the case and everything was actually clean and functional. The gite's friendly and helpful owners welcomed us warmly on our arrival, and were willing to respond to any questions or concerns that we had during the week. That was reassuring. Overall, we had a really enjoyable week.
