Our recent stay at the gite near Bergerac was an absolute delight. Nestled right next to the Dordogne River, the charming medieval building provided a truly unique and historic atmosphere. Beyond the location, what truly made the experience special were our wonderful hosts, Bob and Heather.
From the moment we arrived, Bob and Heather's warmth and hospitality were evident. They were incredibly attentive to our every need, ensuring our comfort and enjoyment throughout our stay. The thoughtful provisions they left, especially considering the Sunday afternoon supermarket closures, were a lifesaver! For those evenings spent relaxing indoors, the extensive selection of books and games provided endless entertainment.
The gite itself offered a well-equipped kitchen, perfect for preparing meals and enjoying the local produce. While the pool may not be heated, the sunshine proved more than enough to warm the water for refreshing dips. The location was ideal for exploring. Bergerac was easily accessible on foot, by bike, or by car, offering the perfect balance between relaxation by the river and exploring the charming town.
Bob's knowledge of the local restaurant scene was invaluable. His recommendations, including the specialties on the menus, were spot on, allowing us to indulge in the true flavors of the region. We highly recommend this gite for anyone seeking a memorable stay in a beautiful and historic location, with hosts who go above and beyond to ensure perfection.
