Avis Quiet cottage of the Perigord, 600 m away from the Villereal fortified village

Très bien situé, au calme, avec commerces à proximité, à environ 50 km de la Dordogne de la Vézère et du Lot ainsi que de nombreux sites magnifiques à visiter

Endroit tres sympathique. Compagnon voisin ( le cheval de son nom Instant d’amour ) genial qui adore les carottes. En revanche ATTENTION la cloture/fil du terrain est électrifié. Photo non conforme ( la maison est divisée en deux une partie est habitée. L’autre partie est louée)Gites bien en revanche pas mal de choses à ameliorer et à savoir: une prise par piece donc penser Aux multiprises. Beaucoup d’insectes surtout le soir donc prendre des repulsifs. Le tri des poubelles est tres contraignant il n’y a pas de containers et aucun accès à ceux de la ville. Beaucoup de vaisselle mais outils de base deffectueux ( ouvre boite, tire bouchon’ pas de ciseaux) uniquement deux chaises longues en pas tres bon etat ( il faut appeler la propriétaire pour en avoir en plus) En revanche bonne literie Malgré tout ça tres bon séjour il y a Énormément de choses à voir

Proprieté bien tenue et propre

Gite agreable calme propre tout près de toutes ballades et decouvertes

Très agréable séjour dans cette maison Périgourdine au coeur de la nature, bien équipée, bonne literie la propriétaire donne d'intéressantes informations sur les lieux à visiter. A conseiller.

House has lots of character as it is a very old building, so don't expect too much in the way of modern comfort. Owners very friendly and helpful. They clearly wanted us to have a good experience and were very patient with our lack of French. With phone translation app, we got along fine. Kitchen is fairly well equipped. Lounge/dining area is compact but serviceable. The soft seating space is limited, but fine for two. The spacious garden area is fully fenced and secure, which was ideal for our dog. The friendly horse in the field next door likes carrots and was an added source of interest for our dog. The double bedrooms have standard double beds, which were a bit narrow for us as we have been spoiled for years with super-king size sleeping space, so we opted to use the twin room upstairs. I found the firm mattress very comfortable. My husband had trouble with his back - bed was a bit too firm for him. The house needed a lot of time with the heating on to maintain a comfortable temperature, but we were visiting in mid November, so that didn't come as a surprise. The house is easy walking distance to Villereal, which is a lovely historic bastide town (beau village) with all the services we needed, including a friendly, helpful car mechanic. We would definitely rent this property again.

There is no lounge so there are no comfortable chairs to relax in although we were provided with a swivel armchair from another property. The small bench seat in the alcove next to the fireplace is not acceptable. As the property has beds for six people we expected a better level of comfort, are guests expected to sit on the hard chairs around the dining table ? It is fortunate that there only the two of us staying. There is a DVD player but no DVDs. The handrail on the stairs does not reach the top so it is dangerous. There is no wall mirror only a small one in the shower room which was not convenient. Some of the cooking equipment is inadequate. The gas /electric oven is very strange as it includes a dishwasher ! The external photo must be old as the house is now surrounded by quite mature trees. We got the impression that the whole house would be our but actually it is split in two with a permanent resident next door. This was not a problem but nevertheless misleading. The wifi mention is actually available in the town centre not on site. Only ten minutes walk away though. Lovely area for exploring.
