l'Olivier,gite avec piscine situé entre Sarlat et Rocamadour,classé 3 étoiles

The three double rooms catered for our family well. Very restful and quiet but with loads to see and do locally. Really rate the area and would happily return.

The L'Olivier Gite was typical rural French property, plenty of old style charm in a very peaceful setting well off the beaten track. The pool offered a welcome way to cool off. The location was perfect for exploring , with the well known attractions in every direction within 30-50 minutes, the local town of Gourdon with a good supermarket or two. The Dordogne exceeded my expectations, it is both breath taking in beauty and incredibly interesting geographically and historically. The Gite was generally well equipped, we did need to buy some plastic ware to take down to the pool (rather than glass), the internet was slower than snails pace (0.05MB/sec!) and I would usually prefer to see fewer spiders in the property - but that could reduce the rustic charm. The same could be said for the garden - less manicured than the English country garden, perhaps more laisser faire is the French style. The hosts were charming and unobtrusive. Overall we loved it!

The property was exactly as described and pictured on their website and perfect for us (2 adults, 2 children). It was clean and well maintained and we have particulary apreciate barbecue, pool and the big garden with table tennis. we recommend this cottage.
