Maison / villa avec piscine chauffee avec acces direct a la riviere La Dordogne

This is a well positioned, fantastically equipped and welcoming home. The pool is warm and inviting and if you don’t want to drive anymore, Cenac is within walking distance. If you need it, the owners have provided it and right in the heart of the Dordogne's best attractions. We loved it and hopefully will return one day. Even the dog didn’t want to leave having spent most of the week in the river. Great place.

Le titre de cette appréciation résume notre opinion, qui est très très positive.

Great location by the river. Lovely house.

The pictures online don't fully illustrated the qualities of this property. First of all, the house is much bigger than it seems; there are 5 double bedrooms and three full baths. It's not only functional and pleasant but also warmly decorated. We spent 8 days there in the worst heat France has known in a long time, much talked about internationally, yet we were fine in the house. The two upper bedrooms have individual AC units. The lower level bedrooms were kept cool by their insulation, the ceiling fans and cross ventilation. We loved the pool but even more the river which, at that point has a huge area of flat rocks about foot under the water, an ideal place to lie down and contemplate the scenery while being cooled and massaged by the water. We also walked up to the bridge and swam down. There is a path along the river, a bit hard to notice, that goes up toward the bridge and also down all the way to La Roque Gageac. We were also lucky to be there when there was still some lingering linden flower and wisteria fragrance, which gave the garden an even more idyllic atmosphere. And at night it made swimming under the star a magical experience. When we looked at the location online we were a bit concerned by the proximity of a campground, imagining rowdy crowds but, at least during our stay, it had only super well equipped RV vehicles, and only middle aged couples. Sarlat is very close and definitely worth visiting but awfully touristy so we went through it quickly and preferred to eat elsewhere; he best was the Cantine at Daglan, about 20 min drive south, which we discovered thanks to the many brochures provided in the house. We also found walking in Domme more enjoyable. Of course there were also some minor negatives, for instance the condensation of the humidity on the cold lower level floor, but that was only during the 2 hottest days. It would also help to have a better floor squeegee for the lower bathroom.

The house and the location were perfect. The owner is lovely and helped us several times with minor issues. The Pool is huge and warm. The house stayed quite cool despite temperatures of 37 degrees some days. The Aircon in the upper bedrooms was appreciated. The kitchen is really well stocked with everything you could think of for a self catering holiday. I would definitely stay in this house again but perhaps out of main season as although the house remained very peaceful the area was extremely busy in August.

Das Haus ist sehr groß, größer als es auf den Bildern erscheint. Es war sehr sauber, alles Notwendige war vorhanden und in sehr gutem Zustand. Auf der Terasse kann man herrlich sitzen. Der Kontakt mit dem Vermieter war außerordentlich freundlich. Die Lage des Hauses ist einmalig - direkt an der Dordogne! Die vielen Kanus im Sommer stören nicht, es ist insgesamt sehr ruhig. Der Garten ist riesig, der Pool ist groß und wird gepflegt, man kann dort völlig ungestört Zeit verbringen. Der Ort Cenac ist nur wenige Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt, es gibt dort alles, was man benötigt. Man kann Kanu fahren, wandern, eine Radtour machen oder Stand-up-Paddling - alles in unmittelbarer Nähe. Traumhaft war eine Ballonfahrt über die Dordogne. Fazit: Ein wunderbarer Urlaub!

The house is amazing and the location perfect: 5 very large bedrooms, modern and well equipped kitchen, very pleasant covered back porch for meals overlooking large yard gently sloping towards the Dordogne, with fruit trees and a lovely, warm swimming pool. Cenac, the village within walking distance from the house is charming but also fairly quiet, away from the very touristic nearby Roque Gageac and Beynac. It was easy to be a tourist in the morning with many sites/activities less than an hour away, and then relaxing in the afternoon in the very comfortable house. The hosts are lovely, we will certainly be back. Thank you !
