We found a dreamlike house in this quiet place and felt very comfortable there. It is a very lovingly furnished domicile, where it is wonderful to relax. The charming surrounding villages also invite to be visited. So, unfortunately, the week went by much too quickly.

My partner and I stayed for a second time at La Croix. It is such an ideal property if you're looking for peace, quiet, and really impressive sunsets. The house was clean and tidy again and Helen was responsive and so helpful in the check in/check out process. The days were full of sun by the pool and the evenings were full of local Bordeaux wine - we will definitely be back!
This is a lovely property. Helen the host helped with any question before and during our stay. The kitchen is well equipped with nice equipment and crockery. Certainly better than the usual rental kitchen. The location is very rural with hardly any passing traffic in the day. The pool is a great sun trap and gets the sun all day until the sun goes down. The views are just awesome and the photos on the site don’t do the these or the property justice really. There is a shooting and archery outfit a few km away which is fun for a few hours and local Boulangeries make great pastries and breads, but go in the morning or the good stuff will have gone! There is lots of leisure equipment also like table tennis, bbq, darts, bikes and boules ready to use in the property. We had a lovely relaxing week and really do recommend this place if you want a scenic, quiet piece of France to escape to.
Lovely property at the top of a hill in a very quiet area. The views are as good as they look in the pics. Very clean and great set up with everything you need, incliding some nice surprises like things for the pool and boule ready for you. The main living space is great and the kitchen is very well set up with everything you need for cooking (which is rare in rentals like this). The quirks of the property are highlighted in the description - it's got low ceilings upstairs, and the shower is underneath the main lviing area. Location is isolated but only 10 mins drive to bakery/grocery/restaurants. Overall we rate this place really highly and would stay again.
We spent 2 weeks at this great property with all the mod-cons necessary for a break from the busy world. The 1m deep pool was perfect for cooling off and provided great entertainment for our son. The views from the house, garden pool are as listed and offer great sun set views a night sky star gazing. The covered balcony is a great feature for outside eating or simply sharing a glass of wine while watching the sun set. The area under the walnut tree is great for outside dining while taking some shade from the sun catching the cooling breeze that runs up towards to property. Helen was very helpful with local suggestions during our stay. She was very focused on providing a comfortable stay. Not to detract from the property, there are 2 areas for consideration: - 1. The low ceilings on the 3rd floor are indeed low, so you must be prepared for a fair bit of crouching, especially those reaching 6ft. - 2. The portable Aircon unit covers the main kitchen/salon area only. Bedrooms are supplied with fans and so light sleepers may be disturbed by fan noise. We had a great time with our 8yr old son and returned home feeling refreshed and recharged. A beautiful property in an equally beautiful rural setting.
We had a lovely stay - the house is comfortable and well furnished, and the garden and pool are great. The setting is rural but there are plenty of towns and villages within driving distance. We have two young children and there was plenty to keep them entertained.
Three of us recently stayed at la Croix and found it to be ideal. We wanted somewhere in the middle of the countryside for a week of doing very little: we got just that. The house itself has a great layout. There's a big kitchen/dining/living room (with an air-con unit) and really nice additional dining/sofa area outside, where we ate every evening. The two bedrooms upstairs are absolutely fine in terms of size but headroom is limited as they're in the eaves. There is one bathroom upstairs. There is also a separate WC and shower on the ground floor level accessible from the outside of the house (from the courtyard). Since the weather was so nice, we spent very little time in-doors. The outdoor space is the real winner. There's a courtyard with a bbq and lawns down to the pool, which overlooks an uninterrupted view of the French countryside. We spent most (almost all) our time on the deck by the pool and had a large amount of rosé whilst watching the sunset. Helen, the liaison between guests and the owners, was so friendly and made everything incredibly easy. The house is set close to some very picturesque villages, to which we took the bikes one day. All in all, it was a fantastic place for what we wanted. The photos do it little justice. We would certainly like to return!
Wir waren als vierköpfige Familie für zwei Wochen in dem Objekt und können es uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Das Haus ist geräumig und sehr liebevoll eingerichtet, die Ausstattung lässt keinerlei Wünsche offen, selbst zwei Fahrräder und eine Tischtennisplatte sind vorhanden. Auf der überdachten Terrasse sitzt man sehr gemütlich und kann den Tag bei einem Glas Wein ausklingen lassen. Das große Grundstück liegt auf einem Hügel. Man hat einen wunderschönen Blick ins unverbaute Tal. Wer Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit sucht, ist hier genau richtig. In der Umgebung gibt es malerische Orte, Burgen und Flüsse zu entdecken. Ca. 10 Minuten benötigt man, um im nächsten Ort einkaufen und in netten Restaurants essen gehen zu können. Wir hatten eine traumhafte Zeit in La Croix.
