Your own Petit Chateau near Sarlat, private pool and tower with battlements!

Our group of 6 adults really enjoyed our stay at the castle. Having afternoon drinks on the turret watching the hot air balloons float by was magical..Close to bolangerie & grocery.

Charles and Anne are excellent hosts, answering all of our queries in a helpful and timely manner. The property is beautiful with fantastic views, often with added hot air balloons. Lots of places to sit outside in any weather. It is also very well located in a picturesque village which is a short drive from La Roque Gageac, Sarlat, etc. The bakery and pizza place in the village are not to be missed!There is a wide variety of birds and butterflies in the pretty gardens and immediate surroundings plus some lovely frogs in the fish pond.Guests should be aware that there is no “welcome pack” of essentials like bread, milk, etc. as is common in UK holiday rentals. There is an excellent E.Leclerc supermarket nearby but be aware of opening/closing times. A torch is helpful if arriving after dark to help you get in.

Apart from not being able to open the front door on arrival, the home was fabulous.Little things.. more glasses needed! But great

We were very excited to stay here and our family had already nicknamed it the petit chateau! The house did not disappoint but rather exceeded our expectations. The communication with the owner was very easy and cordial. Having the rooftop to enjoy the view and watch the balloons in the evenings was very special and the kids really enjoyed it. The pool was a lovely temperature and in easy proximity to the house. There is no air conditioning in the house, which is to be expected for a building of this era but what is a nice surprise is you can leave the bedroom windows open most evenings without insects flying in and the interior cools off nicely. We met the property managers upon departure who were also great to deal with. My only suggestion would be a plush topper for the mattress and a larger pedestal fan in the Master bedroom but these are relatively minor observations. All in all and really enjoyable and successful stay… thank you Charles and Anne!

This house is quite unusual, with its spiral staircase up the tower to an amazing view over the Dordogne valley. It's comfortable, well equipped and family-friendly. We particularly liked the fact that upstairs is carpeted, while the thick walls and tiled floors downstairs meant it was always cool inside. It isn't isolated, with a small school and public tennis courts opposite, but it is secluded and at night the only sound was croaking frogs. Apart from swimming in the lovely pool, there's lots to do in the area for all ages (ours ranged from 4 to 70+) - we would love to go back.

This is a beautiful, historic chateau. We were thrilled to have the opportunity to stay in such a lovely place. The grounds and area are absolutely beautiful, peaceful and quiet. Good location as a base for many day trips to various towns and sites.

Lazy days beside the pool and dining Alfresco! Long lunches in Domme and Sarlat and trips to the picturesque towns nearby. We loved the shabby chic house and gardens and Charles, the host was a pleasure to deal with!

We were two families with four older children. Loads of room for everyone and a great location. Would definitely recommend this beautiful property with wonderful views of the local area and hot air balloons in the early mornings. The pool was great to cool off in and loads of different outdoor tables to eat al fresco. Plenty of fridge and freezer space for the larger family.
