Peaceful Charming Authentic French Countryside Cottage
We were on a three week holiday from Canada to eventually visit the Dordogne region in France, and wanted a tranquil peaceful place to stay for several days to start our journey after a long drive from Paris. Your charming, delightful cottage in the French country side was exactly what we were looking for. The view the from bedroom window overlooking a farmers field was the perfect way to start our mornings, and the rustic petite patio in the back leading to the backyard field was a perfect place for for us to share a good bottle of French wine in the evenings. The fruit from the pear and apple trees in the back were an added bonus.
Lovely house in an exceptional location. The kitchen was extremely well equipped making cooking for a two week stay much easier. Throughout the house lots of thought had gone into what was needed to enhance a stay. Communication with our hosts was easy, with fast and efficient responses.
Tres belle petite maison, super équipée, très agréablement décorée. La literie est parfaite. Le jardin est agréable. Les voisins sont charmants et serviables.
Seuls petits bémols : l'accès au garage un peu difficile et l'absence de wifi.
Séjour très reposant dans cette jolie maison décorée avec soin et très fonctionnelle, située dans un hameau très calme. Extérieur très agréable également.
La région est très jolie et offre de belles possibilités de balades.
Lovely place, area, surroundings ..with a lot of thought into providing all that might be necessary. Thankyou
The host also had a local guy on hand, Chris, to oversee which was reassuring. :)
Très heureux de notre séjour au Montillon. Le lieu dit a beaucoup de charme. La maison aussi. Vieilles pierres et beau jardin. La maison est très bien équipée et décorée avec goût. La literie est d'excellente qualité. Communication facile avec le propriétaire Martin. Je recommande.
La propriété de Lisa et Martin est très accueillante. Nous nous y sommes posés avec délice. Nos chaudes journées ont été ponctuées de baignades en rivière et aux lacs environnants. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir.
