"Spotless room, nice "

"The kitchen was very break equipped and the host provided basic supplies and a lovely bowl of fruit. Great base to explore the region."

"This was our second stay at this special property, and we had a wonderful time. The host and property manager are kind and helpful. The property is peaceful and well located to explore the area - it is also incredibly relaxing to just stay by the pool and river. We plan on a third visit!"

"We had a fabulous time at the villa, it was a lovely place to spend two weeks. The location is peaceful and pretty, the pool was a welcome retreat in the heat and the house itself was impressive. The air conditioning worked really well, as did all the appliances. The bathrooms were very nice and clean. We also took our cavapoo who enjoyed the large garden. While there is a fence or electric fence surrounding the majority of the property, we did not feel it was secure enough to let our dog off-lead as we knew there were areas he could get out or under, but he is a small dog. It got particularly hot while we were there (August - pure sun every day!) and we asked if there were any additional fans, the owner arranged for them to be with us the same day, which was greatly appreciated. Les Eyzies is a lovely small town and the villa is really well situated for exploring the region. During our stay we went on canoe trips down both the Vezere and Dordogne rivers, which we really enjoyed with our teenage sons. My parents also came with us and loved the area and house."

"We enjoyed our stay at the Paulhiac house very much. There were 11 of us - 2 grandparents, 4 parents, and 5 grandchildren from 8 to 19, and the property suited us extremely well. The owners live next door, and we found them friendly and helpful. Patrice looked after the pool in an unobtrusive way. In the hot weather the pool was essential . There is lots of space - fields and woods - around the house and garden, completely private.Within easy reach by car are several beautiful bastide towns or large villages, with excellent markets and interesting shops. We did not know about these and they were a fine discovery for us.It might be pointed out that the property is three separate buildings, but close together, sharing pool, terrace, kitchen etc. We have very few small niggles. The directions to the house were rather vague - a map would have helped. The kitchen equipment was good but for the lack of a sharp kitchen knife - a common problem we have found from past holiday houses. . In one bedroom (off the games room) there should be better curtain fittings. My daughter points out that there was no provision of washing up liquid, cloth/sponge of any kind, soap for washing hands, or dishwasher tabs. This made arrival on a weekend rather difficult (shops close at 1 on Sundays) and seems unnecessarily stingy. If I hadn't brought washing up liquid with us, we would have been totally stuck till Monday. But she says this is a small thing.We were very satisfied."

"Wonderful location and property. Beautiful pool and decking area overlooking Dordogne countryside with hot air balloons most mornings and evenings. Beatrice and Remy gave us a very warm welcome and showed us around the house when we arrived - they live just up the road so are available in case of any issues during the stay. Some lovely villages and towns within easy driving distance and Roque Gageac is a 45 min walk through the forest. Would highly recommend. "

"Lovely stay and sad to leave after a week. Well equipped (especially with kitchenware) and good facilities. Good water pressure for the showers and lots of fans for the hotter days. House felt spacious for our 2 families. Loved eating outside and utilising the games room, BBQ and of course the swimming pool! Everything was clean, tidy and well maintained. Really enjoyed the short walk downhill to the village restaurant. Beautiful surroundings and well connected for exploring Bergerac and the surrounding areas. Highly recommend a stay here! "

"Everything was just right, with an easy checking in process, help on hand if we needed it. The kitchen was very well equipped and the laundry facilities were particularly useful. The pool was enjoyed by everyone. This was a memorable time in a special place with our children and grandchildren. Our thanks to our hosts for providing such a wonderful venue."

"We loved our stay at this property. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming. They provided us with a delicious dinner on out first night and waking up to breakfast each morning was such a treat. Everything is home made and fresh! I also had a lovely massage which I would highly recommend. The pool area is relaxing and picturesque, while our gite had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We hope we can come backa again soon, "
