The best sunset view and lovely large house with pool
We had a great stay and there's plenty to see relatively nearby. Lots of kitchen equipment, wifi was fine and the pool was a great size. The views were amazing too.
definitely follow the advice of the owners to view nearby ancient villages and we went quite far out one day to Carcassone as it's incredible but a 2 hour drive. Lots local though. The supermarket around 15 mins drive away too.

Holiday in the hills
An amazing house, full of charm, beautiful farm house, so much space. Everything you need, only wished our teenagers used WiFi less, but on such hot days it suited them and we got our peace and quiet listening to the birds and wildlife, swimming in the refreshing pool.
Lovely touches with a trinket box for my jewellery, hand cream by the sink, flowers we were happy to water. lovely eating areas, great TV, again for teenagers, but great to watch The Commonwealth Games. Stunning views across the hills, beautiful sunsets and The stars were amazing.
Lovely villages and rivers for days out, great shops. Loved the day of canoeing on the river, and float up to cafes. The house has everything you need, clean comfortable beds. Fans in each room, but loved the windows open listening to the sounds. Great Market in The Beautiful San Antonin de Val, Penne lovely as to Surrounding villages,
The Pool…❤️ Great memories made,
Very sad to leave .

Wonderful stay in French Countryside
If you are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of modern life then this is surely it. Really quiet except for the sounds of birds and the occasional deer roaming in the fields next to you.
Lovely house with stunning views and great pool. 20 mins from main supermarket and just 10 mins to local shops. We loved it.

Week in July with family group of 10
Excellent pre trip communication with owner Anne who is super helpful !The farmhouse is as beautiful as in the picture, lovely inside space and thoughtful provisions, utensils etc. Excellent pool. So peaceful and butterflies were amazing! It’s somewhat remote, which was unnerving for some of our city accustomed party, but once persuaded outside they too enjoyed the outside space. Surprisingly no flies / pests!Must play boules! Fantastic fun! Even got to see the Tour de France pass by a km away!!! Fabulous places to visit not far. Loved Cordes-sur-Ciel. Need to plan shopping for food as larger stores are 30 -40 minutes or so . We needed more fans as weather was hot and were swiftly reimbursed. Met the housekeepers as we were leaving who were lovely. Excellent value and highly recommended! Thanks so much! This place certainly lived up to its reviews!

Stone farmhouse restoration with lovely garden. Perfect. Seclusion. Only noise is wildlife which is varied and interesting (Lizards/Deer/butterflies in abundance/humming bird moths/Jays/nightingales/amongst many others). Facilities great. Beautiful house and spot great. Pool super with views over the wooded valley. Stunning sunsets. Plenty of space indoors and outdoors for family meals. Accessible for markets and supermarkets about 9-13 miles away. Two fridge/freezers. TV with wifi. Table tennis table. Nearby country restaurants. Amazing gravity defying castles in nearby Bruniquel and Penne. Local Kayaking. Cordes sur Ciel easy drive away (medieval Artisanal Village-visit a must). You can do lots or as little as you wish. You can eat out or cook local produce at home or BBQ it. Washing machine and dishwasher in kitchen. Linger late into the warm evening with a glass of your favourite and let all cares and worries melt away. Embrace French lifestyle. We never go back to the same holiday home...this time however I think we will make an exception. Get thee behind me lad!

A wonderful stay
A beautiful house in a beautiful and quiet area. Nice views. Lots of space in and arround the house. Very nice and large swimmingpool. Beds were for a few of us (allmost 2 meters and 95+ kilograms) too small and could have been a bit firmer. Communication with owner was very fine. We had a very nice stay and a wonderful holiday.
