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. ##### Kylie B.

We walked for fresh bread and croissants every morning, explored the region and then refreshed in the pool and listened to the frogs in the pond every evening. The home has such incredible history and we spent the entire week exploring the Dordogne and Vezere river valleys, gardens and castles and falling in love with the medieval town of Sarlat. We hope to come back again soon. ##### Adrienne O.

The chateau is surrounded by beautiful gardens and nature. The sounds, smells, and views are spectacular. It has a convenient location yet feels very private. The bedrooms are comfortable and the bathrooms are numerous, clean, and pleasant. There are many places to sit and relax including the excellent rooftop deck. The stairs to the three second floor bedrooms are a bit steep but with good railings. There are many choices of dining areas, indoor, outdoor, sunny, shady. The pool is lovely but there is no hot tub. There are many pleasant short walks around the house. The nighttime sounds are wonderful. The flowers, gardens, and art work are interesting and a joy to behold! We highly recommend this petit chateau. ##### Johnna E.

There is a good boulangerie within a short walk and a fish and chips truck that was excellent that is set up once a week near there. The house has great outdoor spaces, but the weather did not cooperate for us to use the pool(which appears to be very nice). The house is in a lovely rural area but is an easy drive to Sarlat and other places of interest. The owner was great to deal with and we had no problems. We would strongly recommend staying here! ##### John M.

From the terrace amazing views surrounded by nature .The magical sound of the scop owl and saw deer grazing in the field. Pool just the right temperature despite the unseasonably cool weather. Boulangerie was walking distance from the property lovely bread and patisserie daily. Downstairs bathroom really is room with a view got to be seen to be believed! Plenty to do in surrounding area whatever the weather, picturesque villages spoilt for choice. If interested in archaeology very informative tour at Cap Blanc rock shelter. I would recommend this petite chateau for a very memorable stay. ##### catherine t.

After the first week, my son and a friend of his had to leave, and our friends from Germany arrived. It was very kind of the staff, that they changed linnen etc on Saturday, we thank You very much. We enjoyed of course the pool und the beautiful garden. But we also enjoyed the fully eqipped kitchen, every evening we had beautiful meals. And last but not least: We were happy about the hiking paths in and aroud St. André, we made serveral tours from here to highlights of the region. ##### Dr. Johannes P.

We had an absolutely delightful stay at this petite chateau in the heart of the Dordogne region! The property is exactly as described-charming, comfortable, and rich with history, but also equipped with all the modern amenities that made our stay incredibly relaxing. The views from the house are simply stunning, and we loved spending time in the various outdoor seating areas, soaking in the serene surroundings. The location couldn't have been more perfect. Nestled in a quaint village, it was peaceful yet so convenient. The local boulangerie was just a short away, and we started every morning with fresh pastries. The chateau was the perfect base for exploring the amazing Dordogne region and its' beautiful natural landscape, visiting picturesque villages, numerous chateaus, gorgeous gardens and eating delectable regional delicacies. We enjoyed every moment of our stay and would love to return again in the near future. Highly recommend! ##### Jeannette L.

We used the location to explore the region and had easy access to Sarlat, Beynac, Castelnaud, Domme etc. Highlight was a kayak trip on the Dordogne river past castles and beautiful villages. Also a day in Montignac to see Lascaux. We enjoyed the well marked hiking trials that left right from the house. There are too many beautiful places in the area to name and you could go to a market everyday if you want. After a day sightseeing we would sit out on the tower to enjoy apero and the sunset, then cook a meal. Bedrooms were spacious and everyone had an en suite bath. The front door initially gave us problems but we figured it out with some fidgeting. Weather didn’t permit us to take advantage of the pool. Next time! ##### Sarah G. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lynn Leary H. 17 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tucked In a Rural Commune The stone house, created from a blacksmithy, was quite a change for us Americans. The older parts of the structure accommodated to modern life in fascinating ways. The setting is delightful, with gardens and a well-tended swimming pool on the grounds and a splendid view. We quickly began a custom of playing cards after dinner at the top of the turret, where we took in the late sunsets over the Perigord forest. Wildflowers bloomed along the roads, and gardening was in full swing. It was the time of hydrangeas and artichokes. Our initial happy visit at the nearby boulangerie finished with dashed expectations as we found that they would be closed the next two weeks for vacation. Charles, doubtless you had not idea, but we felt you had broken a promise! We found a few more places to pick up bread and pastries as we traveled in and out of Sarlat and over to Les Eyzies. Being near the caves was good, as they were one reason for being in the Dordogne. And canoeing was delightful and handy. There are plenty of markets, so that we could find one every day if we liked. The narrow D roads were picturesque everywhere we went, with the added feature of castles on many hills. We visited a few, including Puymartin and Les Milandes. All in all we returned happily to our little castle each evening, where many nights we fixed dinner in the well-equipped kitchen, and had our choice of beautiful dining settings. ##### Lynn Leary H. Stayed 14 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ingrid M. 4 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### An enchanted September at Maison Grise... marred by the absence of A/C. Méteo-France marked September the hottest since measurements began in 1900\. I booked the house last September with family and friends for the entire month and the A/C was listed among its facilities/equipment. It is still to this day. Due to the high temperatures, the three upstairs bedrooms turned into veritable furnaces, and the downstairs area, which tended to be somewhat cooler, did not provide much relief either. To spare future renters the disappointment, I recommend to those who plan to visit the ‘petit château’ during the summer months, to first verify with the owner to ascertain that, in the meantime, an A/C system has been installed or book the house during the cooler months because a holiday in Maison Grise is truly a wonderful and unique experience with its shabby chic furniture and décor, magnificent view and lovely gardens and pool, and its exceptional location for touring a region that boasts of splendid castles and gardens, and fine cuisine. Kudos to the house managers, who are friendly and efficient. On a final note, during the first 2 weeks of September, the huge fig tree opposite the entrance to the house and the front verandah was bursting with ripe fruit and, therefore, attracted armies of wasps. They became a nuisance and could present danger to those allergic to stings. ##### Ingrid M.

We all had a lot of fun in the pool, made good use of the bbq and different dining areas outside, enjoying the amazing views. The property has a lovely quirky French atmosphere and is well equipped. We canoed on the Dordogne and enjoyed re-discovering an area we visited several times many years ago. Three generations made the most of a too-short week. ##### Elaine R.

It was perfect as we visited the surrounding areas during the day and were able to cool off in the pool every evening. Charles and Anne were lovely hosts, and answered all our questions promptly. I wished we could had another week! ##### A C.

Charles and Ann’s home was a true treat to rent. It was the perfect base to explore the region. And after a busy day of visiting this incredible area, we were always thrilled to come back to the house to enjoy wine on the tower terrace. The owners were very responsive and the home is simply lovely. We will definitely be back! ##### Amy M.

The property has a lot of character and great outdoor spaces. The best part was the pool which we really enjoyed during the heat wave we had. The owners were very responsive to any questions. ##### Emmanuel L.

The view from the top of the tower is breath-taking. Charles and Anne where fantastic and very accommodating. If you are a fan of the area, this is the base for you. House comes with everything you need. Can't thank them enough for the support and messaging in tough times. ##### Kieran R.

The tower and its circular staircase was a big draw for our teenage son; and aperitifs at the top every evening a highlight for the adults as we watched hot air balloons gently drifting across the valley. The house was very comfortable and each bedroom having its own bathroom was a bonus. The location was ideal for us, near Sarlat with many places to see - Beynac was our personal favourite - and things to do within easy reach. The owners were very helpful before we arrived and quick to answer any queries too. We couldn't have wished for more and were sad that we had to leave. ##### David H.

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. ##### Patricia P.

Gorgeous house, very well appointed, great bedrooms and bathrooms. There is a comfy, open, cozy ground floor area containing dining, kitchen and living areas with 2 big fireplaces at each end. The size of the house was perfect for 8\. The surroundings of the property are delightful in their diversity of flowers, bushes, trees, all dispersed among the different terraces. This lovely home, wonderfully located 6 km from the little medieval town of Sarlat in Perigord, has a spirit, and it is a welcoming and joyful one. I really hope that we will have the opportunity to return for another stay in this little paradise. ##### Helene M.
