Timeless Charm in Périgord

This 300-year-old holiday home near St. Léon-sur-Vézère blends historic elegance with modern comfort. Renovated with care to preserve its Périgord style, the house features tasteful furnishings, a warm ambiance, and a splendid rose garden. The private swimming pool, bordered by conifers, offers a serene escape, while the large terrace and shaded lime tree invite relaxed afternoons and cozy evenings. Families will love the spacious lawn perfect for football, the table tennis setup, and the child-friendly play area. The friendly owners, living nearby, are discreet and happy to share local tips. With no vis-à-vis, guests enjoy privacy while the owners occasionally use the pool when guests are away. The forest is just 200 meters away, and the picturesque village of St. Léon-sur-Vézère-one of France's most beautiful-is a short walk for dining and daily essentials. Nearby attractions include the dramatic Marqueyssac Gardens, the imaginative Jardins de l'Imaginaire, and the serene Eyrignac Manor gardens. For dining, enjoy riverside charm at Carmen Restaurant Guinguette or gourmet delights at Le Petit Léon. Whether you're exploring prehistoric sites or relaxing in nature, this home offers a perfect Dordogne escape.

Just as described, peaceful, accessible, restful. Plenty to see and do in the area, especially for paleolithic interests. We had great fun listening to the birds in the nearby woods. Especially, our hosts were as helpful and friendly as it is possiblevto be.

This is a nice Gite in a wonderful location only a short walk from st Leon sur vezere . The property is well maintained and has everything you need however we found it lacked privacy as it is open to the road on one side and directly onto the owners property on the other.

Nice and clean villa and well equipped. Location is as described. Only issues are that the pool is shared and guest hours are 10am - 7pm which is not mentioned in the description. In addition, there is no aircon or fans for the bedrooms and it can get very hot. However, owners are very welcoming and on site if any help is required.

-->Prachtige, rustige locatie aan een heuvel op 10min loopafstand van het dorpje. Mooi zwembad en een fijn buitenterras waar je lekker kunt zitten. Huisje zelf was enigszins verouderd, maar van alle gemakken (vaatwasser, wasmachine, oven, magnetron, broodrooster, etc.) voorzien. De verouderde staat van het huisje merkten we vooral aan het krakende hout op de bovenverdieping, wat beneden heel goed te horen was. Ook zitten er in een van de kamers en in de keuken houtwormen, die je 's nachts duidelijk kan horen kraken in het hout. Toiletten spoelen ook niet lekker door, maar verder erg tevreden over het huisje en de locatie. --> Carole en Alait (gastheer en -vrouw) zijn ontzettend vriendelijk, meedenkend en gastvrij. Hebben allerlei tips wat betreft activiteiten en restaurants. We voelden ons af en toe wel een beetje in de gaten gehouden, omdat ze de hele dag in de buurt waren (ze wonen er zelf naast/tegenaan). --> Het dorpje, op 10min loopafstand, is erg gezellig. 's Ochtends kun je er brood halen en 's avonds kun je er heerlijk eten. Veel leuke activiteiten in de buurt; kanoën, klimpark, grotten, kastelen, dorpjes, wandelen, etc. --> Kortom: zeker een aanrader qua plek/omgeving/eigenaren/activiteiten, maar niet als je van een luxe ingericht huisje houdt:))

Belle maison bien située mais manque d’intimité

La maison est belle (ancienne bâtisse typique de la région) avec une superbe vue sur un beau paysage périgourdin. L’emplacement à Saint Léon est vraiment idéal pour rayonner et découvrir la région qui regorge d’activités en tous genres. Enfin, Alain et Carole sont des hôtes adorables et attentifs et nous ont réservé un très bon accueil. Seuls bémols : - L’intérieur de la maison est un peu sombre et nous avons été incommodés par une odeur persistante - la maison manque d’intimité : elle est attenante à la résidence principale des hôtes, et la piscine est partagée avec eux. Même si les hôtes savent se faire discrets, ça n’était pas ce que nous avions imaginé en réservant.

Schöne Unterkunft. Zentrale Lage im Perigord Noir.

Nette Begrüßung durch die freundlichen Vermieter Carole und Alain. Für die erste Verpflegung waren schon Kuchen, Eier, Brot, Butter, Wasser, Milch, Saft und Wein bereitgestellt. Wir haben uns in der Zeit unseres Aufenthaltes wohl gefühlt und vor allem die Terrasse und den Pool sehr genossen.

Net terug van onze tweede keer vakantie op deze fantastische plek en dat is geen toeval. Voor ons en onze 4 kinderen was het een totaal ervaring. Wij kunnen ons niet vinden in recente andere (en nogal zure) recensies, behalve de opmerking over het bed, dat mag wel vervangen worden. Het is een romantische boerderijtje en geen ultramoderne luxe villa. Het heeft alles wat je nodig hebt voor een relaxte vakantie op een werkelijk fantastische plek. Alle praktische zaken zijn aanwezig, het zwembad is heerlijk en de tuin en het uitzicht prachtig. Het dorp is pittoresk en bied vele mogelijkheden om lekker te eten. Tip: maak een helikoptervlucht door het vezere-dal. Carole en Alain regelen het graag voor je. Heel vriendelijke mensen die altijd voor je klaarstaan.

Hallo, es war dunkel in der Wohnung, trotz Licht an. Die Einrichtung war veraltet, die Küche hatte nur Platz für 1 Person, also klein. Am Esstisch standen zwei Holzbänke ohne Lehne, nicht bequem. In der Toilette oben wie auch unten keine luftreinigung oder fenster, nur ein geschlossener raum, spülen war schwierig, auch nach dreimaligem spülen war die "große nachricht" und das toilettenpapier nicht weg, dreckig, schmuddelig, knarrender boden im schlafzimmer oben , so dass die Tiefschläfer nachts oder frühmorgens regelmäßig aufgewacht sind von Belvilla.Mit diesen Zeiten gehen viele Urlaubsstunden verloren!
