Ce logement est à leur image,sympathique, accueillant, bienveillant ... Michel est un véritable amoureux de sa région et n hésitera pas à vous conseiller les beaux coins à ne pas rater si vous le souhaitez ! Joëlle est aux petits soins pour ses hôtes et a toujours un petit mot gentil ! Les filles l ont adorée !!! La piscine couverte et chauffée est un véritable plus ! Celle ci nous a permis de nous détendre après nos journées de visite et ce,sans nous soucier de la météo !! Nous avons réellement apprécié passer 15 jours de vacances dans ce magnifique endroit et espérons recevoir Joëlle et Michel à notre tour dans notre chez nous 😉 ##### Claire Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stéphane M. 27 Jul 2018 #### Nous avons passé une agréable semaine. Gite très agréable, original et fonctionnel. Il ne manque vraiment rien, autant au niveau des chambres, cuisine etc. La piscine est un plus, d’autant que nous étions les seuls à avoir accès. Accueil des propriétaires très sympa. Joëlle et Michel sont des personnes à connaître. Michel est de très bon conseil pour les lieux à visiter. Nous reviendrons! ##### Stéphane M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stéphane R. 16 May 2018 #### Ne pas hésiter ! Gîte plein de charme (mélange de musée et de belle demeure) dans lequel on se sent tout de suite bien. Très bon accueil des propriétaires Joëlle et Michel, nous avons apprécié leurs bons conseils et leur discrétion. La piscine est très agréable et de belle taille. Merci pour cette belle semaine ! ##### Stéphane R.

Accueil très cordial de la part des propriétaires Joëlle et Michel qui nous ont donné au passage des informations intéressantes pour découvrir la région. le gite est très confortable, bien équipé et fonctionnel, de plus il est beau et original,, nous avons eu le plaisir de vivre dans une maison d'artistes pendant notre semaine. Le top c'est la piscine chauffée à l'eau douce qui nous a permis de nous relaxer après nos balades. Globalement nous avons passés une belle semaine ensoleillée et nous recommandons le gîte à des personnes cherchant le dépaysement, le calme et le beau. Au plaisir de revoir Jöelle et Michel.. ##### Patricia B.

Nous avons passés deux semaines géniales dans le gite La Bohème. C'est un endroit très sympa, la déco est incroyable! A elle seule elle vaut une visite. Nous y avions été accueilli très chaleureusement par Joëlle et Michel qui nous ont également donné de bons conseils pour visiter la région. Nous avons été enchanté par le marais poitevin, nous avons pu y faire de super randonnées à vélo. Nous avons profité des petits marchés des environs et déguster une grande variété de fromage de chèvres. Nous sommes même allé visiter le Futuroscope et passer une journée à La Rochelle pour profiter de la mer ! Le gite est très grand! Très confortable et bien équipé il nous a permis de nous ressourcer et de nous reposer après nos escapades touristiques. La piscine couverte est très pratique et à l’abri dans son écrin de bois nous pouvions nous baigner au chaud en avril. Nous gardons un excellent souvenir de ce séjour avec les enfants et nous reviendrons! ##### cessy l.

Nous, nous sommes tous sentis à la maison dès le portail franchi et les premières paroles échangées avec Joëlle et Michel. La région est belle, reposante et mérite le détour. La piscine, un régal par tous les temps vu qu'elle est couverte et chauffé à 27°. J'ai envie de dire à bientôt ##### Odile D. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Les Hortensias Du Lac - Fontenille Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soorts-Hossegor-Hotels-Les-Hortensias-Du-Lac.h1165984.Hotel-Information) > > [Pretty gite with pool, located 5 min from Sarlat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarlat-La-Caneda-Hotels-Pretty-Gite-With-Pool.h34107587.Hotel-Information) > > [The Originals City, Hotel de Bordeaux, Bergerac center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bergerac-Hotels-The-Originals-City.h119378.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel AKENA Biarritz - Grande plage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Biarritz-Hotels-Escale-Oceania-Biarritz.h903591.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles Biarritz Plage (Ouverture mai 2024)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Biarritz-Hotels-Le-Biarritz.h1382298.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel du Palais Biarritz, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Biarritz-Hotels-Hotel-Du-Palais-Biarritz.h438292.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Chateau with private pool near Bordeaux](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bordeaux-Hotels-Luxury-Chateau-With-Private-Pool-Near-Bordeaux.h34588821.Hotel-Information) > > [Residhotel Galerie Tatry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bordeaux-Hotels-Residhotel-Galerie-Tatry.h2202530.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel de Normandie](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bordeaux-Hotels-Hotel-De-Normandie.h27527371.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Foch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bordeaux-Hotels-VILLAS-FOCH.h46350745.Hotel-Information) > > [2 The Courtyard 4 Star Vineyard Gite](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puisseguin-Hotels-AS-Seen-ON-Channel-4-A-NEW-Life-IN-THE-SUN.h35165606.Hotel-Information) > > [Brit Hotel Europ Bergerac](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bergerac-Hotels-EuropHotel.h1223231.Hotel-Information) > > [Stunning Dordogne riverside villa with heated salt pool, 10min walk to Tremolat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cales-Hotels-Beautiful-Riverside-Villa-With-Heated-Saltwater-Pool.h34742453.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cottage 4 Star Vineyard Gite](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puisseguin-Hotels-AS-Featured-ON-Channel-4-A-NEW-Life-IN-THE-SUN.h34712224.Hotel-Information) > > [Les Cottages du Lac](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Parentis-En-Born-Hotels-Les-Cottages-Du-Lac.h5928409.Hotel-Information) > > [Domaine Maison DoDo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lamonzie-Saint-Martin-Hotels-Domaine-Maison-DoDo.h15067904.Hotel-Information) > > [Wonderful 4 bedroom, 4 bath Perigordine House, heated pool, 5 acres, Sarlat 6km](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Saint-Andre-DAllas-Hotels-Wonderful-4-Bedroom.h24102944.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel de France Bergerac](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bergerac-Hotels-Hotel-De-France-Bergerac.h14896647.Hotel-Information) > > [Quality Hotel Bordeaux Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bordeaux-Hotels-Quality-Hotel-Bordeaux-Centre.h25249.Hotel-Information) > > [Stunning Gite, with private swimming pool and 2.75 acre fishing lake](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Abjat-Sur-Bandiat-Hotels-Stunning-Gite.h67593143.Hotel-Information) > > [4 The Courtyard 4 Star Vineyard Gite](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puisseguin-Hotels-AS-Seen-ON-Channel-4-A-NEW-Life-IN-THE-SUN.h35205556.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel et Résidence La Réserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Saint-Jean-De-Luz-Hotels-Hotel-Et-Residence-La-Reserve.h4580948.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Bordeaux Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bordeaux-Hotels-Novotel-Bordeaux-Centre.h26308.Hotel-Information) > > [Domaine d'Essendiéras](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Saint-Medard-DExcideuil-Hotels-Domaine-DEssendieras.h16625296.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa with heated private pool **** and closed parking - La Flotte - Ile de Ré](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Flotte-Hotels-Villa-With-Heated-Private-Pool-And-Closed-Parking-La-Flotte-Ile-De-Re.h33480460.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Resort & Spa Biarritz Anglet](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anglet-Hotels-Novotel-Resort-Spa-Biarritz-Anglet.h5729.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Bordeaux Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bordeaux-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Bordeaux-Centre.h25178164.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday home at the foot of the vines](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castillon-La-Bataille-Hotels-Holiday-Home-At-The-Foot-Of-The-Vines.h18954936.Hotel-Information) > > [Arcanse by Inwood Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arcachon-Hotels-Arcanse-By-Inwood-Hotels.h1277595.Hotel-Information)
