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.

10th August - 17th August 2024

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.

June under the linden tree

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.

Perfect holiday

Spotlessly clean, a very warm welcome, perfect position within walking distance of the village and a short drive of many historic sites of great interest. We should have booked for longer!

great stay in Dordogne

Why stay in a hotel when you can rent a house for about the same price? Carole and Alain's home has it all, very close to sites and sights you come to Dordogne to see. We had a great time - thank you

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.

Super - Innen, Außen, Blick

Großzügiges, schönes Steinhaus mit allem was man braucht: gut ausgestattete Küche, hervorragende Betten, 2 Bäder...Für uns wichtig: 4 tolle Außenbereiche mit schönem, weitem Ausblick: große Terrasse mit Esstisch und Loungemöbeln, wunderschöne, schattenspendende Linde, und natürlich der saubere, einladende Pool. Die Vermieter wohnen nebenan und sind sehr diskret, nett und großzügig, der Kühlschrank war wohlgefüllt und Begrüßung und Kommunikation ließen keine Wünsche offen...danke, Carole und Alain, wir kommen gerne wieder! Auch noch praktisch: das Haus liegt fußläufig zum Ort St. Léon

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. Das Haus liegt sehr zentral für Ausflüge, Wanderungen und Besichtigungen im Perigord Noir.
