Fantastic Property for a large Group
Lovely property, very well appointed and comfortable. Really well equipped for a large family/group holiday with the games room/pool/tennis courts. We had a fantastic week and would not hesitate to go back. Highly recommended

Fantastic Holiday at Maison Montignac
We had a wonderful time at Maison Montignac, it was perfect for our family group with ages from three to seventy nine. The house was clean and very well equipped and we appreciated the welcome pack on arrival, although the large supermarket was only two minutes away by car. There was plenty of room in the house and garden and it was easy to find somewhere for a bit of peace and quiet if you wanted to. The pool was very popular and a lovely temperature. It was fenced and alarmed, really marvellous for us as we had two small children in the party who could play in the garden without us adults worrying all the time. It was a nice touch that the pool towels were supplied and there were even lilos and beach balls there. The tennis court was also well used - a great addition for an energetic group! We took the easy option some evenings and used the services of two different catering companies - 'Sylvie and Pascal' and 'After Eight Catering' - what a treat - both produced delicious meals. We walked into Monsegur on Wednesday for the night market where there was a brilliant atmosphere and we all had a very enjoyable evening. The housekeeper Maureen responded immediately when we had a query about the pool - she resolved the problem straight away. We would certainly recommend this holiday to friends and will hopefully return in a year or two ourselves. M & T

Magnificent
My party of 14 arrived at Maison Montignac on July 23rd 2016 and we were not disappointed. Every aspect of the property exceeded our expectations and if anything the online photos didn't really do the property justice. With the amount of internal and external room available it never felt crowded, the tennis court was a useful recreational resource in the mornings and the pool was lovely. The games room provided much evening entertainment! Being able to enjoy the beautiful weather by eating outdoors every evening was a real bonus. The property was clean, well maintained, beautifully furnished and we received first class service from Maureen and Andy. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this property to anyone wishing to spend time in a beautiful part of France.

Monsegur magic
We had a wonderful stay at la Maison Montignac. The accommodation was perfect and the hosts were more than lovely and helpful. We especially loved the fabulous swimming pool, tennis court and games room. Would definitely stay again as we really didn't want to leave.

Five star accommodation perfect for large families
The property is perfect for large family groups and families with children. Well furnished and everything you need to cater for large groups.The pool is amazing with plenty of loungers and the tennis courts and games room provide fun for adults and children alike. We hired bikes and enjoyed some lovely cycles to nearby villages. The local supermarket and bakery in the village provide everything you need. We would highly recommend this property and wouldn't hesitate to go again.
