About this property

Ideal holiday cottage in The Dordogne on edge of pretty hamlet. Private pool.

An exquisite cottage in a peaceful location, with its own secluded pool, near to Sarlat (25 minutes in the car), Domme (15 minutes) and Gourdon (20 minutes). The property has stunning views, which can be enjoyed from the large terraced area, which overlooks the pool and has a wooden table and chairs for dining alfresco. The cottage comprises two bedrooms - a double and a twin - and a bathroom on the first floor and an open plan lounge/dining room and fitted kitchen on the ground floor. It is surrounded by beautiful French working farmland and breathtaking rural houses and buildings. There is Wifi and a television. The lower garden is large enough to play badminton and football on and there is a trampoline with a net which can be used at the guest's own risk.
Florimont Gaumier has its own winery - 'Vin de Domme' - where there is a tower giving panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. It is close to many popular attractions including the Dordogne river for canoeing and beautiful medieval castles in Beynac and Castelnaud. Also, Lascaux, famous for the Palaeolithic cave paintings is nearby, as well as the caves of Cougnac which also have prehistoric paintings.

A wonderful countryside holiday home
We had a truly wonderful holiday. The house was just perfect for our family of four (two adults & two kids aged 11 & 9). The house was very clean and welcoming upon our arrival and it had all we needed - its own private pool was a real treat! We ate in the garden using the BBQ most nights. The village is super peaceful and yet only a few minutes drive away from a local bread shop for our morning croissants. Larger food stores only about 15 mins away in the car. Lots of activities very close by: we canoed in Cénac, hired bikes in Castlenaud-la-Chappelle, and a real favourite was going to a local public swimming lake on the edge of Gourdon, where the kids loved Aqua-Monkey and paddle boarding. Our favourite restaurant was La Terrasse about 10 mins drive up the hill from the house looking out over the local vineyard. There is also a fantastic viewing tower there looking down across the valley! At a time of so much uncertainty in the world, we couldn’t have chosen a better retreat for our holiday - would definitely recommend!

Peaceful, perfect, picturesque holiday cottage
Great location in small commune on the banks of river Ceou. Short drive or 40 minute walk to bakery, bar, restaurant and vineyard - we bought a case of lovely rose. Close to the breath-taking medieval villages of Domme, Sarlat, Castelnaud and Gourdon, with good restaurants and markets. Cenac close by for canoeing and the Ceou valley is great for bike riding. The house is located on a minor road and is very peaceful. It is well equipped and I was relieved to find a huge SMEG fridge/ freezer and kids relieved to find great wifi, English TV and a good selection of DVDs. Helpful house managers close by. Our teenagers loved lounging in the south facing pool and then having a BBQ early evening - in fact on some days this was all we did as weather so hot! We were lucky enough to be there for the summer festival in the village square which finished at midnight with amazing fireworks. I could have stayed another week .

A piece of heaven on earth.
My husband and I booked this property and took our two grandsons (aged 11 and 9 years). We all had a really lovely time. The cottage is very well equipped and was spotlessly clean. Being on the edge of a village it was extremely quiet and very peaceful. Amenities are a short drive away with Gourdon about 15 minute drive where there are excellent restaurants and supermarkets for supplies. Weather was beautiful so days were spent relaxing in the garden or in the pool, which was a definite hit with the boys. There are lovely walks around the village with cycle tracks for the more energetic. Booking was made extremely easy with the owner whom I found helpful and informative. All in all, this was a wonderful cottage and we had a wonderful holiday.. Would definitely recommend it to anybody. Sandie (Portsmouth UK)

Super !! Tres agréable, calme, la piscine un peu froide mais nous soulager de la chaleur et propre. L'intérieur dans son jus mais on y passé pas beaucoup de temps. Prévoir éventuellement un micro-ondes et une lumière extérieure. A part ça rien a dire, vous êtes chez vous aucun vis à vis, nous avons adoré, je recommandes ce logement très très sympathique. Contact avec la propriétaire ainsi qu'avec la personne qui réceptionne tres agréable. 👍

Bon séjour en Dordogne
Petite maison de vacances sympathique qui correspond bien à la description de l'annonce. On y trouve tout l'équipement nécessaire (lave-vaisselle, machine à laver, wifi ... ) Elle se situe dans un petit hameau très calme , à la campagne. Nous avons bien profité de la piscine aussi. Et la région est magnifique, beaucoup de choses à visiter. Je recommande cette location.

About the host

Hosted by Juliet Morrison

Host profile image
Jules and Murdo Morrison. This is our holiday home and we absolutely love it here. We wish we could come more often but with work and school commitments, we are limited in time, so we thought we would like others to benefit from our beautiful house which is in such peaceful and inspiring surroundings.

Why they chose this property

As soon as we crossed the bridge over the river which meanders around the village we knew this was a special place. It is achingly beautiful, from the old French working farms which keep the charm of days gone by alive to the stunning views across the valley. We come here every year with our two children and immediately feel relaxed by the laid back pace of life, the welcoming villagers and quiet location.
The pretty stone cottage is a renovated cow barn. It is open plan downstairs with tasteful furniture. It is small but a real gem, with breath taking views across the valley.
The village is on a popular cycle route and because of its beauty it is a regular stopping point for passersby to stop and have their picnics on the tables and benches near to the river.
A picture framer and a bookbinder, with an adjoining cafe, have set up business in the village, adding interest. There is also a working church next door but one to our cottage.
There's a vineyard a 40 minute walk away, with a viewing tower and a great bar to have some cocktails. There are also the most amazing walks on the cottage's doorstep and with the River Dordogne just 20 minutes drive away, it is great fun to take out a canoe.
For us it is the tranquility of the cottage that we love so much. As soon as we arrive we take a deep sigh, relax and look forward to waking in the morning to the wonderful sound of birdsong.

What makes this property unique

The property has a very private pool with a light for night swimming.
Sitting on the terrace you can look across the stunning valley, taking in the sound of the cows in the nearby field, tractors passing by and the odd gecko rustling in the undergrowth.
