Ideal location in the Dordogne.
We were a family party of 8. We all slept comfortably with a bedroom to spare. The house was clean and tidy and well equiped. Everything was in good working order and we had the luxury of talking to the owners, who live close by, if we had any queries. We spent most of our time by the high standard swimming pool where all facilties were to hand. Fridge, barbecue, toilet, sink, table tennis , table & chairs, sunbeds, inflatables etc. Clearly the owners had thought of everything.
Perfection in the Perigord!
Beautiful, spacious house. Perfect setting. Pool and outdoor kitchen will blow your mind!
A perfect holiday location
We had a lovely family holiday at La Perode. The property was exactly as described on the website. It was clean, spacious and contained everything we could possibly need. The pool area particularly was wonderful and we had hoped to spend most of our time there, but unfortunately the weather was disappointing and we managed only a couple of visits. However on other days we visited the lovely Chateau et Jardins de Losse, a great aquarium at Le Bugue and the Rouffignac Caves, all thoroughly recommended. We loved wandering around the extensive grounds spotting the many different birds and butterflies. In the evenings we enjoyed sitting out with a glass of wine listening to the cicadas and other night sounds. Alec and Annie were the perfect hosts - always there to help but never intrusive. They are very kind and friendly. We would definitely recommend this property to friends and relatives and we hope return one day.
Great time
Accurate description. Clean. Owners on-hand and helpful but not intrusive. They were very receptive to feedback on kitchen equipment which at times was a little sparse for 9 - I have no doubt this will be attended to. The pool area set up is great. Really peaceful. Relaxing. Property renovated well. It would be a bit of a squeeze to have lots of people in the living room but plenty of space elsewhere. Nice to have hooks on the back of doors and it was all well lit. Went into Rouffignac a few times, including a never to be forgotten Wednesday evening market - we now have a new party game (you'll have to ask A & A). Bike hire available at reasonable cost from nearby campsite if you haven't brought your own. Good map for cycling on site. My son (12) said "it was amazing, and amazing fun for children and adults.
Fabulous!!
We spent a fabulous 2 weeks at La Perode this summer. The house had been newly renovated and was clean and fresh and Alex's attention to detail meant it was finished to a very high standard. There was plenty of space for our party of 9 with a very nice kitchen and lovely bedrooms. Set in huge grounds, we weren't overlooked and didn't need to worry about noise. The pool was a good size and the 'disco' pool lights were a big hit at night with the kids. There was plenty of comfortable pool furniture to relax in. But what made our holiday was the Abri. We lived outside for the 2 weeks and the outside kitchen with BBQ, fridge, washing up area and full dining table was just perfect. That alone would bring us back year after year. There was plenty to do in the area although the weather meant we've left plenty for future trips. With a good supermarket and Sunday market and boulangerie for bread in the morning all within a 5 minute drive, shopping was easy. Alex and Annie were perfect hosts, on hand to offer help and advice but happy to stay back and let us enjoy their lovely property. Thank you for a wonderful holiday. A bientot. Alison
