Beautiful Place
Beautiful place - even nicer than the photos! The Cottage had everything you would need for a great holiday and was really comfortable as well as charming. Was hard to tear ourselves away from the terrace with its perfect pastoral view and great BBQ (& Hot Tub!) but lots to do around also, including market in Sarlat on Weds and the "Josephine Baker" Castle; lots of lovely walks in woodlands and conoeing nearby. We were with teenagers and they really enjoyed.

Absolutely wonderful accommodations in charming village of Carlucet
We enjoyed every minute of our stay at Les Charmes de Carlucet. Perfect little village of Salignac nearby and super comfortable accommodations. Kerry and Tomas took such good care of us with five star service all the way, from a weekly cleaning to restaurant reservations, to day trip suggestions to kitchen needs, you name it!! Like the 'yes' hotel. We will definitely visit again. Five star service, five star accommodations! Gorgeous area of France!

A most charming holiday location
The charms of Les Charmes de Carlucet are many and varied and all contribute to a most wonderful holiday. We rented both the Beau Reve villa and the Cottage for a family of 12 spanning three generations from 5 years to 85 years and everyone had a great time. The houses are very comfortable, beautifully furnished and fully equipped with a huge attention to detail that just makes life so easy. You can cook dinner for 12 or pack picnics (the level of thoughtfulness includes cool boxes), have delicious BBQs on a terrace overlooking a picture perfect hamlet , sip cool drinks (ice machine provided) while lounging around the pool, or play badminton or football in the large park areas to work up an appetite (or attempt to tire out children). While the location itself is a most tranquil spot, there is great Irish gastro pub – the Black Duck - a 5 minute walk away (we can testify that the Guinness is poured perfectly), the village of Salignac is a 5 minute drive and has a supermarket, bakery, butchers and a pizzeria and the beautiful town of Sarlat is 12 kms away. Excursion options include umpteen chateaux, picturesque towns, UNESCO pilgrimage sites, kayaking, cycling, adventure parks, gardens and woodland walks – i.e. something for everyone. Finally, the owners, Kerry and Thomas provide a considerable amount of the charm, very warm, welcoming and generous – always on hand for a chat, tailored advice and recommendations but never intrusive. They’ve created a beautiful place with a lovely ambiance and we certainly hope to be back.

You have to go to realise how beautiful these hosts have made this destination
The hosts were so helpful and on hand for all our needs. Nothing was too much trouble and always with a lovely smile. So refreshing. Out accommodation was totally 5 star, the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could ever need, the utility room was easy to negotiate and the accommodation was delightfully decorated and every area was tastefully accommodated. The beds, pillows and linen was of the best quality. I cannot fault any area of our stay and look forward to visiting year after year! A truly luxurious experience. Not one hesitation on returning

Wonderful
We have just returned from a 3 week stay at Beaux Reves villa and it was everything we could have hoped for and more. The Villa is beautiful inside and out and the pool was a wonderful bonus, especially in the hot weather. Kerry and Tomas were so helpful with everything and full of useful local knowledge. They were on hand to answer any questions we had whilst simultaneously leaving us to enjoy the Villa at our leisure. The local area is an absolute joy to explore and there is so much to see and do. We definitely hope to return!
