Combe-Claire, Magnificent House with Private Pool in the Heart of Dordogne, Near Sarlat Reviews

A Fabulous Two Weeks By Stephen on 22-Jul-2023
Had a fabulous two week stay at Combe-Claire in June/July 23. The pictures (which sold us on coming to Combe-Claire) were only a small insight into how lovely the house is and was absolutely perfect for the requirements of our party - of ages ranging from 20 to 81. Kitchen was well stocked with every utensil or pan you could wish for! The beds were also the most comfortable we''ve ever slept in for a holiday let and the air conditioning was a lovely addition. Managed to keep up to date with news from home on the English TV channels and never had any issues with WiFi during our stay. The pool loungers and towels made us feel like we were staying at our own private resort. We used the pool everyday (apart from on the day we left) and it was a welcome addition with the hot weather. We also took the opportunity for numerous table tennis tournaments and, whilst we didn''t use them, there were also bikes provided in the games room. The house, whilst quiet and remote, was only fifteen minutes away in any direction to numerous towns or points of interest (Sarlat, Les Eyzies) and Tamnies is a fabulous area to stay in. Great little market at Saint Geniès on a Sunday where there is also a lovely little bakery which did the most amazing bread. Although we were there for two weeks, we really didn''t venture too far as the house met all of our needs. All throughout from booking, to returning home, Farah was very quick to answer any questions or deal with any concerns. The housekeeper Rosemary was fabulous too. Whilst staying at Combe-Claire, we took the opportunity to arrange for local chef, Julie Harris, (recommended by Farah) to come and cook for us one evenig which was outstanding and worth every penny (or should I say euro?!) We had a lovely time, which went far too quickly and we would really love to return to Combe-Claire again in the future. Five stars Guest rating:
