Beautiful Perigourdine Gite in Tremolat, Dordogne, France Reviews

Magical


We returned from Dordogne a week ago and are missing it terribly. This is a particularly magical holiday rental owned by Geoff and Lindsay – the finest of hosts. It’s situated in Tremolat, which isn’t marred by the tourist trail but is perfect both in its ‘Frenchness’, its architectural beauty and location.

On our arrival Geoff and Lindsay talked us through the area and recommended all sorts of things to do and see. There’s a warmth to them that’s very rare and after the briefest of chats I felt like we were friends. And yet they were tactfully absent for the rest of the holiday except when we needed them. Brilliant! I should add that we left some washing on the line mid-holiday whereupon it rained (naturally). When we go back we found that their son had bought our washing in for us (thanks Joe!)

The apartment itself looks like something from Elle Deco – elegant, tasteful and yet cosy and charming. With a private garden, globe-lit swinging chair, deckchairs for lazy days, etc, etc. I can’t recommend it enough.

And then there’s Dordogne. It’s paradise. We canoed down the Dordogne river, ate in local restaurants and meandered around gorgeous medieval villages. It was the prefect antidote to life in London.

A thoroughly recommended holiday rental!
