La Perode - Beautiful Holiday Farmhouse with Private heated Pool, Perigord Noir, Dordogne Reviews

Excellent House that ticks all the boxes

We were lucky enough to spend the whole month of September at this property. The property was full of character but with excellent modern facilities. The three main bedrooms were very large with good showers, nice furniture, balconies and great views. There is also a good sized TV with UK channels - not that we watched it very much. The star of the show was the outdoor area which has everything you need - fridge, weber BBQ, changing room, large shower, table tennis table, kettle for making a cuppa - heaps of plastic crockery and we had lots of memorable lunches and evening BBQ's out here. The pool is an excellent size and well-maintained by Alec. It is also close to the house. Rouffignac had everything you need - excellent Boulangerie called Blondys - we recommend everything from the bread and cakes to their homemade quiche - friendly owners. The butchers was also excellent and the Carrefour local was large (you could do a weekly shop here - good wine section too) - also 24 hour petrol. The village has a few good cafes plus a greengrocers and a "Proxi" supermarket and a post office. There is an excellent market on Sunday mainly selling fruit, veg, cheese, sausage, duck (you are bombarded by duck products in this area of the dordogne), nougat, wine from local chateaux, hats, baskets.
