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

Combe-Claire is a home from home set in beautiful countryside. We have been staying in French villas and holiday homes, from the Loire to Cote d’Azur, for the last 10 years and this was without doubt the best we have experienced. We had a fantastic family holiday with 4 adults and 5 children all comfortably accommodated. The WiFi worked perfectly which is a great improvement on most places we have visited and is becoming an essential as the children get older.

The layout reflected the amount of thought which has gone into making this the perfect place for a relaxing holiday. We live in a bespoke built house, however we learnt numerous new tricks should we ever build another.

Food is an important part of being in France so we enjoyed using both the high quality barbeque and the kitchen which had every thing we would be using at home; we never had to work around .

Pool was well tended and the children loved the fountain, with a 3 year old in the party we thought the solid electric cover was a great improvement over alarms or fences.

We liked the relative isolation, however there were a couple of towns within 15/20 minutes drive and the restaurant in the next village was excellent. In a week we visited about a third of the places we had noted for exploration. The region has plenty to occupy all ages from the Grotto to High Wires and more restaurants than you could ever visit whilst there was always the option of staying at ‘home’ to relax in luxury.

The only issue we had the whole time was due to the weather, the first evening the sun was still very hot and we noticed a lack of sun canopies by the outside table compared to the number of bases. We contacted Farah by email, she responded immediately, and the next morning she turned up with two large boxes containing very high quality, and large, canopies.

We would thoroughly recommend Combe-Claire for a large family but it would be the perfect getaway as a couple.
