We had an amazing stay in this beautiful property, the owner was exceptionally helpful throughout and we had a wonderful family holiday. Would highly recommend this property.
A fantastic house for our 2 week holiday. The house was very clean with all that you would need for a family holiday. The pool was amazing with all towels and bed linen provided. Many thanks.
We had a lovely stay at the property. The owners have thought of everything and were extremely welcoming and helpful. The outdoor area is stunning. It’s unusual to find such a great outdoor area/facilities with a two bedroom property in a great location and this is why we choose it. Lots of activities in the area
Beautiful house, very comfortable and central to so many wonderful attractions Sarlat/ le roque gageac/ beynac/ domme/ Lascaux etc the outside area including the pool, BBQ, seating areas, boules court and table tennis really made our stay wonderful.
The house is well proportioned, bright, airy and light. The pool is amazing, super clean and a very good size. The pool is set in an amazing garden.
So the view from the balcony above is amazing, with the further view over the hills and forests below the property. Throughly enjoyed our stay and both at the house and Sarlat and the surrounding area.
We had a lovely stay at this wonderful home. We did a lot of research to get someone that had the feel of the area with character and charm and this home definitely nailed that. Very homely, traditional decor and furniture but all the necessities inside and outside the house you would need. Amazing views from the house/balcony was a real highlight, the best from all we looked at. House was clean, all practical things thought of with towels, linen, kitchen equipment.Nicole very kindly kept the pool open for us even though it was the last week of October and with sun every day with 23/24C it was much used! One thing to note - the location on VRBO map has the house in central Sarlat but it’s not, the listing rightly says it’s 3.5k outside Sarlat, so not sure why the map location is different. Also we wanted to be south of Sarlat near the Greenway cycle route and so we asked which side of Sarlat it was and were told by Louis, the booking assistant, that it was north of Sarlat and so we don’t book for the first few weeks of exploring but upon deciding to book anyway, discovered that it’s actually dead west of Sarlat which was better for us in the end. Otherwise all the communications were great and Nicole the host was amazing and helpful with lots of things and wanting to make our stay comfortable. We hope to visit again for sure!
Beautiful, quite, fantastic views, ease of shopping only 8 mins away. Close enough to Sarlat but far enough away to remain in a quite area.Incredibly well stocked kitchen,
Tranquil is how the owner described her property, very fitting. Beautiful retreat after touring the many places of interest nearby. So clean, comfortable and thoughtfully outfitted.
A perfect setting in an amazing house with the best views ever. Nicole and Patrick were always helpful but never intrusive.The weather was heatwave and we were very grateful for the best air conditioning we have ever experienced.We highly recommend this house and it's owners.

Spacious , tastefully decorated typically french country style, super clean, great view
Spacious home with a great view, very accommodating and gracious hostess, less than 10 minutes drive to historical Sarlat
A beautiful home and a fantastic location. Stupendous patio. You will want to spend all your day sitting on the terrace looking over the gorgeous backyard, and pool.

A true restorative vacation
A lovely gracious home with a beautiful view about 2 miles from city. Awaken to bird songs, enjoy the flower gardens, home is equipped with everything you might need plus many extras. The owner is warm and helpful with a generosity of spirit. Easy access to Europcar, market and train station.
Very well equipped inside and out.
Very quiet location.
Needs better internal Wi-Fi - signal drops in bedroom.
Another AC unit would be better.
Pool area is well done and in excellent order.
Delightful owner.

Exceptional accommodation, excellent facilities.
We have just completed a 2 week stay at this quiet, relaxing property. The house was extremely comfortable, all modern appliances, excellent wifi, spacious, everything supplied and a very welcoming owner. It's 3km out of town so you must have a car. We can't believe how great it was. Fantastic. 11 out of 10!

Sarlat-la-Caneda Home way from Home
Nicole, the owner, was lovely and very accommodating. Her property is well cared for she had it equipped with everything we could possibly need to be comfortable. The house and the yard are in perfect condition. It is very centrally located and the town of Sarlat is just a few minutes drive away and very charming! We would highly recommend this property and would love to come back! Thank you Nicole!
From the moment my wife and I arrived we were treated by Catherine with great generosity as she welcomed us to her beautiful built home.
The apartment is spacious, spotless and well equipped. The beds are extremely comfortable for a good night's sleep and Catherine supplies you with an abundance of towels.
The pool is a joy and the surrounding area with a barbecue is a delight.
We have taken many photographs to bring back with us to Ireland to recommend to our family and friends.
Many thanks for such an enjoyable ten day stay.
Nicole’s home is lovely. The outside photos all do justice, but the interior is far more elegant and spacious than expected. We don’t speak French and Nicole doesn’t speak English but we were able to email and translate the important stuff so all good. Nicole stays in the apartment below but completely private for guest. We would come back. Dan & Susan
We spent two wonderful weeks this June in this property with Catherine who was very welcoming but left you in peace unless needed. Although we mainly ate on the balcony there are loads of places to eat around the garden. The kitchen had every bit of equipment imaginable with a boulangerie about one mile away and Carrefour just 8 Kms away. The property is quite high up with lovely distant views. If you have children, they’ll love it, pool, enclosed trampoline, netball stand, table tennis table,, . whilst we were there there were cuckoos which were lovely to hear. We enjoyed every moment and loved returning after busy days out!
The house is great, looked after really well and extremely clean. There was everything you need in the kitchen. The lady even left us some juice, wine, and water to welcome us. There are plenty of towels and bedding. There is air conditioning so it kept the house cool. The owner lives downstairs but she’s extremely polite and minds her own business. I wish we spoke more French to be able to converse better with her.
One thing I would note is that there were quite a lot of mosquitos. People should remember that the villa is surrounded by greenery but that comes with all sorts of ecosystems. We got some mosquito spray and it was fine.
Overall, gorgeous stay!

An absolute gem!
We stayed here for the last two weeks of September & it's the best property we've rented in France. Beautifully furnished, immaculately clean, very comfortable. Excellently positioned a few minutes outside of Sarlat, which is one of the loveliest towns in the Dordogne, in its own grounds off a quiet lane. Several supermarkets are within easy driving distance. The Leclerc is especially worth a mention. Nicole, the owner, is very helpful & discreet. We don't speak much French & she doesn't speak English but we were able to make ourselves understood well enough. The views from the fabulous veranda were an added delight. The exterior is as well equipped as the interior. Decent sized swimming pool, lots of chairs & loungers, table tennis, bbq, privacy! We loved it. It's an absolute gem!
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette maison avec sa cuisine très bien équipée. L'emplacement est très tranquille et le panaroma est magnifique. Nous avons profité des espaces dehors pour nos repas, pour jouer aux boules et pour nous relaxer. Nicole, notre hôtesse est très sympa. Alors in super séjour
Merci beaucoup de nous avoir ouvert les portes de votre maison. Malgré le temps peu clément nous avons pu nous baigner.Nous vous souhaitons une bonne continuation!
