The 10 minute drive to Riberac descends through fields of sunflowers and maize, groves of walnut trees and orchards to the valley of the Dronne. Riberac has hypermarkets, a wide range of shops and an excellent Friday market for fresh food (including fantastic fresh fish) and local produce. Restaurants ranging from the cheap and cheerful to the sophisticated lie within 5 to 15 minutes drive as does horse riding, canoeing, tennis and golf. There are some pretty walks and bike rides along local lanes and tracks straight from the house. Local sightseeing includes the delightful village of Aubterre, the castle of Bourdeilles and the abbey at Brantome while a little further away are the vineyards of St Emilion and Pomerol and the towns of Bergerac and Perigueux. Bordeaux is well worth a day trip as is Futuroscope (French theme park) and Vallee des Singes (close encounters with monkeys large and small).

Review Submitted: October 2, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
We would recommend this property highly. It is extremely comfortable, with every detail considered. The area has so much to offer with fabulous canoeing, beaches by the rivers, beautiful towns to discover, and of course wine tasting towards Bordeaux (GREAT!). As the Olympics were on, we were overjoyed to use the Sky Box each day as more Gold medals poured in. We used the barbecue, and the great local Boulangerie. We also ate in the fantastic Bar Arsenic (Menu du Jour 12 euroes only - unbelievably good! Even the children adored it). HIGHLY RECOMMENDED beautiful, comfortable, peaceful yet well situated house.

Fantastic Holiday at Le Gelibert

Rüchan Istanbul - TURKEY
Review Submitted: September 20, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
We were three couples stayed at this beautiful house, beautiful garden full of silence. The most comfortable house we've had so far among the four rentals for the last five years. We know from our experiences it is quite hard to find all bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. This is one of the most important issues when searching for rentals for more than one or two couples. We were so much satisfied with the brand new and sufficint household facilities as we cooked a lot for two weeks. Our beakfast times, our dinners overlooking the lawn were fantastic. We got used to the house as if our own residence from the first day of stay. Even every minor needs have thought of by the owners including the booklet introducing the surroundings. The English couple who took care of the house were very friendly. We had so much fun inside the house as well as the outside. We believe our choice of visitng Southwest France is perfect as we clocked up approximately 4500 km around the gorgeous regions and specially coming back to Le Gelibert after a long drive was remarkable. We are so lucky of being in Le Gelibert and in this beautiful, very comfortable & special house.

Review Submitted: March 13, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2007
We had a fantastic time there last year and thoroughly recommend it, it was even lovelier than we expected. The house is beautiful, peaceful setting, well equipped to a very high spec, owners have thought of everything. It feels like a home not just a holiday house. Plenty of space inside and out, garden ideal for football, rounders, badminton (all the kit was there) and cricket. Gorgeous pool. Local English couple on hand were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The house is in a great area for canoeing, caves, pretty villages, markets etc. Plenty of guide books and leaflets in "library" in the house plus a selection of novels. Riberac has good supermarkets plus local food shops and street market.
