'Our fortnight has been too short. The house facilities have been great, the photos don't do it justice. Apart from the natural beauty, the Dordogne offers visitors endless hours of attractions to suit all the family. We've had a great holiday and are very sad to leave. We hope to return'.

'A wonderful week we all agree that the photos don't do the place justice. We had typically British weather for the first couple of days but it soon picked up. Canoeing was the highlight and we thought that the Lac Rosier made a nice change from the swimming pool. The markets are great. All in all a cracking holiday'.
Walker family//
'A wonderful couple of weeks in excellent weather and the lovely surroundings of your house. The pool was a great bonus and much used by all. Thank you for your hospitality and assistance'.
