Further details for this holiday villa rental in Thenac, France

General Information: The towns of the Dordorgne offer many events throughout the year and most have a weekly market. There are many excellent restaurants in the area catering for all tastes and budgets. Touring is a pleasure with such splendid scenery and quiet roads. Walks are available direct from the house with maps displayed by the village church. Fishing is also available in the region. There are several golf courses in the area (see below).

Wines: The villa is located in the main wine growing area for the Bergerac wines. There is a 'Route de Vins' through the region where visits can be made to the local vineyards to taste the local produce.

The Dordogne is full of wonderful towns and villages to visit, numerous chateaux to see, pre-historic caves to explore, and of course the river itself.

Other activities within thirty minutes drive include ten pin bowling, go-karting, mountain biking, evening markets, organised walks, and horse-riding.

Fongrive Haut

Julia & family London
Review Submitted: August 25, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We spent a quiet couple of weeks at Fongrive. The location is lovely with beautiful scenery and only the occasional passing car. The house was exceptionally well equiped with great attention to detail. There were plenty of games and activities to occupy our children aged 14 and 12. The table football was a great hit! The weather was extremely kind to us resulting in the swimming pool being used everyday. We visited a few of the recommended towns and markets. and would love to return to Fongrive to explore further.

Fongrive Haut - Peace and relaxation

Madhar Hastings,East Sussex
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We spent one glorious week at Fongrive Haut (8th - 15th Aug 2009) and wished we had stayed longer.
The accomodation was excellent - the pictures are great but do not fully do the house justice.There is so much room here internally and externally that even with 6 of us there you sometimes had no idea where the others were!!!!!
Everything and more is catered for and to a high standard. The children especially enjoyed the table tennis,badmington,board games etc etc.
The pool is a great size and great fun too.
The property was so clean and tidy and a lovely welcome pack was provided for when we arrived.
I do not think you could ask for anything else at this property.
we will definately return to this most beautiful part of the world.

JULY HOLIDAY

JOHNNY & ANNETTE MAYO, IRELAND
Review Submitted: July 30, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We stayed in this lovely well equipped house in it's beautiful setting in early July with our three small children.We had a great holiday thanks in the main to all the facilities and the great information pack that was provided enabling us to know what were the good markets, restaurants, places of interest etc.
We have holidayed in France in numerous houses over the last five or six years and we have to say that this property has been the closest we have come to perfection.
The owners were so helpful that even when we were looking for high chairs or baby cots it was not a problem.
Finally it has to be noted that unlike most holiday homes the beds were so comfortable that even with three children shouting at you , it was very difficult to get up each morning. Anybody who stays in this house will have no complaints.

The rest we all needed

HelenMW United Kingdom
Review Submitted: July 29, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We drove down to Fongrive Haut from St Malo, where we had sailed on the fast cat from Poole. The drive down took 7 hours but was worth it. Because we had already been sent the key we were able to arrive when we liked and not have the feeling that someone was waiting for our arrival. The house when we arrived was clean and tidy and there was a welcome basket with some basic essentials waiting for us. The Children soon discovered the table tennis table in the basement and the tennis and Badminton rackets in the games/UK channel TV room.
The Kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of cups, mugs, plates and glasses as well as cooking utensils.
The house is situated just off a road which has the occasional car and tractor passing and the neighbors are very pleasant and the views all around are stunning. From the rear of the property you look down over a lovely lake and on up towards the church, there are grape vines all around and from the front of the house you can sit out on the front patio and watch the sun set.
You definitely need a car if you want to stay at Fongrive as the location is quite rural but it is a great base for quite a few good days out.
Bergerac airport is about 20 minutes away and although we drove down, the grandparents flew over from Southampton which has a flight time of one and a half hours.
Putting all this together and despite a few days of bad weather, we had a fun and relaxing holidays, full of days by the pool and trips out to Bordeaux, Bergerac and St Emillion.
the house had plenty of space to cope with our party of two adults, two grandparents and two young children and we hope to return again in the years to come.
