Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Sarlat, France

Sarlat: Sarlat dates back to around the 9th Century and some say before , but it was probably at the beginning of the 9th Century, with the founding of a Benedictine abbey that the real history of the city began. As time went on Sarlat evolved even coming under English rule for 10 years in 1360.! following repeated episodes of plague, famine & flooding and local uprising - Sarlat remained unchanged - indeed forgotten and slowly fell into dis-repair, totally unsuited to modern day living with narrow streets & lack of sanitation. But this handicap was to become an asset when the city was one of the first to benefit from the Malrux law of 4th August 1962. This law on protected areas quickly led to extensive renovation work. Today, this restoration work carries on an architectural heritage that remains the main treasure of Sarlat, indeed Sarlat is often used as a backdrop for Films such as Les Miserables and holds 'The Sarlat Film Festival' each November.

Surrounding Area: Once outside Sarlat you are surrounded by some beautiful countryside and stunning views. Take a trip along the Dordogne river on a gabarres, or if you fancy a bit of exercise the canoes are worth a trip, bring a picnic and spend a day on the river. Explore the many caves and grottes in the area, and the cave paintings of Lascaux 2. See the sights from above by taking a balloon ride or a trip in a plane ! The rock formations of Les Eyzies are well worth a visit and the beautiful Chateaux/gardens of Les Milandes,( the home of Josephine Baker) Marqueyssac, Castelnaud,Fenlon and D'Eyrignac. Step back in time(100 years) and take a trip to Le Bournat, enjoy the fairground rides and workshops, visit the aquarium, or the new zoo reserve. Rocamadour about an hour away is well worth a visit, - a monkey park ,falconry, zoo, caves, fantastic views, and the pilgrim walking route, with beautiful churches. And for RELAXATION - the lakeside beach of Tamnies ten minutes away from Sarlat.

The Personal Touch: Our sole interest is for us to help you have a holiday that you won't forget from the first time that you contact us to your arrival, any questions or queries you have we are on hand to help. We will meet you on your day of arrival and help you settle in and then leave you to discover the wonders of medieval Sarlat We hope you enjoy your visit in this beautiful historic town and you go home with not only fantastic photos but many happy memories to put into your album. We have another property 5 mins from Sarlat in the countryside - property no 73244, you may even fancy a week at 'Le Pouget' we may see you there too!

Other Activities: Ballooning, Flying, canoeing, walking

A fantastic apartment in the heart of it all .....

Sarah&Nick Channel Islands, Guernsey
Review Submitted: August 17, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The apartment was in the centre of a picturesque city with lots to see and do and only a short drive from the river and tourist attractions. It was well equipped with everything you need to make yourself comfortable. The apartment was surrounded by plenty of restaurants and gift shops for those gifts to take home but a bustling market on wed's and sat's to buy lots of local produce to cook your own meals. The locals were friendly and helpful especially if your french is'nt all that!! We were welcomed into the apartment by fantastic and friendly owners who made us feel comfortable and were at the end of a phone whenever you needed them.
For our first holiday to France as a couple this apartment was perfect and gave us everything we needed and more!

Medeival Apartment

Jojan Runwell, Essex, England
Review Submitted: November 15, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Oh what a beautiful old town. We were lucky enough to stay in this apartment during Bastille week. The Old Town is kept very clean and there were entertainment going on during the day and evening every day, the highlight being Bastille evening.

The apartment is at the very top of a medeival building and furnished to a very high standard. There are 104 steps to climb to the apatment and although we did get puffed out climbing them initially, we soon got used to them and it was easy. We are both in our 70's but are fit.

One does not need to take a car as the train runs from Bordeaux to Sarlat and the owners will meet you at the station. There is a Tourist information place and one can get out and about quite easily but there is so much to do and see in Sarlat itself. That we stayed the whole week in the city and had plenty to do and see just walking around.

Hey! run down the stairs in the morning pick up a fresh bagette to eat for breakfast with jam, cheese, or ham. Yummy!

Owner's Response: Thanks for writing this review for us and we are so pleased that you enjoyed Sarlat again this time round after staying at our bungalow Le Pouget last year. Well done with the steps !! Sarlat is full of entertainment during the Summer months with many festivals, markets, street entertainment, the theatre festival, and the Fete Nationale (Bastille day) where a fairground arrives. If you don't have a car and arrive by train..we will pick you up at the station and take you to the apartment,then it's your choice if you want to hire a car, or relax in the centre of Sarlat. Hope to see you again in the near future. !

A great home base for exploring the Dordogne

First-timers in France Los Angeles, California USA
Review Submitted: October 9, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
The studio apartment is a comfortable size for 2 people - cozy, but spacious enough to stretch out a little, cook, watch TV, eat, and even do some laundry. We stayed for a week. There is not that much to do in the town of Sarlat, but it has everything you need: market, supermarket, internet cafe, ATM's, so it is a great home base. We did day trips each day to caves, hiking, canoeing, etc., and had our own little home to come back to every night. We loved it. Also, the owners are very friendly and helpful. This apartment is a great value and I highly recommend it.
Recommended for:  Adventure Seekers, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Thank you for your review, we are so glad that you enjoyed Le Grenier, Sarlat and the surroundings !!, and enjoyed coming home at the end of a very busy day sight seeing...! Sarlat out of the "High" season is sedate and beautiful, taking on a mysterious air, taking you back in time to the 15th century........you still have the restaurants, art galleries, markets, cathederal and winding cobbled streets hiding little treasure - boutiques, and is a great base to stay as it's surrounded by fantastic countryside, scenery and of course history, with caves, and chateaux, bastides, and food !! If you arrive in the "High" season (July & August ) Sarlat is a hub of activity with day and evening street entertainment, music festivals, theatre and exhibitions ..............plenty to see and visit..........! and ofcourse you have the modern conveniences you need to enjoy your holiday in comfort.

Perfect Location and Excellent Hosts

Tired Feet Alabama
Review Submitted: June 23, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
The location of this studio apartment is absolutely perfect, right in the center of the historical area. The amenities such as refrigerator, freezer, washing machine, microwave and cook top made our stay much easier and more enjoyable. We didn't hesitate to buy fresh vegetables, fruits and meats at the markets knowing we could keep things cool in the refrigerator.

You will love the ancient, exposed beams in the ceiling, too, and the view from the window. And since the apartment is on the top floor, it is well away from street noise.

Finally, our hosts Paula and Barry were outstanding. They met us on site to show us around and offer suggestions about the area. They live close by, and can be reached easily in case you need them.

If our future travels take us to Sarlat again, we will definitely contact Barry and Paula. Thank you for helping make our vacation very enjoyable.
