We had a fantastic holiday. Thank you for your kind hospitality. It was lovely to have that contact with you and for your advice and friendship. The Gite was so clean and tidy and very well equiped as we did cater for ourselves most of the time. Great views of the countryside and great seating areas for your glass of wine and a BBQ. The gardens and the swimming pool area was lovely. The village is so close to all the things you want to see and do and Sarlat is beautiful day or night. The meals we had there in the square were great, especially the steaks on the stone, excellent value for money. Thanks for the tip Pete, a great choice. We hope to return soon just the 2 of us for some rest and relaxation, peace and quiet. See you all Soon.

Lovely relaxing stay

Review Submitted: August 1, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We have just returned home after spending a lovely week as guests of Peter and Loren in the larger of their two gites.
There were 4 adults and 2 children in our party and we were very comfortable in the spacious,clean and well appointed accommodation.
The property is situated in the Dordogne valley between Souliac and Sarlat, in a lovely hamlet just below the wooded hills, 1/2 mile from the quaint little village of Calviac. The views from the lounge and main bedroom are beautiful,looking over the village towards the River Dordogne and the hills beyond.
The situation is very quiet yet handy to get to the sites of the area. There is a small general store in the village selling local wine for € 1 a litre, just provide your own bottle. Its coissants and bread in the morning are also outstanding.
The kitchen is large with a hob, oven, fridge freezer and washing machine, although it lacked a dishwasher.
The lounge has a large dining table, CD radio, Sky TV and DVD player.
The 3 bedrooms are lovely and the bathroom is modern with a good pressured shower.
There is a smaller gite next to ours and we were lucky to have a lovely couple staying there. Both gites share the pool which is very clean and a decent size. We were blessed with hot sunny weather for most of the week and made good use of the pool. Beyond the pool area is a field complete with a badminton net. Beside the pool is a box filled with pool equipment, boules, and badminton racquets etc.
Peter and Loren are a lovely couple and could not have been more friendly and helpful. They live in a house beside the gites and take an obvious pride in looking after their guests. On our last evening we all got together for a barbeque, which was a great way to end our stay.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return on our next visit to the Dordogne.

gite de tilleul

Review Submitted: July 22, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Just spent a week staying at a beautifull place in France.
Done to exceptional standards and spotlessly clean the Gite de tilleul was most welcoming and warming and the settings a delight.
With a superb swimming pool and well kept grounds i would highly recomend this corner of France.
Peter and Loren were gracious hosts and always on hand with friendly advice.
Definentley be back soon.

Exceeded Expectations!

Review Submitted: July 19, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The Gite Tilleul was simply perfect for us. Quietly situated in an elevated quaint hamlet with amazingly beautiful views across part of the Dordogne valley.The Gite itself was spotlessly clean, thoughtfully appointed and refreshingly cool inside with a delightful area right outside to sit and absorb your surroundings. Everything we needed plus more was provided and with the owners close by nothing was too much trouble for local advice and information. If you want to be out of the crowds but have good access to the plethora of activities on offer in this wonderful region then this wee gite is a total and complete winner.
We hope to return and now, wouldn't consider booking anywhere else as it gave us everything far exceeding our expectation.

Lauren, Pete
What an absolutley wonderful set up you have in france, the gite de tilleul suited me and my friend, especially the cleanliness and the views when we sat having coffee first thing in the morning looking into wonderful hills with a beautiful chateu and farm land straight in front of you, your discription was spot on.
I would love to visit again and would also not hesitate to recommend your bit of paradise in france, thanking you once again for a wonderful holiday.

Wonderful holiday

Beetle1303 Frankfurt, Germany
Review Submitted: June 14, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We stayed at the spacious Gite de Tilleul with 2 persons for a week - and loved it so much that we decided to add a couple of days...
The gite has been beautifully restored and equipped by Pete and Loren, the owners of this property. They made the stay very special to us beeing so helpful and fun to be around.
Sarlat is just a short drive away and there are tons of things to do: Canoying, Hiking, nice Restaurants, Caves and Castels - or just stay at the pool, barbecue and have some wine.
Strong recommendation to go there !!! We´ll definetly be back.

Wunderschönes, ruhig gelegenes Farmhaus

Review Submitted: July 18, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
Geräumiges,sauberes, wohnlich und komfortabel eingerichtetes Ferienhaus in romantischer Umgebung, viel Natur, schöne Burgen an der Dordogne, nah an Steinzeithöhlen gelegen. Entspannung pur am Pool und großer Garten, Vermieter sehr nett- geben Tips wenn man möchte, ansonsten merkt man sie kaum (wohnen ein Haus weiter). Ein perfekter Standort für abwechslungsreiche Familienferien, wenn man Ruhe sucht. Auch für Familienkanufahrten, zum Angeln, Wandern und Radfahren tolle Gegend.
