The property is located less than a 5 minute drive from the historic castle of Beynac and a 20 minute drive from Sarlat-La-Caneda. It is an excellent base for exploring the Dordogne with multiple small villages, chateaus, and castles within a 30 minute drive. Many archaeological sites featuring cave paintings are less than an hour away.
A beautifully restored 18th century farmhouse with very clean rooms, modern bathrooms, enjoyable common areas, a heated swimming pool, and carefully maintained grounds makes for a relaxed and comfortable stay.
But the best thing about this property are the proprietors. Fabrice owns and pilots hot air balloons with the flights launching from the field behind the property. Stephanie is a fantastic hostess. As is to be expected, she is gracious and the comfort of her guests is the top priority. What was impressive is how she went above and beyond when I was having trouble with the shipping company that the airline used to send us our “delayed” luggage. She took it upon herself to handle the phone calls, spending quite a bit of time on the phone with customer service and handling emails with the company over the three days it took to resolve this issue. Finally, she refused my attempts to leave a tip or to compensate for the time she spent on this issue. We will not forget her kindness and generosity.
