Beautiful stay on the Dordogne River

A lovely, peaceful stay in the countryside. The century old home is well appointed and spacious. Although we were not able to access the river from the property we had 3 beautiful days paddling in the Dordogne, hiking and visiting beautiful villages nearby.

Ein Aufenthalt mit Wohlfühlcharakter

Wir haben erholsame Tage in einem liebvoll und charmant eingerichtetem Haus, in dem es an nichts fehlte verbracht. Dank des herrlichen Wetters haben wir viel Zeit draußen verbracht, sei es im Garten mit Blick auf die Dordogne, sei es in der Umgebung. Es bestand ein herzlicher unkomplizierter Kontakt mit der Vermieterin, die uns gute Tipps zu den Ausflugsmöglichkeiten gegeben hatte.
