Book a Fumel Cottage

"Perfect"

"We enjoyed our stay at the Paulhiac house very much. There were 11 of us - 2 grandparents, 4 parents, and 5 grandchildren from 8 to 19, and the property suited us extremely well. The owners live next door, and we found them friendly and helpful. Patrice looked after the pool in an unobtrusive way. In the hot weather the pool was essential . There is lots of space - fields and woods - around the house and garden, completely private.Within easy reach by car are several beautiful bastide towns or large villages, with excellent markets and interesting shops. We did not know about these and they were a fine discovery for us.It might be pointed out that the property is three separate buildings, but close together, sharing pool, terrace, kitchen etc. We have very few small niggles. The directions to the house were rather vague - a map would have helped. The kitchen equipment was good but for the lack of a sharp kitchen knife - a common problem we have found from past holiday houses. . In one bedroom (off the games room) there should be better curtain fittings. My daughter points out that there was no provision of washing up liquid, cloth/sponge of any kind, soap for washing hands, or dishwasher tabs. This made arrival on a weekend rather difficult (shops close at 1 on Sundays) and seems unnecessarily stingy. If I hadn't brought washing up liquid with us, we would have been totally stuck till Monday. But she says this is a small thing.We were very satisfied."

"Very comfortable Gite with a lovely pool, sitting out areas and beautiful views. Good for a large family or group of friends. "

"Good "

"We loved our stay at this property. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming. They provided us with a delicious dinner on out first night and waking up to breakfast each morning was such a treat. Everything is home made and fresh! I also had a lovely massage which I would highly recommend. The pool area is relaxing and picturesque, while our gite had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We hope we can come backa again soon, "

"Beautiful place and very convenient for our family gathering."

"We had a really lovely stay at this property, very tranquil and very close to the beautiful bastide of Monpazier. The pool is very welcoming in the summer heat and the sunbeds provided are comfortable.The bedrooms could do with a bit more storage, maybe a couple of chests of drawers along with some mirrors.The hosts are onsite and friendly.There are a few more bastides locally including Villeréal and Belvès - the latter has a fab night market on a Wednesday, just remember to bring your own plates and cutlery! "

"The cottage is located in a quiet rural location a short drive away from monpazier. It is very well equipped and has a lovely private pool and I would recommend this cottage if you want a ‘get away from it all’"
