Family with grandparents
The accommodation is all on 1 level. 2 large double beds with 1 large modern interconnecting bathroom with large walk in shower. There is another bathroom with old roll top bath and a seperate shower. A large bedroom with 2 single beds and a sink. Being a family of 4 with 2 teenagers and my elderly parents the property catered for all of us easily. We all had enough toilets & showers. The south facing pool was cleaned and mainted daily and was a perfect 28 degrees with nice steps and a seat u could sit on in the water to cool down when weather was too hot. Outside was a bbq and nice sized table and chairs. Its a quite location and is wonderful for star gazing. Nearby town and Montpazier are worth a visit. Owners are thoughtful, polite and leave u to it. U feel like the place is ur own. Lots to see and do.

Fantastic gite
Very enjoyable week in a lovely secluded setting. Jim and Jo were very welcoming and had lots of good tips for trips and walks. The pool was superb and there were lots of toys and floats to use, and a great shady area beneath a fig tree. The beds were comfortable and mosquito nets are installed on the bedroom windows. Highly recommend.

The Pudneys stay at Gite Gardes
Such a lovely Gite in a beautifully idyllic location. Peace and quiet Nice clean heated pool Great BBQ Bedroom views of Monflaquin Only a few minutes away from the supermarket and boulangerie, and a few more minutes, and you're in the town. Monflanquin is charming with a good choice of restaurants, and shops, the market on a Thursday was great fun. One of our days out was canoeing on the Dordonge, which was AMAZING!! Highly recommended. Thank you Jim and Jo, we really enjoyed our (far too short) stay, we will be retuning. Steve, Rachel, Elizabeth, Katherine, Thomas and Bella

Lovely relaxing break!
We have thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks at Gite Garde. The relaxed atmosphere, friendly welcome and spotless gite make it easy to unwind. The pool is the perfect place to soak up the sun. Thank you to Jo and Jim for being great hosts - available when needed but never invasive and great company to share some wine with on a beautiful evening.

What a find
My family and I stayed for 1 week at the end of May 2022. On arrival we were welcomed by Jo & Jim ( cats & hen) they made us so welcome. They were on hand for recommendations like eating out and places to visit which we appreciated. Location was perfect for supermarkets, restaurants and pretty places to visit. We have such a relaxing week as the weather was better than expected for the time of year and really made use of the super swimming pool. We wouldn’t hesitate to return in the future.

Great Gite lovely Location
A deer ran across the track the first morning we went out exploring and that set the tone for a fabulous two weeks! We loved the gite and we loved the area. We were very lucky to have 2 weeks of sunshine in Oct, which enabled us to experience the many activities to do in the srea and enjoy the numerous beautiful villages. Thoroughly recommend thus gite and the lovely owners.

Beautiful, relaxing location.
Jim and Jo were perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble. The property is a beautifully restored old stone barn with a contemporary and comfortable interior. The kitchen is well equipped for self catering. The outside areas are great: a north facing courtyard with views over the valley and Monflanquin, and a south facing patio with a lovely fig tree to sit in the shade of, and a good-sized pool to cool off in and play with the kids. There are also extensive grounds that we were free to explore. A car is essential and there’s not really much within easy walking distance (if you have small children as we do!) We would not hesitate to return.
