Fontoursine Holiday

We have stayed in a number of Gites in the Dordogne for a number of years now but this one is by far the best place we’ve stayed in. The location being 10 minutes drive to Bergerac airport and within easy access to the Bastide towns makes it an ideal base to explore the area. The property has everything you need and the manager, Chrystelle was so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely return to Fontoursine again in future

Just perfect

The pictures on the site do not do the property justice. It really is a home form home with everything you could wish for. Communication with host and property manager was excellent. Nothing was too much trouble. The property itself was spotless on arrival. Plenty of everything. We have had a great holiday and hope to come back one day in the future. Thank you for sharing your wonderful holiday home.

Tranquility and all you could need

The property is within easy reach by car from Bergerac airport or station. It is surrounded by lush farmland and has complete privacy and safety for little ones. The owner and keyholder were totally welcoming. The house is beautiful and extremely well resourced, even central heating and air conditioning units. A super swimming pool, bikes, table tennis and loads more. There is masses to do in the region - fabulous markets, medeival historic towns, good cycling countryside, river canoing not too far away, fabulous produce and restaurants. And loads of nature. A tranquil and very very comfortable and easy stay.

lovely house in beautiful woods

The house is large and comfortable and has an excellent pool and outdoor sitting area. For us, with two members of our party with mobility problems, it was almost ideal as it’s all on one level.

Traditional gite but with all mod cons.

Spacious, comfortable gite although as the weather was so good spent most of time by or in the pool. Good location for exploring the Dordogne. Nearby Issigeac is a little gem with a really great Sunday market.

Fabulous Fontoursine

One of the best kept and well equipped holiday homes I have rented. The pool is marvellous and the on-site service of 5star standard. The countryside around the house is so peaceful.

Exellent

Trés belle maison, dans un grand parc , au calme , chacun y trouve son coin de détente. Equipement complet et fonctionnel. Chrystelle redoutable d'efficacité à l'arrivée et au cours de la semaine. Un temps spendide qui nos a permis de demarrer l'année en prenant l'apéro au soleil. Cette maison et son propriétaire ont cette faculté rare de rendre les semaines trés courtes et de vous donner envie d'y revenir trés vite. En plus il nous reste la superbe piscine à découvrir.... Encore merci.

Très bon choix

C'est la première fois que nous choisissons cette formule de vacances et c'était une très bonne expérience que nous espérons pouvoir renouveler! Une belle maison, fraîche, spacieuse, confortable, une grande piscine très agréable, vélos, table de ping-pong, nous avons fait un superbe séjour dans une région que nous ne connaissions pas et qui a beaucoup d'intérêt.

Superb 4 bed villa also good for 2

If you enjoy table tennis, cycling, swimming as well as lazing around the pool this is great. Everything you want is there and quality. Gas plate BBQ . We enjoyed 2 very comfortable beds. Hot showers. And a great quiet environment. We have been to the Dordogne 6+ times and this is the best by far. Blow your budget, book and enjoy - we did

Total peace and tranquillity at Fontoursine

This property affords all modern conveniences while preserving a rustic feel. It is very charming. The hosting support is excellent, and the pool very well maintained. Here you can enjoy an amazing array of wildlife and wild bird song undisturbed, while the speciality "vins liquereux" vineyards are also on your doorstep. Just a little distance away are the Vezere and Dordogne valleys, with gorgeous villages and prehistoric sites to see. There is something for everyone in the area. We recommend this property highly.

Super, well-equipped place

We really enjoyed our two-week holiday in Fontoursine. The property is large and nicely renovated. The house was very clean and well-equipped. The children loved the pool, probably the best we have seen at a rental property. Issigeac is just 3 km away and is a lovely small town. The location is great with many small towns to visit nearby. We would definitely return to the area and recommend this rental property to anyone. Special thanks to Solange for all her help during our stay.

Estancia perfecta en el Perigord

La casa era como se describía en el anuncio, tanto las fotos como la ubicación se correspondían. La casa estaba limpia y todos los enseres y utensilios en perfecto estado de uso. Tanto en el trato con el propietario, como la recepción por parte de la persona encargada de la casa fueron perfectas. Además había un teléfono y una persona de contacto para cualquier contratiempo. La ubicación de la casa permite visitar el Perigord Púrpura sin tener que hacer grandes desplazamientos, la cercanía de un centro comercial a quince minutos facilita mucho las compras, y la piscina permite relajarte después de un día de turismo. Y recomendaría la propiedad a un amigo o familiar ya que nuestra estancia fue muy satisfactoria e incluso tenemos intención de volver en otra ocasión.

Fantastic house near Issigeac

We had a great time in this house, the location and setting were perfect, the house was very clean and tidy and had everything we could have wanted for our stay. We were a party of two families with young children and it was a safe peaceful location, the pool cover also gave us peace of mind with the kids. Thank you Yves for all your help and assistance before and during our stay. If we could suggest one thing then perhaps another parasol at the pool.

About the host

Hosted by YVES PACQUET

Family house in the heart of a farm bought in 1956 by my parents.
Since I have chosen another profession, I have kept this farm of 17 ha of woods and meadows surrounding the house.

Why they chose this property

Since I live in the Paris area for work, and I cannot be in this house during the whole year, I renovated it and I have chose to rent it to maintain a constant high-level of amenities.

What makes this property unique

With 300 m of private access and an electric gate, this house is at the centre of a fenced park of 17 ha, ideal for relaxing and quiet holidays without being isolated from everything.
You will enjoy the private pool in complete peace.
The village of Issigeac is 3 km away and less than 5 min by car. It offers all the amenities like doctors, pharmacies, minimarkets, bookshops, butcheries, restaurants, bakeries and pastry shops... and let's not forget the well-known Sunday market.
Right in the Perigord Pourpre, in the middle of the AOC vineyards of Bergerac, you are also 5 km from the Castle of Monbazillac and its unique white wine.
Numerous outstanding sites and castles are in close proximity and they confirm the richness of the heritage of the Perigord Pourpre.
