Problème avec l'annonce et le ménage

La maison est très belle et très bien localisé, nous avons malheureusement eu quelques problèmes, à notre arriver, les lits n'étaient pas fait il manquait un certain nombre de produit ménager ( papier toilette, éponge...) La maison était assez poussiéreuse mais globalement propre. Et sur l'annonce il était indiqué que nous pouvions utilisé la piscine mais la propriétaire a fait l'hivernage 24h avant notre arrivé sans nous en avoir informer... Sachant que l'hivernage devrait se faire à 15 degrés ou moins et il faisait entre 27 et 31 degrés...

Perfect base camp for Perigord region

Coffee with Susan was a great place for our one week vacation to the Perigord region. The house was comfortable enough with plenty of beds and baths for our 5 women group. Each day we drove out to the sights we had chosen and were grateful for the pool at the end of the day. Susan’s instructions to the small village where the house was located was spot on.

Wonderful

We had a great holiday here - the location is perfect. Very peaceful but close enough to amenities and all major attractions. The house is very well equipped and spacious. The pool/terrace was ideal for kids and adults. Communication from the host was excellent both before and during our stay. It was the perfect holiday for us and we would not hesitate to recommend this house to others. Thank you for having us!

Superb Accommodation in Tranquil Location

The accommodation, with 4 ensuite bedrooms, and a wonderfully private pool in a sunny garden was perfect for our family. The location was really good; just far enough outside the main tourist spots to be tranquil, but some local shops and good restaurants within a short drive, (or even walk), and the main tourist spots and activities such as cycle hire and walking trails, canoeing, etc all within easy reach. The range of equipment provided, from towels, linen, catering and cooking utensils, dishwasher, washing machine, an outdoor plancha, linen and towels, table tennis, dart board etc was extensive. We've stoped in many properties in France and USA and we literally wanted for nothing here. It was equipped like a home from home. The communication by the hosts was second to none; they kept in touch throughout our stay. We have visited the Dordogne many times over the past 30 years and this is the best accommodation we have experienced. We would recommend it without hesitation and it will be our first and only choice on our next visit.

Very nice house in a great location.

We were 2 families of 4 and really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, comfortable and spacious stone house, very well equipped and with a large pool. It is located in a quiet hamlet and in a very convenient location to explore the region and enjoy the activities of the Dordogne river...

Relaxing holiday

Wonderful 2 weeks in this super spacious and comfortable house. Located in a tiny hamlet with no street lights you can sit outside enjoying peace, a glass of wine and star gaze! The pool is amazing and a must when it gets hot. Lots of touristy things to do in the area or stay at home and relax. We were a family of 3 generations and everybody had a wonderful time.

"Coffee with Susan"

A wonderful three week stay - including the mid-July heatwave of 2022 Close enough to Sarlat and all the wonderful attractions of the Dordogne, yet tucked away in a tiny hamlet that makes you feel as un-touristy and part of the countryside as you could wish. We were a family group, three couples and a grandson. It's hard to imagine it being more perfect.

Maison agréable et bien située

Nous avons passé globalement un bon séjour. Les propriétaires sont joignables facilement et attentifs au confort de leurs locataires. L'emplacement est très intéressant pour visiter la région. La maison est propre et agréable, bien équipée, et dispose d'un espace nuit idéal pour des familles nombreuses . L'intendance est assurée par un voisin très disponible et à l'écoute des vacanciers pour résoudre les éventuels soucis rencontrés (nous concernant : machine à laver remplacée, chasse d'eau d'un toilette remplacée, WiFi rechargé, ..). Quelques points négatifs cependant en toute objectivité : la route traversant le village est à proximité immédiate de la piscine (et de la maison). Elle est très fréquentée pendant la période d'été (voitures, tracteurs, camions, motos,..). Le parking est trop juste (deux voitures moyennes max) et situé dans un tournant, rendant les entrées et sorties complexes et risquées. Enfin, gros point noir : le WIFI proposé est bien trop juste (airbox avec 72 megabits/seconde), et la 4G ne passe pas dans le coin. Une suggestion : prévoir une cafetière électrique plus pratique que la cafetière Melior proposée. Nous avons par ailleurs subi deux phénomènes pour lesquels les propriétaires n'y sont pour rien : la météo catastrophique et des travaux d'isolation extérieure de la.maison voisine, effectués du matin au soir tard pendant notre séjour.

Peaceful and so relaxing

The house is beautiful and situated in a lovely quiet Hamlet. The swimming pool is amazing and perfect for our competitive family swimming races! The gardens are so well kept. It was a difficult decision whether or not to go away this year but I am so pleased we did! Great communication with Paul and Susan. Very much hope to go back in the future to continue exploring this wonderful area of France

Clean, spacious, comfortable and in an excellent location to explore the Dordogne Valley.

Susan and Paul’s property is situated in a beautiful Hamlet near Sarlat. It’s peaceful, well maintained and a wonderful base from which to explore all the Medieval towns throughout the Dordogne. Susan was always responsive and helpful. Our children used the pool every morning and evening and enjoyed every moment. The neighbours are also very kind and helpful. In fact, on our arrival we were having some trouble finding the exact house and a neighbour quickly recognized we needed some help. We mentioned Susan’s name and she immediately got in her own car and guided us to the property. We were only 2 minutes away. We loved it.

Great holiday home

We had a lovely stay at coffee with Susan. The house is perfect especially for 2 families staying together. Separate ensuite bathrooms means that each family has their privacy. We stayed with two teenagers, one 5 year old and one 2 year old. The house is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a holiday. The two outside tables mean that there is always somewhere shady to sit. The pool is a good size for just 8 people. The gite is brilliantly located near Sarlat and close enough to the main road to make going to the supermarket a quick visit. The boulangerie in Carlux is easy to get to in the mornings. Sue provided lots of detailed information on the local area, places to visit and recommended restaurants. Many thanks

Gem of a property in a gem of a location

This is our second stay in the Dordogne and yet again we were not disappointed. 'Coffee with Susan' is a lovingly converted barn with great amenities that made our stay enjoyable. The weather was fantastic too! The location is quite remote but suited what we were looking for - a must though to go to the small boulangerie in Carlux for the bread and croissants, amazing!

Very happy with it-good

Loved the region & accommodation was good. Very clean & well maintained. Good service & briefing notes from manager. Pool was essential & very good . Would recommend it. Good location & recommendations from manger on restaurants was excellent. Needs a name on the house as GPS had us entering town from wrong direction & took some time to find it initially although it is only a small town.

Excelllent house for a family holiday

The house is exactly as described with a good sized pool and a sensible deep end, much fun was had playing water polo or relaxing on the lilos! The layout of the house is excellent with each bedroom having an ensuite bathroom which is a huge benefit when sharing with other families or you have older children who want their own privacy. The house was very clean and tidy and communication from the owner was excellent prior to the rental. There is plenty to do in the area Sarlat is only a 15 min drive and even in the height of summer the roads are not too busy. We would recommend canoeing at Cap Evasion Saint Julien de Lampon just across the river bridge on the right We also took a trip to the Velorail du Perigord which was about an 1hr and 20mins away which was great fun for the whole family pedalling the kart to the top of the railway and then racing back down Lots of choice locally and in Sarlat for food - we had an excellent meal at St Julihan Restaurant which serves a good variety of food to suit most tastes Cycling and walking is good either on road on the converted railways. If you are a keen cyclist the roads are good and there are plenty of hills to train on! In summary thanks to Sue for a very enjoyable and relaxing family holiday

Perfect for Families

There were 6 of us (4 adults, 2 teenagers) for one week. Being familiar with the Dordogne area, we knew we wanted to stay a bit off the beaten path, but still be near all the wonderful attractions the area has to offer. We also knew that we needed sufficient space for everybody to have some 'alone time', but also bring the family together. The house fit the bill perfectly! With a well-eqipped kitchen, separate bathrooms, a pool, table tennis, and a delightful patio we were able to cook, play games and relax after busy days sightseeing. Absolutely loved visiting Sarlat (repeatedly) as well as Carlux (great restaurant and bakery). The listing was accurate, the property clean and well-maintained and Sue provided fabulous customer service---I can recommend this property without hesitation.

Perfect honeymoon retreat

After a busy few weeks moving house and getting married, we arrived needing some quiet and a place to relax. This turned out to be the perfect place. The house was spotlessly clean and in good condition and we were impressed by how cool it was inside considering the heat outside. The well equipped kitchen meant that we could easily cook for ourselves . We enjoyed using the private pool and laying about in the sun on the loungers. In the evening, we ate in the outside dining area watching the sun go down. The area around the house is quite rural but thanks to the information from Sue, we found a rustic restaurant which you could walk to and there was plenty to see and do a short drive away. We recommend visiting Sarlat and Domme and canoeing along the river from Carsac. Would recommend for quiet and relaxing hols in an area where there is plenty to see and do.
