Perfect setting for enjoying the region

A really wonderful place to stay - equipped to a high standard and with every comfort. The owners are extremely helpful. It’s a short walk to Issigeac (10 minutes) but on the edge of unspoilt farmland. Surrounded by trees the house feels very private without being isolated. The pool is lovely and very well maintained. We could not fault this property and enjoyed a fabulous week there - we’d love to return another year. Thank you Nick and Julia!

A lovely property

We really enjoyed our stay in Issigeac. The house is in a great location and being able to walk into the village to enjoy the markets and various fetes and events is excellent. The pool and outside area is lovely and the house is well-equipped. The sofas and inside table were comfortable on a few of the cooler days. We would stay again definitely. Communication with the owners was very good. Only a few niggles: although clear from the reviews that other families with small children had stayed, we didn’t feel the stairs were safe for a 18mth-3 yr old, both the gaps on the upper stairs and the large gap between the stairs and the floor upstairs: there are stair gates though so you can control access.

We had a fabulous stay at the cottage. The location and description was as described. Fabulous for a stroll into Issigeac and our favourite Sunday market! The house was well equipped and the owners have great taste! Would not hesitate to recommend this to anybody, please book, you will not be disappointed!

Cannot wait to return!

We (family including 6yr old and 3yr old) absolutely loved our stay here!! The pictures don’t do it justice; beautifully decorated inside, plenty of room with amazing views outside with the pool and all the surrounding trees. Located at the end of a quiet country lane but literally a 5min walk into the centre was such a bonus! The town is stunning and possibly one of the view most beautiful places I have ever been. Hosts communicated very well and Ron who looks after the house, was helpful too. All in all cannot fault it in any shape or form :-)

Prachtig huis in Issigeac

Family stay in Issegiac

Just back from a wonderful second stay in Issegiac. Everything was as good as we remembered from last time. New kitchen and bathroom are a good addition. The gite, pool and location are perfect for 3 generations.

Perfect location and excellent accommodation close to Bergerac

An absolutely fantastic house in the most idyllic position. We have had the good fortune to book a number of holiday homes in rural France /Italy and while they have all been beautiful they are usually a drive away from the nearest village or town. Le Fourisseau is literally a few minutes walk away from one of the most charming villages you could hope to find, with stunning medieval houses and superb restaurants. The house is very comfortable and situated in large grounds with a lovely outdoor shady eating area and beautiful pool. An added bonus is proximity to Bergerac Airport and the town, plus easy access to countless charming bastide towns and villages. Owners Nick and Julia have been really great to communicate with and super helpful. One of the best holidays we have ever had

A pleasant place to stay in a lovely location.

Peaceful location, and perfect for the southern Dordogne. Excellent swimming pool, with a large outside table and chairs under cover. Very well equipped farmhouse. Lots of insects/bugs given the location and the fact it's a farmhouse, but only to be expected. Nothing is perfect wherever you stay, but niggles here were the uncomfortable bed mattresses, the pool which needed a good hoover at the bottom, and poorly maintained Webber Kettle BBQ. Overrall though, our stay (5 people), was enjoyable.

Great gîte in amazing location

A traditional stone house sympathetically and tastefully restored to provide a lovely place to stay. The entire ground floor has recently been updated and provides a lovely cool place to relax out of the heat of the sun - or if, on the rare occasion, it rains. The pool is great and the covered dining area is somewhere all guests will appreciate and use. There are also plenty of games, books, DVDs etc for your use - including those for outdoor/pool - along with a table tennis table. The owners are amazingly responsive and all communications I had were very timely, pleasant and positive. I would definitely recommend a stay at Le Faurissou as you have plenty of space and peace and quiet whilst being just a few minutes walk from Issigeac and its facilities.

Wonderful Villa and location

Our family of 4 and our friends family had a wonderful relaxing time here. The villa is truly wonderful and Issigeac is beautiful. We all loved the pool and the children enjoyed the British TV on a morning when they were up at the crack of dawn, waiting for the pool to be opened! The owners Julia and Nick were very accomodating in these testing times and Ron who helps with the property was very helpful. We hope to come back again!

Thankyou for a wonderful stay. The location is perfect for a holiday. So quiet and peaceful yet so close to a beautiful historic french town. The wine is fantastic around bergerac! Communication with Julia the owner has been great all along and Ron the manager was really helpful. The whole family loved the pool too! We couldn't have asked for more!

Tranquil but close to town

This is a quaint cottage in a tranquil setting. It's pool is a welcome cool-down from the French summer sun. Close to the medieval town of Issigeac, with it's vibrant markets and bars; with good restaurants and historical architecture,and a stroll back to the cottage for a dio in the pool or games of table tennis. We had a thoroughly relaxing and enjoying stay and would highly recommend a trip to the inland lakes. Ron and the owners a very kind and helpful. We will definitely try to get back.

Idyllic....

Situated a few minutes pleasant stroll from an unspoilt medieval village, with shops and restaurants, this roomy converted old farmhouse has everything to make a perfect holiday. The pool, large garden and games provided were great for the kids (and us), and all contributed to a memorable holiday. Don't miss the Sunday market and the Thursday evening al fresco dining in the square, which starts at 7pm. Our favourite lunch venues were Le Deyonne and La P'tite treile, and dinner at La Bruceliere. Good use was made of the barbecue, with good kebabs, steak and sausages from the village butcher. Really, you don't need a car, unless you have the urge to investigate the surrounding area (and there are lots of places to visit), but everything is available in the village - general provisions from Spar, a morning trip to the boulangerie for bread, croissant and chocolatine....oh, and wine, of course, from the shop in the square In all a perfect break.

Great secluded property close to the village centre

We have stayed in Issigeac for many years now and this property is one of the best! Just off the beaten track with so much outdoor space this place is perfect! Inside the property was furnished and looked after to such a high standard. We will be coming back to this property on our future returns to Issigeac

Beautiful property with lovely pool

We loved our stay here. The only slight downside is that we were expecting 3 toilets but there were only 2, one of which was upstairs. Also, the upstairs is not easily accessible for everyone because it requires twisting and ducking under beams! It’s is lovely though :-)

What a lovely villa in a nice quiet area which had great things for the kids to keep them occupied lovely large garden to run around in,Plenty of inflatables for the kids to use in the swimming pool,My son enjoyed it because it had a table tennis table. The markets in Issigeac on a Thursday Friday night are definitely worth a visit as is the Sunday morning market all in the square. Absolutely wonderful to have a holiday

About the host

Hosted by Julia Keitley

We are a family of four from Hampshire. We have had many happy holidays in Issigeac and the surrounding area and when the opportunity arose to buy an old stone farmhouse on the edge of the town we couldn't resist it!

Why they chose this property

Issigeac is a beautiful place with a fascinating history. It has long been a family favourite. The town is well-served with restaurants, cafes, bars and shops. Several of the restaurants are highly rated on Tripadvisor and attract visitors from miles around. We love the gentle rolling countryside in this part of France and the picturesque old houses nestled in the vineyards and the sunflowers. Issigeac is just 10 miles from Bergerac Airport and a great base for touring in the Aquitaine Region.

What makes this property unique

Our house is perfectly located just a short walk from the centre of Issigeac and yet in a secluded position on the edge of the countryside. The house is tucked away down a country lane and so there is no traffic. We love being able to stroll into the town and to leave the car behind. There are also some lovely walks from our doorstep. Our house and the village of Issigeac were featured on the BBC Programme "Escape to the Continent" (Series 2:2 Dordogne).
