About this property

Farmhouse with Private Swimming Pool and Hot Tub

*** Private swimming pool and large jacuzzi with other onsite facilities ***

Situated in 56 acres of our own meadows and woodland. The farmhouse is set within a large private courtyard. The 200yr old stone built farmhouse is equipped with a modern touch while not losing that traditional French feel. The kitchen is hand made from using local chestnut timber, there is a six burner gas hob and double oven rangemaster cooker so the self catering can be much for enjoyable and stress free with the amount of people in your party. There is a four seater table in front of the log burner in the kitchen area for those early risers or late evenings chatting in front of the log fire. There is also a large solid oak dinning table which comfortably seats 8 people.

To the front of the farmhouse there is a terrace with outside dining and bbq area, to the rear of the farmhouse there is an enclosed garden with private swimming pool, laid to lawn with shrubs, also great for outside dining and bbq's.

Private 7 x 4 metre pool with fencing to meet approved safety regulations with pool gate.

There are many onsite activities to keep everybody occupied should you wish, including badminton, table tennis, table football, basketball to mention but a few.

This quiet, tranquil setting is ideal to relax and unwind and enjoy the fantastic views of the Perigord National Park and it's wildlife but within easy distance to many attractions including Limoges and Brantome (otherwise known as Little Venice), as well as beautiful safe swimming lakes, canoeing and numerous french markets, making this the ideal holiday destination for all.

Wonderful Week!
We spent a fantastic week at the property. Our party was made up of 4 adults and 2 children (aged 7 and 2). The pictures of the property do not do it justice! It’s spacious, clean and has everything you need for a great holiday. The location of the property is ideal for exploring all that the Dordogne has to offer. We visited Brantome, Périgueux and Oradour-sur-Glane, all of which are mentioned in the welcome book. Leigh was was very friendly and welcoming. The large pool along with the hot tub was a huge hit with all. We didn’t use the small private pool as we were the only guests there. We were all sad to leave! Thank you for a brilliant week.

Peaceful Location
The farmhouse is quite remote, situated in beautiful countryside. This suited us very well as we wanted a relaxing holiday. The hosts Leigh and Dave were very helpful when anything was needed and ran a delightful little restaurant on site, which was always well patronisd by local people and visitors to the area. The two swimming pools were lovely and much needed when we were there in 30+ degrees. We had a very enjoyable holiday and would thoroughly recommend the farmhouse and the area.

Séjour reposant et services omniprésents
La location est pleine de charme au sein d'un petit hameau non loin du centre de Miallet (5km) et ses commerces de premières nécessités. Leight et Dave sont aux petits soins, aussi discrets que serviables au besoin. Tout est à disposition, piscines, fléchettes, panier de basket, ping-pong, pétanque, balançoire, et barbecue pour les plus grands ! Excellent séjour en résumé avec pour seul bémol la propreté de la cuisine

A French farmhouse in the North Dordogne
We had a wonderful family holiday in the farmhouse on Leigh and Dave’s extensive property in the heart of the French countryside. Fabulous swimming pool and hot tub. Lots of activities for all the family- bike trails,BMX track, table tennis, ball games etc. We were never lost for anything to do. Local markets, interesting towns, lakes with beaches, animal parks. We must not forget the great food in Dave’s restaurant

Stay with two young families
We had a great trip to Leigh and Dave's property in June. The Farmhouse was plenty big enough for 4 adults, two toddlers, one child and a dog! Leigh made sure stair gates were put up, she supplied two cots and two highchairs for the youngest members of the group. There were also lot of toys and games for the three little ones. Leigh was excellent in responding to any questions we had (and there were plenty!) and both Leigh and Dave provided us with lots of information when we were there. The restaurant is being refurbished but Leigh and Dave were still happy to organise pizzas etc. We just ate in the farmhouse as it was so hot when we were there. There were lots of great lakes and towns to visit within a 20-30 minute drive. The farmhouse is in a really remote location, but we found that was the same with most places we visited whilst across in France. The area was extremely beautiful. Overall we had a brilliant time and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

French Gite Family Holiday
The farmhouse was clean cool and spacious which was great as the temp topped 38 degrees during our stay , open plan down stairs 8 seat dining area Smart TV with English sky free view . 3 bedrooms plus a two bed bunk room 3 bathrooms 4 toilets washing machine dishwasher range cooker private hot tub small private swimming pool larger communal pool table tennis and badminton nets . Leigh and Dave the owners live on site are very accommodating , they also run a small restaurant seasonally on site which is very useful. Would we stay again yes . It is a good 7 to 8 hour drive from Calais we added that to our holiday by booking hotel rooms on route and return to sample different areas of France which only made it a more cultured experience. If you want a relaxing time with family its great for adults and children alike feels like a family home . Leigh and Dave thank you for our stay with you we hope you have a great summer , Adrian , Rachel and the boys

Beautiful find and such lovely hosts.
We ended up staying in the owners own property which was amazing, but the farmhouse is beautiful too. Dave has done most of the work himself and is a true craftsman. Nothing was too much trouble. The land surrounding the pwwas stunning, and there is so much to do if you are prepared to drive a few miles. The local lakes are wonderful, if you get to them in the morning you can have the whole lake to swim in by yourself. Pleanty of places around to eat, drink, visit and watch the world. Equally you could stay the whole of your holiday at the property and escape from the rat race. The recent addition of a restaurant is an added bonus, paethe stone backed hand made pizza. This is a place you have to try.

Perfect relaxing family holiday
The hosts Leigh and David were great, they made us feel at home and couldn’t do more to ensure our stay was relaxing and stress free. All the facilities were brilliant, from a lovely farm house with all mod cons, to a wonderful pool area and great outside space for the kids to run free. The restaurant on site was perfect and proofed a hit for all in our party. We’ll definitely be back to this hidden gem as it has been the most relaxing and stress free holiday we’ve ever had.

A beautiful tranquil location in a quiet part of the Dordogne. Great hosts and a brilliant gite.
Leigh and Dave are really hospitable hosts but also left us alone to enjoy the gite, pools and woodlands. The gite was extremely clean and well equipped. It is spacious and comfortable. The area is brilliant for cycling - quiet roads and beautiful routes.

Great property, really well equipped, lots of garden games, pool and hot tub.
We had.a great stay here, tucked away in a lovely part of France. Our children loved all the toys and games available. The house is well renovated and well equipped. The owners are lovely and are on hand if needed. The on-site restaurant run by the owners was fantastic and appreciated after travelling there. Having a hot tub and pool was great. The property has massive gardens and woodland to explore and situated at the end of a road there was no passing traffic so was safe for our children. Overall we would definitely recommend to all, especially families.

France cycling holiday
Beautiful French farmhouse, set in very tranquil countryside. The accommodation is superbly refurbished & has great facilities but maintains plenty of character, I found it a very relaxing place to be. Highly recommended for a cycling trip or to get away from the pace of everyday life completely unwind.

Fabulous Farmhouse
Wow. This accommodation is outstanding. We booked online from reading reviews and they could not have been more spot on. Everything was perfect. We had 2 one year olds and a 4 year old in our party and the facilities for them were brilliant (Stairgates, highchairs, cots, plastic cutlery and plates). The farmhouse, pool and hot tub were spotless, and Leigh and Dave went out of their way to accommodate us and ensure our holiday was perfect. The pizza night is an absolute must, we all agreed it was the best pizza we had ever eaten! I would 100% not even hesitate to return or recommend to a friend. Thank you Leigh and Dave.

Amazing place
We really struggled to find a great place on the internet and we were so worried after some of the stories we had heard. We needn't have worried, I can assure you this is a home from home, 5 star in our opinion. Beautiful home, garden, space, pool, hot tub and mostly owners Leigh and Dave. You really could not ask for a more wonderful property, setting and welcome. Everything is supplied down to books, games, dvd's etc, just turn up with your clothes and enjoy.

Superb winter break
We have just returned from our first winter break in an area we know well, and visit regularly. We could not have chosen better accommodation for the crisp and chilly temperatures. Right from the outset Leigh and Dave were as warm, welcoming and accommodating as their fabulous farmhouse turned out to be. The farmhouse was kitted out perfectly for winter – a roaring woodburner, cosy duvets and throws, electric radiators in all rooms all made the farmhouse extremely comfortable for a winter stay. All of this, in addition to a beautiful renovation, in immaculate condition with high spec equipment throughout. From the fantastic range cooker, oak kitchen,, ensuite bathrooms and useful utility, every need is catered for which made our visit an absolute pleasure. Looking at the fabulous swimming pool and the lovely private surroundings its clear that the farmhouse would be equally amazing in the summer. If you are looking for French character accommodation at a luxury standard, in a fabulous area with plenty to do, you couldn’t choose better.

Something for everyone!
We had a lovely time in this beautifully restored farmhouse which has the benefits of all mod cons whilst still retaining the character of the 200 year old farmhouse that it is. Very clean, comfortable, spacious and well equipped. The farmhouse is located in a tiny hamlet with wonderful views which makes for a relaxing time if that's what you want but there are plenty of activities on offer too by the owners Leigh and Dave.....'if the kids are happy'!.... and there's a lovely large pool which although heated we weren't brave enough to dive into in April! Not too far away are the pretty old villages of Brantome and Bourdeilles and some lovely lakes with beaches for bathing which are all well worth visiting.. Friday is market day in Brantome. All in all a perfect holiday....thank you Leigh and Dave!

About the host

Hosted by Leigh Smith

Host profile image
We are David and Leigh Smith and together with our son Ethan we run our small holiday business in Dordogne, France.

We are very active and love doing anything outdoors, especially cycling and love being out and about enjoying the beautiful surroundings and weather.

Why they chose this property

We bought our property in September 2002 on a spur of the moment weekend trip away and we thought it was a great location for offering cycling holidays.

Since bringing up our two children and carrying out the renovations on the derelict buildings, we have come to realize what a great place this is for families to come, unwind, relax, have fun and try to live life how we used to when we were younger. Here children still have the freedom to run around and play without having to watch their every move.

What makes this property unique

Why choose us over the others??

We are at the end of a small hamlet therefore very in a very quiet area. (The marker on the map is not quite in the correct area, we are at the end of Le Montechabroulet)
