We stayed in the two bedroom gîte for a week in late August and are still charmed and amazed by the time we spent in this brand new gîte and with our hosts Iwona and Dan - without forgetting Bum Bum, Bob, and George. By the way, our daughter (17 months) still asks us, where Bum Bum ("Toutou") is. The place is great, the gîte brand new and arranged with love for the details. The pool is just in front of the gîte's door and there is a beautiful space to have lunch and dinner outside. The location is also perfect in the Périgord Pourpre: within a max 30 minutes drive from the gîte you can visit Bergerac, the Château Monbazillac, the Dordogne loops near Trémolat (Cingle de Trémolat), the Panoramic Garden in Limeuil, Monpazier, and many more.
I was skeptical about the possibility of really getting into holiday mode within just one week, but the switch was instantaneous with Dan and Iwona's warm welcome and the calm and wonderful context! The place is the perfect location for a completely relaxing and easygoing holiday by the pool with visits to Lalinde or a more active holiday with cycling along the Lalinde canal and the many possible sites and villages around.
Thanks to Dan and Iwona for their availability and for making our week at their gîte a wonderful time!
