The property is situated close to the river & within walking distance of the town & large supermarket. Old town ramparts, shops, cafes & restaurants are delightful but it’s very hilly. About 1hr 20mins from Bergerac airport.
The garden is lovely & established, the pool is excellent, very clean & extensively used by us. There are only 8 sun loungers & space around the pool is limited. Some flagstones are loose on the steps leading up to the pool. The pool is fenced & gated. A BBQ is available.
House is very historic & beautiful architecture especially in the sitting / dining room but it could do with fresh paint / deep clean throughout. Sofa seats are worn / torn and many of the light bulbs were not working. Has a large TV, DVD & satellite box.
The property boasts a number of showers but the top floor bedroom had little or no hot water at any time due to lack of water pressure & the shower in the Jack & Jill bathroom is a hand held shower attachment on the bath with no screens or curtains to allow the shower to be used fully. The lack of water pressure made it impossible for the bath to be filled.
Wi-Fi coverage is lacking at the top of the house & falls short of the pool area so be prepared to use your data allowance. The kitchen is functional - oven, dishwasher, microwave & double sink. Large fridge & freezer plus a wine fridge.
We were a large family group & had a great time. Kayaking is a must.
The local contact was very helpful & responded quickly to queries.
