It is a fantastic place to stay! We stayed 5 nights at a cottage and it’s just perfect! Quiet, beautiful nature, the cottage itself is very comfortable and modern, pool is super nice! Short drive to shop, restaurants and Perigieux. Would absolutely recommend and hope to stay again sometime again! Thank you also to the family who owns the cottages and chateau! Very nice welcome and helpful!
