Response from the owner Thank you for taking the time to write a review and such a lovely one. We are glad you enjoyed your stay we try our best to make the house comfortable. People are always surprised about the pool having a view, as the house is on the outskirts of Sarlat people don't expect such a large garden. Thank you for being such lovely guests.

Response from the owner Thankyou for taking the time to write such a lovely review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay, we do try to take the stress out of arriving by providing a food welcome pack and little items to get you started so you don't have to immediately rush out to the shops. The guide books are just to help you get the most out of your holiday, and we do try to keep them up to date. The house is in a good location so you do have both benefits of being a walkable distance from Sarlat and having a large garden. Jeaneric does like most French men have a vegetable plot which is totally organic so when there is veggies he is happy to share them with our guests.

Response from the owner Wow what a lovely review, we really appreciate the time you took to write it. We were very lucky to be able to buy this house as to have such a large garden with a pool within walking distance of Sarlat is hard to find, they don't come on the market very often. It is a 20 minute walk into town but only a five minute by car, the advantage of walking is you might get to see the Badgers playing and it helps walk the calories off from all the foie gras and duck confit and cocktails! We are happy that you enjoyed your stay and it was such a pleasure meeting you all.

Response from the owner Thankyou for taking the time to write a review. The house location allows you to walk the scenic route into town but there is also the traditional route via the road, the short cut into town is my preferred route as if your lucky you get to see the Badgers playing. If things do breakdown which occasionally happens we normally can replace them quite quickly. The pool is cleaned and analysed daily by Jeaneric, he is also very happy to give guests recommendations about where to dine or visit in the area. The last few days of your stay I had my family 'over seeing' Lavendar Cottage as I was in Bordeaux but they hopefully had been well trained!

Response from the owner Thankyou for writing a review. As you say there are no privacy issues at the house as the bedrooms are on separate floors but if members in your party do not keep the noise down at night I am afraid that is out of my control, as you say sound does travel.
