Dordogne house rentals

Amazing property. Views were out of this world. Hosts were friendly. Perfect place to stay.

Gite Salagre is situated in vineyards in the wine growing around surrounding Bergerac. The hosts Serge and Beatrice are exceptional in their customer service from initial arrival to departure. Fresh produce from the garden and a delicious home made tart set the tone for a wonderful stay. The gite is set in the Dordogne and served by a local airport. There are numerous places of both historical interest and natural beauty both on the doorstep and within easy driving distance. After a days sightseeing it was great to come back to the swimming pool which was there for our exclusive use. All the pictures accurately reflected what we found.

We loved staying here, it was idyllic and we really appreciated how beautiful the house is. We hope to come back

When we first read all of the reviews on Butterfly Cottage before booking, we thought that they really sounded a little bit "too good to be true". But we have to say they are all completely an accurate description of the property and its wonderful hosts. There really are no negatives! Linda and George, the cottage hosts, are the most helpful and genuine people you will ever meet. From the moment we booked, Linda was in touch with very useful information to help make the trip perfect. She provided suggestions of what to see and do in the area, helpful hints and excellent directions to the cottage from where we were coming from. The Dordogne area is absolutely beautiful! There are so many wonderful places to visit and many were only 15 to 20 minutes away by car. Would recommend canoeing on the river. One of our favourites. The cottage itself is stunning. The pictures on the website are great but it is even better in person. There is absolutely everything that you need in the cottage and lots of personal touches by the hosts that make it special. It makes a very comfortable stay. We had chef Dimitri come to the cottage to cook for us one night. He was amazing and it was truly some of the best french food we had tasted. There is also a larger cottage on the property but both cottages have their own private courtyard and areas and it really feels like you have it all to yourself. Butterfly Cottage is now a very special and memorable place to us, as it was on the grounds of the property (in the jacuzzi overlooking a pretty field) that we got engaged. A first at Les Hirondelles apparently! Thank you Linda and George for the lovely card and bottle of champagne for us to celebrate with. We would highly recommend a stay here! Peter & Katey

One of three cottages on the property it provided us with all we needed and offered wonderful views from the terrace overlooking the wooded countryside. We were only 10 minutes from Sarlat but had all the peace and quiet that the French countryside can offer. Alexandra our host was very helpful and friendly during our say. Highly recommended.
