Fabulous gite to stay in
What a fabulous place to stay in! ... And such lovely hosts too, Henri-Louis and Cosima, we just loved staying.
Everything you need is there... and more! Our hosts had provided little welcoming treats too... as well as plenty of information and maps about local things to do and all the utensils that you could need.
The best part about this place is that it's located out in the country, so peaceful, quiet and relaxing. You could just keep drinking in that view and never get enough. The kids just loved the 'old farm' feel and exploring around the buildings and the games room. They wanted to stay on!
Amazing how well the stone buildings insulate against the cold and there's a heater if you need it. For us Aussies from Queensland, it was much like our typical winter days, so we didn't use the pool, but it looked pretty inviting!
Have to say that our French is fairly poor, but we were able to easily chat with Henri-Louis and Cosima and felt right at home with them. Even when I needed a couple of extra tools to use, they found them and loaned them to me, so I could complete a delicate task.
We love the Perigord Noir and the Dordogne area and our stay here in Fond de Gaume made it our visit all the more memorable. Would definitely recommend it to any families planning to travel through France.
