Great house in Perigord Noir

This house satisfies all the requirements for a relaxed, enjoyable stay: easy access by car with parking next to house. Lovely walk to mideaval central village with shops and restaurants. Great central location for day tripping. House is comfortable and functional but not fussy so you can relax and enjoy the space. Wonderful balcony with table overlooking the countryside for coffee/cocktails/dinner. The owners are fantastic to work with.

Genuine rural French living experience

Nestled in the residential part of a small French hillside village, lovely valley views whilst having breakfast and evening wine & cheese on the balcony. Belves is a delightful little community with all the characteristics of typical rural life. The only disappointment was the village bakery had closed down so had to drive a short distance to pick up our morning croissants and baguette for breakfast. Seven days of great weather, a chateau wedding, visits to Sarlat (markets on Wed & Sat ) and Monpazier (Thurs ) are highly recommended, the latter having a lovely wineshop- bought some delightful local wines enjoyed on the balcony + supplies to bring home.

Stunning views

The house is situated in a quiet street 10 minutes walk from the town square with shops, restaurants and bars. The house itself has everything you need for a comfortable stay and a balcony off the dining room with stunning views of the town and across the countryside. We spent much of our time in the house here as it was just such a beautiful view ! The master bedroom is large with a sitting area and TV it also provides great views of the local area. The sitting room was good to relax in with lots of seating and provided a cooler space when the weather was hot outside. Having the 'House Book' with information on how to use all the equipment in the kitchen and explaining how to operate the TV, DVD player etc was a great help. We very much appreciated the information we received from the host prior to our visit about things to do nearby. This information was also available in the house with lots of useful maps and suggestions. The host was super to work with answering our queries prior to arrival and providing the instructions on how to get to the property and gain access well in advance. We had a fantastic holiday and very much look forward to returning to Belves.

Maison avec une vue magnifique!

Nous avons passé un séjour magnifique dans cette maison. D'abord, la communication avec le propriétaire a été très agréable. Nous avons reçu toutes les informations utiles bien à l'avance. L'arrivée s'est très bien passée. Nous avons trouvé une maison suffisamment grande pour 6 personnes, bien que nous n'ayons été que 4 😊. Deux salles de bains et une machine à laver se sont révélées très pratiques. Mais le plus agréable, c'était le balcon offrant une vue magnifique sur la bastide de Belvès. Le village est bien placé pour les visites en Dordogne. N'oubliez pas de visiter le marché de Belvès qui a lieu tous les samedis. Merci pour l'accueil, nous serons ravis de revenir.

The main disappointment is not having dishwasher

The house is just couple of minutes’ walk from the center of Belves. The view from the kitchen/dining room is magnificent. Everything was clean but requires some upgrades. The main disappointment is not having dishwasher.
