Wendy and Dave are great hosts, and the location and setting with superb views make for a great vacation. The bedroom requires a bit of clambering because of the beams in this rustic property but worth it.

My husband and I enjoyed a very relaxing week at this cottage. It suits two people perfectly and the swimming pool was perfect for the hot afternoons. Wendy and Dave were very hospitable and friendly and their two dogs were a delight.

Very comfortable and well equipped accommodation in a great location with wonderful hosts

A spacious, comfortable and well equipped cottage with terrific panoramic views of the region. The property has great and secure space for pets and there is ample room for parking. It has a splendid and well kept pool with lots of space and seating for relaxing. The hosts, Wendy and Dave, are incredibly hospitable, friendly and helpful, and ensured we had a well stocked fridge of essentials on our arrival.

Where else would you find such a special place?!

A hill top pool with a view over a medieval chateau, surrounded by fields of golden sunflowers. Peace and idyllic isolation yet close to amenities, a glowing red sunset as you you enjoy your evening meal al fresco. Add in welcoming hosts, an ancient stone farmhouse ideal for couples or small families and this great value.

Perfect Gite

Lovely characterful property, with amazing views. Beautiful setting with a nicely furnished Gite. Great private pool, and peaceful patios to enjoy. Wendy and Dave were the perfect hosts, there if needed, but gave us our privacy. Lovely welcome pack , good location, would highly recommend.

Excellent gite in lovely countryside

We really enjoyed our stay and the gite and surrounding area met all our expectations and more. We were given a lovely welcome pack on arrival which was appreciated. Our little dog Betty enjoyed playing in the large secure garden and we loved our morning swim in the pool. Would definitely recommend this gite to anyone wanting to get away from the stresses of every day life.

A perfect stay

The property was beautiful and set in large beautiful grounds. A good sized pool and comfortable seating: clean house with all the amenities you could need. It was great. Wendy and Dave were absolutely fantastic hosts: finding the perfect balance between being there to assist but not feeling like they encroached on the holiday at all. The location was also very good - about 10 mins drive to the local town and supermarket/petrol station, and 30 mins to closest "nightlife". There also many beautiful towns and cities within an hours drive too.

A week in Edon

A very well equiped Gite with character and stunning views over the Dordogne to the rear and Charente at the front. Dave & Wendy Whiting have obviously thought through what guests would need and provided an excellent welcome pack, probably the most comprehensive we have had over a period of 23 years of Gite holidays. They made you feel very welcome which gave a good "feel" to the stay. The little things had been thought of and these made the difference e.g. their's was the first BBQ where I felt that I didn't need to wrap the meat in foil first!
