Charming Country Cottage With Large Heated Pool In Monbazillac, near Bergerac
This stone built cottage consists of a large living room with a kitchen and dining area, one bedroom and a bathroom. It is attached to our traditional Perigordine farmhouse, but still maintains its independence. Situated on a plateau at the edge of the village of Monbazillac, it is an idyllic spot to sample the pleasures that the Dordogne has to offer and is conveniently located just 7 minutes from Bergerac airport. It has a lovely heated swimming pool (13m x 6m), shared with the owners, set below a rockery and not overlooked by the main house. One can walk through vines and woodland without leaving the property. The village of Monbazillac is quiet, dominated by its 16th century chateau and famous vineyards. Ten minutes away by car is the town of Bergerac, full of shops, supermarkets, cafes, restaurants, and of course, the beautiful old town (complete with Cyrano statues) and riverside port. There are markets on most days in the bastide towns, and night markets in the summer for local outdoor eating and drinking.

This was a wonderful place, ideal both for relaxation and from which to explore the area. The location was so peaceful and the gite had everything that we could need. We loved having the pool and Martin, Gwen and family were the perfect considerate hosts with great recommendations on local restaurants and Caves.
We’d definitely love to come back again, next time bringing the car to fill up on the amazing Monbazillac wines!
Great place for peace and quiet after visiting wineries and Chateau Monbazillac. It’s larger than the photos depict and quite comfortable. The bed is soft with down pillows so sleeping can be challenging until you adjust to a more relaxed environment. The room is dark when the shutters are closed. Martin and his family are welcoming and yet allow total autonomy.
We were looking for a restful holiday and this Gite provided that. The location set amidst the vines with no immediate neighbours was ideal for us. Not only did the accommodation fully met our needs but the owners got the balance of friendliness and respecting our privacy just right. In our own assessment of all the Gites we have stayed in over the years we have now found a new number one in our list and highly recommend it. We will definitely be returning.

Enjoyable week beside a vineyard
We enjoyed our time at this gite which is situated beside a vineyard and very close to a beautiful Chateu. The swimming pool is shared with the owner but we had it to ourselves the whole time we were there. We felt that some of the furnishings could do with a freshen up but there was everything there that we needed and the gite was clean when we arrived. The owner Martin was lovely and very friendly. If we needed anything he was very obliging and helpful.

Thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. We are planning a "freshen up" of the main room this winter, so if you are tempted to come back; you'll see the difference!
La maison bénéficie d'un cadre charmant et offre une tranquillité absolue.Le paysage est magnifique et nous avons adoré profiter du jardin et de la piscine.

Merci d’avoir été si attentif à la maison pendant cette période de fêtes. Nous vous accueillerons à nouveau avec plaisir.
Des hôtes à notre écoute, accueillants et super réactifs à nos demandes ou questions. La maison est totalement adéquate à l' annonce proposée, dans un endroit tranquil, au milieu des vignes et forêt. Super agréable pour se retrouver au calme en famille. Le seul bémol est que la maison se trouve loin des villes mythique de la Dordogne sauf Bergerac qui est à 10 minutes. Nous recommandons ce logement les yeux fermés et encore merci à Martin et Gwendoline pour notre accueil.
wir waren 10 Tage bei Martin zu Gast und wurden herzlich empfangen. Er war immer da wenn er gebraucht wurde und sonst unaufdringlich und hilfsbereit und freundlich. Ein guter Gastgeber. Die Unterkunft war geräumig, bequem, sauber und mit allem erdenklichen ausgerüstet. Das Grundstück ist riesig und in einer wunderbaren, ruhigen Lage inmitten von Weinbergen mit einem beheizten Schwimmbad. Viele historische Sehenswürdigkeiten sind in einem Tagesausflug zu erreichen. Wir würden jederzeit wieder hier Urlaub machen.
It may look like all the reviews are top notch but the reason is that there are very few places that deserve it , this little heaven is really all that you could wish for to rent for your holiday and deserved every star, it was a great stay , a great base from which to explore and a great host that give you alot of freedom on and around his property.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review. Very glad your holiday was exactly what you wanted.
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt auf dem riesigen, sehr gepflegten Grundstück in absoluter Ruhe sehr genossen. Das Haus bietet alles, was man für einen Urlaub braucht - auch für Selbstverpfleger ist alles Benötigte vorhanden. Direkt vom Grundstück aus lassen sich sowohl Wanderungen als auch Joggingrunden durch Weinberge und Waldstücke unternehmen. Auch wer lieber Kulturelles unternimmt oder den berühmten Monbazillac testen will, kommt hier voll auf seine Kosten.
Eine tolle Lage auf großem Grundstück, gut eingerichtet, umfangreiche Ausstattung der Küche. Hilfsbereite Vermieter, die für alle Fragen und Wünsche zur Verfügung stehen.
Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Das Gîte war genauso wie beschrieben und einfach traumhaft gelegen. Sehr freundliche und angenehme Vermieter! Wir haben den Urlaub sehr genossen.
Lovely property full of character and charm. tastefully decorated and with everything you need. The tranquil setting is beautiful, just outside of Monbazillac and a few minutes from Bergerac and Issegiac. Martin is a fantastic host and we look forward to staying with him again.
Martin if you wondered what we were doing on our last morning, we saw two hoopoe and were trying to get a decent photo! Thank you for everything, we had a super time.
Belle propriété au milieu des vignes, au calme, à quelque km de Bergerac et des beaux villages. nous avons reçu un bel accueil, Gwendoline et Martin sont très sympa et bienveillant, la petite balade de 6km qui parcourt les vignes en passant par le château de Monbazillac, est très agréable. Belle région a visité pour les amateurs de vin . On y a passé un bon séjour . on recommande!!!
Campagne, vignes, vieilles pierres, vieilles poutres, calme, un site et un gîte très agréable et fort bien équipé. Très agréable séjour.

About the host
Hosted by Martin
We moved here permanently in 2005, seeking a calmer lifestyle away from London.
Why they chose this property
The Dordogne area is already renowned for its gastronomic delights, especially the wine! We chose our house for its unique location - very close to Bergerac and its facilities, but at the same time completely secluded from neighbouring properties and roads.
What makes this property unique
We are perched on the Monbazillac plateau, hidden among our own vines. The most frequent comment we get from guests is the feeling of space all around the property. The pool is hidden from the main house and the gite, with a view over meadows leading to woods and vines.
