A beautiful house in an amazing location

Eric's place is stunning and in a fantastic location - we couldn't have asked for more. He accommodated us checking in early and was really responsive during our stay, as well as providing a great restaurant recommendation. There's lots to do in the area - markets, wine tasting, canoeing - and the house is a beautiful place to relax in the evening. One thing to note is that the pool is indoors - we hadn't realised before arriving - but there is a river beach for swimming just a few minutes walk away, which was perfect for the very hot weather.

Beautiful building, amazing location and excellent host.

Such a treat. The house has been very well renovated and the rooms are absolutely huge. Kitchen is great when you need to cook with everything you could need. The garden is beautifully maintained as is the pool with plenty of space to relax. The location is perfect, right on the river with shops and markets a quick stroll away. Great local community with regular fetes and food festivals. Great find and would heartily recommend it to anyone. Will visit again.

A family of 3 and a lovely dog:
I moved back to France with my family at the end of 2009 after spending 25 years in Manhattan, New York where we were in restaurant business. During the family visit in wine country, I have found my dream home on the bank of the Dordogne River. Come to stay with us in this Historic Home of Port Sainte Foy and enjoy what lovely villages have to offer......
