A real home from home

Le Pigeonnier at Domaine de Pemontier was the perfect home for our family for 2-weeks. The cottage was beautifully furnished and everything we could ever need was provided. The swimming pool is wonderful and we enjoyed the tranquility of the area. John and Lesley were the perfect hosts and went out of their way to look after us and helped us settle in and learn more about the area. Although the cottage is located in a rural and peaceful spot it is only a couple of minutes away from Issigeac which is a beautiful little village with a fabulous Saturday market, and Bergerac is only 15 minutes drive away. All in all a wonderful spot and highly recommended!

A secret gem

This place is so special. We had a wonderful week staying here. The house was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. John and Lesley has thought of every eventuality, which created a very relaxing environment. The outdoor space is fantastic and we loved the beautiful, large pool. The property is in a quiet location, but handily close to Issigeac and some super vineyards.

Heaven in earth!!!

This is a piece of heaven, beautiful Gite (4 persons) patio and bar-b-q area lovely, with a ‘’fabulous’’pool area.... the gardens are well kept. This is only 10 mins away from the airport, (car a must) driving was no problem along easy negotiable roads, some gorgeous little villages all within an hours drive, the owners ( John and Lesley) could not be more helpful, nothing was a problem!! Thank you for a fabulous stay...!!!! X

Perfect in every way

The Gite itself is perfect, SPOTLESSLY clean, nice and quiet, centrally located in a rural area whilst having easy access and well placed to visit the area and it's like being in your own home with EVERYTHING thought of and provided for. Our hosts, John and Leslie, were very helpful, nothing was too much trouble for them, both before and during our stay, quick to respond to any queries we might have before our stay and with lots of good ideas regarding places to go when we arrived. We ate in quite a bit, as the kitchen is well equipped but also went to a few local restaurants, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The local village, Issigeac, is quite the most beautiful place you are likely to see, just a few miles away, in fact, we walked to it across the fields and Bergerac, a bigger town, maybe 10 miles. Both are well worth a visit, with local markets and lovely buildings and every way you turn there is a Chateau. The comments book are full of really positive comments, with one couple from New Zealand, staying 10 weeks - all I can say is lucky them, as we would have liked to have stayed 10 weeks too! So we definitely recommend John, Leslie and their lovely Gite .. and of course the local wine! Tim & Jan

Wonderful place to stay!

This place is a little piece of French paradise! 4 of us stayed for 10 nights in the smaller gite and hired a car from Bergerac airport (which is an easy 10 min drive away). We were welcomed by Lesley and John and shown around. Throughout our stay both were available for advice and there were a good amount of local leaflets and also an information file in the gite (very used by us!!) The gite was beautiful and very cosy, with plenty of space for 4 of us. The kitchen had everything we needed and we even had a little welcome basket of goodies. The beds were comfortable and the shower was quite powerful. There was a hairdryer, iron, washing machine & dishwasher and gas BBQ. We loved the patio outside our bedroom, which was a real sun trap all day - we had many BBQs there. The weather was a little disappointing however we had enough good days to be able to lounge by the stunning pool area and enjoy the garden (there was badminton and bikes available should you want them). Just to the right of the property was a nice walk through the sunflower fields. The ideal thing about this place is its location, though it feels in the middle of nowhere and very peaceful. The local village - Issigeac- is a 5 min drive away, with a couple of small general stores, 3 boulangeries and some lovely restaurants (the pizza place does lovely take away and La Bruceliere was fantastic, but you need to book). We loved the Sunday market and the Thursday night market. Monbazillac is a short drive, with its lovely chateau, and the small village of Emyet is worth a visit. Bergerac is 10 mins away by car, with some good supermarkets on the way. Bergerac is a beautiful town, with a pretty river and wonderful old town, well worth a wander. The cathedral is breathtaking inside!!! We had 2 nice meals there - La Rouge et La Verre and Table de Marche (strange food combinations and more expensive but good!). We also went further afield to see the beautiful Jardins de Marqueyssac (stunning views) and took a canoe trip down the river with Canoeric (recommended by John), both over an hour away. 2 of us also went to St Emillion and really enjoyed it there. We also did a little wine tasting around the area. Overall I would highly recommend this property for its location, peace, facilities and proprietors, and we definitely intend to stay there again!

Book this place with absolute confidence

Thoroughly enjoyable stay. The owners Lesley and John have high standards and were such fantastic hosts, being personable, attentive, professional, and knowledgeable about the region. I genuinely could not have wanted for more during our stay. Le Pigeonnier had bags of character, and balanced a rustic charm with all creature comforts and 21st century necessities. It was immaculately clean and all linen was provided. The properties are within vast and well maintained grounds, and the pool area, also very well catered with seating and shelter, was surrounded by dense greenery, offering good privacy. It was an excellent base to explore the regions vineyards, bastide towns and exquisite scenery. A couple of local villages, which had restaurants, general stores and boulangeries, were less than a 10 minute drive away, and a couple of huge supermarkets (in Bergeracs outskirts) were only 20 minutes away. Highly recommended.

Fantastic gite with beautiful surroundings

We stayed in Le Pigieonnier for 7 nights and wished we had booked for longer. We had a welcome basket on arrival which had all the necessary bits for breakfast and some lovely wine thanks. The gite had everything and more we could have asked for and John and Lesley went out of their way to help us out with child gates and pushchairs so we didn't have to take any with us which was such a help as we have 3 yr old twins which come with a lot of baggage! The gite was very clean well laid out and had lots of outdoor space for bbq's, relaxing and for the kids to run around. The pool is a great size and there was plenty of seating and shade around it if needed. It is a great base for exploring as there is so much to do and see nearby, aswell as some lovely restaurants, cafés and shops a few minutes car drive. Only a 15 min drive or so from the airport which is always a bonus. We will certainly be returning and recommending it to family and friends. Thank you for a lovely and relaxing stay.

A thoroughly enjoyable week in a rural location.

This is, without doubt, the best gite we have stayed in in France. Everything you could possibly need and very clean, well-maintained and comfortable. The on-site owners were warm and friendly and attentive to our needs, without being intrusive. We will definitely return here and would recommend it to friends and family.

A wonderful & welcoming house with stunning pool

We stayed for a week at Le Pigeonnier in August with our two sons (8 and 5). We had a wonderful welcome from John & Lesley who really are great hosts. We spent most of the week in the gorgeous pool (well set up for kids, with shallow steps to enter and a large flat shallow end, but also long enough to have a decent swim in). We dragged ourselves off the property a couple of times to explore the Dordogne region, with canoeing, vineyards and the lovely local town of Issigiac. We enjoyed a medieval evening in Issigiac square, plus a night market for great street food. The only potential downside is that the Pigeonnier is 400 years old and so has lots of character - the rooms are on different levels and the stunning attic mezzanine room is up a v. steep flight of stairs - wouldn't suit the elderly! Apart from that, I would definitely recommend this property, and we plan to return ASAP, hopefully for a fortnight next time! Thanks John & Lesley for being the perfect hosts!

Great holiday rental

Had an excellent holiday at Domaine de Pemontier. Le Pigeonnier is a converted pigeon loft - think French pigeons lived in luxury judging by the quality of the building. 2 bedroom property was really well equipped. John and Lesley had thought about the basics to make a holiday easier - provision of miscellaneous groceries on arrival was much appreciated - milk, fruit juice, butter, wine, etc. Really comfy beds and decent linen and towels too . Excellent location just 10 mins drive from Bergerac airport. Large and spotlessly clean swimming pool with loads of umbrellas and a large sun canopy for shade. Highly recommended

Fantactic!

A fantastic location for a relaxing, peaceful break. The accommodation is very well appointed and has everything that you might need. The swimming pool is large and very well maintained with plenty of sun loungers and shaded areas, there is also lots of space around the gite with a lovely terrace where we enjoyed lots of wine, BBQs, watching red squirrels!!and watching the sun go down. The owners John & Leslie were wonderful and nothing was too much for them and we can't thank them enough for making our stay such a pleasure. Highly recommended!

Pemontier - Parfait!

The location and site are superb as a base for touring the region with Bordeaux or Roque Gageac only about an hour away, and pleanty of other small villages, vinyards and chateaux much closer. Issigeac is 10 minutes away and is excellent on market day! In addition there is plenty to do and if you like walking, go karting, river trips (we had ours from Beynac and viewed black kites wheeling overhead)...well the list is quite long and an internet search will no doubt tell you all you need to know. We flew in to Bergerac from Southampton which was an quick and easy way to go, and hred a car from Buggs at the airport (pre-booked) which still starts you with a full tank and asks that you end with a full tank rather than some which expect an empty tank on return so that you pay for a full tank of fuel. A car is a must for this site. We were part of a party of 10 so had both the Pigeonier where we stayed, and the Grange where friend stayed. The Pigeonier is compfortable with good amenities as described in the web page. The patio is a great suntrap for most of the day with table, chairs and parasol. The grounds and pool are excellent and everying you need is provided - no towels on sunbeds at 8.30 in the morining needed! There are bikes to borrow if you fancy a bike ride, but make sure you know how to use all of the gears as some of the hills are fairly steep - but ok in very low gears! If you have both gites, there is plenty of space in The Grange (where we actualy stayed last year) for everyone to eat or get together both inside and on the terrace where BBQ's are provided. If not then there is plenty of personal space and they don't overlook each other. Food shopping is easy and there are two supermarkets just around Bergerac about 15-20 minutes away. Local vinyard Clos de Verdots does good red and white wine and is 5 minutes down the road. If all of that sounds good, the best bit is the welcome and attention from John and Lesley - they are just superb hosts and nothing is too much for them if it makes your stay as good as you could want it to be. They keep the whole site to a very good standard and are around most times to help with anything you may want, including which places might be of interest or what the local attitude to driving may be (speeding is not welcomed and can be expensive, and full stop at a stop sign is expected!). Thanks to John and Les - we could not have asked for more and will be returning again!

Relaxing break

Had an excellent fortnight staying in Le Pigeonnier. The accommodation is spotless, spacious and very well equipped for a family of 4. The patio area with gas BBQ was lovely, very secluded and sheltered. The pool & surrounds are equally well maintained & secluded, with ample space & sun loungers for both properties. The properties are in a peaceful, rural area but with quick and easy routes to the main Dordogne attractions. We, also, enjoyed cycling in the local area using the quiet minor roads & bridle ways. The nearest small town of Issegiac, has an excellent Sunday market, weekly evening food market(cheap evening meal) & Medieval Banquet. John & Lesley are excellent hosts, nothing is too much trouble to them, and living on site means they are available to provide advice when required but each property is very private. We hope to visit again!

Truly amazing !

Le Pigeonnier was a fantastic cottage that surpassed any expectations we had. It was clean, spacious and very tastefully furnished. The facilities were perfect and such a beautiful pool. The grounds were immaculate and clearly loved by John and Lesley. John and Lesley made our holiday, so attentive, informative and good company. The local area is great for exploring and no shortage of towns to visit. Issigeac and Montpazier were amongst our favourites. Plenty of walking , cycling and canoe facilities within driving distance. Cannot recommend this holiday enough.

Happy Days

Our stay in St Cernin de Labarde was just perfect. We booked into Le Pigeonnier and had that holiday feeling as soon as we arrived. John and Lesley made us extremely welcome and we were particularly impressed with the superb accommodation, its stunning views and peaceful location. If you are after the finest hospitality, a slice of French living and beautiful countryside then this is it. We are already looking forward to our next visit in 2014.

Fantastic holiday

Cannot say enough about how relaxing and wonderful was our holiday at Domaine de P?montier: from the quality of the accommodation, to the fantastic location, the brilliant pool and the warm and helpful welcome from John and Lesley. Three generations spanning the under ten to the over seventies loved every moment of our stay. We all enjoyed the pool and the grounds with all the interesting things to see and do on the doorstep. Issegeac is a jewel. John and Lesley were wonderful hosts from our initial reservation to the lovely touches of welcome baskets and loans of badminton nets and advice on things to do or places to visit. Present but absolutely not invasive, a real joy. We aim to return but thing we might want to book early to do so!

Lovely stay

Had a short break with my daughter to visit the area. All arrangements were totally efficient , and flying direct from Southampton couldn't have been easier . The weather on arrival was fantastic but changed quickly so unable to use the pool unfortunately. Hired a car and spent few days exploring the beautiful countryside. Accommodation in the Pigeonier was fantastic, every need catered for and all facilities of the highest quality . Spotlessly clean too. John and Lesley were great hosts and very helpful . Look forward to staying again , and would highly recommend .
