“A Peaceful Retreat”

Written on: 17/09/2012 by Woggo (1 review written)

We spent a glorious two weeks at this lovely property. We were a party of five, ages ranging from 46 to 81, plus our Old English Sheepdog! The grounds are amazing, you truly feel you are in the middle of a woodland and very private. The pool is very well maintaned and the cleanest we have encounted but a little on the chilly side! A pool cover would be a good idea to keep in a few degrees of the daytime heat. The property is very comfortable, plenty of space for everyone and had everything... (read more)

“A tranquil haven in a beautiful region of France”

Written on: 16/09/2012 by Aljan

We very much enjoyed the private and peaceful location which allowed us to escape from a hectic work life. The accomodation is very spacious, well equiped and comfortable. It is a character property with a rustic charm all of it's own. The swiming pool is a good size with a deep end that would suite the serious swimmer among the guest. The water provided a welcome respite from the hot days we experienced during September. The large bathroom has the potential to be refurbished to add a wow... (read more)

“Charming farmhouse retreat in an idyllic rural...”

Written on: 20/08/2012

This cottage was everything we hoped for - a rustic but well equipped farmhouse in a quiet, remote hamlet, yet just up the road from Bourdeilles, with a choice of good restaurants, and only ten miles down river from the beautiful "island" town of Brantome, again with a choice of nice restaurants. The gardens, woods, pool and patios, coupled with very decent weather, meant that we didn't feel the need to venture far afield, but the Friday market at Brantome is a must, as is the half day...

“Met all our expectations”

Written on: 29/06/2012 by channelview

Les Chauses fully met our expectations as a rustically comfortable old French farmhouse with all mod cons and a wonderfully private large garden. The house is on the edge of a hamlet, so not isolated, but very quiet. We found the 3km to Bordeilles, with restaurants and basic shops, an easy journey, and enjoyed the access to lots of Dordogne locations. Don't expect a stylish or chic residence - do expect a traditional house, well equipped, and nice and private. We enjoyed: - good... (read more)

“Looking for Privacy but not isolation”

Written on: 18/09/2011

If you are looking for privacy without feeling isolated Les Chauses is for you. Very spacious house with lovely large garden and pool. House very well equipped. Spent a very nice week there in September. In a small hamelet but with plenty to see and do in the area. Brantomme especially worth a visit. English Satellite TV in lounge and 1 bedroom an added advantage. Would visit again. (read more)

“Secluded, charming and rustic French farmhouse”

Written on: 25/08/2011 by mandyhooper

Our first visit to the area but hopefully not our last. Les Chauses is a charming, rustic French farmhouse set in a spacious wooded plot. The pool is large (if a tad cold!)and the grounds offer ample space to relax or wander in. The farmhouse is well appointed with all the equipment you would need and the internet access a nice bonus. The stand out feature of the house is the amply sized kitchen with double doors onto a patio area that is a god send if the weather is not warm enough to... (read more)

“Best visit yet.”

Written on: 15/07/2011 by jacquidevine (1 review written)

Our 4th visit to Les Chauses and we were not disappointed. Pool is much better without the fence. It is a shame about the loss of several trees, but there is still plenty of shady spots where you can sit and read, or sleep. We were glad of the satellite TV system, it enabled my husband to follow Le Tour in english for a change and to keep up with events from home (News of the World saga excepted!) We had many plans for places to see, but as ever Les Chauses kept us at home more often than... (read more)

“Lovely peaceful farmhouse”

Written on: 20/06/2011

A really lovely farmhouse tucked away at the edge of a pretty little hamlet. The house itself is very well equipped and comfortable. A rustic cottage feel with modern comforts. The garden is very secluded with a good pool and sun terrace. The only noises you hear when sat in the garden are the birds singing during the day and the frogs and owls at night. Would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to get away from it all yet be within an easy drive of more touristy spots. (read more)
