Classic French with a pool in quiet location
Stayed for 2 weeks in this lovely apartment- part of a classic French property with a garden and private pool. Although secluded the property is less than 10 minutes drive to Brantome with its many good restaurants and market. Some fine walks in the local area as well. Our hosts, Sandra and Alun, were very helpful about places to visit and great company over a glass or two of wine. We cannot recommend this property or location highly enough.

Nice little quiet place to stay
Nicely secluded spot to spend a week or so. Sandra and Alun were always ready to help where required but did respect our privacy. The weather was not the warmest (average 22-23 degrees) but still had a great time. The week before was apparently late 30-40 degrees which would have been a struggle due to lack of air-conditioning.

Dordogne Adventure
A fantastic little gite in an ideal location where hosts Sandra and Alun couldn't do enough for us. Only a short distance from Brantome where you'll find a collection of bars and restaurants set upon the riverside. The pool is amazing with stunning views, what a find - thankyou.

Hôtes tres agreables
Le logement est vaste mais bas de plafond 1.90 la piscine est à l'usage exclusif des locataires avec une superbe vue. Les proprietaires sont charmants nous invitant accueillir les pêches du jardin le raisin cherchant toujours à faire plaisir. Sandra la propriétaire vient même changer le linge à la moitié du séjour la laverie de leur maison est accessible aux locataires seul problème est que le logement sent l'humidité. La piscine le jardin et le calme restent les atouts majeurs.

Sandra & Alun Jones

We have lived here in France for 15 years and love the peace and quiet of our home which is situated in a small Hamlet of St Crepin de Richemont. We chose this place as we are 5 mins from the beautiful market town of Brantome, also called the Venice of the Perigord.
Brantome is a bustling little town throughout the season. We enjoy meeting our guests some of which
have come back over the years and we have formed
friendships and spent some delightful times sharing
a glass of wine and chatting about the area which is
truly beautiful.

Why they chose this property

We loved the house with the spectacular views and the peace and quiet of the area. There are beautiful little villages and towns to visit and the airports are
not too far away. Also there is no traffic to speak of and no pollution. Travelling around the Dordogne is so easy with good roads everywhere.

What makes this property unique

Our house suits us because it is divided into two apartments. We live in the larger one on the first floor and the smaller apartment is used for family and friends and our guests. That way everyone has their own space. We love sitting round the pool in summer and eating outside with the beautiful views and the fresh clean air.
We can walk directly into the woods and down into the main area of St Crepin de Richemont plus the Chateau de Richemont is 5 mins walk away.
