Right from the outset, Sarah was very prompt with communication, which is always reassuring. Prior to our arrival, she sent through comprehensive information about shopping, things to do, places to eat etc. The house was easy to find and in a very rural location, so plenty of peace and quiet. The pool area is great, with sunbeds and sofas plus very necessary umbrellas. The pool was lovely and warm, and as we had incredibly hot weather, a welcome relief!As there were only two of us, we had no need to use upstairs, so had no need to use the stairs that some previous renters have commented on. Lovely to have decent saucepans available (ironic, as we only used the cooker once - we used the barbecue most of the time). If we visit the Dordogne again, we would definitely return.
