An old hillside cottage, with a beautiful pool and stunning views

So much to see in the local area, and such a delightful place to stay, we wish we'd booked for longer. Everything we could possibly need was supplied, and the June heatwave made an afternoon dip in the pool a real treat. If we return to the Dordogne, it would be for a longer stay in this charming cottage.

Gorgeous villa, beautiful rooms, fantastic location, well maintained pool, magical view from the pool! We had the perfect family stay for 4 nights with two kids. Owners are super friendly and helpful. Please note that the pool does not have a shallow end and that it is shared with one more family.

It was our first time in the Dordogne and what a good choice we made. Charming, rustic gite with access to a shared pool in easy distance of places of interest. I am hesitant to rave about it too much in order to keep it available as our secret place to visit again and again. What made it extra special were the beautiful owners, Carolyn and Jerry. They couldn't have been more approachable, elegant, warm, helpful, kind and knowledgable.

We had a wonderful 10 nights staying in Walnut. What a beautiful location with simply stunning views- uninterrupted bliss! The cottage was everything we wanted, comfy, cozy and inviting. The pool was the cherry on top! With some of the most picturesque towns and villages in the Dordogne at your finger tips, this was one of the best family holidays we have had. Thank you!!

Excellent location. Beautiful surroundings. Exceptional hosts

Sometimes you find somewhere that just couldn’t be better. We did. It was here. Great people, great gite, great site, great location.

Beautiful gîte. So nicely done. Lovely outside and inside. Beautiful terrace. Amazing bedroom! Such a fab bed! So comfortable. Easy access to lots of lovely places. Carolyn snd Jerry have great advice and reccos. And made reservations for us where we needed them to. Lovely hosts. Unobtrusive but always there when we need them. Thank you. We hope to be back.

Lovely place in beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Close by all major attractions but just slightly off the beaten track. Thoroughly recommend Le Cantine in Daglan. Do book in busier part of season.

We (husband, me and our dog) had a wonderful time at Walnut cottage. Carolyn and Jerry have been most welcoming and great hosts. to us and our cocker spaniel, Toby. They gave us lots of tips for visiting nearby villages, castles, restaurants and the best place to go canoeing. The gite was home away from home, all that you need is there. The gite is nice and cosy and we were fortunate to have the swimming pool to ourselves. The view is breath-taking and it was so nice and quiet. A great break from the everyday hustle and bustle. Shame it was only one week. Thanks again for everything, Carolyn and Jerry. We certainly will come back. All the best, Jolanda, Martin and Toby

We really enjoyed our stay at Walnut Cottage. The gite is perfectly located if you want to go and discover the many historic villages and castles in the Périgord, while the pool and the view tempt you to stay put. The cottage itself has a lot of authentic charm to it and is very comfortable. Jerry and Carolyn are very considerate hosts without ever being intrusive. We followed their restaurant recommendations and had a couple of great dinners (Le Petit Paris!). In short, we immediately felt at home and had a great time.
