Beautiful Gite with Private Pool and Air-conditioned Bedrooms

The place is beautiful and set it lovely grounds. Tom is a great host and was on hand should we need anything. He gave suggestions of things to do in the area. The gite is well equipped for a holiday and the pool was wonderful to relax in on hot days. Beds comfortable and the bathrooms were very clean. We had a great stay and would love to return one day Thank you

My husband and I along with 2 other couples in our 60's booked our stay. The loft is not suitable for adults so I would advise against booking it for full size adults. One couple ended up staying at a hotel instead. However, the two large bedrooms were great. Comfy beds, great bathrooms, nice towels and a nice kitchen. Michèle and Andre were lovely and went out of their way to make our stay great with tips on restaurants and places to visit. We also liked having onsite washer/dryer at our disposal. It's a great location for exploring Bordeaux and the Dordogne valley. It was a very lovely place to visit and a great place to stay!

Loved staying here with our family from the UK who we hadn't seen for several years - Gite was perfect, hosts were very helpful and welcoming, location was great. Loved the pool and the location close to the Dordogne River - lots of bar-b-ques (being from NZ) which went very well with the Le Cleret wine. Thank you Michele and Andre!

We enjoyed our stay in Le Claret Gite very much. We were warmly welcomed and impressed about the Interieur of the house. It was spotless clean and and the kitchen had everything needed. We would love to come back.

Despite the mixed weather this summer we had a very pleasant weeks' stay at the Le Cleret gite. We were greeted pleasantly by Andre & Michele and given the tour of the lovely space before helping the kids decide which mezzanine rooms the boys & the girls were sharing. The adults of each family had rooms at either end of the gite. The house itself is connected to the end of the main property where Andre & Michele live. This week we were lucky enough to not have anyone staying in the Chateau itself so had the grounds and the pool all to ourselves. This turned out to be a good thing as the kids (and adults alike) went mad for the lovely cool water which is deep enough to dive into. The property is up a lovely tree-lined drive and has 2 hectares of vines growing around it. A lovely tree-shaded area creates the main outdoor section for the gite and there is a lovely view from the ha-ha looking south towards the river (although you can't quite see it). We were encouraged to use the grounds as our own and they were lovely to stroll around. The gite itself is a wonderful space. I celebrated my 50th birthday in it's cavernous recesses! A lovely long table in the main area presents itself as the centre of most activities but there's a satellite TV with UK channels in a large lounge area if needs be. Wifi was also good enough for streaming services. The 5 toilets were more than enough for our group! Both parents rooms had lovely en suites. Morning routines include a short drive, or for some of us a relaxing jog, to the local services in the pretty and sleepy Sainte Foye La Grande just along the main road or river bank (market Saturdays). Canoeing is just a stroll away across the road to the river and is highly recommended. Really the only criticism would be that the rooms were a little hot without air conditioning as we chose to keep windows closed to stave off mosquitoes but otherwise our stay was faultless. I do wonder what it would have been like with tenants/owners in the chateau... We can definitely recommend the gite at Chateau Le Cleret even if it is a little bit further west from all the main attractions of the Dordogne.
