House in the country, but minutes from Sarlat, enclosed garden, pool & WIFI

A nice cottage, detached, in a quiet neighbourhood. Although the home interior is somewhat dated, everything is there. The garden is huge with a nice pool. The porch is really lovely. There is a playground for children. Even bikes are available. Sights are nearby (Sarlat, Rocamadour, Beynac, Domme). The owners are very friendly and helpful. We really had a good time here!

Really lovely properly with lovely owners who gave us a lovely welcome and send off. The house is lovely with an Overground pool, table tennis table, lilos. Secure garden and Satalite TV. Everything was there and all thought about if we needed anything. Perfect location for sarlat and beynac and the other beautiful towns in the area. 10 minute drive to sarlat and a huge supermarket. Pizzaria within 5 minutes walking distance. Lovely walks for the dog from the cottage. Highley recommeded we had a really lovely stay after waiting so long to return to the Dordogne after Covid so pleased we finally got back, thank you so much.

Paula and Barry were wonderful hosts, from answering questions we had before even booking, up until check out. The house is a perfect base for exploring the local area. The garden was brilliant for the kids and the pool was thoroughly enjoyed by all. So many extra bits and bobs in the house were provided which made life so much easier on arrival. Highly recommend the Pizzeria a 5 minute walk down the road. We wouldn’t hesitate to return to Le Pouget!

The house and garden were the max! I could live there. The beds were made up, there were towels, toilet paper, EVERYTHING. Randy and Paula are very friendly and made us feel at home. Nearby Sarlat le Canéda is very lovely. I highly recommend this place!

We loved the cottage. Nice kitchen en living room. The garden is fantastic, especially because our two dogs could play all day round (the place is fenched). Very nice hosts, very friendly!

The property was well-located bearing in mind our planned activities: visiting (Rocamadour, Domme and Chateau de Castelnaud), swimming (Quercyland), and canoeing (35km from Calviac-en-Périgord to Beynac-et-Cazenac). The small swimming pool at the property was great for cooling off the kids (and adults) at the end of hot days in the sun. There was a good selection of garden equipment for the kids (swings, slides, bikes, table-tennis, etc), and garden furniture (including BBQ) for relaxing in the evenings. The provision of UK satellite TV was helpful in terms of entertaining the children. The property was quiet and peaceful, set within beautiful countryside, although near enough to Sarlat to enable quick visits to the shops (e.g. the E. Leclerc hypermarché). The property looked a little more tired in terms of decoration than it had done in the promotional photographs, but that is often the case and everything was actually clean and functional. The gite's friendly and helpful owners welcomed us warmly on our arrival, and were willing to respond to any questions or concerns that we had during the week. That was reassuring. Overall, we had a really enjoyable week.

We loved the location; completely private yet close enough to Sarlat to enjoy an evening out eating in one of the many restaurants. There is so much to see and do around the area; canoeing, chateaux, beautiful villages and of course a homely, tranquil environment to return to after a day's excursions. The weather was exceptionally hot during our stay so the pool was a very welcome element of our holiday!

Le Pouget is exactly as advertised with absolutely no disappointments.The garden is obviously the biggest draw and lives up to all expectation. Although it would appeal to people bringing children, we found it to be perfect for a couple looking for a an ideal spot to explore from during the day as well as being only 15 mins. drive into Sarlat in the evening.We went after 6pm and parking avail. was excellent.No little time spent enjoying a few glasses of wine in the garden,either! The added bonus of the E.Leclerc supermarket 10 mins down the road is that you can access their free WiFi should you need to.Paula & Barry could not be more welcoming.Places easily reached from here are Rocamadour ( stunning, but stop in car-park on hill opposite for fabulous aspect / photo )Beynac & La Roque-Gageac ( for enjoyable boat trip ). Domme is where you get the best view of the river valley and it's well worth it.Excellent location and many thanks to our lovely hosts!

Our first impression was oh no it is cold and miserable, but the second day the sun came out and we had a wonderful relaxing time in the garden and the location for going out and about was great. Secluded and quiet, took our two small dogs and they loved it. Paula and Barry could not have been more welcoming/helpful. Lots of tiny thoughtful touches in the property. We didn't have children with us, but they would have been well catered for if we had. We have already booked to return in 2017. Superb restaurant nearby too.

We found Le Pouget was perfect ! An ideal place to unwind, set in a spacious garden with plenty of seating areas and really well equipped and thought out. The extras like cool box, flask and bikes all helped to make our stay complete. The situation is ideal for exploring the Dordogne, so much to see and do and we were blessed with wonderful weather ! Paula and Barry are great hosts ! We hope to return again next year !
