À propos de cet hĂ©bergement

Un havre de tranquillité.

Notre ferme se trouve au sommet d'une colline, au milieu des champs et des bois, vue merveilleuse sous un ciel immense. C'est un logement agrĂ©able, confortable, tout Ă©quipĂ©. Le balcon couvert, la cour et le jardin sont parfaits pour se reposer et se divertir. La piscine octogonale de 5 m est entourĂ©e d'une terrasse en bois d'oĂč la vue est magnifique. L'histoire est au rendez-vous dans la campagne environnante, qui offre aussi de nombreuses possibilitĂ©s de loisir : canotage sur la Dronne, tennis et Ă©quitation. Si vous recherchez un endroit calme et tranquille, La Crois est pour vous. Nous souhaitons garder l'atmosphĂšre paisible de La Croix et apprĂ©cions de recevoir des hĂŽtes ayant les mĂȘmes goĂ»ts, non fumeurs de prĂ©fĂ©rence.

En bas, le grand sĂ©jour/salon/salle Ă  manger, comporte un coin cuisine et le poĂȘle Ă  une extrĂ©mitĂ©, et ouvre sur un vaste balcon couvert avec coin repas. Si le temps le permet, il est Ă©galement possible de dormir dehors sur le balcon : en plus des canapĂ©s-lits dans les chambres, il y en a un sur le balcon. Vous apprĂ©cierez de vous reposer dans les chaises longues ou de jouer aux boules. Plus bas dans le jardin, la piscine et sa terrasse en bois vous permettront de vous rafraĂźchir ou de prendre des bains de soleil, tout en admirant la vue.

Le hameau et les environs: La Croix est un petit hameau paisible en Dordogne, au sein du PĂ©rigord Vert. La rĂ©gion est bien connue pour ses antiquitĂ©s, son art, son architecture romane et bien sĂ»r sa gastronomie.

Tranquil stay

We had a fantastic stay at the property. It is very well equipped and beautifully furnished. It is in a very quiet location and the pool has incredible views across the countryside. It is in short driving distance of a small town that has a well stocked spar, bank, boulangerie and a couple of restaurants. We would highly recommend and definitely stay again.

A house with a VIEW

Our stay in the Dordogne was again a very relaxed one. The property was OK, all "modern" facilities were available in a charming setting. The Dordogne is still one of the most beautifull area's in France: the little picturesque villages, the nice wheater, the good food, ... What really made this stay special : the fantastic view !!!

Vacation in the Dordogne

We found a dreamlike house in this quiet place and felt very comfortable there. It is a very lovingly furnished domicile, where it is wonderful to relax. The charming surrounding villages also invite to be visited. So, unfortunately, the week went by much too quickly.

Beautiful location exceptional attention to detail

We had a lovely stay.A great place to go if you want total relaxation in a scenic location.A car is essential and there are a lot of narrow lanes so take out the extra car insurance offered at the car rental pick-up. The facilities at the farmhouse were exceptional and the attention to detail was the same. You won't be disappointed.

Relaxing stay in the countryside

We had a lovely stay at La Croix, a peaceful and well kept base to explore the local area. The house provides everything you need to rest and relax, inside and out. The veranda was a fantastic place to have our meals, with a fantastic view and space for the whole family, rain or shine. The pool provided a place to cool down after a day out exploring and has amazing views and the children loved the table tennis table. The local villages have nice restaurants (Verteillac and Bourdeilles and Brantîme were our highlights) and the local supermarkets have everything you need. I would say there are less ‘big’ attractions nearby for our children who are 8-10 but they love exploring the countryside and we managed to fit in Accro-branche, mini golf and a corn-field maze locally which was great. Thank you!

French countryside location at it's best.

The ideal property and surroundings for an utterly relaxing, peaceful holiday experience. The property has all mod cons in a rustic and comfortable environment. And the outside space(s) allow for an outdoor living experience from dawn till dusk. We enjoyed the countryside, the village feel of Verteillac and the many villages discovered by bike. Ideally located for sightseeing - trips to Brantome, St Emillion and Aubeterre-sur-Dronne. We've enjoyed the best and most relaxing holiday and can wholeheartedly recommend this property and location to anyone wanting to get away from the daily stresses of life.

Relaxing

The day we arrived at the venue right away it looked idyllic and beautiful. The magnificent vue and the silent surroundings. Inside everything is there. All the kitchenware is present even the coffee ;). Outside it looks like an old rural house, but inside its decorated of this time. We also visited the surrounding villages, it’s really worth it. After the visit the pool is great to relax and cool down. With all the corona violence it's nice to recover. This has been a perfect house to recharge our batteries again. We recommend this house and surroundings to everyone and it is definitely worth coming back.

Perfect 'get away from it all' holiday destination!

If you want a holiday that is as far removed as possible from the fast pace of every day life, this has to be it. Equally, if you want to see a 'real' piece of genuine France, this is it. The accommodation is first class and equipped above and beyond what you normally get in a holiday property. It did feel like a home from home. The location is perfect. You can genuinely live like a 'local' and the view (and the changing skies and sunsets) are breathtaking. We really wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property to family and friends and would definitely consider going back for a return stay which is something we rarely choose to do. If anything, the website doesn't do it justice - it's even better than these amazing images show. If you do decide to book La Croix we hope you have just as brilliant a time as we did. The perfect escape from the real world for a fortnight!

The Photos don't do this place justice!

This is our first time booking something on vrbo so didn't really know what to expect but it was a very good experience. When we were arrived at the house at La Croix it was just perfect for what we wanted after a busy week at eurocamp. The photos do not do this place a justice at all, it is very spacious with a lot of charm and nice little extra like the ping-pong table that my son and I loved. The place is very well equipped for everything you need and it's not too far to the spar or a Boulangerie. The beds are very comfortable and the air con in the house was very welcome when it was hot. The open air eating area was lovely for breakfast but where this place really shines is the pool area surrounded by the sunflowers which bloomed during our stay. This made for a perfect birthday for my wife which was during our stay at la croix. Helen and her husband were both very nice and welcoming to us. Also when staying at this house make sure you give a wave to Madame Thomas who lives next door who will give you a massive smile and wave as you pass. The place is very rural and not effected by noise or light pollution which is great when a storm rolls in! We would definitely stay here again and I have already recommended it to friends. Thank you to all for a great stay. From the O'Leary family.

My partner and I stayed for a second time at La Croix. It is such an ideal property if you're looking for peace, quiet, and really impressive sunsets. The house was clean and tidy again and Helen was responsive and so helpful in the check in/check out process. The days were full of sun by the pool and the evenings were full of local Bordeaux wine - we will definitely be back!

Fantastic property

This is a lovely property. Helen the host helped with any question before and during our stay. The kitchen is well equipped with nice equipment and crockery. Certainly better than the usual rental kitchen. The location is very rural with hardly any passing traffic in the day. The pool is a great sun trap and gets the sun all day until the sun goes down. The views are just awesome and the photos on the site don’t do the these or the property justice really. There is a shooting and archery outfit a few km away which is fun for a few hours and local Boulangeries make great pastries and breads, but go in the morning or the good stuff will have gone! There is lots of leisure equipment also like table tennis, bbq, darts, bikes and boules ready to use in the property. We had a lovely relaxing week and really do recommend this place if you want a scenic, quiet piece of France to escape to.

Great remote relaxing stay

Lovely property at the top of a hill in a very quiet area. The views are as good as they look in the pics. Very clean and great set up with everything you need, incliding some nice surprises like things for the pool and boule ready for you. The main living space is great and the kitchen is very well set up with everything you need for cooking (which is rare in rentals like this). The quirks of the property are highlighted in the description - it's got low ceilings upstairs, and the shower is underneath the main lviing area. Location is isolated but only 10 mins drive to bakery/grocery/restaurants. Overall we rate this place really highly and would stay again.

Even though the weather was not as usual (no 30°))we enjoyed our stay at La Croix. We enjoyed the pool, the view, the birds, sunflowers, the old lady nextdoor, the covered terrace, walks , badminton, jeu de boules, calmness, ...A place to recommend if you want to relax at the countryside. One small negative point : the house had probably not been rented for a long time so it smelled a bit humid. But at the end of our stay it was already better.

Rural france recharge

We spent 2 weeks at this great property with all the mod-cons necessary for a break from the busy world. The 1m deep pool was perfect for cooling off and provided great entertainment for our son. The views from the house, garden & pool are as listed and offer great sun set views a night sky star gazing. The covered balcony is a great feature for outside eating or simply sharing a glass of wine while watching the sun set. The area under the walnut tree is great for outside dining while taking some shade from the sun & catching the cooling breeze that runs up towards to property. Helen was very helpful with local suggestions during our stay. She was very focused on providing a comfortable stay. Not to detract from the property, there are 2 areas for consideration: - 1. The low ceilings on the 3rd floor are indeed low, so you must be prepared for a fair bit of crouching, especially those reaching 6ft. - 2. The portable Aircon unit covers the main kitchen/salon area only. Bedrooms are supplied with fans and so light sleepers may be disturbed by fan noise. We had a great time with our 8yr old son and returned home feeling refreshed and recharged. A beautiful property in an equally beautiful rural setting.

A pretty house with a pool in beautiful French countryside

Three of us recently stayed at la Croix and found it to be ideal. We wanted somewhere in the middle of the countryside for a week of doing very little: we got just that. The house itself has a great layout. There's a big kitchen/dining/living room (with an air-con unit) and really nice additional dining/sofa area outside, where we ate every evening. The two bedrooms upstairs are absolutely fine in terms of size but headroom is limited as they're in the eaves. There is one bathroom upstairs. There is also a separate WC and shower on the ground floor level accessible from the outside of the house (from the courtyard). Since the weather was so nice, we spent very little time in-doors. The outdoor space is the real winner. There's a courtyard with a bbq and lawns down to the pool, which overlooks an uninterrupted view of the French countryside. We spent most (almost all) our time on the deck by the pool and had a large amount of rosé whilst watching the sunset. Helen, the liaison between guests and the owners, was so friendly and made everything incredibly easy. The house is set close to some very picturesque villages, to which we took the bikes one day. All in all, it was a fantastic place for what we wanted. The photos do it little justice. We would certainly like to return!

The property was exactly what you would want from a French country cottage - so full of character

The cottage/gite, the location, the views, the contents/equipment just perfect. Yes so the ceilings are a bit low upstairs but we never bumped our heads once. Made good use of pool, boules and kitchen. So much more that we just never had time for. Helen, the lovely property manager, gave us a quick visit to ensure we'd settled in and to reassure us she was available at all times should we need her. So many lovely villages to explore, Brantome, Aubeterre-sur-Dronne - Verteillac, the nearest, was handy for butchers, patisserie and small supermarket as well as a couple of cafe/bars and bank. The 'brocante' held in Verteillac on the first Sunday of the month is well worth a visit. Overall we can't praise the cottage and location enough - desperate to go back.
