We had a fantastic holiday in the beautiful house with the large swimming pool. The house was very clean and fully equipped. The children had a great time with the tennis table and in the swimming pool.
It is a beautiful and peaceful area!
Thank you very much!
We stayed for a week and had an incredible time.
The area is very quiet and quaint, perfect for walks around the surrounding areas or just relaxing by the pool. On-site barbecue was great as we used the every evening. Rooms were cool, clean and had everything we needed. The kids enjoyed themselves immensely and I couldnât thank Julie enough for being so accommodating, especially with the addition of the inflatables!
House is a short drive away from the village if Duras which has plenty of day and night markets. Julie was a font of knowledge on when and what to do! Lovely host and I would thoroughly recommend her!
Set in the small commune of Sainte-Colombe-de-Duras with a charming Roman church just across the road whoâs chimes gently awoke us in the morning - This characterful countryside property has everything you need! By far itâs best feature (for us) was the fantastically sized swimming pool which we spent most of our relaxing time around. Beautiful views across the fields as you take a refreshing dip and let your cares melt away!
The location is ideal for 5 mins drive to Duras which has a Chateau, markets, artizanales and bars/restaurants.
For the oenophiles I would certainly recommend a visit to Saint-Ămilion which was an easy 30-40 mins drive - amazing place - just get there very early to avoid the search for parking!
Thanks Julie and Chris - We had a smashing week in the sunshine!
Lovely clean property exactly as described in an area we know well. Julie was a great host and made us very welcome. We had a great 2 weeks here and plan on returning.
Het huis is zeer goed uitgerust, ook benodigdheden zoals zeep, vaatwastabletten, handdoeken en dergelijke zijn meer dan genoeg aanwezig.
De eigenaars wonen ernaast, maar respecteren ten volle de privacy van de gasten.
Heel aangenaam zwembad (overal 1.40m diep).
This property is just the place you need if you want quiet and relaxation . It is adequately furnished , for all your culinary needs . The only thing it is missing is a place near by to get your fresh bread from , but we stocked up every time we went to the local mini supermarket about a 10 minute drive away in Duras . The outside furniture could do with a bit of a refurb , but on the whole it was very pleasant to sit outside at night and listen to all the different birds and the church bells and eat the grapes off the vine on your patio . Don't forget your mosquito repellent! They were certainly active whilst we were there the last 2 weeks of September, also it was harvest time as well , so lots of flies etc .
We would like to thank Julie and Chris for helping us out at the end of the holiday as well , super , kind people .
Heerlijke en ruime woning. Keuken goed voorzien, mooie veranda om âs avonds te zitten. Zwembad (10x5 i.p.v. 12x6) heeft prachtig uitzicht en een mooi aangelegde tuin.
Omgeving mooi en stil, alleen een rustig doorgaand weggetje langs de veranda.
De bedbank mag geen naam hebben, daar kun je niet op slapen. Bij temperaturen boven de 30 graden waarbij het âs nachts niet goed afkoelt wordt het op de slaapkamers onaangenaam warm. Geen airco aanwezig, dus slapen gaat slecht. De bedden zijn erg smal. Geen horren of klamboe aanwezig, dus zelf maatregelen nemen is een must.
De eigenaren zijn vriendelijk maar zoeken verder geen contact.
Perfect getaway in very relaxing and peaceful village with beautiful pool and views
Beautiful old and authentic house with beautiful swimming pool and great games room. We spent a week at Sainte-Colombe-de-Duras, two families (4 adults and 4 children). Fantastic accommodating hosts and lovely place to base yourself to explore the local area. All of us loved the swimming pool and games room. Enjoyed having barbeque at the front terrace, kids loved running around as there was plenty of room to play. Kitchen has everything you need. It was useful to have washing machine as we came with kids. If you are looking for calm, peacefull and relaxing holiday, it's the perfect place to be :) Thanks to Julie and Chris.
We have spent the last 17 years living and working in France. Buying and renovating properties in various areas. We fell for the charm and location of our current property and feel it is an ideal place for a special holiday. We look forward to welcoming you.
we love the tranquil location and the friendly locals. Yet Duras and Monsegur are lively little towns with lots going on. We also enjoy nature on our doorstep, walking and riding amongst the beautiful scenery and wildlife.
