Wonderful Country Farmhouse
This is a charming, up to date gite in an ideal location, 3 km from Eymet, a wonderful small village in Dordogne. It is hard to get a sense of just how peaceful the location is from the photos, but we greatly enjoyed our stay. Michael and Donna were great hosts. I only wish we could have stayed longer than the 6 nights we were there.

This lovely Gite is very close to Eymet and Lauzun and all essential amenities. Which was perfect for us. Donna & Michael were most welcoming.

Lovely peaceful location
We really enjoyed our stay here. Donna and Michael were very welcoming and recommended places/restaurants to visit and were always available if needed. However, they also respected our privacy. The gite is very clean, spacious and beautifully furnished. Breakfast on the decking watching the red kites over the trees and the heron passing over every day was wonderful. We feel the gite would benefit from improved access rather than having to park a vehicle and then walk down a grassy slope and in front of their home. However, this wasn't a major problem and no doubt will be addressed at a future date. We would recommend this gite in the countryside to anyone seeking a relaxing and peaceful break.

Superb property and holiday experience
Everything about our stay was wonderful. The property is very well presented - clean, comfortable and everything that you could need (and more) is provided, along with some very well chosen pieces of furniture, art and adornments. Quiet location with views over countryside. Short distance to the picturesque village of Eymet for shops and restaurants (and supermarket) - less than 5 minutes by car. The hosts Donna and Michael are warm and welcoming and able to provide local knowledge if needed but also respectful of the privacy of their guests. Hope to be going back when we have an opportunity. This is a gem!

This place is an amazing gem! I liked it so much I extended my stay by two days. The hosts were friendly, helpful, and excited to have me there. They have a lovely hike around their property, and I got to see some exciting (but safe) wildlife. Eymet is VERY close-by with MANY high-quality restaurants. ...All this, and I haven't even really talked about the property yet...stunning, modern, spacious. Comfy living room, cozy bedroom, large bathroom (shower and tub), and a fully appointed kitchen, relaxing porch. It was an easy drive to several nearby towns and made a good home base for longer trips to Sarlat and Lascaux. Stay here to relax!

Great Stay!
La Porcherie is a beautiful little house behind the owners' place. It has all the charm of a stone cottage, with high end furnishings such as leather sofas, TV with English/French channels, a fantastic and comfortable mattress, as well as a Louis XVII armoire. Spacious modern bathroom and shower, efficient kitchen. Set in the quiet countryside with fantastic peaceful views and lots of great walks/hikes, including fields, woods, and a lake. The hosts, Donna and Michael, are extremely personable and helpful for anything you need to ask. We had a great time visiting with them and their dog Maisie. Close to the town of Eymet with its medieval square where there are always restaurants open and a great market day. PS lots of English speakers in this area so you have your choice of speaking French or English. The area includes lots of villages and wineries worth exploring, and great restaurants from pizza to fine dining. We will definitely be coming back!

We must say that we had a great stay in Montguyard, location top, weather top, accommodation top. We visited the villages around ( not over run by guys like us), biked de gpx routes provided by the owner and also had excellent meals in the restaurants around. The gite is very comfortable (cool) and fully equipped. We were of the first ones to stay there. You got all you need in a 4 km radius. So yes we enjoyed our time there. Rik
