Domaine de la Forge

Major changes and terrible place

Reviewed By oliverwooburn

This is the 4th year that we go to this place, but this year the place has changed dramatically. We arrived on Saturday, and used the pool using our shorts, all fine. Sunday same all fine. Monday we are stopped when entering the pool area by a very abrupt 20 year old supervisor, asking me if i have my swimming trunks or speedos under my shorts, so i said no, she then refuse to allow me to swim as i have not following the rules. So all other sudden the place has new swimming rules , i asked to speak to the Manager who eventually showed up and basically i am wrong and she is right, apparently this is a common rule in France, so at the end we had the follow their rules but it gets even better. Some people still swim in shorts but the staff cant be bothered to police the people. the entertaining team swim in the pool with their shorts !!!! and to add to this the entertaining team did a game where people had to swim with a dress on from one side to the other in pool. Entertainment was shockingly bad, now that Loic has left and the food was terrible, toilets were so dirty So i am afraid we wont be returning to this place and my advise to management and staff, if you apply a new rule then inform the customers and don't just pick some random days that suits, and apply the rules to everyone. As for the 20 year old supervisor then learn how to respect customers and spend less timing doing your nails and concentrate on supervising the pool area. Avoid the place

Wonderfully relaxing escape to the country. Lovely juxtaposition of a wooden cabin in a rural area with modern fittings, e.g. Bluetooth speakers and hot tub at every cabin! The host is very friendly and will show you around; there's everything you need for a night or a week. Will stay again.

Maisons La Boissiere

Perched high on a hillside overlooking the Dordogne River, Maisons La Boissiere is home to three charming, period self-catering gites. Each cottage is completely separate and has its own private garden. All are close to our fenced and alarmed 16m x 5m swimming pool that has an additional shallow pool for children. La Boulangerie, a perfect private hideaway for two with its own garden, La Vieille Grange, sleeps up to 7, ideal for families, private garden and stunning views over the valley below and La Maison Perigordine, a period newly renovated six bed Gite ideal for families or a group of friends. Each of the 3 cottages are completely independent and have their own private gardens. All are close to our fenced and alarmed 16m x 6m swimming pool that has an additional shallow pool for children. (Opens early May) Each Gite is within easy reach of many of the historic Bastide towns of The Dordogne (such as Monpazier, Domme and Belves) local shops, restaurants and a myriad of activities.

A wonderful stay

Reviewed By D_Naomi

We have just enjoyed a wonderfully warm and sunny week at Maisons La Boissiere. Stuart and Tish were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The first food shop and home cooked first night meal was most welcome after our long drive. The swimming pool was fantastic; a great size, very clean and surprisingly warm for this time of year. Lovely sun loungers too. The gite was charming and the little extras such as pool towels, bikes and BBQ really added to the holiday. The views from the terrace were so beautiful; ideal for enjoying alfresco dining and a glass of wine. Situated in a great location - easy to explore the region with lots of great places to visit within a 20-30 minute drive. A truly memorable holiday, made all the better by the lovely hosts, Stuart and Tish!

A lovely week in a special place

Reviewed By chloecI5966HQ

We absolutely loved our stay at Cournet Haut. Fanny and Alan have created such a relaxing, peaceful and tranquil place. Our kids loved the freedom to explore the grounds and spent many happy hours splashing in the pool and bouncing on the trampoline with friends. We stayed in Le Charme and loved the peace and quiet of the surrounding forest. We’re already thinking about next year!

Faysselle Holiday Cottages

Three holiday cottages - "Gites" to rent set in 12 acres of idyllic countryside in the Lot-et-Garonne region of South West France. The hamlet of Faysselle dates back to 1809 and our three gites have been thoughtfully and carefully restored from the old farm buildings. There are little hints around the cottages of their former role, with the remains of the old cow byres, metal rings for tying up the cattle, and a stone sink still apparent. There are also magnificent beams which are hundreds of years old and exposed stone walls. Soleil Levant has two bedrooms, sleeps 4, with one bathroom. Soleil Couchant has three bedrooms, sleeps 6, with two bathrooms. Grand Soleil has three bedrooms, sleeps 7, with two bathrooms. Each gite is very well equipped with TV, satellite, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave and WiFi. There is also a games room and bicycles. We aim to provide quality holiday accommodation for our guests, and we hope you will find your stay comfortable and stress-free.

Perfect holiday retreat

Reviewed By Jane D

Faysselle has been our holiday destination of choice for a number of years now. This year it did not disappoint. Warm and friendly welcome from the new owners Claire and Guy. Our gite Levant was lovely, and equipped with everything we would need for our stay - lots of extras too that you do not always expect to be provided. The pool and grounds are beautiful and formed a perfect and peaceful escape from working life.

Inconsistent accomodation and awful customer service received from Siblu

Reviewed By clairewG7657SL

Whilst the site has a lot of plus points we were really disappointed with the accomodation. We paid additional to have what was meant to be the best accomodation as did our friends who we travelled with. We paid the same and booked at the same time yet the difference in accomodation was like chalk and cheese. They should have equal facilities but that was not the case. Despite writing to customer services 4 times since returning I have had no acknowledge ment. I have travelled to France every year for the past 13 years and can honestly say this year's accomodation was the worst. Very little space around caravans and lack of privacy we went in to Le Bois Maison and the grounds around the homes was even worse. Piled on top of each other absolute no privacy rusty old tables and chairs dumped at back of caravans. Awful! Given the lack of customer service and awful accomodation in both sites I will never use Siblu again!

Beautiful Hotel

Reviewed By andrewpG8081NW

A truly stunning hotel, beautifully decorated and stylish. Wonderful rooms and communal areas. Lovely evening meal with well cooked local regional dishes and accompanying Bio wine list. The local area was new to us but there are lovely local villages in the local hilly region.
