Even in September, this house - with of course a beautiful late summer - can only lead to one conclusion: a prime location. Literally and figuratively. Literally, because it is located on top of a hill (250 meters high). This means you have sun all day long. While the house offers a natural shade on all sides if it gets too hot. We greatly enjoyed the holiday. The house is finished. You notice and feel that a lot of love and care has been put into it and that the owners do their best to keep the house clean and tidy. So it is. And everything works! Once at the house, the pool is cleaned several times a week. This is preferably done neatly when you do some shopping. There are plenty of good quality towels in the house. Washing in between is no problem, after that a practical drying rack and rotary dryer at the house ensure that the laundry is dry again in no time. Shade cloths are hung on two sides of the house. To the side, by the pool and to the back above the picnic bench. Excellent facilities, which you really need in warm weather. Please note: the cloths are of course not waterproof, they are not rain screens, they mainly provide shade. The whole looks neat and well maintained. The view all around is great. During our holiday we had a restless atmosphere for a few evenings. Phenomenal 'summer storm', only lightning at a great distance. No rain and thunder but nevertheless a more than impressive experience. Such a shining sky all around - it was great again!
This extremely quiet holiday home, where it is pitch dark and dead quiet in the evenings and at night, has excellent facilities all around. The robust picnic bench makes outdoor dining from early in the morning until late at night a matter of course. Nice loungers and loungers around the pool that you can drive in the shade where possible (the benches have wheels). The outdoor shower works fine. The pool is clean. Only open and close it yourself if you are not using it (with an automatic roller shutter). 'Belle Vue' more than lives up to its name, a "beautiful view". In sunny weather you can literally see for miles. Then we don't even mention the view of the full moon, the sunrise and the sunset. Just enjoy. A beautiful house, excellent accommodation that is clean and well maintained. Thanks to Thijs and Lydia for including this house in their careful selection of Francevilla.

Beautiful villa with a nice pool with a huge garden. Nice that there is a wide variety of accessories available, such as table tennis, football goal, basketball and a barbecue. On top of a large hill you have a beautiful view.
The beds are more than good.

(08-2022) Hi Lydia,
Thank you for your email. We enjoyed our holiday in villa Belle Vue immensely. The house was as described, both inside and out, and that was absolutely no disappointment. Beautiful pool, stunning views, and what a peace of mind! And ideally located to explore the area. Had a very nice welcome on arrival.
Greeting,

A perfect stay: a region as rich in history as its cuisine, breathtaking views, impressive calm, a very functional house, a life-saving swimming pool and owners as discreet as they are charming. To do again!

(06-2022) Dear Lydia,
It has been four years since we stayed at this villa and we are delighted to say it was even better than we remembered. An additional seating area outside was well used and the pool was in pristine condition. Madame and Monsieur Deljarry are delightful hosts keen to make the stay enjoyable - even helping when we got lost. We cannot wait to go back again.

We had a very pleasant stay in the house "Belle vue" which bears its name well! It is very well appointed and very well equipped. Very calm environment, and full of walks around which allowed us to recharge our batteries. The owners are charming and very available. It is a beautiful place where we will gladly return!
Cordially.

What a lovely place Belle Vue. The welcome was warm and everything was explained to us. Everything was there so that was very nice. Enjoyed the area all week and the weather was fantastic. We certainly hope to rent one of the other houses again.

(10-2021) Hi Lydia,
We had a fabulous time staying at Belle Vue. We had carefully chosen the villa to ensure level access for my disabled Mother in Law, downstairs bathroom and toilet, steps into the pool and private gardens. We were not disappointed, the villa was well equipped throughout with everything you could need. BBQ implements and briquettes were there, table tennis, basketball, football for the kids even a kite for the afternoon winds. If you wanted to sit outside for any meal there were a multitude of options to catch the sun. In the evening, sitting by the pool reading and enjoying a local red wine was truly relaxing.
We enjoyed discovering the local area and had a few canoe trips down the Vézère, one from Montignac to Saint leon and the other from Saint Leon to Les Eyzies. Also visiting the caves Lascaux and La Roque St. Christophe for the troglodyte caves. The kids really enjoyed discovering all the history and wandering round chateaux, avoiding the local bats! Furthermore the local restaurants in Montignac were excellent, Lou bombareau was very relaxed and sociable and catered for the kids with moules. On a rare adult only dinner Hostellerie La Roseraie didn't disappoint with excellent food. I enjoyed devouring Magret de Canard, a local specialty multiple times!
Regards, David

Fabulous stay! We were made to feel very welcome and informed on our arrival. The house is spacious and very functional. The extras that make all the difference: the swimming pool more than appreciable in scorching weather, and the panoramic and unobstructed view. We recommend with eyes closed, and will be back!

(05-2021) Dear Thijs and Lydia,

With kind regards,

We had a great stay in this superb house, comfortable, well equipped, spacious and spotless, tastefully decorated. The unobstructed view, the swimming pool and the large lot have delighted young and old. The ideal location not far from Lascaux and the castle of Losse among others, allow you to enjoy the wonders of the region. The owners are lovely, always available. We will come back.

We spent two wonderful weeks.

Everything was ok for them.
We thank you very much

(07-2020) Hello Lydia,
I wanted to share our great satisfaction with the Belle Vue house that we rented during these 10 days!
The house is indeed magnificent! What beautiful interior materials! The landscape surrounding the house is relaxing and conducive to rest! We very much appreciated the owners who, beyond their sympathy and kindness, are always ready to listen, ready to help, to share their love of the region!
In short, we will come back (the children already ask us !!) without a doubt with great joy!
Yours
Gabrielle

The standard of this holiday villa was excellent, the highest quality of equipment and the salt water pool had the most efficient and quietest filtration equipment we’ve ever had. The hosts had the villa spotless and welcomed us with homemade foie gras and wine. The location was 15 minutes out of Montignac and close to many points of interest yet it was so calm and peaceful on top of the hill we can recommend it for a truly relaxing holiday. P&D |
(09-2016) Dear,
Our stay at Belle Vue is hard to beat! What a spectacular view! The house is fully equipped. Compliments to Alain and his wife! We give a nine on all fronts!
Best regards
(09-2015) Hi Lydia,
Apologies for the late reply.
We thought Belle Vue was an amazing house, beautifully clean, the weather was not so good unfortunately!
Just one thing we would like to recommend:
As you are aware we had difficulty with the handover as the owners did not speak any English and our French was very basic. This is not the owners problem and we were embarrassed about this. But when we stayed at Poujole, the owners also did not speak much English. But they had put together a small list in English that told us basic information like:
- Where the bins were located.
- Times we had to be out of the house.
- What we needed to do with the sheets - they asked we take them off and leave in the bedroom.
- The nearest shop
- Any other info... for example at Poujole, they asked us to make sure the floors were brushed before leaving.
Also - on Saturday morning Julian went out to take the rubbish to the bins and there was some kind of shoot happening. He was warned and asked to move out of the way quickly. I'm not sure if this is a regular Saturday thing that visitors should be made aware of?
We think this would be really helpful for future guests.
We would be very happy to give a good reference for the house, if you would like to send us a link?
Thank you again for your help, we will be back in touch for future holidays.
