We spent September ‘24 in Benoit’s beautiful house along with our dog. It had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. The house was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Benoit was always available to help or advise if needed. There was great walking routes in the area and plenty to see and do but the pool area was so relaxing that you were tempted to just stay there!

(08-2024) Dear,

We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. Peace, quiet, beautiful views, everything you wanted was there. I didn't really find any points for improvement. We have never found such a clean house on holiday. We didn't even come across a spider or spider web, and there is usually nothing you can do about that. The contact with the owner also went well. There were even towels for the pool, the beds were made. Everything was certainly in order. We didn't really take photos of the house.

I also forwarded the following message to the owner:

Hello Benoit, the holiday went very well. Everything was very clean and in order. Many can take an example from this. The made beds, towels for inside and outside were also a real plus. The children loved the swimming pool. We left completely relaxed and rested. We will definitely recommend the house to others and maybe we will come back ourselves.

Kind regards,

Christoff and family

We had a fantastic stay in this unique holiday home.

We stayed there with 2 families, both with young children. The annex, which contains 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, ensured that we still had a lot of privacy.

The house is very neat and equipped with everything! Books, games, towels for the pool, .. The homeowners have thought of everything. The swimming pool with a view of the valley provides the necessary refreshment and is perfectly maintained, just like the rest of the house. We have no negative points to make about this house and its owners.

We would love to come back!

(10-2023) Dear Mrs. Mennes,

Astrid and I had a wonderful stay. The place, the hostess and gentleman, the house and the surroundings were great. We enjoyed. Facilities in and around the house were perfect. Mrs and Mr Lecoste have taken care of everything neatly. And they were very satisfied with the completion and interim cleaning of the house and swimming pool. We lacked nothing. And your advice to choose Decouverte was completely justified.

Thank you,

Jur

(07-2023) Dear Lydia,

We had a perfect stay!

Both in Val da Pia and in La Découverte, everything went well, beautiful, cozy and quiet houses.

The swimming pool in La Découverte (30°) was a bit warmer than Val Da Pia (28°), definitely ok!

Both very friendly owners who received us well.

thank you!

Kind regards,

(06-2023) Hi Lydia,

We had a nice holiday. The house was in one word fantastic, everything very complete and very clean. The owner is very nice he was not there when we arrived due to his brother's funeral I believe. The lady who received us was also very nice and spoke very good English. We will definitely rent again through france villa.

Then it will be the third time for us.

Regards, Tony and Thea

(05-2023) Good morning Lydia,

It was an unforgettable holiday. We had booked this week with an underlying thought, for us and the 2 daughters. And has brought everything (and even more) than what we expected. If there was a point of criticism, it was that the house was so nice, that staying 'home' was sometimes more attractive than a trip.

Our thanks are sincere that we were allowed to rent this beautiful house, at this cost. Otherwise it would have really been at the limits of our budget.

Besides the thoughtful bottle of wine, some beers, soft drinks and ice cubes in the fridge, it was a very clean house. Nice to start your holiday like this.

I will scroll through our many holiday photos of La Découverte this weekend, and send you the e.e.a.

Yours sincerely,

Ron

We enjoyed 3 weeks of rest in "La Decouverte". The house is beautiful, the sunsets are amazing.

We have been to France many times and have rarely had such a well appointed and clean home. The sea of space was lovely, tastefully decorated too.

Veronique and Benoit have pulled out all the stops to make the stay enjoyable. Respect and compliments for this. Everything has really been thought of! We would like to recommend the house to everyone.

Thank you.

Wow! We stayed for a week at Decouverte in August 2022 and it really was the most spectacular location. The villa itself was extremely well-equipped, with all the pots, pans, utensils and kitchen gadgets that you could ever need, and the gas barbecue on the patio was a breeze to cook on! The rooms were lovely; we only really used the main house, but the extra little annexe was also beautiful and would be perfect if holidaying with another couple or more grown up kids.

Communication from Lydia at France Villa was brilliant, she answered all our questions and took the time to talk with us on the telephone (in English) and advise us about the different villas available. The owners of the property were equally helpful and gave us our own space, but we knew they were on the end of the phone to ask questions and would have been nearby if we needed them (we didn’t, everything was great) as they live in a nearby town.

We only had a couple of days out while we were there – we visited the incredible caves at Gouffre de Padirac (go first thing in the morning to beat the queues), the free-roaming monkeys at La Foret des Singes and the lovely town of Rocamadour, all of which were less than 45 minutes away from the villa and a very pleasant drive through the Dordogne valley.

We didn’t spend much time out though, because the villa itself was so beautiful we just wanted to stay there! The stars of the show for us were the incredible pool on the patio, where you could practically reach out and touch the phenomenal view, and the veranda on the other side of the house where you could sit and have a drink in the evening and watch the spectacular sunsets. It really was the most wonderful week away and left us longing to up sticks and move to France!

I would highly recommend booking with France Villa – so much so in fact that we have re-booked for August 2023 in a different villa that also looks amazing! Can’t wait!

(08-2022) Dear Lydia,

We would like to compliment the owners for their fantastic holiday home where we enjoyed staying for a week at the beginning of July. Benoit and Veronique helped us get better WIFI and they are very nice and humble. We think the house is great in terms of location and comfort and had a great week. I wish them many neat guests in their home and warm greetings.

France Villa is honest with pictures and information, the house is rather even more beautiful in real life.

Sincerely,
Tineke (in France Christine) and Lucas

(08-2022) Dear Lydia,

We spent two wonderful weeks in Decouverte. We met the new owners, Veronique and Benoit, and talked to them about our experiences.
To start with, we found the house super clean. The equipment is also very complete, both the kitchen and the rest. It is nice that the house is not 'full' with belongings of the owner. That often makes a messy and dusty impression. The owners have yet to get to know the house well and plan to live there for a few weeks after the season. A lot of work has already been done in a relatively short period of time. Ground floor sanded and treated, upstairs new windows / frames etc. They will continue with that. They also go downstairs and replace the windows. The pool was lovely. Not big but we cooling. We have had two very warm weeks and we were pleasantly surprised that the water remains so nice and cold.

All in all we had a wonderful two weeks. From the house you can also make beautiful walks.

Thanks again for the good organization and information and for returning the deposit.

Best regards and maybe until next time!

(06-2022) Dear Lydia,

We had a great stay in house Decouverte. A lovely spacious house with a beautiful view. Plenty of space and it was wonderful to sit around and in the pool. So we got what was promised.

We were the first guests since the takeover. The new owners have provided a very warm welcome, so we couldn't have done better. In the period before our arrival, they worked hard to get the house in order. They deserve a compliment.

Sincerely,
Gerard and Anneke

(10-2021) Dear Lydia and Thijs,
We enjoyed our vacation in Decouverte. A lovely quiet location, where you could hear the tawny owls calling in the evening.
The beautiful surroundings offer ample opportunity for fun day trips. There are also good restaurants nearby. With the perfect BBQ on the veranda you can end a sunny day with a nice meal.

Kind regards and see you again next year,
Tineke and Dirk

(08-2016) Dear Lydia,

Thank you for your email. We very much enjoyed our stay at Decouverte. The house is lovely and the setting overlooking the valley just beautiful. Sunset every evening was amazing, even the stormy one! The rooms were very comfortable and the pool a good size, but we were puzzled by the instruction not to use any sun creams or oils. Having stayed in a number of villas with pools in different countries we have never come across this before, but did obey it.

When we arrived Sara had very kindly got the shopping for us and we were very grateful for that. She is very kind. We noted that the sun umbrella had a spoke broken, which meant it didn't open properly and so only one person could sit under it, and that the BBQ had a hole in it. We lined this foil so no ash fell through.
It is a lovely house.

I hope this helps.
Kind regards
Rosemary

(08-2013) Dear Lydia Mennes,

We have just returned from a wonderful holiday at your property Decouverte. Thank you for all your administrative help and route directions. The property is in a beautiful area and the children (young and old) enjoyed the pool very much. We had a dramatic storm one evening but otherwise sunshine from morning ‘til night, and, OH! those sunsets.

We all agreed that we had a fantastic time in a beautiful peaceful area.

With best wishes
Celia P.
