Home description

The seclusion of the property also makes it naturist-friendly and therefore ideal for anyone looking for a clothing optional holiday.

The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Dordogne region
You will find us in south-west France in the north of the department of Dordogne. Situated in the Perigord-Limousin Regional Park, we are surrounded by an area of outstanding natural beauty.
The countryside is unspoilt, rural and uncrowded, mainly pasture and woodland. We have the ideal holiday climate, with warm springs and long hot summers lasting well into the autumn.

What can we say - a wonderful week in such a lovely cottage.
Fantastic. Beautiful surroundings and so very well done. Regrets is that we couldn't have spent more time here! We shall just have to come back!
A wonderful relaxing break. The gite is fantastic.
