About the home

La Joubertie enjoys a rural location but has all the mod cons you need for a comfortable and relaxing holiday. We pride ourselves on our high standards and the gite is tastefully decorated and well-equipped to meet your holiday needs. We really feel that we have the best of both worlds here - located in the heart of the Dordogne, we have the wide open spaces and fresh air of a countryside setting but you are within easy reach of all the major tourist attractions and towns. After the hustle and bustle of being out and about you can come back here and enjoy the pool and the comfort of your gite.

Relax over a glass of wine on your own private patio while you overlook the pool and enjoy our spacious surroundings. You may even spot a deer or two grazing on our parkland or later in the year, trying to scrump our apples! There are also plenty of walks around our property for those of you who like a bit of exercise!

We have had so many repeat visitors that we know we have something special that is also good value for money. Why not try us out for yourselves? We are sure that you will not be disappointed!

The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Dordogne region

There is so much to see and do in the Dordogne as it is steeped in history. See our website for lots of information on all the places to visit. Outlined below are a few ideas just to whet your appetite!

Sport
Golf courses (10 mins and 30 mins away), fishing (10 mins away) in the local “etangs” or on the rivers is plentiful and horse riding, canoeing and go-karting etc are available locally.

Food & Drink
There are lots of restaurants to choose from and we are right on the doorstep of the famous Bergerac wine region and well within reach of Bordeaux and St Emillion.

And don’t forget the wonderful French market experience! Lots of the local towns have markets on different days each week with opportunities to taste the local produce and wine.

Places of Interest
The historical towns of Perigueux (the capital of Perigord), Sarlat and Domme are easily reached from here also with loads of restaurants, shops and markets to browse around.

Les Eyzies, Rouffignac and Montignac (world famous caves of Lascaux) offer a fantastic opportunity to explore pre-history through caves, prehistoric sites and museums.

Chateaux and beautiful gardens abound – you’ll be spoilt for choice!

We have lots of information and brochures to share with you.

The Vergt area

Our nearest village is Lacropte (2kms) with a Bar Tabac/Restaurant where you can also get bread/croissants.

The market town of Vergt is 8kms from La Joubertie, less than a 10 minute drive away. The local market is on Friday which is so typical of French life selling a variety of local fresh produce and delicacies. Vergt also has 2 supermarkets plus a variety of other local shops specialising in regional produce.

Vergt is renowned as the strawberry centre of the Dordogne and has an annual strawberry fair in May which celebrates the strawberry and is a great way to witness the cultural life of the region.

There are also several restaurants in and around Vergt and there is a fishing/swimming lake only 10 mins away at Lac de Neufont which also has a swimming beach and bar/restaurant. Golf courses are within easy reach - Marterie Golf course (10 mins) and Perigueux Golf Club (30 mins).

“Wonderfully quiet” We have been to la Joubertie 3 years in a row, we love the peacefull location of the property. The Gite is very clean , comfortable and a good base to explore the surrounding area. My daughter loves to play in the swimming pool and we can sit on the patio and watch. Marian and Len are helpfull and fiendly and on occasions have booked things on our behalf as our french is poor. We couldnt recomend it highly enough. Andy and Family

“A total gem in the Dordogne, stunning, relaxing and calm” This was the second time we had been back to La Joubertie and again we had a fantastic two weeks. The grandparents also came for the second week and booked the flexi-gite which they loved. We have two children under 3 and this place is totally child friendly, no stone steps, plenty of space to run around, very safe pool etc. You can just open the door and they can play outside safely. The gites are spotless and very well equipped, BBQ facilities, very clean pool (if a little chilly) and very friendly and helpful owners. The only downside with kids is that there is no washing machine. The location is away from the tourist traps of the Dordogne but easy drives to some great days out. The town closest (Vergt) is a lovely french town with a great market, supermarket and great cafe etc. I can not rate this place more highly, in fact we have booked to go back next year!!! Response: Although there is not a washing machine in the gites, the use of a washing machine is available, by arrangement. Alternatively, if guests prefer to do their own washing, there is a laundrette in Vergt.
