Lovely ancient Périgord house in La Roque-Gageac, close to Sarlat

Located in Roque-Gageac, "prettiest village of France", the Lithodora house overlooks the valley of the Dordogne, opposite the castle of Castelnaud. This renovated farmhouse dating back to 1800 has two bodies and offers an exceptional quality lodging thanks to its direct environment (secured swimming pool, stunning view, 3876m2 of grounds) and to the surrounding area. It is indeed close to Sarlat, the Lascaux caves, the manor and the gardens of Eyrignac, the Eyzies, etc. And of course there are the world renowned gastronomy (foie gras, duck breast, pommes sarladaises – potatoes in the Sarlat fashion...) and the famous regional wines. You can also go down the Dordogne River in a boat or in a kayak, or even fly over the Black Périgord in an air-balloon...

Wonderful stay in a beautiful location
We loved the stay and we all enjoyed the location. Everyone was really helpful when we had any questions and the house was really lovely and we’ll suited to a large family group having separate bedroom areas each with their own bathroom facilities. The pool was great and the outdoor seating area was lovely for morning coffee and evening meals alike. The dark sky views were excellent here so too was the view of the balloons going overhead on a morning and evening. A fabulous holiday!

Wonderful Holiday
We booked this holiday a long while ago and have looked forward to it ever since and everything about the house exceeded our expectations. The house itself was beautiful and very well kept as was the swimming pool. The lady who met us on arrival, Fanny, was fantastic and made the check-in and check-out process really easy. Our party consisted of us two, our 4 adult children and 2 (under2 year old) grandchildren and the house suited all of us. Ideally situated close to La Roque-Gageac, Sarlat and various other attractions. We had a wonderful time, a holiday we will remember forever

Spacious, Rustic and a Delight
The site accurately describes a spacious, rustic and comfortable home in a forest setting. Ideal for a large group the home very comfortably accommodates 9 persons or in our case four adults and two great grandchildren. The pool area is a great asset and was enjoyed by all as was the outdoor BBQ and dining area. The house was very clean and Alain very helpful on our arrival. We were just a few minutes drive from essential shopping and major attractions. A lovely house in a beautiful setting. We would recommend this home for a comfortable stay with a group.

Super house overlooking Dordogne valley
We are a family of 5 and stayed 2 weeks. The house and particularly the garden and pool are wonderful. We had a relaxing time enjoying the pool and using the BBQ virtually every night. It was wonderful to have a drink a play boules in the gardens as hot air balloons flew over. There is some much to do nearby. We went canoeing twice, hired mountain bikes, visited Lascaux and the local chateaus as well as several trips into Sarlat-la-Canéda which is beautiful and vibrant. We would certainly return to Lithodora in the future

Great place for a family holiday
This home called Lithodora is a most charming country home in a quiet and secluded location. It was the perfect accommodation for our family of 5 adults and 3 grandchildren. The air conditioned bedrooms kept everyone comfortable in spite of the heat wave being experienced while we were there. The beautiful pool was a welcome retreat at the end of hot days of touring the beautiful villages, chateaux and the numerous unique sites of the area. The location gives easy access to so many of these. The house is a longer distance up the hill behind La Roque Gageac than we expected, to far for a casual walk to town for supplies and fresh pastries in the morning, especially in the heat of July. However, it is only a short drive to Sarlat where everything you may need is available. The house was well-equipped and if you needed anything, the property manager Alain was quick to respond. It was nice to be welcomed with a bottle of local Rose. The only surprise was to arrive and find that clean bed sheets were provided and folded on the bed but we had to make up all the beds ourselves. We have never had to do this before in rented houses or apartments. Everyone in our family has a fond memory of the wonderful week spent together at Lithodora. Thanks from all of us.

A fantastic week away with children
We have just returned from a fabulous week at Lithodora. The house is truly beautiful and, being only four of us, we didn't fill it by any stretch but the sense of space is amazing and it would suit multiple families or generations really well. The pool is a really good size with a 2m deep end and was much appreciated because the heat during our stay. As was the air conditioning in three of the bedrooms. The whole area is beautiful and there is so much to do. We visited markets, canoed on the river, visited Baynac chateau and lazed by the pool. We couldn't have asked for more and very much hope to return in the future.

What a beautiful house in a beautiful setting! Perfect for a large family group.
We have returned from a lovely week in Lithodora. The house was lovely with rustic charm and the kids loved the pool. The property is in walking distance to the village but only for those without any difficulties in mobility as the climb back up was quite steep. Beautiful area with lots of things to do. There are restaurants and gift shops in the village but we did find we had to drive out for groceries as there was not a bakers or grocery shop in walking distance. We visited Castelnaud, Sarlat and canoeing down the Dordogne, all highly recommended. This was our fourth trip to the area and we would definately consider Lithodora on our next one! Thank you for a lovely stay and to Alain for trying so hard with his English!

Most wonderful hidden gem.
We have just returned from 2weeks at Lithodora.... pure heaven! We are a family of 6, including a child of 2. This beautiful house offered us everything we needed plus so much more. We were met by the lovely Alain. He could not have been more welcoming and helpful and was on hand every day( via phone) if we had any problems. The house itself was huge, so much space and very large bedrooms. It was equipped with everything we needed plus lots of extras. Outside, the grounds were huge with beautiful views across the valley. We ate all our meals outside under a lovely shaded pergola and enjoyed many meals cooked on the large gas barbecue provided. The swimming pool was a great size and set in a beautiful area above the house,again with stunning views. There really is so much about this property that we loved, I cannot possibly cover it all! I cannot recommend it highly enough. Thank you Hubert and Janine for letting us stay in your wonderful home (and for our bottle of rose chilling in the fridge) but special thanks to Alain for really looking after us!

séjour la Roque Gageac
Cette jolie maison périgourdine un peu atypique (deux maisons rassemblée en une) bénéficie d'un très bon emplacement dans le Périgord noir. La piscine est agréable et la climatisation dans les chambres du haut est appréciable par forte chaleur. A noter : le jardin n'est pas situé au niveau des pièces de vie principales (il est en contrebas), ce qui fait que nous n'en avons pas profité lors de notre séjour.

Tres belle demeure dans un ecrin de verdure. Sans le moindre vis a vis-à-vis et loin des archétypes des locations aseptisées. Pleine de charme cette belle maison offre des prestations de qualite, favorisant une certaine independance, par la conception du jardin, l emplacement de la piscine et la distribution des chambres. Une situation exceptionnelle permettant la decouverte du Périgord Noir. Nois avons apprécié, les echanges avec le propriétaire et l accueil tres sympathique de Fanny responsable de la réception. Nous espérons pouvoir louer a nouveau cette propriété magnifique.

Au centre de nombreux sites historiques, à proximité de merveilles naturelles, dans l'eau pour se rafraîchir en cette période caniculaire et entouré de spécialités culinaires qui font les lettres de noblesse au Périgord, Lithodora nous a permis de passer de merveilleuses vacances. Les espaces sont idéaux pour vivre à 2 familles en permettant des moments conviviaux tout en ayant l'intimité nécessaire. Séjour ressourçant!!!

Ideal, um mit einer Gruppe/Familie an der Dordogne einen Erholungs- und Kultururlaub zu machen!
Eine sehr schönes und stilvoll ansprechendes Feriendomizil! An dem sehr gepflegtem Garten sieht man, dass die Eigentümer Gartenfreunde sind! Sehr ruhige Lage im Wald, daher im September abends etwas feucht (man muss halt tagsüber lüften) , aber den ganzen Tag über genügend Sonneneinstrahlung und ausreichend Schattenplätze, wenn die Hitze zu gross wird! Ausreichend Schlafzimmer, Toiletten und Duschmöglichkeiten auch für eine große Familie! Sehr schöner Pool mit tollem Weitblick! Ein sehr feundlicher, sympatischer Verwalter kümmert sich um den Pool und eventuelle Probleme und sorgt für einen reibungslosen check-in und check-out! Eine freundliche Begrüßungskarte der Eigentümer sowie eine gekühlte Flasche Rosé sind uns sehr positiv aufgefallen! Im großen, gemütlichen Wohnzimmer ein guter TV mit sogar deutschen Programmen (für eventuelle Regentage) ! Super Gas-Grill an einer sonnengeschützten Terrasse! Ausreichend Parkplatz für mehrere Autos ist vorhanden! Viele Rückzugsmöglichkeiten in gemütlichen Zimmern und auf diversen Terrassen! Alles in Allem: wir haben uns super wohl gefühlt und werden diese Haus sicher noch einmal mieten! Christoph u. Miriam

Superbe et authentique
Nous avons séjourné à deux familles. Les caractéristiques décrites sont en tout point exact à la réalité. Nous avons même été agreablement surpris par les prestations. Nous avions tout le nécessaire. Pour 9 personnes ,les commodités sont en conséquence. Enfants, ados et adultes ont apprécié la piscine spacieuse et pour les amoureux de bronzette et de lecture , ses abords sont propices à la detente. Concernant la situation géographique, la Roque Gageac, permet d'être proche de tous les centres d'intérêt du Perigord Noir, et à 10mn de la magnifique cité médiévale de Sarlat. Bref , nous connaissions déjà la Roque Gageac, et cette demeure familiale nous a permis de passer un excellent sejour avec nos amis. Nous esperons y retourner dans les annees à venir. Derniere chose.. non négligeable, la personne s'occupant de l'intendance de la demeure est même passée en milieu de semaine pour nettoyer la piscine. Vous l'aurez compris rien n'est laissé au hasard pour rendre votre sejour genial. Merci !!!!!

L’emplacement est idéal pour être au calme, le village juste en dessous est magnifique, l’extérieur de la maison un petit paradis. La piscine est très agréable et grande (et bien sécurisée).

Wunderbare Ferien an der Dordogne
Wir hatten zwei wunderbare Wochen. Das Haus lag für uns perfekt. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter verlief reibungslos und der Service vor Ort durch Allain war klasse. Es ist ein Haus in der Natur (also muss man auch mal mit einigen wenigen Ameisen oder einer Spinne rechnen). Wir würden immer wieder hinfahren.
