A superb relaxing venue
A family holiday saw us rent the cottage and barn for ten nights .Accommodation was excellent ,super pool and very well equipped for families. Les Chouttes was spacious and comfortable and exceeded our expectation s.The village of Trémolat was charming and restraints , particularly the Vieux Logis were very good. Convenient for canoeing the Dordogne at Limeuil , visiting Le Buguevwuite close and seeing Sarlat at night . Our communication with the owner and as excellent as she always responded very quickly. I would be happy to recommend Les Chouettes to any family and would return in the future .Finally it was excellent value for money . Thank you Karen

A lovely cottage, but beware the summer months
Overall, the property itself is beautiful. Very tastefully furnished, spacious bathrooms, pretty outdoor landscaping, nice pool area, etc. See the pictures. The reason I couldn't give this property a higher rating is because the upstairs bedrooms are not truly air conditioned as described in HomeAway in the way that most people would describe it (the owner pointed to the heat wave underway when we arrived, but the conditions on the second floor never really improved to the point that we could sleep there). There was one fairly small portable unit in the larger bedroom, which was reading 30 degrees Celsius when we arrived. The other bedroom was even hotter. So the first night four of us slept in the two downstairs BR's, which were tolerable with fans, but which also meant my daughter had to share a BR with her 15 yr old son. As the weather cooled a bit later in the week, it was more comfortable. But at no point did the upstairs BR's become comfortable enough to sleep in, despite the owner bringing a second unit at the end of the first week. As a result, my son and his family could not stay with us at the cottage when they arrived on 7/5 and he had to rent a hotel room nearby. And my daughter and grandson had to share a BR for the entire stay. So I paid for a four BR place that only had two usable BR's and my son incurred the cost of three nights in a hotel. If you plan to use the pool, be aware that you are in the country, so small black flies will be around the whole time. We didn't spend more than 30-45 mins in the pool as a result. Also be aware in advance of opening the house early in the morning to let in the cooler air and then shutting up around mid-morning. We learned this from Simon, the caretaker, the day after we arrived. It's a must if you want the downstairs to be comfortable. Finally, the owners were very responsive to our concerns about the AC, but their efforts were to naught.

We enjoyed a lovely stay in this beautiful cottage during some really hot weather! The downstairs bedrooms stayed lovely and cool and the air con helped upstairs. The pool was excellent and a choice of outside seating areas meant we were always able to find a shady spot and the best breeze. The kitchen was very well equipped and the lounge lovely and comfortable. Thank you Karen for letting us stay in your lovely house and your great communication and thoughtfulness while we were there.

Best Air BnB stay we have ever ever had!!
We honestly couldn't have done our trip with our Karen and Alan, they are the best hosts we have ever had! The house was gorgeous, in the most beautiful setting. The house was just perfect for us, everything we needed and more, all very clean and in amazing condition. Karen and Alan made us feel very at home and they were so welcoming. We came and stayed for a friends wedding and they couldn't have been more helpful in terms of the logistics for the wedding, travel etc. We all definitely want to come back and stay again! Definitely best Air BnB experience we have all ever had!

From the start, our host was very accommodating. She had given us loads of tips of what to do, where to eat and go in and around Tremolat. Our expectations were blown away by the tastefully designed cottage and barn. The lush amenities left us wanting for nothing and wishing that we could stay forever. We enjoyed the fully equipped kitchen most evenings and even had a barbecue on the porch under the gazebo. We cannot wait to return.

Beautiful Property
The French cottages, Les Chouettes in Tremolat is wonderful. We rented both the barn and cottage for 10 days with our extended family. Both houses are very well equipped with everything that one could need. The beds and furniture are very comfortable. Their towels are large and luxurious. There is so much to see in the Dordogne Valley from medieval cities, chateaus, and outdoor markets. We really liked the market at Issigeac. The Bistro in Tremolat is highly recommended too.

Beautiful, cosy and comfortable home in the French countryside
We had a fabulous time at Les Chouettes! This cosy, comfortable and well equipped home was absolutely perfect for our time spent in the south of France. The kitchen was perfectly equipped - meal making was an absolute pleasure. The lounge was warm and incredibly cosy, with a lovely fireplace and games for cold winter's days. Very convenient washing machine and tumble dryer, and a great supply of wood for the winter. Our bed was very comfortable with fresh, crisp linen, and the house is situated in the perfect little neighbourhood. It neighbours a number of small villages, which makes exploring the Dordogne valley incredibly easy and pleasurable. Karen was incredibly helpful, hospitable and kind, and we'd highly recommend staying at this property in Tremolat!

Well-equipped, comfortable home for 6-8 people
We have rented often in the Dordogne region and were pleasantly surprised to find a gîte that was not only very well-equipped but also beautifully furnished. We found it very comfortable for our party of 6 (including teenage children and aged parents). Being Australians visiting in December, we also appreciated the heating. A wonderful stay, thank you!

Charming, characterful and restful residence.
Our party of 4 loved the intimacy of the cottage, and the conveniences it offered. A well situated property on the outskirts of Tremolat that allowed one to enjoy the solitude and peace of the surroundings, yet with full access to all major attractions in the area. An ideal getaway for busy people that need some down time, and an opportunity to rest and relax. The is well furnished and was able to provide for all our needs to ensure a home from home experience. Our charming hostess and property owner organized 2 fantastic events with local individuals who shared with us their knowledge and skill in the art of food making and wine tasting. Thanks Karen for assisting us to make my husband's 60th birthday as memorable as it was. I am hoping that in the future we will be able to return to your beautiful part of the world and enjoy the comforts of your properties.

Holiday to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary..
The barn and the cottage. With 14 family members aged between 4 and 65 - including 3 teenagers - this was going to be interesting week. Everyone loved it. What makes this place special is SPACE. There is space to have 14 people sit down to eat in a number of different locations ....space to socialise.......and space to find a quiet area to read a book or FaceTime school friends. It is a property I would recommend and would also revisit as there is so much to do and see in this area. Both houses are furnished with quality pots pans utensils etc and there is plenty of crockery. The swimming pool is a good size and fenced off, the bicycles were used every day for the bread and croissant run and the table tennis table with the ladder competition created by Ryan provided a super communal activity for all.

Perfect cottage
We have just returned from a week staying in Les Chouettes and we could not fault it. We found Karen the owner to be very informative and helpful before we left. The cottage is perfect and well equipped with everything you can think of. Two fridge/freezers, 3 eating areas, laundry room, table tennis, bikes, pool equipment and the WiFi and sky tv were a bonus. The bakery in Tremolat is great for picking up beautiful pastries and there is a handful of other restaurants in the village. We had cars to explore and we went to some beautiful towns and villages. Could not recommend the area more and the cottage is a perfect base from which to explore.

Good sized property with lovely pool area
We stayed in the cottage which has 4 bedrooms- 2 upstairs and 2 down stairs and a bathroom on each level. The 2 bedrooms downstairs are big enough to have the double beds in but not much more room than that. One of the bedrooms upstairs is a lovely huge room with beams and air conditioning. The other is quite small with a smaller than double bed in. The stairs to get up there are very steep and would not be safe for young children without very close supervision or anyone who is a little unsteady. The weather was very hot while we were there and although there were plenty of fans available, only one or two worked so the rooms without aircon got very hot, especially the ones downstairs where we were unable to open the windows due to no instect screens. We had requested a cot to be there for our 2 year old and it wasn't set up so had to request the bedding again for this when we arrived. The wifi password hadn't been updated in the app or in the info in the cottage so was a lot of messing around when we arrived to figure it out from the packaging we found and needed it to use our phone as we travelled from Australia. The pool area was fantastic and big enough for the whole family to play and relax at the side, it is fenced off too so great for younger kids. One of the loungers was broken so unable to use. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you would need but had minimal storage for food. The table was a good focal point but we found one of the antique chairs were broken and a little dangerous. The location of the property is further than we expected from Tremolat- It is around 25-30 minutes walk, as opposed to 15! So not as easy to pop into the village as we expected. The computer games that were available mainly consisted of games which required a microphone and there wasn't one available. The other games were unsuitable for my 9 year old nephew as they were rated age 12+. Our daughter was sick and needed to go to hospital while we were there and Karen was great in helping me and arranged for Simons step son to come with us to translate! Thank you!! Karen was quick to respond to any issues we had. Overall a lovely property but needs a few things updating. It would be helpful if the photos of the cottage and the barn would be seperate on the listing so it is very clear which photos belong to which property. The barn is recently renovated so much nicer.

Excellent house and facilities and good location. Everything provided
We had a great week but were unfortunate that there was so much work going on at barn. Did not appreciate being woken at 7.15 one morning by banging of fence posts and Garden did not feel so private with people working immediately next to us on several days. Overall this did not spoil our holiday and I would recommend it to others
