Chalet with private pool overlooking meadow and woodland

Situated in a small and quiet hamlet in the north of the Dordogne area, this modern wooden chalet has been stylishly fitted out and furnished by the current owner, who lives in the house nearby.
Sleeping up to four people, in two bedrooms, a cot and high chair are also available if required.

Please note: for the months of July and August, reservations are made weekly (Saturday to Saturday).

The chalet has its own private swimming pool surrounded by a large terrace, ideal for al fresco dining. A range of garden furniture and deck chairs with a barbecue are available. Steps lead from the terrace to a small children's play area, washing line and outdoor area. From the garden, you will have access to a large private meadow which leads towards the woods.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a cooker, oven, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and fridge/freezer. The living room offers a comfortable sofa, a TV with DVD player, and free WiFi.

The small hamlet is surrounded by forest and this is where you are likely to see deer or wild boar as they tend to emerge from the woodland very early in the morning or in the evening twilight. Chickens and ducks in a separate garden area are all securely contained in their respective enclosures, and prove to be of great interest to younger guests.

In the heart of the Dordogne, the small village of Vaunac is located just 10 minutes by car from the town of Thiviers, where you will find all the department stores as well as several restaurants and a cinema.
In the center of the village of Vaunac there is the renowned restaurant : La Sobronade.
The village of Négrondes, just a few minutes by car or bike, offers a bakery as well as a few restaurants.

An ideal location to discover the pleasures of the Périgord region!

The Périgord region offers quality tourist attractions: castles, caves, picturesque villages, water park, canoeing, golfing, hiking, horse riding... You can explore the neighboring towns and villages, such as Limoges, Périgueux, Brantôme, Saint-Jean-de-Côle and the martyr village of Oradour-sur-Glane, all less than an hour's drive.

A lovely chalet in a very peaceful area
We spent a lovely week in Cath's chalet. It was very comfortable and almost a home from home. We were very grateful for the generous welcome pack as we had been travelling all day and arrived quite late. Very thoughtful of Cath. She is a lovely host and nothing was too much trouble. We bought binoculars as we had read in the reviews that you could watch the deer in the nearby fields and we weren't dissappointed. We had many sightings of them. The area is lovely but you do need a car to travel to places. We would recommend Brantome and the canoeing there, St Jean de Cole, beautiful village, and Perigeuex. We went to the restuarant down the road in the village for lunch that was recommended in the reviews and it is amazing value but you do need to be hungry as the portions very generous! We hope to one day.

Lovely chalet in beautiful location with a fabulous host
We stayed for 6 days in Cath's chalet. It is undoubtedly the best equipped place we have stayed (and we have stayed in many!) as well as being spotlessly clean. Cath provided a very generous and thoughtful welcome pack of groceries to help us settle in and there was no shortage of cleaning products, condiments etc, which just made everything much easier. We had some lovely cycle rides in the area, exploring nearby attractions (caves at Villar, the town of Thiviers, St Jean de Cole etc). We hired bikes from Dordogne Cycles, who delivered and collected, along with helmets and locks - perfect! Views from the chalet are lovely, with wild deer appearing on a regular basis. Very relaxing and peaceful days and stunning starry skies at night as we were well away from light pollution. Would definitely recommend this place. Huge thanks to Cath for her help and hospitality. She is both professional and friendly and really made our stay comfortable and enjoyable.

A tranquil get away in the beautiful Dordogne
We spent two tranquil, sunny weeks in Le Chalet. Greeted with a generous welcome pack and spotless accommodation we knew we were in for a totally relaxing holiday. The village and setting are beautiful with surrounding woodland to explore. The facilities at Le Chalet are super. We enjoyed lazy days by the pool, relaxing evenings barbecuing as well as visits in the local area. Cath was a great host - there when needed for advice but also leaving us to relax and recharge. Cath ensured everything is clean and refreshes linen and towels each week. Cath made a prompt return of the security deposit after leaving the accommodation in the same high standard of cleanliness we found it in. We will definitely be visiting again.

Les vacances parfaites.
Nous avons passé 2 semaines inoubliables dans cette location parfaite dans laquelle il ne manque absolument rien. Le chalet est très propre, fonctionnel et climatisé. Les propriétaires sont très gentils et disponibles, le calme et la nature sont au rendez-vous et la région est sublime. L’accueil dans le chalet est simplement incroyable. La piscine privative est ce que l'on peut rêver de mieux pour des vacances idéales. Un grand merci à Cath pour sa gentillesse son accueil et sa confiture. Nous y retournerons avec un immense plaisir.

Difficile de donner une impression puisque tout était parfait. Propriétaire accueillante (malgré notre arrivée trop tôt), discrète, donnant des conseils et s'inquiètant de notre bien être. Châlet très agréable, propre. Tout y est. La vue, la piscine, la terrasse, le linge de maison, ...tout, je vous écris. La situation est aussi très agréable. Joli coin, sans être super/trop touristique. Quelques villes à ne pas manquer, évidemment (St Jean de Cole, Brantome,..). Kayak à proximité. Je recommande chaleureusement et remercie encore notre hôtesse parfaite.

Très bien, court séjour, mais Cath la propriétaire est toujours aussi accueillante. Gîtes parfait.
Nous étions là pour 3 nuits, mais tout était bien. Tout confort, très bien chauffé, malgré les -3 degrés enregistré la nuit. Cela fait 2 fois que nous louons chez Cath en hiver. Nous allons peut-être essayer l'été prochain.

Sehr schöne, gut gelegene Unterkunft
Wir haben einige sehr schöne Tage in dem Chalet von Cath verbracht. Wir waren zu zweit mit Baby unterwegs und haben die Ferienwohnung sehr kurzfristig gebucht. Die Abwicklung und Kommunikation war unkompliziert und problemlos. Cath hat uns netterweise auch ein Babybett hergerichtet, obwohl wir vergessen hatten danach zu fragen. Das Ferienhaus liegt idyllisch am Waldrand und freistehend. Es ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet und super ausgestattet, vor allem die Küche. Gefallen hat uns auch das wir bei der Ankunft Verpflegung für den ersten Abend und den nächsten Morgen von Cath bekamen, besonders erwähnenswert die selbstgemachte Pâté. Alles in allem lässt sich sagen: eine sehr nette und unkomplizierte Gastgeberin und eine hervorragende, empfehlenswerte Unterkunft.
