Villa Nature is in a peaceful countryside location but within walking distance of local shops including a bakers and a bar. It is also an easy drive into Lalinde which has a great market on Thursday and lots of shops. The property is very well equipped and the pool is refreshing after a day exploring the countryside around.

Quiet Hideaway close to attractions
You can't go wrong staying here. We were 2 couples and were very comfortable. The owner, Chris had taken great care in making sure that all the ameniities are there. We did most of our own cooking. Shopping was close by. The salt water pool was welcome during the 30C+ temps. Our hosts Chris and Patrick, who live nearby on the property, were extremely helpful and went beyond the norm to make sure we had everything we needed, as well as providing recommendations on local places to visit. We would love to return!

Beautiful, immaculate property set in a peaceful rural location with the added bonus of a pool. Lalinde was an ideal base with lots of amazing places nearby to explore. Chris and Patrick were great hosts, taking the time to tell us about the area over a glass of wine. Would definitely recommend.... we didn't want to leave!

Tranquil but not too remote
A Tastefully and sympathetically renovated old cottage, offering good accommodation, and certainly big enough for our group of four, With two bedrooms each with their own bathroom, a kitchen/diner and good sized living room , both with period features. The property is reasonably well equipped, including a dishwasher and washing machine and a variety of kitchen bits/utensils. The kitchen area was fairly compact, but as I don’t go on holiday to create gourmet masterpieces, it was not a problem! A 30 minute round walk to the boulangerie made a good start to every day - perfect for keen croissant consumers. Chris was extremely helpful throughout the process, and gave us plenty of tips and ideas for places to visit, of which there are a great deal especially if you like old châteaux, Many of which are suitable for family visits. All in all, we can recommend! 😁

A great stay with a lot to see and enjoy
We spent two lovely weeks at Villa Nature in Lalinde. The house is perfect to make family vacation. You can visit a lot of interesting things nearby that area - castels, chateaus, old stone villages, beautiful gardens, impressive cliffs and caves and of course interesting local markets. Chris will be very helpfull for recommendations and at the end you will miss several of the topics so that you have to come back ;-). And if you need some recreation from sightseeing you can use the pool with a beautifull view or you can take a walk around the property. We enjoyed a canoe trip on Verzere, too. Chris and Patrick: thanks for beeing your guests - we can highly recommend a stay in Villa nature.

La villa a été refaite tout récemment et décorée avec goût, on s'y sent très bien. Cadre également idéal pour se reposer en pleine nature. Superbe piscine et tout le matériel nécessaire pour profiter de l'extérieur. Nous recommandons vivement cette location !

This house is amazing. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Enough room for a family of 4. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a lovely dinner. The garden has sunny and shady spots to eat outside. The saltwater pool feels extremely luxurious and has an amazing view. It was so nice here that we spent quite a bit of time around the house: by pool, reading in the garden, walking to the village to buy some fresh bread or pastries.... Chris the host also has a lot of tips for fun things to do in the vicinity, absolutely great!

SEJOUR PARFAIT
Trés content d'avoir inauguré la Villa Nature en famille. Elle porte bien son nom et tout était réuni pour passer un excellent séjour. Chris et Patrick sont trés accueillants, super dispo mais discrets quand même ! Maison au calme mais à proximité de tout. Trés bien équipée, bien aménagée , décorée avec goût et dans un environnement idéal pour se ressourcer! Une semaine avec nos jumeaux de 5 ans parfaite en tous points. La proximité des différents sites de la Dordogne est un plus trés appréciable (surtout quand on a les bonnes explications de Chris ;) qui a trés bien cerné nos attentes! ) N'oublions pas la piscine, superbe et sans chlore ... même la petite marche de mise en jambe pour s'y rendre était un plaisir ! Nous conseillons vivement ce logement et pourquoi pas y refaire un séjour dans le futur car une semaine ne suffit pas pour explorer et profiter de toutes les richesses alentours.
