Excellent Family Stay!
Kim made our booking very easy and took the time to check in with us prior to and during our stay. Any problems were resolved quickly and we couldn’t have asked for more. The property provided us with hours of fun. The pool was perfect and the golf course was an added bonus. There was also many extra facilities, such as table tennis, boules, archery to keep our teens busy. The location of the gite allowed us to visit local lakes, caves and beautiful towns (including the night market at Monflanquin and Eymet). We really have had a wonderful stay!! Thank you Kim and Russ

Great property that has everything you need to relax and chill for two weeks, bonus features are the outside pool kitchen, driving range and large enclosed garden for those of you with pets. Kim the owner was great, she lives next door if you have any issues but is always out of sight.

A gem found in the Lot et Garonne
Kim and Russ met us on arrival to show us around the property. They left a welcome hamper with some essentials (bread, milk eggs etc) but there was coffee, tea and many other things there which helped us on our first day and we received a delivery of freshly picked potatoes during our stay. The house was on one level with 3 bedrooms, a living room, dining area, kitchen with all you need for your stay, two toilets and two showers, one bath. All we maintained really well and the whole place was homely and clean. The garden was a lovely space to sit out in with amazing views of surrounding fields. You can listen to the cow bells in the evening from the patio. The pool was at the bottom of the garden with many inflatable toys to choose from. The boys particularly enjoyed playing pool volleyball! There is a golf putting area to use too with clubs and balls to use as needed. Kim lives in the house next door (separated by a high hedge so both properties remain private) which was very handy if we had any questions but at the same time non-intrusive. Both owners were very approachable and helpful to us during our stay. I would have no hesitation in recommending this to all my friends and family. It is a fantastic place to stay, great value for money and a perfect size for our family of 5. Many thanks to Kim and Russ for their hospitality and kindness.

more amazing than we could have dreamed!
How lucky were we to have found this gem!! After we gave the new owners a right scare by making an instant booking overnight, they still had the place more than ready upon our arrival! Kim and Russ were beyond perfect hosts. We received the most warm welcome that included a well-stocked basket of provisions so that we (tired parents after a long car ride) didn't have to travel to the grocery store until the following day, fresh water and kibble for our dog, and even a small toy for our baby!! It was also a delight to find a wine rack stocked with options for purchase ;) After we had the chance to get settled, we actually spent the rest of the evening getting to know our lovely hosts, as they live next door. We honestly felt like long-lost friends and by the end of the evening even like family. It is truly evident that taking care of people is Kim's passion and it definitely shows in her hospitality. She also takes pride in ensuring the cleanliness of the property and safety of her guests, especially during this challenging era of the Covid-19 virus. The property itself is breathtaking - SO much space and views of the countryside as far as the eye can see. Our dog was in heaven running free (and maybe even chasing the neighbor cows along the fence once or twice haha). The pool is an absolute oasis - and how nice it was that the owners opened it up for us and ensured it was clean every morning. It is heated so enjoyable any time of day (or night!) - we even were leant a "lie low" (aka pool float) to lounge on ;) We made excellent use of the outdoor kitchen - the home is beyond stocked with anything you need for meal service. The home itself is meticulously decorated (the baby thoroughly enjoyed himself looking at everything). Top-notch appliances and we were extra grateful for use of the air-conditioning, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. The master bed was SO comfortable and Kim also had the most beautiful crib ready for our babe! As our stay was rather short, we didn't have a chance to appreciate the golf, but anyone that is a fan is in for a real treat! Seriously where else can you find a rental and hosts like this?! We only wish we had more time to spend here...but we would (and plan to) visit again in a heartbeat!!

Loved our stay, didn't want to leave
The property was well equipped, beds were really comfortable. The pool was a big hit with kids & grandparents alike. We made good use of the outdoor kitchen & BBQ. The gardens were amazing, so much space to walk, run, cycle & of course have a go at golf. Loved the views in every direction. Maurice was very friendly & welcoming, we could not fault him. He was on hand next door if we needed him. Equally he left us to our own devices which suited us. He entertained us all at his property one evening & his cocktails & curry were 1st class! My 7 year old must have said a dozen times - it was the best curry ever! There were lots of sad faces on the day we had to check out.

Fabulous property and owner, great location, highly recommend for a chilled, relaxing holiday.
Due to a faulty plane we were around three hours late arriving so the shops were closed. This was not a problem however as I sent a text to the owner, Maurice, to inform him we were held up and he very kindly did a shop for us and stocked up with milk, bread, ham, croissants, tomatoes, fruit, eggs, beer and wine so our holiday could truly begin on arrival. The property has everything you need and more for a home-from-home getaway. It is very clean, the beds are extremely comfortable and the outside areas don't disappoint either. The pool is lovely and the added bonus of the summer kitchen, complete with kettle, fridge, BBQ, cutlery and crockery means you can kick back and stay there all day without having to go into the house - fabulous! Maurice, the owner, is an absolute star - nothing is too much trouble. He is respectful of your privacy and extremely helpful if you need anything. We asked about rail travel to Bordeaux and he went to the local railway station for us and found out all the details - prices, times etc. We were invited to his home one evening where he cooked a fabulous meal of roast lamb and we laughed and chatted with him until late into the night. A wonderful host who genuinely loves what he does and cares that his guests have the best time on their holidays. We could not fault this property, the owner or the location and if you are looking for a complete chill-out then this is the holiday for you.

Everything you need for a great holiday in France
A brilliant place to stay in a wonderful area of France. The house has everything you need, excellently equipped, well furnished and decorated with good Wifi and internet facility. Beautiful and fully secured gardens with the best heated pool we've had in our stays in France. The property really benefits from the poolside kitchen. Supermarkets 10min drive from the property with lots of small villages around. The owner Maurice, could not have been more helpful, welcoming and friendly. A true gentleman - You must ensure you take the time to share a glass or two of wine with him! We look forward to staying here again and seeing Maurice again next year! Don't hesitate, book now!

Peace, relaxation and conviviality
This is a great house, artfully decorated and with pretty much everything you need. The heated pool was most welcome as was the a/c in the house. Loved having the sonos system too, nice touch. Enjoyed the poolside kitchen with gas BBQ and fridge etc. plus the sun-loungers were really comfortable. All well thought through. Loved the area, so beautiful. The location of the house is quiet and peaceful and yet close to amenities. The highlight is Maurice; I was on my own the first three days and my host could not have been better company, a nicer man you could not wish to meet. (We will get to that restaurant one day!). Thank you.

Property was superb, more than we could have hoped for.Made to feel so welcome
We had a fabulous stay in Maurices property. From the minute we arrived he went out of his way to ensure we always had everything we needed. He checked out activities we were interested in like finding us details and making contact with a rowing club approx 20 minutes away so our son was able to have a row with the club. He invited us to dinner one night which was thoroughly enjoyable. The facilities available at the property were such that we had everything we could have needed in both the house and the poolhouse. Pool was kept clean for us and the driving range was an unusual but very enjoyable distraction for all of us. I would have no hesitation in recommending Maurice and his property to anyone interested in holidaying in that region of France

An impressive holiday home with everything you could want to hand
From the moment we arrived at La Borde Haute, I knew we'd made a good decision. We had the most relaxing holiday and this was partly down to the fact that the house is so well organised and has everything you could wish for. We were blessed with good weather. Whilst holidaying at the peak time, the heat can sometimes be a little hot, however we lucked out this year with beautiful sunshine but low humidity which made for very pleasant days by the pool. The pool, what can I say, is perfect. Heated and super clean. Whilst if you want to swim lengths, it may not be perfect, if it's lying on a lilo or just playing around it genuinely is perfect. We soon learnt that the Summer Kitchen is the place to use the fridge as it is a bit of a trek (not far but you know what I mean) when you want something from the main kitchen. We found ourselves splitting the shopping between the main and summer kitchen fridges, making life super easy. This way everything was to hand. Good shopping locally. We found the Leclerc in Tonneins had a good meat and fish counters however there are obviously all the local producers. The living room and bedrooms are comfy with a good standard of furniture/linen etc. Three toilets to pick from! We couldn't fault anything at all. (There's a loo and shower by the pool!) The gardens are secure and spacious with plenty to do around the house including of course, the golf. Never before have we stayed somewhere which has it's own pitch and putt and driving range. Clubs and loads of balls on site ready for you to use. If I was going to be super fussy, and this is fussy, the electric summer kitchen door and gate had a mind of it's own but other than causing a bit of a laugh, if you have young children, all you have to do is watch to make sure the gate is closed etc, not difficult. A short, uphill walk to the village for a baguette and croissant and this started every day in the way we like it. I admit we didn't really tour the area but this is because we know the area pretty well, so was a conscious decision. Why spend time driving around when you have the perfect home, pool and golf to keep you busy! As for Maurice, he was and is the perfect host. He'd do anything for you and is very proud of what he has created. He wishes for people to have a great time and will do everything in his power to make sure you do. Highly recommended and we will return.

Breathtaking and relaxing.
The house was very well equipt, we did not need to rush out to purchase anything on the first day, which meant our holiday could begin immediately. The owner is very kind, polite, respectful and always happy to help to make your holiday the best! We were fully relaxed and our daughters really enjoyed the heated swimming pool and we all enjoyed the golf as a family. The views are breathtaking, only being disturbed by some donkeys in the next field...amazing! Overall this holiday was a fantastic opportunity for my husband, twin daughters and myself to relax and really enjoy some quality family time.

We had a brilliant holiday in this fantastic villa in the countryside, Maurice , the owner , did everything possible to ensure our stay was problem free and enjoyable and although he lives next door he respected our privacy whilst still being available if needed. The villa is located in a very peaceful area and we had a thoroughly relaxing stay.

What a lovely house Kim and Russel have in the Lot. They live next door, so if there is any problem (none!), any question (little) or any complain (none!), you can reach them anytime. The house has everthing you want (need) for a great holiday. Swimmingpool, large secluded garden and private driving range all outside.

Great place for a family vacation and a lovely host
We rented the property for two weeks and it's safe to say we had a great time. We lived outdoors most of the time and had our dinners at the pool. The pool house is well equipped and the BBQ was used very frequently. Maurice, the host and owner was very helpful and although he stayed at the nearby village was always at hand to give us advise or tips. We can very much recommend a stay at this place and we already miss the great views and the refreshing dives in the pool!
