Idyllic Four Days in perfect setting

Everything about Les Papillons is thoughtful, beautiful and comfortable - the house gardens pool are really well set up & managed - the owners are very helpful but unobtrusive - the facilities are great, even down a little shop which saved us going out to buy wine after our long journey - cheers! Can’t fault anything and can’t wait to return!

Lovely gite and great location

We really enjoyed our stay at this gite. The gite itself was lovely and had everything needed, whilst the site in general had a lovely pool and stuff to keep my son entertained. Ben was extremely helpful and friendly, including taking us kayaking. The location is great, close to numerous nice towns and attractions. Would recommend La Chalet for a good meal and swim in the river. Would certainly recommend this place to family and friends and we are likely to visit again

Lovely setting; peaceful and relaxing but with the opportunity to be very active if you want to!

A very pretty gite, gardens and surrounding area with friendly owners who ensure your holiday gives you the best opportunities to really enjoy the area. The garden and pool offer lots of space and the fields and campfire area keep the children delighted! A short walk takes you into Domme, where the walk around the town and the cave visit provide an interesting morning or afternoon. The gite is extremely well placed to explore the surrounding area.

Best holiday ever!

5 of 5 stars This was the first time we had stayed in Domme and were not disappointed. The gite was a beautiful little holiday home for myself, husband and two children aged 6 and 9. There was plenty for us to do when we were not exploring the local area. We all loved the pool, the children loved the trampoline, play area and hammock! The view from the gite is just spectacular and it's so peaceful. Ben and Maria were very friendly - they work very hard to ensure you have the perfect holiday. We would love to visit again soon.

Super endroit mais...

Sur l'annonce il n'est pas stipulé que le gîte est mitoyen de la maison des propriétaires et aussi qu'il existe sur la propriété deux autres gîtes qui partagent la piscine (effectivement c'est un "espace partagé"). Ceci dit les autres locataires ainsi que le propriétaire étaient très sympathiques mais...

Domme review

Everything was great, Ben, Ian and.Carol were very helpful and friendly and the gite had everything you wish to have with a great pool area. Walking into Domme could be physically challenging to some but the rewards are worth it. Very small quibbles are could have new towels and a stand for the toilet rolls.

Great family holiday

Lovely place in a tranquil location with pool which our teenagers loved. The local village Domme is one of the most beautiful in the region too. The gite itself is very well equipped, comfy beds and loads of space to relax. Ben, the host, was on call whenever you needed it too.

A week was to short

The gite was full of character and very clean and well equipped. It sits in a great location in beautiful countryside but easy distance to Domme and other local attractions. We loved the extra touches like the little shop with the honesty box and being able to hire a canoe and be dropped off/picked up by Ben. I’m sure we’ll be back.

Beautiful cottage!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful gite! The host is fantastic, very easy to communicate with, and very helpful. The property is quiet, quaint and in the gorgeous country side. The gite has the utmost charm both inside and out. The beds were super comfortable, and we had every amenity one could need. The woodburning stove was so wonderful and cozy. There are so many beautiful attractions near this property. We were sad to leave, and vowed that we must come back to stay again when we have more time to enjoy the gite and the surrounding area with all the beauty it has to offer.
