The Experience
Come as a six and take both floors, or just the upstairs if there’s only four of you. You enter via an external staircase which leads onto a large balcony with a dining area – lovely to eat out here admiring the gorgeous green views. Stroll down to your own pool for a dip, read on the covered terrace, cook in the outdoor kitchen or on the barbecue. There are lawns to wander, a Prunus avenue with chairs in the shade and views beyond over woodland and meadows.
On cooler days you’ll be quite happy indoors with a good selection of books, lots of games and comfy seating. White walls, lots of light and contemporary furniture give a bright, summery feel. A big island in the kitchen is the hub and you’ll find basics plus a bottle of wine waiting for you – in season you’re offered walnuts from the owners’ trees.
Bikes can be delivered to the door, yoga can be organised, you can play boules, croquet and soft archery.

We said we would be back after our stay in the gite last year, so we have just returned from a lovely two week stay with other members of our family. Neil and David welcomed us to the property with drinks and a superb welcome basket. They have maintained the gite and grounds to a very high standard. Everything is so clean and well thought out. We love the peace and quiet and this time we even saw the deer and a hoopoe! Congratulations to Neil and David for providing such a wonderful place for us to stay. We hope to be back again soon.

We have just finished a wonderful holiday with our 2 adult children and partners and everyone really loved it. The Gite is really nicely furnished and has everything you could possibly want. We loved having our own swimming pool and really enjoyed the covered BBQ area and “outside kitchen” as it offered plenty of shade from the hot sun. Neil and David are great hosts and make a huge effort to ensure everyone has a great time. The gite is set in a huge garden well away from any other properties so is really peaceful. There are 2 boulangeries within walking distance and the beautiful town of Belves, with plenty of restaurants and a weekly market, is a 5 minute drive away. Domaine de La Banne really is a brilliant place for a holiday, we will definitely be back.

Our time at David and Neil's Gite was the perfect stay being a home away from home feel. David and Neil were supportive throughout our booking and throughout our stay. The Gite itself was very welcoming and warm on arrival. We had everything we needed and the welcome drink on arrival was an excellent touch. We had changes to the accommodation which was supported and resolved for us seamlessly. Their home is beautifully laid out with all amenities, it was clean, tidy and well thought out for a seamless stay. Our only negative we had was that we weren't able to stay longer!

Location
The neighbourhood
There are wonderful medieval villages and towns to explore, markets to buy local produce, châteaux to admire and history to soak up, all within easy reach. Hire bikes and explore the tiny village, which does have a bakery. Find cycle tracks, waymarked walks, the river Dordogne just 5kms away at Siorac-en-Périgord for launching canoes or paddle boards.
Local points of interest from Neil Walker
- Enjoy a pleasant, 25 minute walk through country lanes, passing Sagelat’s 12th century church, up to the medieval village of Belvès with its restaurants, café-bars and weekly Saturday morning market.
- Easy access to many châteaux and gardens, each with their own unique history and heritage, including Château des Milandes once owned by the famous jazz singer, Josephine Baker and Jardins de Marqueyssac famed for its overhanging gardens and box hedges.
- An unforgettable experience is a flight in a hot air balloon taking in the full grandeur of the Dordogne valley and river. See the architectural and breathtaking landscapes from an entirely different perspective.
- Cycling enthusiasts can hire bikes for collection or delivery from a company based in Castelnaud-la-Chapelle with a discount given to our guests. For walkers there are many great routes on the doorstep taking you through stunning woodlands and countryside.
- Enjoy a delicious meat or cheese platter (or both) at Planches et Plonk wine bar in Belvès as featured in Channel 4's 'A New Life In The Sun’. They do takeaway platters too!
- Stroll around Sarlat's bustling market only 40 minutes away, discovering fresh local produce and delicacies to give you a taste of French life.

Introducing
Neil Walker
Neil and David live on the other side of the courtyard. They fell in love with the Dordogne on a holiday then launched themselves into this new venture. David does the overall design work while Neil focuses on the detail. Together they make sure that all is well thought out and you are looked after beautifully - they are very happy to chat and give tips or just leave you to get on with things.
We have just spent a wonderful 2 weeks at this delightful place. The situation is perfect, the extensive gardens merging with beautiful countryside. The fabulous Gite and its lovely large pool way exceeded our expectations. Everything has been so well thought out and of such high quality, with great attention to detail. The great hosts Neil and David were on hand to offer help if needed and made us feel very welcome. An ideal holiday destination in this beautiful part of the Dordogne, and we will certainly be back.
