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.

Reviews

A haven of peace and beauty in which to relax by the pool, lie in a hammock beneath a veteran tree or indulge in a gentle game of croquet, unless a burst of energy takes you outside to the medieval castles and villages that line the Dordogne, just five minutes away. Especially impressed by the attention to detail: flowers, external blinds to the windows, and links to the local community.

Just returned from a wonderful stay. The property and setting are both beautiful. We had the warmest of welcomes from Neil and David who introduced us to some of the charming villages in the area. Will definitely be back.

We stayed in the Gîte in September 2021. It's even prettier than the video suggests. We had the most wonderful stay here in the Dordogne. Neil and Dave were the perfect attentive hosts. And the private, heated pool was a real luxury. It's the most amazing and calming place, beautiful valleys and restaurants to explore along the Dordogne.

Claire, Tunbridge Wells

We stayed at Gite La Banne for 7 nights. We were warmly welcomed by Neil and David with drinks in the tranquil and beautiful surroundings of La Banne. The gite was clean, beautifully decorated, comfortable and with every amenity you can think of. The garden and salt water pool were immaculately maintained, it was private, very peaceful and relaxing. Neil and David were perfect hosts who advised us on places to visit, restaurants to eat at, markets to visit, nothing was ever too much trouble. I would highly recommend staying at La Banne, it exceeded all our expectations and will visit again!

We had a great time in this beautiful and large house in the Dordogne. It's really a superb house with all the trimmings, modern, spacious bedrooms with private bathrooms, clean, lots of garden space, beautiful and a spacious pool (great view) with fully equipped outdoor kitchen in a great environment. The hosts Neil and David were very friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much for them. In short, a real winner!

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.
