Les Tourterelles

Annie must surely be the kindest and most helpful host in the whole of Sawdays! She seemed to know exactly the sort of places we would want to visit, and when we didn't want to leave her beautiful cottage (or rather the coolness of her rain-filled plunge pool; we were there when the temperature was in the high 30's!) we were made to feel completely at home. The Dordogne is beautiful, the crowds are avoidable and Les Tourterelles is definitely the place to stay!

Les Tourterelles is the most delightful place to spend a week or two to get away from it all. Annie has made the apartment so beautiful, with lots of careful little touches. The bed is super comfortable and the bathroom is huge. There is so much to do and see in the area, but the best bit is coming back in the evening! Annie herself could not have been more helpful and friendly.

If you would like to pretend that you are living in a beautiful stone house, in a tiny village, away from the tourists (but still so close to everything), then Les Tourterelles is the perfect spot for you. What Annie has created is a place that is effortlessly stylish, comfortable and homely. We loved the drive 'home' each afternoon to the petite hilltop hamlet (Le Peyrusal), where you will hear nothing but the birds above and bees buzzing in the garden. This is a true provencal experience in the Dordogne and Annie is the warmest (unobtrusive) host, who made our time here feel extra special. x

Annie is the perfect hostess with the mostest. Could not do enough for us on our stay with her. Always asking if we had been here or there and giving great advice on the local attractions. As we were arriving later in the day she booked dinner at an amazing restaurant in Daglan for us that night. Spent many evenings having aperitifs before dinner with her. Accommodation was first class with everything there that you needed for a relaxing stay, including condiments, vegetables & fruit from her garden and use of her swimming pool. We highly recommend staying here and she is a wonderful host.

We arrived to find a true piece of heaven. The cottage is simply charming and every detail is absolute perfection. For me it was amazing to arrive and find the cottage immaculate and spotless - I couldn't have asked for more. Our host was excellent 100% available but not intrusive. I particularly enjoyed waking up to the sunshine peering through the shutters and the sound of the cockerels echoing in the hamlet. We enjoyed relaxing walks and found plenty to keep us amused in the area. There are many attractions to suit all and great restaurants serving local cuisine. Thank you Annie.
