The house was wonderful: spacious, comfortable, laden with charm and character, and well-located for exploring the region. The kitchen contained every tool and appliance necessary for meal preparation, and Stephane has brilliantly affixed laminated step-by-step operating instructions to the cooker, washer, dryer, etc.-- such a thoughtful thing to do! He was an excellent host; hospitable, informational, and readily available. The single negative aspect of our stay occurred toward the end and was neither his fault nor a problem with the house, but one of timing. The disruption caused by the setting-up of the rides, booths, etc. for the annual village fête made parking and getting in and out of little Bretenoux complicated and annoying. By all means, enjoy staying at this interesting 15th century house, but make sure the village calendar is free of events!
Excellent séjour dans une belle maison conforme à l'offre de Stéphane.
Rien ne manque Stéphane semble être soucieux du moindre détail pour le bien-être de ses locataires.
Séjour bien agréable, location très fonctionnelle. Demeure de charme.
Si vous souhaitez dormir dans le salon, l'animation de la place peut gêner. Par contre les deux autres chambres sont très silencieuses et équipées de leur propre salle de bain.
Nous garderons un très bon souvenir de notre séjour !
Très belle demeure ancienne avec un confort moderne
Le charme des vielles pierres et un véritable passé.

Superbe maison
Séjour effectué pour le travail la maison est vraiment très belle très spacieuse avec une grande histoire.
Il n'y a que 2 mais franchement y à plein de place.
Il n'y a pas de jardin mais la rue où se situe la maison est magnifique silencieuse et plein d'histoires également.
J'ai passé 3 nuit dans la maison et je n'ai manqué de rien comme à la maison .
Le propriétaire est accueillant et à l'écoute .
Quand je reviendrai je sais où dormir.
Merci.
Annonce parfaitement en ligne avec la réalité, très bon accueil par Stéphane, horaires flexibles. La maison possède un charme indéniable, le village est au coeur d'une région très intéressante, à la limite entre la Corrèze et le Lot, c'est parfait. Propreté irréprochable, cuisine bien équipée (il manque juste un rouleau à patisserie), électroménager complet, notices d'instructions affichées claires. Vraiment tout a été fait pour rendre le séjour agréable !
Juste un point de vigilance pour les personnes sensibles: le bar au Rez de Chaussée sous le salon peut empêcher de dormir en début de nuit si vous utilisez le canapé lit du salon, mais cela reste raisonnable.
En conclusion je recommande cette location sans réserve !
