Les Eyzies Grotte du Grand Roc Hotels

"Beautiful pool and garden, beautiful quiet location - house was good but old fashioned and required more thorough cleaning and attention to detail on cleaning crockery, checking for bugs in house (cleaning again) and ensuring that all facilities were in good working order which they were not. Heating was broken, dishwasher did not clean properly, no hot water in evening, then internet went down in storm affecting TV, with little to no contact with owner. This house needs TLC as did we so we felt cold, neglected and disappointed with our holiday. Apart from one load of logs for the fire which cheered us up we were pretty much ignored by the owner except when he arrived to check the heating and the plumber tried to fix. But it came on once at 2am then that was it. So very sorry but it was all too frustrating. Better communication is required. "

"An unforgettable stay for 4 weeks at Gites Freyssines. Carole was lovely and very responsive and catered to almost every request we had. House was spacious, private and relaxing. All the amenities one would want in the kitchen it had too alongside 2 large fridge freezers. The only issue we found was a lot of damp in the downstairs bedroom, there are a lot of bugs so we were reluctant to open windows so I think window mesh would be a good investment for the property to allow guests to open windows and not worry about bugs flying in. If you are squeemish around bugs and wasps I would not recommend as there are a lot around, however we came across no mosquitos which was a huge relief.The unheated pool area was lovely too. Clearly very well kept and just a lovely area to relax in. The property being pet friendly and lovely large open spaces meant our dog had a lovely holiday too. Around the area the nearby town of Le Bugue had everything you need too including weekly markets and large supermarkets. We would recommend to anybody visiting to eat at the nearby golf club too. The food was amazing!Thank you so much again Carole! We will be sure to pay another visit if we come to the area again. "

"We had a fabulous time at the villa, it was a lovely place to spend two weeks. The location is peaceful and pretty, the pool was a welcome retreat in the heat and the house itself was impressive. The air conditioning worked really well, as did all the appliances. The bathrooms were very nice and clean. We also took our cavapoo who enjoyed the large garden. While there is a fence or electric fence surrounding the majority of the property, we did not feel it was secure enough to let our dog off-lead as we knew there were areas he could get out or under, but he is a small dog. It got particularly hot while we were there (August - pure sun every day!) and we asked if there were any additional fans, the owner arranged for them to be with us the same day, which was greatly appreciated. Les Eyzies is a lovely small town and the villa is really well situated for exploring the region. During our stay we went on canoe trips down both the Vezere and Dordogne rivers, which we really enjoyed with our teenage sons. My parents also came with us and loved the area and house."

"Great little house, just right for us. Peaceful location but near to facilities. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and plenty of towels and sheets. The host Liliane was most attentive and gave us good suggestions for an outing."

"Rambling large country home on a hilltop in the Dordogne area of SW France. Great outdoor amenities with a heated pool and large hot tub and outdoor shower. Also outdoor dining area with umbrellas and lovely views. The XL dining room was a great bonus for our family dinners. All bedrooms have an en-suite bathroom. There is no powder bathroom or half bath. As Americans we struggled with the size of the small showers. Also there is no A/C and the upstairs can get quite warm in the summer. There are fans in all of the bedrooms. Andy was very helpful and always ready to guide us about the property and the region and make great suggestions. They have an excellent binder in the house as well with a lot of info. We all had a wonderful time here! "

"The staff was friendly and engaging, and the property grounds are just lovely - sandstone patios and walks leading into views of the village cliffs."

"Horrible checkin process. Also your room has to pass inspection before you check-out or your 100 euro deposit is not refunded. Also you have to make and strip beds and haul the sheets and towels out."

"The hotel was just as I remembered it. Beautiful rooms looking out in a courtyard that leads to a very nice swimming pool. Everything about the stay was nice except the restaurant which was very disappointing. I had remembered this from four years ago as a lovely wonderful Happy meal. This time terrible service and ridiculous pricing. They force you into tasting menus with high price and tiny portions. No flexibility. Everybody has to get the same thing. This caused great problems because one member of our family was not feeling well and couldn’t eat much. Also, the seating for the restaurant was in full sun at 8:00 PM and everybody on the patio was uncomfortable as the sun ran its way across their attempted protection of flimsy curtains. That ridiculously expensive meal was the low point of our time in France,"

"The hosts were very helpful. The dog proof garden was crucial for us. Any questions we had were responded to very quickly. The walk into the town was not long and quite lovely, but rather steep. Fun for a couple of days."
