Peace and calm in a stunning property
This is a gorgeous historic building, well restored and very comfortable, overlooking the river (which when we visited, in August, was shallow enough for children to paddle in). The town is calm and ancient, and there are stunning views of it from the property. The owner was very friendly and welcoming, and we’d love to come again.

COMMENTAIRES MONTMORILLON
Très belle demeure refaite à neuf et bien placée en centre ville. Nous y avons séjourné une semaine entre Noël et le jour de l'an et avons malheureusement eu très très froid. Le système de chauffage n'est pas adapté à la taille de la demeure, notamment dans la pièce de vie. Nous avons dû acheter un convecteur pour assécher et chauffer la pièce principale dans laquelle la température devait s'élever à 14 degrés. Nous faisions de la buée en respirant, une personne est tombée malade, heureusement qu'il n'y avait pas d'enfant en bas âge. Par ailleurs, le réfrigérateur n'a pas un volume permettant le stockage de denrées pour plus de 4 personnes alors que la capacité d'accueil de la location est de 12 personnes. Il n'est même pas possible de faire des glaçons. Enfin, aucune chambre ne dispose d'une armoire ou d'un portant permettant de vider ses valises et accrocher les vêtements... Le fait d'avoir eu extrêmement froid a gâché notre séjour. c'est dommage car, sous réserve des défauts décrits ci-dessus, cet endroit pourrait être parfait.
