Reviews
Frans en Jeanet Baak from Huis ter Heide,
Zoek je een vakantie huisje in Frankrijk om even helemaal tot rust te komen, dan ben je bij Chiel en Elaine echt op de juiste plek. De mooie rustige omgeving, het fijne huisje met alles er op en er aan. De privésfeer, de gastvrijheid, het fijne zwembad, en niet te vergeten de heerlijke kookkunsten van Elaine. 👌 Kortom, dit is voor ons zéker een reden om nog een terug te gaan. Hartelijk dank voor het creëren van deze fijne vakantie ruimte in alle opzichten. Hartelijke groetjes, Frans en Jeanet Baak. 🙋♂️🙋🏼♀️
Huub Ramakers from Lochem,
Mooi gelegen gîte bovenop een heuvel van waaruit je Bergerac kunt zien liggen in het dal van de Dordogne. Nadat wij onze spullen hadden uitgepakt en onze gastheer en -vrouwe ons wegwijs gemaakt hadden, ontvingen zij, Elaine en Chiel, ons zeer hartelijk en gastvrij met een aangeklede borrel aan de rand van het zwembad.
Ook later bleken zij steeds attent en behulpzaam, waardoor ons verblijf in l'Aubergerac deze weken erg aangenaam was. De gîte is goed voorzien van alle dagelijkse benodigdheden en comfort om als uitvalsplek te dienen voor wie de streek van de Dordogne wil verkennen of - zoals wij - enkele mooie golfbanen te bezoeken. En als je echt lekker en uitgebreid wilt eten hoef je nergens naar toe: Elaine kan ook nog heel lekker koken!Hans en Riki Telgen from Heerenveen,
Allerhartelijkst ontvangen door Elaine en Chiel. Tijdens een heerlijke maaltijd wat nader kennisgemaakt, wat erg prettig was. Ook heel plezierig is het om alles voor een lekker ontbijt te vinden. De gîte was schoon en comfortabel, Lekkere bedden. Vooral buiten ontbreekt het aan niets, diverse zitjes (uit of in de zon), met een prachtig uitzicht. Kortom; wij hadden een heel prettig verblijf.
Restaurants, food & wine
The Périgord is famous for its cuisine: truffles, confit de canard, foie gras, walnuts, honey... On the weekly markets you will find many delicious local products.
In addition, wine in this region is of great importance and of excellent quality. If you like sweet wines, the world-famous Monbazzillac is a must (Château Monbazzillac is 12 km from the gîte). An excellent combination with paté, foie gras or blue cheese.
Furthermore, L'Aubergerac is only a few kilometres away from the Pécharmant-region: beautiful, firm wines that are not inferior to the more famous Bordeaux wines.
And, of course, not forgetting the wines of Château Puypezac, the grapevines on which you can look out from the garden. Frederic, the owner, makes, among other things, a very special white Rosette.
In the city of Bergerac you will find a variety of cosy terraces and good restaurants.
