Reviews
Marc Vermoolen from Tubbergen,
Op onze roadtrip naar Spanje kwamen we min of meer toevallig in de Gite Le Vieux Manoir terecht. Wat hebben we genoten van de dagen daar! Louise en Sem hebben hun 17e eeuwse landhuis zelf verbouwd en de gites met smaak en oog voor detail ingericht. Wij verbleven in de ‘Cave’, een heerlijk koele plek als het buiten 30plus graden is! Louse en Sem doen er alles aan om het hun gasten naar de zin te maken. Van restauranttips tot een telefoontje naar de opticiën. Twee keer in de week een fantastische maaltijd tijdens de Table d’hôte, met door Sem zelf bereide ‘charcuterie’. Heb ik het heerlijke zwembad nog niet eens genoemd. We willen absoluut een keer terug naar deze fantastische plek en lieve gastvrije hosts!
BOUNAR Ahmed from VILLEURBANNE,
Nous avons passé un séjour magnifique, dans un cadre superbe et un environnement calme et apaisant. Louise et Sem ont été d'une gentillesse et d'une attention remarquables. Toujours aux petits soins, souriants. Vacances inoubliables. Nous reviendrons avec enthousiasme.
Etablissement que nous recommandons vivement et sans modération.
Ahmed et ChahraJorma en Pieter from Nijmegen,
Zoals zovelen voor ons hebben ook wij een fantastische week bij Louise en Sem gehad. Wij verbleven in 'La cave', de 2-persoons gîte. Deze kleinste van de drie accommodaties is gelegen, zoals de naam al aangeeft, is de voormalige kelder van het hoofdhuis. De gîte was schoon en netjes en voorzien van echt alle noodzakelijke zaken. Zelf specerijen, olijfolie, theedoeken en schoonmaak artikelen waren present.
Als je dat wilt kan je er prima zelf koken want naast een ruime oven heb je de beschikking over voldoende potten en pannen en een grote inductiekookplaat. In de directe omgeving vind je voldoende dorpjes en stadjes met bezienswaardigheden en restaurantjes.Louise en Sem zijn fantastische mensen. Naast de nodige humor zijn ze erg hulpvaardige om het jou naar je zin te maken. Klein voorbeeld hiervan is dat je 24/7 gebruik kunt maken van het mooie zwembad met uitzicht over het landschap. Een absolute aanrader zijn de table d'hôtes creaties van Sem. Tijdens ons bezoek was het twee keer in de week mogelijk om aan te schuiven aan de lange tafel waarbij rekening wordt gehouden met ieders wensen en/of allergieën. Heerlijk eten en drinken in een ongedwongen sfeer. In één woord "Fantastisch'!
@Louise en Sem: Bedankt voor jullie gastvrijheid en oprechte warmte die wij hebben mogen ervaren. Tot ziens!

A stay on our estate is also the opportunity to taste the delicious local products such as; Chasselas grape from Moissac, Cassoulet, Foie Gras and all other specialties based on duck.
We are also surrounded by the three wine regions: Cahors, Bergerac and Bordeaux. It is possible to visit the wineries in these regions.
You can also obtain a simple vin du table or one of the above mentioned wine regions at the many wine chateau's.
We, Sem and Louise, would like to share with you our culinary hobby that got out of hand, with which we spoil the present guests with the local regional products.
The meals are composed in consultation with the guests and will vary between 15 and 25 € p.p. Matching wine arrangement from 7,50 € p.p.
An adapted meal can be prepared for children.
Opposite the house is a herb greenhouse which you can always use and fresh fruit can be picked in the orchard!

For the enthusiastic fishermen among you, we have the current fishing guide with numerous possibilities in the area. You can request your fishing card online in advance.
A tennis court is located in our village Valeilles at walking distance (500 m) and what about a great canoe trip along France's most picturesque villages such as St. Cirque de Popie and St. Antonin Noble le Val which are already more than worth a visit.
Our house is not on the golf course but at less than 20 km distance you can play a serious round at the 18 holes Golf en Countryclub of Villeneuve sur Lot or at the 9 holes Golf des Roucous in Sauveterre (40 km).
