I have been drooling over this stone house for two years - it was love at first sight online and the reality was even better than the pictures! The views are incredible and the house is comfortable and cozy. We had everything we needed and we much appreciated the washing machine. Frédérique was lovely and checked in on us every day asking how we were doing and giving us suggestions for things to do in the area. We loved Martine who met us for check-in and helped us with parking. The trek up to the house is quite steep but once we got our luggage up it wasn’t so bad (my husband and I are in our 60’s and 70’s). There is so much to see in the area and we will definitely be back to spend another week in this beautiful place.

We had a fabulous week staying this villa in Beynac. The location was perfect with plenty of restaurants and cafes and things to do within easy walking distance plus many more sights and experiences within a half hour drive. The villa certainly was great. The best feature is the magnificent view from the terrace. We certainly spent time there every morning and evening soaking up the vista. The villa was good for our needs too. It is well equipped and comfortable with everything we needed including a washing machine. The host was a great communicator. Check in worked perfectly and the host gave us some excellent suggestions during our stay. One tip though would be to see if you can drop your suitcases up near the castle and wheel them down rather than having to wheel them uphill to the villa.

Our stay at the stone roof house was a dream from start to finish! We arrived very late (9:30pm!) due to late plane, car rental snafu, and torrential rain. Our hostess Frédérique was in touch with us the whole trip, and Martine the housekeeper met us when we arrived and helped us find the house.We loved being in the heart of the village, yet so private. The house is spacious and comfortable. Our favorite spot was the terrace and garden, with the glorious view of the Dordogne river and the valley.Frédérique was in touch with us nearly every day, with assistance and suggestions, so thoughtful and appreciated. Communication throughout our stay was easy and responsive. The lovely Martine helped us with our heavy bags on the steep cobbled streets, and dropped in several times, once bringing flowers! Her cheerful energy and helpfulness contributed so much to our stay. We hope to return one day!

We just returned home from our stay at the Stoneroofed house in Beynac and we miss it already. In the week that we stayed in this magical place we enjoyed starting our day by opening our windows to the cool air and hiking down to Les Delices de la Vallee for morning pastries. The croissants, plain and chocolate filled; the pain au raisin; the pistachio/chocolate-filled and almond-filled pastries; the eclairs and bread - all were wonderful. (We justified eating all of these, as well as our tasting of area glaces and gelato, by all of our hiking up and down the small stone paths, climbing stairs in villages and chateaux, and daily walking to explore the many sites of the area.)My camera is filled with wonderful sunrises and sunsets, including morning mist in the valleys and hot air balloons rising over the chateaux at dawn and dusk.We canoed the Dordogne one morning, starting our trip at 0930, which meant we almost had the river to ourselves and it was before the heat of the day. We would definitely do that again. We enjoyed touring Chateau Beynac very much - the amazing construction of the chateau and the views of the valley were well worth the climb. Chateau de Castelnaud-la-Chapelle was also enjoyable, with an interesting display of weaponry of the time. We explored many villages in the area and attended several markets. I think our favorite villages explored were Beynac, La Roque-Gageac and Domme. We also enjoyed the market in Cenac-et-Saint Julien and made an impromptu picnic from some of our purchases there. Our early September weather was perfect.The path up to the Stoneroofed house is steep, as several reviews have mentioned, but definitely worth the climb. The home is comfortable and we appreciated the updated kitchen and bath. The patio and garden areas were the perfect site for picnics, evening glasses of wine, or just gazing at the amazing view. We had the opportunity to meet Frederique, daughter Kim, and Pascal one evening and count our time getting to know them as one of the highlights of our visit. Martine, who met and checked on us regularly, is a delight and was always helpful with whatever was needed. Our most memorable evening meals were at La Petite Tonnelle and La Terrasse des Chateaux in Beynac, and La Traverse Chez Les Filles in Cenac-et-Saint Julien. We also had a good pizza at Chez Tom while visiting La Roque-Gageac, and caught a live music performance (Blues) at Le Bo Bar in Beynac.We hope to return someday!
