We had a wonderful time in the Grange and enjoyed our stay very much.

One of the best villas we have stayed at over many years of holidaying in France. Clean, well equipped, private and very comfortable. Many thanks to Grant for making us feel relaxed and at home in the sun.

We stayed at the Grange of the three Dezie Manor properties and had a brilliant two weeks. It’s a lovely peaceful setting, perfect if you want to relax and unwind by the lovely pool or the pretty outdoor area. It was hotter than normal for September so the shady areas were needed but at the same time the trees were changing colour and leaves starting to fall which felt very autumnal. Grant was very helpful and friendly and we would definitely love to return. There is plenty to do nearby, we liked Le Bugue & Limieul, Marqueyssac Gardens and Bergerac all within 30 to 40 minutes drive, things do start to shut earlier or open less days in September though so plan ahead before going. Best meal we had was the tasting menu at Dix in Sainte Alvere, bit pricy but lovely place. All in all a fantastic holiday. Sarah & David

On arrival we were instantly wowed by the incredible finish of the villa, there is everything you will need for a home from home stay but with lots of added extras. The courtyard is well kept and there is plenty of room for several cars. The pool area is lovely with lots of sun-beds and shady places to relax and also eat Al fresco. Unfortunately it rained for a few days of our stay but we still made use of the covered areas despite this. The Hot Tub was out of use when we were there which was disappointing but Grant tried his best to source a part to try to fix it. Unlike a lot of French villas that we have stayed in previously the home furnishings were very comfortable and it was a bonus to have English TV as the Euros started on the first night of our stay. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all well-fitted and comfortable with lots of nice rustic touches that were very homely. Nearby you will find some little towns that have various shops, bars, restaurants and also supermarkets so you are never far from supplies but will need a car to reach them. We have to mentioned the host Grant who was extremely hospitable and helpful during our stay but never intrusive. Starting with recommending a local restaurant (Chez Julien - well worth a visit!). He also helped us one night when our hire car encountered a puncture on the way to dinner. He came out and took us to the restaurant and waited for the recovery vehicle on our behalf and then picked us up from the restaurant afterwards - definitely above and beyond anything we could have wished for and made sure our last night wasn't a disaster! The hosts' adorable dog Dougie is very friendly and comes to say hello throughout the day without being a nuisance, we were sad to say goodbye to him and La Vieille Dezie Cottage. Despite the disappointing weather we had a lovely stay and hope to return in the near future.
