The house is spacious, very well equipped and had everything we needed for a relaxing week. The garden is huge with plenty of shady places to sit as the weather was quite hot. Monpazier is only 3 km away.

We have just returned from a wonderful week at this beautiful house. The house is spotless and mr and madam Delmon have thought of everything needed for a stay. The grounds of the house are amazing with so much space... brilliant for our dog! The hot tub was great although due the extremely hot weather we had it as a cool tub. It is only a five minute walk to the village restaurant which did a fantastic lunch. It was beyond our expectations and we would recommend to others.

We stayed at Macou for three weeks in June, 2016. It is a wonderful house and has every convenience one could ask for. The description is completely accurate and the house was spotless when we arrived. If you want peace and quiet, this is the house for you. It is on a large parcel of land (over 15 acres) and there are no neighbors nearby. The lawn, flowers and trees are well maintained and beautiful and we enjoyed sitting under one of the large oak trees in the front yard and reading or relaxing. We especially enjoyed the outdoor spa and used it every day. We did not use it much, but there is a large flat-screen TV with plenty of channels and a DVD player. You will need to bring your own movies. Mr. and Mrs. Delmon were perfect and did everything they could to make sure that we were comfortable and that we understood all of the appliances and devices in the house. We really appreciated the extra efforts they went to in order to communicate with us. They do not speak English and we speak only a little French but Mrs. Delmon was very skilled in using her smart phone as a translation/interpretation tool so we were able to understand each other very well. The house is just three kilometers from the bastide town of Monpazier where there are restaurants, a wonderful boulangerie, and many shops. There are two small grocery stores but to find a supermarket you will have to drive 20-25 minutes. The location is about 30 km south of the Dordogne River, an hour from Bergerac and about two hours from Bordeaux. Nearly every day we drove off to visit a different destination. Within an hour or two are famous attractions such as La Roque Saint Christophe, Sarlat, Perigueux, Limeuil, Monbazillac, Rocamadour, Cahors, Moissac, Saint Emilion, etc. The drive to Toulouse airport takes about 2.5 hours. We can highly recommend this house and we hope for another opportunity to return. There is a wood-burning stove and plenty of firewood so even in the colder seasons it must be very comfortable and cozy.

The house is fantastic, clean, spacious, expensively equipped, and much better than we were expecting. M. and Mme. Delmon were lovely, welcoming, and very helpful. The grounds are really something special. The house is set completely on its own, approached via a long (500m?) driveway, with no near neighbours at all. The gardens surrounding the house were perfect for our three children, what we did not realise was that the garden extends to include a VERY large woodland behind the house. We could actually go for a long walk in the grounds. We built a den in the woods. When we left the house early on Saturday morning, about a mile from the house, a wild boar ran into the road in front of us. Hawks everywhere. Truly amazing. All this within 5 minutes of beautiful Monpazier, and within an hour of many of the fabulous attractions of the region. We really enjoyed the Grotte du Grand Roc, a boat trip at Bergerac, Le Bournat, Les Jardins D'Imaginaire, Bergerac Aquapark (small but good for very young children), we were lucky enough to be there during the July Monpazier Medieval Fete, but there seemed to be countless local events throughout the summer. We didn't find a gem of a restaurant (difficult with three young children anyway) but we had a delicious ice cream at Les 7 Clochers at Belves up the road, and the view was pretty special, too. We gave up on getting a ticket for Lascaux since we did not realise we would have to queue for hours. I was told it might be easier to come at the end of the day (between 4 and 5pm) and buy one for the following day. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking for a tranquil setting, but near to lots to do. We wish we had stayed longer!
