Nothing much has changed since our last visit to Montfort Maison except that everything seems to have gone up in price.
The house was adequate for our needs and the bed being particularly comfortable.
The food speciality being foies gras and canard every menu has it.
We enjoyed our stay very much

On arrival at the property in early evening, found a dusty, stale smelling property with very dated facilities and bedding, which we didn't use for the entire week of my stay, choosing to renew it the next day from the local hypermarket.
The setting was wonderful, with a view of the chateau but it soon became clear this was a very neglected property amongst pristine neighbours.A neighbour advised several previous visitors had complained or left early.
After a clean and a day's airing the house was (just) bearable.
A call to the service agent regarding the gas cooker not working took a full 28 hours to visit, and she was a very surly individual, speaking no English, who proved very unhepful.
The calor gas cooker was in fact working, but the gas bottle appeared empty to me, so my mistake.
The agent appeared annoyed, however at the unnecessary callout, and was certainly not able to resolve the non operating T.V.
Areas of concern, which we managed to with some effort work around are as follows.
1. Precipitous staircase leading to upper floor, with wholly inadequate handrail.
2.Balcony with view to chateau had a broken rail, very poorly repaired by inadequate fixings.
Also, a trellis screen attempting to add safety to the open railing, was in itself a hazard, as it was fixed only with garden wire, twisted to a sharp point at several locations, risking cuts .
3.Bathroom door from bedroom could not close, leading to unhygenic smells and lack of privacy.
4.Calor gas bottle for cooker was inside the house , immediately next to the cooker.
Absolutely safety risk
5.Bed was propped up by another botched home made support, totally inadequate. Again no repair, no renewal of a vital part of furnishing.
6.Toilet openly housed in utility room, immediately adjacent to kitchen separated only by a thin wall and opening door only inches from the fridge.
I made no complaint to the agent of the above, due to the surly and inadequate response of her visit, and also because I could not afford alternative accommodation as I had laid out lots of finance to travel to and pay for this holiday.I was also waiting on refund of damage deposit in case of repercussions.
In conclusion, I have lots of photographs evidencing the above which I am quite happy to share, but this forum has no facility.

The location is excellent for exploring the area, the venue has all the amenities necessary except if your English and want to watch TV as there is only World News in English but as the sun shone every day it was not necessary.
The lack of WiFi caused me a problem as French Bars and Restaurant don't tend to have free WiFi and if they have, I have no French to ask for it.
We enjoyed our stay very much it was a pity we did not meet the two ladies Joelle and Brigette.
We will return.

The Dordogne is as beautiful as ever. We thoroughly enjoyed visiting a number of places we have previously visited, all within very easy reach of Montfort. There are so many different types of excursion: prehistory (Lascaux, Vezere Valley), chateaux and castles (Beynac, Castelnaud), villages (Domme, La Roque Gageac), towns (Sarlat), and beautiful countryside everywhere.
The gite was fine for a couple, for a week. Its position was its best feature. It had all the required facilities, as stated, but needs a little refurbishment. Lighting was very poor and made reading in the evening difficult. TV had only French programmes, no wifi (also lacking throughout the area.)

Maison de Montfort was perfect for the two of us. The view of the chateau is truly magnificent and the village has everything you could want; a bar, bakery and beach! The house itself is well designed and equipped and very comfortable. Despite atrocious weather in the latter half of the week we were able to eat outside under a sturdy roof and enjoy the view and the birdsong.
Charming cottage situated in the heart of many local attractions. Spacious for two people with a large bedroom upstairs. There is an ensuite shower and sink with an ensuite toilet separate but also ensuite. A veranda off of the upstairs bedroom is ideal for sunning and has a spectacular view of the Chateau de Montfort. Downstairs has a living/ dining area equipped with a TV. There is a kitchen which contains everything you should need for food prep. The downstairs patio is covered and has a barbecue. There is a second WC downstairs for your convenience.
There is a bar/restaurant “Le Centenaire” and a bakery Margot in the village. The centre commercial LeClerc is 4-5 km’s away on the route to Sarlat.
Swimming / Canoeing in the Dordogne is about 2 kms away. Centre Commercial LeClerc (supermarket) is 4 kms away. Sarlat, La Roque Gageac, Domme, Castleneau and Beynac are all within 5-10 kms. Lascaux and many prehistoric sites are 15-20 kms away. It is an ideal location to explore all of the extraordinary sites of the Dordogne. Golfing at Roche Bois is 1km away. Horseback riding and biking is also available around the local area. Le grande Randonnee passes directly by the property. Check with the Office de Tourism for all attractions current information. Enjoy!
