Review Submitted: 26 January 2013 Date of Stay: August 2012
What a lovely time we all had at Lartimache. It was just perfect for our family group with plenty of room in the house for the children and adults. The facilities are excellent and we loved the sheltered pool surrounded by the barn walls - also very secure with young children. The owners were most helpful and
recommended some good local restaurants and we loved exploring the woods
and country lanes. We'll definitely be back!

Thanks very much to the pez's for their kindness and felicitation for the very good customer service. Lartimache was just the perfect place to enjoy teaching the salsa to 10 persons. There were lots of the commodities (5 bathrooms, big kitchen, cheminey...) and the place is beautiful.
I recommend this property +++ and I will soon organize a new stage of salsa during a week end.

Review Submitted: 15 July 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
First impression is WOW the property is certainly unique - Decor is stunning and all bedrooms are airy and with own en-suite - ideal for big families or groups. There are swings, table tennis, some toys and the local wildlife/animals to keep the kids amused. The Donkeys live another barn which is next to the property - they are very friendly and love fruit/veg leftovers!! Location is good - It only took 45 -50 mins from Limoges airport and note that most people book Avis etc for car hire - we had cite europe booked through Holiday Autos and so walked straight in and got the keys. However everybody else was queuing for the main car operators - so if you do go with them - get your luggage and exit quickly to pick it up otherwise you could be hanging around for a while..........
A 20 min walk from lartimache approx 2 kms to local village and chez jules bar - no english spoken but seemed friendly.If you leave the property entrance and go left towards the big oak lake, keep going for 1/2 mile and you will find a lily pond full of singing frogs - our kids loved it. Also not far (1/2 hour) from Lake Estephe - absolutely beautiful spot with beach play park cafe restaurant etc; all clean and well maintained - we spent many days here.
In all we saw; Deer,buzzards,hawks,lizards,frogs,fox.rabbit all locally so keep your eyes peeled.
The only 2 major drawbacks of this property were; the pool is not heated and as it is housed on the upstairs floor within the barn walls - it was very cold. We were here end May and even with some sun on it all day, the water was just bearable.
The other one is the washing facilities - it is an old drum machine and doesn't work very well - we had mixed weather and by the 2nd week were struggling - It would have been a god send if we had had a tumble dryer as well!
Having said that - this are small niggles and we still had a fabulous holiday, and would return again.
