Romantic Cottage near Dordogne Sarlat with Heated Pool, Hot Tub, Sauna, Gym,WiFi

We stayed here for our honeymoon & could not have had a more perfect week. From the minute we booked this cottage we kept in contact with Linda who helped us plan & organise our whole week, she introduced us to dimitri who came and cooked for us the most exquisite meal whilst we ate outside on our beautiful private patio watching the birds dance in and out of the mulberry tree. It was like something out of a Disney film! George was kind enough to let us come meet “the girls” & provided us with fresh eggs for our stay. The we enjoyed a few nights in the hot tub with a glass (or two) of local wine overlooking the French countryside & spent every day swimming in the pool. The fact there was no chlorine in the pool was an experience & our hair never felt dry after! The cottage was full f everything we could ever need or even had thought of! All the small things were taken care off and Linda and George were always around to help. Everything felt so personal even though we knew how popular the cottage was! We really felt like we made friends this week & had a taste of our own little paradise before heading back to reality! We will definitely be back! -faye & Lawrence hearn

My husband and I have lived and traveled throughout various countries in Europe, and of all the places we have stayed in, the Butterfly Cottage is the most divine, it is sheer perfection!

The Cottage is an elegantly rustic 17th century building which is furnished with impeccable taste. It is spacious and the decorations exquisite, the gardens and property are sumptuous. The kitchen is extremely well-appointed with every conceivable gadget, every imaginable amenity is provided from fine crystal champagne glasses to picnic baskets. Incredible attention to detail from French provincial table linens, lush terry cloth bathrobes, excellent lighting to read, and a king size bed with an amazingly comfortable mattress for a relaxing night of sleep.

Our host and hostess, are generous, gracious people. We were greeted with milk, orange juice, coffee, teas, spices, wine and daily, fresh eggs from 'the girls'. They have the rare combination of gracious hospitality without ever being intrusive. They are available, if needed, and then seem invisible so one has as much privacy as desired. They are very perceptive and 'read' their guests well. Both are passionate about their property, the area and ensuring their guests' happiness. They also offered recommendations for local attractions, goose farms, restaurants, gardens, villages and hikes that were not in any of our tour guides.

The Dordogne region is heaven and the views from the meticulously clean hot tub and heated swimming pool are unparalleled. One sees lush, rolling hills, grazing cattle, wisteria covered pergolas and barnyards filled with lilacs and Swallows. The property is extremely well kept.

Not only would I highly recommend this to everyone, I would highlight this is a property not to be missed. Pure heaven!!

We spent an absolutely perfect week at the Butterfly Cottage. Plenty of space, complete kitchen with everything you need, amazingly comfortable bed, beautiful relaxing sitting room, a gorgeous patio area to relax and enjoy the birds during an afternoon drink, and most of all stylish charm. We have been to many a Gites in France and the Butterfly Cottage tops our list. Located in one of the most charming regions of France. Everything you would want to see or do are within minutes drive from the cottage. We will be returning again, and hopefully for a longer stay.

We stayed at the Butterfly Cottage for a wonderfully memorable week . When we arrived we were greeted by our hosts Linda and George who were extremely welcoming and showed us around the cottage. We were overwhelmed by the quality of the cottage, a lovely enclosed courtyard centered by a beautiful Mulberry tree greeted us on our way into the very clean, and fully equipped kitchen. Through to the lounge and dining area with extremely comfortable furniture (which was very welcoming after days of hiking the Dordogne). Huge TV and freesat + DVD, stereo etc..... Upstairs a beautifully decorated bedroom with a "massive" king size bed ( so comfortable you don't want to get out of it in the morning). The cottage was also extremely clean, and spotless.

Our days were filled with hiking the most beautiful villages of the Dordogne, such a Beynac, La Roque Gageac, Domme, and our favorite St.Leon sur Vezere, then returning in the afternoon to soak up the sun and relax in the heated pool or soothing Jacuzzi. George and Linda do a marvelous job of keeping up the garden, where we sat in the evenings enjoying a relaxing glass or two of wine. Truly a place we recommend for its quality, comfort, and relaxation - can't wait to return.

This is a most delightful place to be in the Dordogne - and the Butterfly Cottage is the perfect place for 2 people. It has a lovely courtyard to sit and relax, gardens and views across open countryside. The whole property is so well appointed with everything you need - and if you're short of something then Linda and George will supply it for you. The furnishings and decor are very tasteful and restful and it feels like a home away from home as soon as you step inside. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need to prepare your meals. The bedroom has the most comfortable king size bed you will probably find in all of France. The swimming pool area is great and the extent of the property is such that there is a wonderful sense of space.

HIghly recommended for a peaceful and relaxing stay - and there are plenty of places to visit in the area. The location of the Butterfly Cottage gave us the opportunity to explore a wide area and we were able to discover many beautiful places that suited our taste. We had great weather and having a base to come home to was ideal. We certainly would recommend anyone to stay here its absolutely delightful.

Thank you Linda and George for an absolutely delightful stay! We are already looking at our calendar for 2018 to make a return visit to your beautiful piece of paradise!! Susan & Greg - Manchester, U.K.
