    Where should we start?! The amazing villa, the great pool, or the perfect host Christian? We stayed here for a week with 5 couples and children and enjoyed every moment of it. Another big thanks to Christion for his hospitality! We can only recommend this place, so don't hesitate to book it!

  • 9 stars

    We enjoyed a marvelous family holiday in Le Creyssac. The domain is spacious and gorgeous and super well maintained. Lovely infinity pool, looking over the valley. Cute terraces to enjoy sun or shadow everywhere. Tasteful and large house, with enough room for our rather large group. Christian is a superb host, friendly yet discrete. Cudos to the cute house cat (we named him Jean-Francois) that kept us company. Highly recommended.

Visits to towns and villages :
Brantôme, nicknamed "The Venice of Périgord", lies at the heart of the green and fresh Dronne valley.

Visit the market and enjoy the many restaurants, cafés, ice-cream parlours... Take part in the medieval water jousting on the river.
Bourdeilles: This village, founded in the 10th century, is one of the most important tourist sites in the region. It still boasts a large number of ancient monuments, as well as a rich and diverse natural environment. Medieval castles, prehistoric sites and Renaissance buildings are all on the agenda.
