Le Pigeonnier Visitors' Comments

“After our first visit last year we just had to return and check out the fantasy created in our minds. Thankfully, the La Garenne and Lot experience again lived up to our expectations.”
R and JC, Cheltenham, 2000

“What a wonderful house Le Pigeonnier has been – it was just perfect – the style, the décor, the equipment!!”
S and SB, Yorkshire, 2000

“A holiday home to be recommended with absolute confidence. Truly beautiful accommodation in a delightful setting. Le Pigeonnier is the best-equipped and most attractively appointed house we have come across in France.”
D and JA, Dorset, 2002

“Le Pigeonnier is superb, and the best gîte we have stayed in. We wanted peace, tranquillity and rest from very hectic lives, and we got it, and in such a lovely, well furnished house.”
R and GP, Wirral, 2002

“What a wonderful place! Watching the dawn break and the constantly changing colours of the scenery throughout the day are memories to cherish.”
S Family, Kent, 2002

“From an idle glance at the ads in a newsagent’s window … we discovered this gem of a gîte. Peace and tranquillity in an idyllic setting is something we have both longed for and we actually found all three in Le Pigeonnier.”
CN and RG, Kent, 2003

“This was everything we hoped it would be (and more!). Weather hot, house beautifully restored and view from terrace stunning. ”
F and AMcL, N Ireland, 2003

“A sensitively restored and comfortable house in a glorious setting has contributed to one of our best French holidays.”
A and GC, Nottingham, 2004

“We spent two fabulous weeks with our family, who have returned here for the last 5 years – and we can see why!”
B Family, New Zealand, 2005

“We have been here for 8 glorious weeks and have watched the seasons change from Summer to Autumn. Le Pigeonnier has been beyond all expectations. Our family and their partners have been to stay with us at various times, and we have all enjoyed Le Vert so much that we have already booked to come again next year.”
M and WR, N Ireland, 2005

“We enjoyed our meals sitting on the terrace and admiring the view. We very much appreciated the wealth of information and enjoyed visiting local markets and places of interest.”
P and JS, South Wales, 2006

“The central heating is superb and the log burner sheer indulgence.”
T and VC, Northampton, February 2007

“Over many years we have spent some of our best holidays ever at La Garenne. Each time we come we fear it will not live up to our fond memories. No chance of that!! Yet again a perfect holiday.”
R and GW, Oxford, 2007

“We were overwhelmed by Le Pigeonnier – it is less a gite than a home-from-home and has been decorated and equipped with an exceptional amount of taste and care … and that’s to say nothing of its exquisite setting. Our one regret is that we didn’t stay for longer.”
K Family, Warwickshire, 2007

“Spent a wonderful week here and thoroughly enjoyed exploring the Lot Valley. Le Pigeonnier is a beautifully restored home in a lovely part of the world. ”
I and AW, California, 2008

“Another perfect holiday – probably our best yet. Thanks for keeping your holiday homes so immaculate and, over the years, keeping them at such a high standard. ”
R and GW, Henley-on-Thames, 2008

“My brother was amazed at the view and how quiet and peaceful it was. He now understands why we love it and keep coming back. It is now the end of our fourth long holiday at La Garenne and we have relaxed and recharged the batteries in a wonderful setting ... the weather has been excellent and the autumnal colour of the vines and trees is beautiful. ”
R Family, N Ireland, 2008

“This has been our second visit to Le Pigeonnier and once again it has surpassed all our expectations. No matter how far we travel in France, this location is quite simply the best! Thanks once again for being such lovely hosts and for all the up-to-date information on local events.”
C Family, N Ireland, 2009

“As expected, our week in Le Pigeonnier has proved to be just as enjoyable as our first week in La Loge. In the evening we have been more than content to take our meal on the terace, watching the sun going down, listening to the wildlife and contemplating how life should be lived! ”
L-C Family, Hereford, 2009
