Further details for this vacation rental in Verteillac, France

If you like peaceful countryside, good food and wine and bustling French markets, start here! Angouleme, Brantome, Cognac, Perigeux and all the great wine-growing areas around Bordeaux (of which St Emilion is probably the most attractive) are easy to reach by car.

The Atlantic coast is less than 2 hours drive away; and the caves of the Dordogne are about an hour and a half away -a marvellous trip for a rainy day. Also within easy reach there are plenty of tennis courts, and rivers and lakes to swim or fish or boat in.

Golf: There is a 9 hole golf course in an attractive leisure complex about 15 minutes away which also has tennis courts and a swimming pool. Perigueux (40 minutes) and Cognac (50 minutes) also have very good 18 hole courses.

Other Activities: Golf, tennis, canoeing (on the river Dronne)

Having used other rental properties in France for over ten years, yours was the best equipped, organised and laid out that we have ever stayed in. We have all decided that we would like to return next year.....Your house was perfect. We liked everything about it; its beautiful setting, the spacious pool, plenty of room to play boule and croquet or to find a quiet place to read.

The perfect family holiday

Review Submitted: October 17, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We stayed at La Cotte in the summer of 2009, with our three grown-up children and their families, including a toddler and a baby. The house was just beautiful - very welcoming and well-kept: it has a lovely courtyard effect where we had all our lunches and dinners, with several barbeque options available. The house felt very much like a home from home, with lots of the owners' games and handy things that they seemed quite happy for us to use, and after two weeks we could almost believe we lived there ourselves! The owners couldn't have been more helpful, buying a new paddling pool specailly as we had our grandchildern with us, and posting back to us something we left behind. The pool is a good size and beautiful temperature, and well protected with a fence aorund it and self-closing gate, so we didn't have to worry about that. There were bikes, pool toys and table tennis in the barn to keep us amused, so we spent a lot of time at the house. It is very pretty, has a huge kitchen, very comfortable living room and plenty of good bedrooms. And the mulberries were wonderful! We would recommend it to anyone, but especially to familes with children.

La Cotte, August 2009

Peteandgeorge London
Review Submitted: September 7, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
La Cotte is a family holiday gem. We have now been for the last 2 years and fully expect to return again next year. The house is cosy, extremely well equipped, particularly in the kitchen with everything that you can imagine needing for a family holiday with young children. The surrounding countryside is heaven on earth and the only noise you are likely to hear is the occasional tractor tootling from field to field. There is absolutely nothing better than sitting in the very pretty courtyard garden(pictured), eating lunch and soaking up the sunshine.

The pool is also brilliantly set just far enough away from the house and with a sufficiently sturdy fence to ensure that one does not have to think about it as a child hazard.

The local village has all the basics covered with a really good baker and butcher and other slightly less essential things like a riding school.

Idyllic haven of peace and tranquility

We have been going to La Cotte every year since the year 2000, so I think that says it all! This year is no different and we can't wait to return for our annual two weeks of total relaxation, barbeques and totalling chilling out in the most beautiful of settings. La Cotte is a beautifully restored and immaculate farmhouse, complete with traditional beams, tastefully furnished and with every possible piece of equipment and facilitiy you could want. The large and beautiful fenced pool with its trees and flowers overlooks a valley and is the perfect place to relax. There are even bikes for the more energetic!
La Cotte is an absolute gem in the most beautiful countryside and we feel privileged to have discovered it.

Luxurious bolt hole for a relaxing break.

Willers Coleshill Bucks UK
Review Submitted: May 26, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2007
Set in its own grounds overlooked by nobody with 5 bedrooms surrounding the courtyard we had a great holiday in La Cotte as it had everything we needed for one week on our own and one with friends.

As far as equipment goes the property has a very secluded but large pool area.

With beautiful uninterrupted views across the farm land sitting here having stocked up at the local markets with good food and wine is as tough as it gets!

With the nearest village being approximately 10 minutes away by car the ony draw back is that you can get lost before your bearings settle down!

Good catering facilities, fridges and freezers make the trips to the supermarket less numerous that other places that we have stayed.

As far as things to do the owner is a member of a nearby golf club and there are some adequate golf clubs provided should you wish to play or just visit the tennis courts and bar for a change.

All in all with the addition last year of sattellite TV and Broadband we will be going back again!!
