Gîte de l'Eveil ***, a unique natural setting, 5 km from Sarlat

The Eveil gîte is based on conviviality and a family welcome.
It is located in the heart of the Périgord Noir near Sarlat on a property of half a hectare, open to the forest not overlooked. It is 1.5kms from the Dordogne river and 800m from the cycle path.

It offers an exceptional setting with a typical stone dwelling of the region with spacious and well-equipped rooms.
The primary qualities of this warm vacation rental are space and nature. You will feel like you are living both inside and outside thanks to the several outdoor spaces in the garden and on the terrace.

The gîte de l'Eveil (see page Fa Ce Book) is a typical Périgord dovecote. It was renovated in 2019, to offer you modern and authentic comfort.

It is classified 3* and ideally accommodates 2 people with a surface area of 75m2, and an independent entrance.
On the first floor, the open-plan living space offers a large cozy living room with TV, wifi, and reading area, as well as a fully equipped kitchen (hood, oven, microwave, kettle, Senseo coffee machine). A laundry room, a shower room and separate toilets complete the living space, as well as a bedroom overlooking the fig tree which brings a green and vegetal freshness.

The furniture is of high quality. Our solid wood furniture (Scandinavian rooms and furniture) is FSC certified, for better forest management. Your pitch includes several private outdoor spaces.
A comfortable covered terrace with the dining and barbecue area as well as relax armchairs for your relaxation. And an enclosed garden, with its deckchairs and its unobstructed view of more than 500m2 in a calm and peaceful environment.

The cottage has its private secure parking space with remote control for entrances and exits.

It is 800m from shops: bakery, butcher, doctor's office, bar, restaurants, pharmacy.

The cottage is made to offer you a breath of fresh air, far from the urban tumult or your daily life in a change of scenery and escape.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom and a dining area.

Séjour parfait !

Le gîte, spacieux et confortable, garde une fraîcheur très appréciable, par grandes chaleurs estivales. La maison, entourée de grands arbres, est dans un environnement calme et reposant. Les propriétaires, qui habitent sur place, sont aimables et attentifs, tout en restant très discrets. Cette location offre toutes les conditions pour un beau séjour dans le Périgord Noir enchanteur.

Calme, propre, spacieux et bien situé

On a apprécié : Le professionnalisme de la gérante Le calme Le poulailler ( les enfants aiment toujours la présence d'animaux) La situation géographique La possibilité de se baigner à 5 min en voiture ( 30 min à pied, avec enfants ) Les murs épais qui protègent de la canicule La douche fonctionelle Les commodes et la penderie pour ranger les vêtements. Points de vigilance : un été à moustique comme cet été ( août 2023), prévoyez d'emmener une grosse bougie à la citronnelle, du répulsif à moustique pour vous enduire... et de la crème apaisante

Location très agréable au calme

Propriétaire sympathique location bien situé au calme petit plus non négligeable possibilité d'avoir du pain ou pizza à notre arrivée proposé par les propriétaires. Choses à améliorer éventuellement d'avoir des torchons pour essuyer la vaisselles et une éponge supplémentaires et chiffon pour nettoyer salle d'eau et WC pour le départ aurait été un plus.la literie est suffisante cuisine et salle bien équipée. Si l'occasion se représente nous reviendrons dans problème.
