Welcome to Poolside Farmhouses and Cottages We offer self catering quality holiday homes, all with swimming pools, sleeping 2-18 +, in superb locations, some hidden away in the countryside, but all within easy reach of the delightful bastide, medieval market towns and villages, fairy-tale chateaux, prehistoric caves and sleepy, meandering rivers of the Dordogne and Lot departments in South West France.
We are a reputable company, long established and our range of exclusive properties are especially selected for your family holiday enjoyment in a tranquil and safe environment.
We live and work in the region and all our properties are personally inspected regularly to ensure high standards of quality are maintained. We know all our owners well and offer you, our guests, a very personal service to ensure your holiday is memorable.
Our main towns are Sarlat, Gourdon, Domme, Cahors and Bergerac, attractive medieval towns full of charm and character with colourful markets once or twice a week. Close by are many of France’s treasures: the chateaux of Castelnaud, Milandes, Marqueyssac and Beynac, the caves of La Grotte de Lascaux (famous for its prehistoric paintings), the picturesque village of La Roque-Gageac and the amazing hillside town of Rocamadour (second most visited site in France).
Canoeing down one of the most beautiful rivers in France, La Dordogne, is an experience not to be missed. There are fantastic lakes for swimming / boating (plan d’eau) in abundance, golf courses, and a myriad of attractions all over these valleys.
Nearest airports are as follows:
John & Diana Coulson
Bergerac: The closest to most of our houses and probably the most useful at present. Ryanair and Flybe fly from a large number of airports in England, some in Ireland and Scotland. See their own websites.
Brive (Dordogne): A new airport opened up this season. At present City Jet fly to and from London City airport and from MAY 2011, Jet2 will be flying into Brive from Manchester. We think this airport will gradually become much larger with more airlines using, it making access to the Dordogne so very easy.
Limoges: A good airport serviced by Ryanair and flying from a few airports in England, details on their website. A 2 hour drive on the A20 to the Dordogne.
Toulouse: The best airport for our houses in the southern Lot department ie. Cahors and surrounding villages and serviced by BA and Easyjet. An easy drive on the motorway to Cahors, approximately 1 1/2 hours.
