This was our best holiday in France. We have re-booked for next year and for a longer period so that says it all. We hope everyone has as good a time as we have, especially the weather, 2 weeks of high 20’s/mid 30’s.

Many of you will visit the charming medieval villages of Penne and Bruniquel. However, do take the time to go to Montricoux, a plainer village, but with its distinct character and boasting an extraordinary museum in the chateau devoted to the works of one Marcel Lenoir. A contemporary of Matisse and Picasso, this rather grumpy old man displayed a quite exceptional range of artistic styles as well as being a poet and expert ceramicist.

We have had a much needed rest over the last two weeks with warm weather mainly, great food and a variety of wines expecially Cahors. With temperatures of up to 36 degrees outside, the pool was obviously an essential part of our holiday. The cottage is well laid out and has all the essentials to make our stay comfortable. We will consider returning.

Cannot think of a better way to spend a honeymoon. Many thanks to Clare & Francis for setting up the Petite Maison for our French style wedding celebration. Our 4th visit to St Antonin, 3rd to Petite Maison which I think says it all. Great relaxation, great company and we will definitely be back. P.S. La Corniche is still wonderful for lunch.
Colin & Deborah Wilson
We particularly enjoy walking and were delighted to find several very good walks right on our doorstep – a good way to see the wildlife. Our weather was superb so we made the most of the swimming pool and sunbeds. Thank you for providing a perfect base and the welcome peace.
Harry & Jean Wardlaw
We have relaxed and enjoyed our week in this delightful cottage. We celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary with an excellent meal at Le Festin de Babette in St Antonin which we can recommend.
Christine & Michael
We have appreciated the peace and quiet of this lovely house in its idyllic surroundings and we have certainly slept very well.
Nigel & shona
Clare & Francis it was great to see you both again and many thanks from us both.You asked what we were going to do for the week on our arrival and I said ‘B….. all’ which we achieved and had a great time chilling out.While it may seem a bit rude it is just the best place to chill out and achieve that. Thanks again from Nigel and Shona hope to see you again soon and keep up the good work.

Can’t believe three weeks are over already. We have had a wonderful holiday and can’t think of any words to describe it that haven’t already been used. We made many walks using the following guideboods. Les Sentiers des Vagabonds which were well marked and easy to follow. 15 Circuits autour de St Antonin (available at the Tourist Office) all well marked and many, many more. We hope we walk this way again.

La Petite Maison has one problem – it’s so idyllic! So much so that we had trouble dragging ourselves away from its charm and tranquility to visit all the places we intended! We’ve had a very relaxed and comfortable week at La Petite Maison – it’s beautifully equipped and furnished – and Clare and Francis have been most welcoming and helpful – thank you! One week is certainly not enough and we hope to be back sometime.

This is our 4th time in the region and we nvever tire of the scenery, villages, towns and food. La Petite Maison is without doubt the best accommodation we have experienced in France and its setting and facilities would take an awful lot of beating. ‘tarntotalcalm’ is a perfect name for their website! We may not have seen as many birds and aninmals as some but we have seen (and heard) the Golden Oriels, many butterflies, deer, hare etc. Clare & Francis, our wonderful hosts, always happy to to help and advise and have a chat but very aware of the privacy of their guests. We wish them continued success.
