Welcome to *Taire du Grel, Gites de Vacances*

LES HIRONDELLES GITE...
The peaceful, one storey gîte 'Les Hirondelles' is surrounded by lawns and fruit trees, with views of the forest covered valley. The wood clad building was inspired by the old tobacco barns in the region, and is closely situated to the pool and play area. Its terrace overlooks the orchard, with garden furniture and a BBQ, with lawns beyond for relaxing, playing and picnicking.

Enter from the terrace through patio doors into a large kitchen / diner / lounge. The open space has a bright and fresh atmosphere, while the beams and wood-burning stove make it cosy for a winter getaway.

The hallway leads to...
A tiled bathroom with shower, sink and WC.
A twin bedroom (2 beds 90x190).
A double bedroom (1 bed 140x190).
A double bedroom (1 bed 140x190) with an attached bathroom (shower, sink and toilet). The patio doors from this bedroom also lead to the terrace.

Excellent Gite with large rooms and great facilities
There were 4 of us sharing this gite on a motorcycling holiday in April. The gite is ideally situated to explore the main attractions in the area and we were made to feel very welcome by the owners and can recommend this for a large family or two families sharing the accommodation. Sarlet is only a short distance away as is Domme and with Carnac close by there is a wealth of cafe's and restaurants on offer as well as the convenience of a supermarket, fuel station and various other shops. If you want to just chill out or explore it is a great place to be.

Best location 👍
Week-end en famille, au pont de l’Ascension. Visites de Domme, Sarlat, divers maisons troglodytes, Grottes et autre promenades dans les villages alentours. Dégustation de bons produits……du terroir périgourdin. Il a fait très beau pendant ces quatre jours et il y avait beaucoup de monde à se promener….. pour le premier week-end de mai. Il ne faut pas oublier, bien sûr, ben avec qui le Séjour prend une autre dimension…Toutes les attentions sont portées dans cette location. C’était vraiment super, 👍

Superbe domaine, entouré de verdure. Tout y est! La piscine, les jeux qui vont avec...il y avait même un filet pour jouer au volley dans l'eau! A l'extérieur, badminton, ping pong, trampoline... Balade en canoë sur la Dordogne, possible, sur demande au propriétaire... Parfait! Bref beaux paysages, tranquillité assurée dans une région qui vaut le détour. Informations données aux vacanciers, plus que complète. Merci pour ce beau séjour passé trop vite. On en ressort bien détendus.
