The Experience

Annie’s simple stone 17th-century house is part of the fabric of the hamlet, clustered on a hilltop under the gaze of the 13th-century castle.  Your warm, unobtrusive host gives you an apartment with its own entrance and plunge pool to share. Enjoy your morning coffee in a private sun-filled courtyard, then stone stairs lead to a tiny terrace with views, off which the studio lies, airy and light. There’s a kitchen tucked behind a pretty screen, dining table, open shelves stacked with brocante finds and two comfy chairs. Behind heavy linen curtains is the bedroom space, romantic and spacious. A chandelier hangs from a rough-hewn beam, and a new bathroom adjoins: pale limestone tiles, limed beams, a big shower and a bath. All is understated and suffused with light. Blissfully quiet too. Imagine sitting on the terrace and watching the hot-air balloons drift through the valley, or curling up and staying put on a wintery night. Parking is tucked into the village wall, so you can pop into lovely unspoilt Daglan for shops, market and restaurant ‘Le Petit Paris.’ Or stroll down to the village along the river – a lovely 40-minute walk.

Reviews

I stayed almost two weeks and during that time became familiar with the village and some of the residents. The apartment at Tourterelles is elegant, spacious and dignified. Its location within the village is tranquil. There is a plethora of attractions in the surrounding countryside sufficient to interest most people. Annie, is an extraordinarily interesting person who went to no end of trouble to ensure that my experience was as memorable as it was enjoyable.

A return visit to this charming gite high on a sunny hill above Daglan. Annie has created a cosy and comfortable ambiance in this charming house well positioned for peace and quiet away from all the cares of the modern world. Located near all the ‘must see’ sites of the Perigord Noir it’s a great spot for exploration. Beautiful bed, top class linen, a generously sized en-suite and a well equipped kitchen all put together with impeccable taste and no pretension add to the experience. An outdoor pool provides welcome relief on those hot days..check it out and enjoy the experience.

We had a wonderful week in Annie's gorgeous apartment. Annie was a warm and friendly host, extremely generous with her impressive knowledge of the area and its attractions. The apartment is beautiful, with all the facilities we could desire for an idyllic week in this wonderful part of the world. The bathroom, the lovely little kitchen nook and the sleeping area are delightful - and the bed, with its antique French linen, fat pillows and great mattress was a dream. The pretty courtyards and pool were wonderful to return to for an evening drink or a cool dip at the end of the day.

Stephanie, Sydney

What a gem…A Perfect little apartment for two in one of the most beautiful regions of France. The apartment itself is lovely, equipped with everything you need for a pleasant and relaxing stay, it is very comfortable and beautifully dressed. Perched on top of the hillside in a sweet little Hamlet called Peyruzel in a lovely calm and serene environment with beautiful views. The location of this property is perfect. You are within minutes of some of the most beautiful and spectacular sights of the Dordogne. We loved our stay so much that we bought a property in the neighbouring village!

Samantha & Clive, United Kingdom

We had a perfect 2 weeks in Annie’s lovely apartment . Ideally situated and perfect for visiting all the sites and gorgeous towns and villages. Plenty of walking routes and cycling routes through the sunflower fields. Annie is just the most warm and generous host and clearly passionate about her little slice of the Dordogne. I am sure we will be back …

Amanda, Surbiton

Fabulous apartment with super hosting. Beautifully silent with an amazing starry sky by night and breathtaking views by day from the terrace.

Jenni, Paris

Thank you for a wonderful week's stay. Beautiful little apartment, beautiful little hamlet, such a thoughtful host. We've so much enjoyed exploring this lovely region! Nothing short of heavenly!

Jackie, Balingup

We had a fabulous week at Le Peyruzel. It’s a beautiful , quiet village, and Annie’s cottage was perfect . We enjoyed long walks at Monpazier and Rocamadour, canoeing on the Dordogne from Vitrac, moules frites night at the Chien Vert in Besse, the night market in Daglan, and visiting the gardens at Eyrignac and Marqueyssac. It was great to come back to Le Peyruzel after a day out and have a dip in the plunge pool. Annie was a wonderful host, and gave us some great tips on things to do - we loved our stay at Le Peyruzel!

Graham, Manchester

Annie is very friendly, and made us felt some welcome to her place. All the local tips from her were gratefully received. We still think of the restaurant that does all you can eat mussels in Besse on Thursday nights. Once again a big thank you , Annie! MY and GRAHAM

MY, Manchester

We had a most enjoyable week in this wonderful part of France. Thank you Annie so much for your warmth and quiet attentiveness which totally enhanced our stay in your delightful apartment and surroundings

Graham and Rhona, London

Annie must surely be the kindest and most helpful host in the whole of Sawdays! She seemed to know exactly the sort of places we would want to visit, and when we didn't want to leave her beautiful cottage (or rather the coolness of her rain-filled plunge pool; we were there when the temperature was in the high 30's!) we were made to feel completely at home. The Dordogne is beautiful, the crowds are avoidable and Les Tourterelles is definitely the place to stay!

Paul and Jill, WOODBRIDGE

Les Tourterelles is the most delightful place to spend a week or two to get away from it all. Annie has made the apartment so beautiful, with lots of careful little touches. The bed is super comfortable and the bathroom is huge. There is so much to do and see in the area, but the best bit is coming back in the evening! Annie herself could not have been more helpful and friendly.

Rebecca, Windsor

If you would like to pretend that you are living in a beautiful stone house, in a tiny village, away from the tourists (but still so close to everything), then Les Tourterelles is the perfect spot for you. What Annie has created is a place that is effortlessly stylish, comfortable and homely. We loved the drive 'home' each afternoon to the petite hilltop hamlet (Le Peyrusal), where you will hear nothing but the birds above and bees buzzing in the garden. This is a true provencal experience in the Dordogne and Annie is the warmest (unobtrusive) host, who made our time here feel extra special. x

Courtenay and Dave, Brisbane

Annie is the perfect hostess with the mostest. Could not do enough for us on our stay with her. Always asking if we had been here or there and giving great advice on the local attractions. As we were arriving later in the day she booked dinner at an amazing restaurant in Daglan for us that night. Spent many evenings having aperitifs before dinner with her. Accommodation was first class with everything there that you needed for a relaxing stay, including condiments, vegetables & fruit from her garden and use of her swimming pool. We highly recommend staying here and she is a wonderful host.

Stewart & Roselee, Adelaide South Australia

We arrived to find a true piece of heaven. The cottage is simply charming and every detail is absolute perfection. For me it was amazing to arrive and find the cottage immaculate and spotless - I couldn't have asked for more. Our host was excellent 100% available but not intrusive. I particularly enjoyed waking up to the sunshine peering through the shutters and the sound of the cockerels echoing in the hamlet. We enjoyed relaxing walks and found plenty to keep us amused in the area. There are many attractions to suit all and great restaurants serving local cuisine. Thank you Annie.

Vicky, Gravesend

Annie was the perfect host. Her help and advice was invaluable, even from before we left home right to when we left to continue our journey! We had a thoroughly enjoyable, interesting and restful stay in Annie's beautiful home. The apartment is so well equipped and the beds so comfortable. The apartment is in an ideal location for visiting so many attractions in this beautiful part of the Dordogne. Merci beaucoup Annie!

Joyce, Glasgow

Les Tourterelles is a perfect base from which to explore the Dordogne’s medieval villages, vineyards, markets, chateaux and gardens. Distances are never far and the roads are stress-free. We found long woodland walks and paddled our canoe with dragonflies for company. We would never have found the local farmer’s homemade bread, or the magical night market at Bouzic without Annie’s advice. Nor would we have eaten at such wonderful restaurants. Such a spacious, comfortable and restful place to be, in a very friendly hamlet.

Judy

Annie’s apartment in the tiny hamlet of Le Peruyzel is a great place from which to explore the area where distances are never far. Annie offered great advice so we were able to buy farm-made organic bread and book wonderful restaurants. Over 2 weeks, we explored medieval villages and towns, canoed the Dordogne, saw walnut oil being pressed and visited markets including a fabulous night market at Bouzic . We saw every garden in the area open to the public as well as seeking out vineyards and sampling Bergerac wines. All from a very comfortable studio with a welcome natural plunge pool.

Judy

Annie is a perfect hostess, full of knowledge about the area, and concerned to make your stay really comfortable. The rain-water plunge pool is a lovely idea, fresh water with no chemicals and a life-saver on really hot days. The bed is very comfortable and the bathroom truly luxurious. This part of the Dordogne is full of interesting places to visit, and is so green and heavily wooded, it is delightful to drive around. Annie's house is very near the Dordogne river itself, with boat trips and so many chateaux to visit. And she knows the best places to eat!

Local points of interest from Annie Taylor

  • Le Peyruzel is a beautiful, charming, very authentic Village Perigourdin. Perched high on a hilltop bathed in sunshine, it overlooks wooded slopes once covered in vines. The Ceou Valley with miles of cycling tracks and its pristine river is nestled below.
  • Many French people live full time in the village just as they have done for centuries. You'll find a working farm, walnut plantations, truffiers, acres of sunflower fields & poppies bordering the short drive down to the very pretty village of Daglan below.
  • Dordogne- Beautiful, a perfect climate, 1001 Chateaux, Vineyards &Restaurants. Dome is 5 mins, 20 mins to Sarlat the jewel in the French Medieval Crown. Beynac and La Roque Gageac 15 mins along the river, dozens of beautiful towns and villages close by.
  • Pamper yourself on your holiday- A new, King, superbly comfortable bed with French Linen dried in the sunshine. A choice of real Australian wool or synthetic pillows. A Huge bathroom with lots of fresh fluffy Bath towels, and a lovely big Bath with a view.
  • There are lively markets every day just minutes away, casual restaurants where a 3 course lunch is so good for 12-15 Euros. A Michelin starred restaurant just down the hill (reserve a table), or enjoy an aperitif, cheese or glass of wine in the garden.
  • Les Tourterelles is a sublime refuge with Cicadas, birdsong,lovely clean air, a pure fresh rain water pool. Perfectly situated in a sleepy village full of charming French locals and a few foreigners who, like us spend most of the year in this special place
