4 Bedroom House in Brantome

France Holiday Rental Facilities 
"I write to you with such pleasure to thank you for the fantastic holiday we have recently had in your beautiful house. The accommodation was simply wonderful, comfortable, tastefully furnished and very well equiped. The kids (and Chip, our terrier) had a fabulous time and loved playing with the dolphin in the pool! The location was everything you promised it would be and has served to only whet our appetite to visit again. We can not express enough our sincere thanks for making the holiday so effort free. We hope you will have availability for our next France holiday as there is still more for us to discover in the Dordogne region. Best, BJ. BJCaz, Manchester. Sept 01, 2008
