A delightful garden for a large party of friends. Our hosts were so gracious and a good time was had by all. The rooms are comfortable and the château is oh so charming, located in the center of all that makes the Dordogne a favorite travel destination

My wife and I stayed here two nights in October so we could take a class at the cooking school. Our large room overlooked the beautiful grounds and was very clean and comfortable. The hosts were very gracious and made us feel right at home. The breakfast was superb with many choices. We would definitely stay here again.

We arrived at Le Chevrefeuille for a two night stay with the express purpose of attending their cooking school and visiting Font du Gaume which is located just 5 minutes away. We arrived at their rural property with multiple buildings and we were oriented by owner Sarah who with her husband Ian moved to the area from England about 16 years ago. They have called this home and raised their children in this beautiful setting and developed the property to include a wonderful cooking school as well as apartments to accommodate larger group and family stays. We were shown to our room which was just charming with beautiful quilts, a lovely bathroom and a wonderfully comfortable bed. It was spotlessly clean. There was space in another area to keep refrigerated items and an honor bar in the breakfast room. The property also has a swimming pool. The cooking school is conducted outdoors in a covered area with multiple workstations and a long dining table. We loved the school which included a trip to the St. Cyprien market with expert guidance from Ian. We spent the entire day preparing courses with dining interspersed. It covered both lunch and dinner for us. The next morning we arose early for breakfast and headed directly to Font du Gaume to tour the cave. We so enjoyed our stay and I would recommend it for families traveling with children as well as couples. …

The cooking class at Chevrefeuille was a high point of our three weeks in France. Ian took us to the ancient market (continuously running since the 14th century!) in Le Bugue and explained the intricacies of the varieties of veggies and meats we saw in the stalls, and we brought back ingredients to prepare under his supervision and funny observations. After preparing each course we got to sit and enjoy it with good wine and conversation with our fellow travelers, and learned so much about the food and the Dordogne area. Please make this a definite stop if you're in the area -- it's completely worth it, and really fun.

We stayed in Passiflore gite for a week in August with our 2 children. La Chevrefeuille is such a beautifully calm and quiet spot in a great location. We enjoyed a day canoeing on the Dordogne, river beach trips, visiting Bournat and the local food markets during our stay and a couple of afternoons relaxing by the pool. The children loved having the guinea pigs out for cuddles (they are very much missed!) and exploring the grounds. The swings were a bonus and it felt a very safe place to be. Sarah was incredibly helpful and accommodating. It really made our holiday in France. I recommend a trip to Creperie L’ Abreuvoir in Le Bugue!

We had a wonderful 10 day stay at Le Chevrefeuille. We stayed 7 nights in The Passiflore gite and 3 nights b&b in the Family room and Family Suite. The gite was fantastic for our family as it had all the conveniences we needed and the terrace led on to the garden and pool. But it was also lovely to stay in the b&b, which had beautiful rooms (family suite was especially lovely), a tasty breakfast and the chance to chat with other guests at breakfast. The gites and house are surrounded by lovely gardens and a courtyard. The pool is fantastic and safely surrounded by a gate. The play room was a big hit with our girls, as were the pets. It felt so safe, we were able to relax, while our 5 year old twins enjoyed some real independence playing with new friends. The other guests were a nice mixture of families, and couples from UK, France, America and elsewhere. Sara, Ian and their kids were amazing hosts. Their daughter was so patient with our daughters who ‘helped’ her clean out the pets and do other jobs around the place. When we weren’t relaxing by the pool, we had a great time canoeing, horse riding (next door), visiting caves and a typically French prehistoric outside attraction/ museum, which the girls loved. There were some lovely family friendly French restaurants nearby. We also had a great time at the night market in Audrix with the tasty food, music and fun atmosphere. We had such a lovely stay. Would thoroughly recommend.…

We found this place through our agent with Ciao Bambino. The price seemed too good to be true but this is a gem of a hotel. Our kids needed to unwind after a day of site seeing and this place had everything we needed to relax and unwind. Sarah is lovely and provided a great breakfast every morning. Unfortunately they don’t serve dinner anymore but they did give us recommendations for nearby restaurants.

We had a wonderfully relaxing time here at Le Chevrefeuille. Sara, Ian and their lovely children made us feel very welcome and were always around if we needed them. The setting is stunning, and it's very quiet in a good way. Perfect spot if you have small children, lots to do at the house, they will never be bored, tons of safe space to run around in. I highly recommend doing the half day family cooking course, it was great fun and something different. Close to many lovely towns and castles. I would highly recommend Le Chevrefeuille.

Our first trip to this area, and we wanted to find out why Bruno,( Chief of Police series) likes this part of France so much. Now we know. Everyone you meet is helpful and friendly. And none more than the hosts here. We decided to take a cooking class when planning the trip, and happened upon their site. The reviews were very good, but sometimes they can be misleading. However.... THIS PLACE IS GREAT :-) Ian and Sara have created a very special spot to spend time in the Dordogne. The market tour as part of the cooking class was a real highlight, with Ian's thorough explanations about duck, cheese and fois gras. His relationship with the vendors in the market, since he has lived here for 16 years, made the experience very special. The class itself was entertaining and enjoyable. A bit of friendly competition and lots of laughter was included along with good wines, and an excellent menu. I always feel if I pick up one great new technique in a cooking class it was a good value, and in this one we picked up several. The class was light hearted and fun but structured enough to have real value for the amateur chef. The luscious lunch we prepared was tasty and filling, thus no dinner that night was wanted. As to the B&B, it was clean, quiet and comfortable, with a great breakfast. While the self catering units each have a kitchen, there was a fridge and some kitchen facilities available in a separate lounge area for the bedroom units as well, and a washing machine available at a small charge. The location is not difficult to find, even though very rural, and we stayed two nights but wish we had stayed there longer, as the many attractions of the area are much closer to Pechboutier than Sarlat. Also the setting is peaceful and quiet , which is nice after a busy day touring the region, lush with caves and castles. We have already decided we will be back in the future for another class....…

I think the mark of a good holiday is how sad you are to leave and we were all certainly sad to be saying goodbye to Sara and Ian at the end of our 5 night stay. Where to start? Firstly, Sara and Ian were wonderful hosts and couldn't have done more for us. Sara's fantastic advice on the local area helped us plan our stay perfectly and even allowed us to change our plans on the hop (which is essential with a 4 year old in tow!) and even though he was busy teaching almost every day, Ian always made time to say good morning and catch up on our plans and most recent adventures. The meal and wine which greeted us on arrival were exactly what we needed after a day of arduous travelling. The buffet breakfast was also great with loads of options and plenty of delicious french bread and pastries. Breakfast was always a highlight as Sara would come in to chat about our plans and make recommendations and the big table meant we spent most mornings catching up with the other guests to get their recommendations too. Finally, there was so much at Le Chevrefeuille to keep our daughter entertained, from the guinea pigs and rabbits to the swimming pool and petanque. We didn't even get round to having a go on the bikes until the last day. We would love to come back one day and do all the things we missed this time round . Highly recommended…
