What makes La Grange Pepe a great holiday rental
Here are some recent customer reviews taken directly from the house book:
Two fantastic weeks again in your lovely home.
A fantastic 10 days in a gorgeous house – undoubtedly the loveliest accommodation we’ve ever stayed in in France! Restaurant recommendations in folder very much appreciated – the Belvedere (recently reopened as a tapas place) is a delight and Le 8 in Sainte Foy was such a treat.
Thank you so much – we loved staying at your beautiful barn. It was amazing – would love to return.
Thank you for having us in your beautiful home, we had a lovely stay and enjoyed ourselves so much.
Truly lovely time had by all. A little bit of August magic - great place, food, wine and experience. Thank you so much!
Suitability for:
Definitely one to please the Francophiles - this is a classic French combination of vineyards, countryside, medieval villages, chateaux and markets.
Anything to watch out for?
The boundary between La Grange and the friendly neighbour is defined for most of the property by a wall or hedge but there is a short stretch without. The two properties have separate driveways and do not overlook each other at all.
Why the Bordeaux region?
Food and wine, naturally! Plenty of opportunity for tasting and chateaux visits - St Emilion is close by. There's also a wide choice of activities available nearby including river canoeing, horse riding, cycling and walking. The region is also steeped in history and culture, we recommend strolling around one of the many historic villages, or a visit to the fascinating city of Bordeaux itself.
Character villa in an idyllic, peaceful location yet walking distance to the village & River Dordogne
Formerly the milking parlour of the original 19th century farm, the English owners have created a charming and vey relaxing holiday villa.
Pepe boasts original beams, high ceilings, traditional stone walls and a mix of classical furniture and modern equipment/appliances. It's a winning combination!
The property in fact looks relatively modest on first view but once you step inside it truly opens up to reveal a spacious, informal and convivial holiday home.

'Pepe' is situated in quiet surroundings on the outskirts of Pessac-sur-Dordogne. It's an easy level walk of 15 minutes to the village centre where there is a restaurant, tabac/epicerie and canoe hire. The villa is situated next to the original farm house (separately owned). The two properties are accessed via separate driveways. At Pepe you will be in relaxing surroundings amongst the vineyards, cornfields and gentle countryside of south west France. There's plenty of potential for days out too including Bergerac, Saint Emilion, Bordeaux and heading deeper into classic Dordogne territory.

Product: Amazing house. Lovely pool. Great location. Peaceful location, but just a few minutes walk down the lane to a great pop up restaurant ( there in summer) and another fantastic restaurant. House is a real home from home. Fantastic facilities and lovely lady that looked after the house for homeowners. Couldn't have asked for more.
