Wonderful property, hosts and location!

Beautiful property, stone and beams inside, very rustic, equiped with everything you could need including BBQ and very comfy bed! Wonderful views whichever way you looked, a lovely pond where I saw fish, frogs and water snakes! The owners Sarah and Tim are fantastic! Such lovely friendly people with a wealth of local knowledge! (Including advising us of the best way to get to the rugby in Bordeaux!) I must also mention Tia, their rescue dog who we became very fond of! Such a well behaved friendy girl! Lots of nice places to visit a short car journey away! Cute villages, towns and Chateauxs to go wine tasting! 🍷🍷🌞🌞 We had an amazing time! Would definitely recommend! 🙂🙂🙂

La Dordogne ça vous gagne !

Super cottage et belle nature pour se ressourcer au calme. La piscine à proximité est géniale pour pouvoir se rafraîchir (pendant les journées les plus chaudes) ainsi que pour se délasser tous les jours. Dans le logement, tout est à disposition. Pour d'éventuelles requêtes Sarah et Tim sont très disponible et réactifs. Ils sont d'ailleurs très agréables et serviables, tout en sachant rester discrets.

Relaxing Rural Gite

Trois Maisons provided spotless,comfortable accommodation in lovely old farm buildings. Sarah and Tim made sure we had everything we needed and lots delicious tomatoes and produce from their garden. They have created wonderful grounds with shady trees/sitting areas and pool with plenty of sun loungers . We totally relaxed sitting next to the huge pond full of lillies and frogs and enjoyed exploring nearby by foot and on the bikes. We enjoyed the chickens, ducks and all the wildlife and of course fell in love their great dog Tia. A very French country holiday with the added bonus of a kettle!

Gite de Sandra et Tim

Environnement magnifique, bien entretenu et très calme. Gîte agréable et propre avec les nécessités de base et un petit plus :) Hôtesse et hôte très sympathiques et attentionnés. Traitement gentille et respectueux des animaux, ils y vivent bien ! Conseils: *Les directions vers l'emplacement pourraient être plus précises (Douville au lieu de Villamblard ?) Alors c'est plus facile à trouver. *Placer un 2iéme panneau en bois avec : "Trois Maison" de l'autre côté de la rue (avec couleur vive!) afin que les visiteurs venant de l'autre côté puissent bien le voir. * Quelques moustiquaires pour ceux qui en ont besoin. Sinon, un endroit merveilleux, fortement recommandé!

un séjour superbe

Cinq jours d'immersion dans un écrin de verdure! Un gîte adorable, intime, avec son petit jardin privé, et tout le confort. Tout autour une nature florissante, un jardin de goût façonné par Sarah et Tim! Les animaux, libres, sont une compagnie douce et agréable. Sarah et Tim ont été aux petits soins pour nous, et sont des hôtes adorables, et délicats. La piscine a fait la joie de notre fils de 8 ans!! Nul besoin de se précipiter dans les visites touristiques, tout le calme et le plaisir sont sur place! A réserver sans hésitation! Nous y retournerons, c'est certain!

A lovely location

Great property with rustic charm and lots of outdoor space for kids and places to perch in the evening to watch the sun set. The pool was very welcome. Rural yet well placed for Bergerac, Perigueux and the Dordogne valley. Sarah and Tim were great hosts.

Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Welcoming hosts, lovely gites and relaxing pool all set in a stunning rural setting. A great escape from the daily grind and to realise how life should be lived. Only downside was having to leave!!!

A really lovely place to relax and enjoy the surrounding areas. Lots of places to visit but just as nice to stay put and have fun by the pool. Tim and Sarah are lovely hosts and very welcoming. Will definately be visiting again!!

Lovingly restored Gites

This is the 4th year in a row I have visited Trois Maisons. I have travelled with family both Young a old. Sarah & Tim have put their hearts into their gites and it shows. They are also great hosts and will do everything they can to ensure you enjoy your stay. Villamblard is remote but easily accessible by car with many interesting places to visit. The cottages are comfortable and well equipped with everything you need for your self catering stay, with home grown produce available too. There’s also lots do on the farm plus a very welcoming pool.

Petit coin de paradis

Ecrin de verdure tenu par les sympathiques Tim et Sarah. Les chevaux, anes, chien, piscine et jeux a disposition ont seduit les enfants. Gite rustique et charmant a une heure max. de tous les beaux sites de Dordogne.

Un petit paradis...

Gîte au calme, entouré d'un tres beau jardin agrementé d'une petite marre pour le côté bucolique. Les animaux, poules, canard, âne, chevaux... rythment la vie paisible de ce charmant endroit. Les propriétaires sont discrets et tres chaleureux à la fois. Ils vous font profiter avec plaisir des trésors de leur potager, ce qui donne un petit goût d'authentique au séjour. Merci à Sarah et Tim pour leur accueil ! Stephanie, Ludovic et Mathilde

Great surroundings. We had everything we needed in School House which was very clean and well maintained. Sarah and Tim were very hospitable and very approachable if we needed anything. The pizza evening was very enjoyable.

Un lieu et des hôtes charmants. Un environnement paisible et accueillant.

Des espaces extérieurs et intérieurs adaptés à la détente la plus complète. Beaucoup de fleurs et d'oiseaux. La description est absolument fidèle à la réalité. Les locaux sont propres et bien entretenus. Nous y reviendrons avec plaisir. Une partie du Périgord peut-être moins connue mais riche d'histoire et de beaux monuments peu fréquentés..

About the host

Hosted by sarah austin

Host profile image
We moved to France in 2002, from the South of England. Sarah had a background working with animals, especially horses, Tim had his own groundworks company. We met only 18 months before moving here,we decided to take the plunge, neither of us speaking french! We have learnt as we have gone along, taught by our neighbours, with many a laugh at our expense. We have learnt enough french to run our own carpentry business in the area, doing traditional oak work. We were married in our village in 2005, much to the delight of all the locals, who supplied all the liquids necessary, good and bad!!

Why they chose this property

We are country people and when we found Les Trois Maisons,with its fantastic view and large farmhouse kitchen we knew that it was for us - we loved the idea of renovating 3 ruins and a very smelly house! It was a long hard slog over 5 years, doing all the work ourselves, but now as all our guests tell us, it is a wonderful property in a beautiful situation. We have been adopted by our local agricultural community, which we participate in and gives us a very enjoyable lifestyle.

What makes this property unique

we enjoy the fine weather of SW France and the agricultural ambiance, walk our dogs regularly through the country lanes and woods, where we gather mushrooms and chestnuts in good french style. Although we are rural, the small local village is convenient, with all facilities, it can be reached on foot, by bicycle, and occasionally by car if you must!
