    Maison Balmelle is a beautifully renovated home which made the perfect stay. Eric and Catherine were so welcoming, the house was beautifully decorated and the pool and gardens so relaxing and peaceful. This was an unexpected find after a long day...

    This is the place you regret not staying a couple of nights longer. Catherine and Eric are devoted to making you feel comfortable. The house, de details, the atmosphere are incredible! Once you leave, you just want to find an occasion to go back.

    Quiet and beautifully run by Eric and Catherine who were lovely. Amazing big bedroom, small but perfectly formed swimming pool and great for our visits to Rocamadour and Sarlat.
