Testimonials

"The sense of the surreal persisted as I was led into the most beautiful bedroom I have ever stayed in. The shutters were thrown back and the sound of rushing water filled the room. There were no other houses in sight, only the forest opposite, with the glimpse of an old stone chapel on the crest of the hill……. Over the few days I was in the Dordogne, I decided it offered more than any other region I had visited in France… the highlight was staying in the magical Chateau la Lindeau which made me feel, for a few days, like a princess."

"It was such a great experience meeting you and what a wonderful idea to invite friends for an Easter champagne breakfast!! Otto and I really enjoyed it and we will have your great spirit, your lovely table, the chateau at the river and your good cooking and artistry in nice memories for a long time. Many warm thanks and I really do hope that we will meet again."

"Je vous envoie tous mes remerciements pour votre si chaleureux accueil. En plus, ce passage m'a permis de vous connaître un peu plus et j'en suis très heureuse en espérant avoir une autre occasion de nous retrouver. Nous avons fait un excellent retour après les belles journées de Dordogne."

Monique Coutansais, Paris

"I am still basking in the happy and comfortable feelings I had over the weekend, feeling welcome, meeting new people, and enjoying the beautiful location. The whole area is the type of countryside I have seen in my dreams. I thank you again for your hospitality, your charm and for sharing your home with me. You have shown me the myths and legends of the Southwest of France that I anticipated seeing. Fate stepped in because I almost didn’t come because of the distance. I know now I would drive several times the distance for such a wonderful experience."

Kaye Harrold, Perth, Australia

"An immense thank you for your kindness, friendship, and

welcome. We had a wonderful time, were sad to go and toasted your health

in the TGV with your wine, your sandwiches, your glasses and your

cork screw!!. Quelle femme! A très bientôt."

"Looking at my photographs makes me want to abandon everything here and come back to France and the chateau – immédiatement!"
