Ian and Sara were the perfect hosts for our day of cooking school. From the visit to the local market to preparing and eating our mouth watering food the day was well beyond our expectations. Ian is a natural teacher and was keen to pass on the knowledge gained as a chef.

We both left left with that warm feeling of having experienced a great day.

Many thanks – Lynn and Peter, Melbourne Australia

Doing the cooking course with Ian was one of the highlights of my stay in The Dordogne. Ian is a natural teacher and he knows how to cook as well. Would recommend this to anyone.

Posted on TripAdvisor“Excellent”

Could not recommend this highly enough. If you’re a foodie, this is a must if you’re visiting the Dordogne. Ian and Sara are a lovely couple. Ian is an extremely knowledgeable chef and has lots of passion for local produce and cuisine. This is a great way not only to improve on your cooking skills, but to learn how to cook some of the local dishes.

We returned to Le Chevrefeuille for a week in September 2016. This time we were travelling with my brother & sister in law (so, 4 adults in total).

As with every time we visit Le Chevrefeuille, our stay was fantastic! My brother & sister in law (who had travelled from Australia) loved it and are planning to return as soon as they can with their three children.

We received the friendliest welcome from Ian, Sara, Adam and Alice and had the best time visiting the beautiful villages and sites of this intriguing and stunning area. The cottage was equipped with everything we needed and, as always, was immaculately clean and fresh………

Posted on TripAdvisor“Third time back and better each time!”

Quiet, relaxing, classic country B&B. Excellent hosts who gave us many suggestions for places to eat and sights to see. Perfect place for our exploration of the area. Lovely area to walk and explore the countryside from the B&B. Highly recommended!

Posted on TripAdvisor“Delightful Country B&B”

What a wonderful discovery, a beautiful property in a wonderful location with enthusiastic, helpful and friendly proprietors that are only too keen to ensure you have a great stay but respectful of your privacy. Ian and Sarah run this smart superior B & B in a French style, relaxed but efficient and are enthusiastic proprietors of everything that is good about the Dordogne.
