We were very welcomed in this hotel/hostel, well located, close to shops, the nice setting, the apartments are charming... we had a very good stay in this very beautiful area of Périgord... I recommend...

Very good stay.

I was drawn to other opinions on the internet to get to know the French Dordogne. The area is spectacular. The hotel is more of a boarding house or Bed & Breakfast, bohemian, with charm, very authentic. The room was large, familiar. The owner and his daughter are lovely. And the breakfast in the wonderful garden. The only hint would be that it lacks a reform to make it perfect, although it might lose its original charm. Abstinence urbanitas.

Bohemia is a place to spend a few days exploring French Dordogne.

A real small apartment with a kitchen, a good bed, dubious property, room unmade, no curtains and windows, cleaning materials cluttering the hallway for two days, a shame, because the reception was nice.

Charming but poor performance

Very charming step in this small family hotel, run by a Scottish family. British rather client but French is well received as well. Large well furnished rooms, with kitchen and something to settle in for a while. Charming patron is right in the centre, French breakfast included. A good address.

Very nice indeed

We booked this B&B for a trip in May, but had to cancel as the wedding we were attending was cancelled.  We have given the owner Margaret 2 months notice of the cancellation and asked for our deposit to be returned.  After promising the deposit to be refunded and been given excuse after excuse we are still waiting.  A word of warning if you do book this B&B pay a deposit at your own peril, if you cancel you are unlikely to get it back!

DEPOSIT REFUND

It's great for a night out. The reception and the service are perfect. Breakfast is also great. We especially appreciate the room space and the bed. But be careful with the temperature, don't go if you're cold and the outside temperatures are negative.

Charm for a night

Riberac itself is a fairly typical town who thanks to the questionable activity of the previous mayor has had its heart ripped out by the introduction of no less than five food supermarkets. This will explain why there are many for sale signs in some of the smaller shops on the Main Street.

This is a very good town however as a base for visiting the numerous and worthwhile museums and features of the area.

The owner of this establishment takes great interest in her visitors and will do what she can to make people feel at home and make suggestions as to where to go. There is a very good tourist bureau within 200 m.

We found the bed very comfortable and huge, the environment quaint and unusual but above all the atmosphere was very homely

This is a good value place; you will particularly realise this when you discover the stratospheric costs of food in this area and elsewhere. If you want to lunch and an evening meal you will be paying at least £100 UK for two people.  

As a rule of thumb, I would allow a daily rate in France of £150 per couple including food and excursions. It is not a cheap country to visit. We overcame this problem by buying bread and cheese and tomatoes and a bottle of wine and sitting in the very pleasant and peaceful garden at the back.

We stayed five days and could have stayed longer.

Some things you cannot put a price on

Friendly and efficient staff, great reception of guests and a fairly good distance to the highway for passing travellers. Staff has problem with English language.  Restaurant or any possibility to get food later than 9 pm is excluded. Slightly overpriced in relation to the value. 

Cosy

The room is very typical, breakfast is very cozy, a very friendly welcome, the only noise is no sound, you can hear the snoring in the next room, you feel like the ceiling is going to collapse as people walk a little overnight.

It's very exciting.

This is a traditional and charming bed and breakfast in the heart of Riberac. Run by such friendly and approachable people. The rooms are well appointed and have a quirky,French charm. Breakfast plentiful and delicious.  We were travelling with my elderly parents and Margaret understood that they required an easy to navigate room immediately which was great. Will be staying again.
