La Rivière

Great host, great place! We stayed in this B&B perfectly located by the river and we had a very pleasant overnight stay; our host were very welcoming and offered a wonderful breakfast made with local breads, jams and egg. We strongly recommend and very convenient if you are attending an event at Domaine de la Rousserie nearby (5mn drive time)

We are so glad we found La Rivière! We were hoping to take a restful day off from our travelling through France, and La Rivière was the perfect place. We chose “La suite Balnéo”, which is two rooms – a lounge with a huge spa bath and a bedroom upstairs with yet another (roll-top) bath. Our room was clean, comfortable, spacious, had tea / coffee making facilities and even dressing gowns! There’s also a shared lounge area with plenty of comfy seating for when the weather isn’t suitable to be outside. There’s a petanque / boules court, a small (but sufficient) swimming pool, a hot tub / spa, comfy outdoor chairs, some miniature goats, and the most laid-back cat (Tony) we’ve ever come across. If you really must “connect”, then there’s free Wi-Fi too. La Rivière is a few minutes’ drive from the nearest village, so it’s nice and peaceful, and was a perfect location for our quiet day off by the river. Matthias is a charming and entertaining host, as well as an outstanding cook. His English is excellent, so if your French is a bit rusty, fear not… you will have great fun improving each other’s vocabulary! A generous and delicious continental breakfast got us off to a great start to the day. On both evenings we asked to “eat in” and Matthias personally prepared very high quality dinners for us from his menu. Eating breakfast and dinner on the terrace overlooking the river was a delight, especially when joined by Matthias in the evening after dinner for conversation and a glass or three of the local wine. We enjoyed our stay at La Rivière very much and will certainly visit again when we’re next in that area. Highly recommended.

We had a perfect stay! The room was clean, stylish, but most important, the owner made us feel very welcome. Hé suprised us, by calling us, when we where eating in the centre of Bordeau. To tell us hè prepared the Spa for us. So we could enjoy it, when we returned to the b&b 😀. After a good sleep and a great breakfast, we continued kür trip with great energy. Inge and Michael

Heel aangenaam verrast door de aangename en relaxte sfeer zodra je het terrein op rijdt en ook de ontvangst door de enthousiaste eigenaresse is veel waard. Drankje en heerlijk diner op het dakterras met uitzicht over de Dordogne is fantastisch. Het verzorgde ontbijt staat hier 's ochtends ook klaar. Apart terras met 2 fauteuils om te genieten v/d rivier. Fijn om 2 nachten hier te zijn met eigenaren die er veel zin in hebben. Een aanrader.

Un magnifique havre de paix, où tout est fait pour prendre le temps et profiter du moment présent. La décoration est très soignée, cosy et chaleureuse. La suite spa est un petit cocon de bien être où le temps s’arrête.. Les hôtes sont très sympathiques et pleines de petites attentions.. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et délicieux.. Nous y retournerons dès que possible ..

Ce lieu est un havre de paix et de bien être, cosy, calme, propre à 30 minutes de Bordeaux . Très bien accueilli pour les propriétaires qui sont un jeune couple adorable et très attentionné. On arrive , on a juste à poser nos bagages et se laisser vivre, le temps s’arrête le temps d’une soirée . Je le conseille .
