An outstanding holiday amongst the vines

we were looking for a gite in a special location to holiday with our dogs, and that is exactly what we got and more!! La Porcherie is situated amogst the vines, with amazing views, and in a very special village. Our hosts Trisha and Andy were amazing and went above and beyond to make our stay special, even when we got lost on several occasions!! These are 2 very special people!!! La Porcherie was immaculately presented. Fabulous gite, with everything that you need. The secure garden for the dogs was brilliant, and the dogs loved being out there. We can recommend this place enough, and will definitely be back, "we came as guests but left as friends". La Porcherie and Trish and Andy have a special place in our hearts. Thank you so much for having us!!

Stayed 12 nights in May 2023

About the host

Hosted by Andy

My husband Andy and I took the plunge and moved here to South West France, for a slower pace of life! We are both originally from Surrey , however prior to our move here, we had lived for 17 years in another beautiful part of the world, Selsey in West Sussex. We love animals, being sociable and definitely enjoying all the benefits to a rural life in France!

Why they chose this property

When I saw this property, I cried! It was just what we were looking for, peaceful, not too far from village life, restaurants, bars etc, but had that WOW factor, when our 24 year old son first saw the property, his first words were indeed” wow, I know why you moved here!” Which for me, was just the reaction I had hoped for, we now are up and ready, to share this with others! Who will arrive as guests, but I hope to leave as friends who will visit again!
