    Little bit isolated - means you have to take the car to get anywhere, (but we knew that).

    Somewhat atypical camping, with bundles of charm and friendly hosts. Wonderful, warm, outdoor shower.

    Leaving :)

    We loved everything about our stay at the Llama Farm and wished we could have stayed longer. The farm and tents are beautiful and spacious, we befriended some lovely Llamas and donkeys and goats and dogs and more than a few lovely people. Nigel and Sarah are the perfect hosts, they love their animals and take great care of their human guests too. Our little girl was happy to wander around the beautiful property independently. Among the many highlights there were daily llama feedings, pool games, outdoor showers and barbecues with new friends. Can’t recommend this place enough, it makes for a truly magical experience.

    Our one night stay wasn’t long enough! We reserved last minute and were delighted to “glamp” at Sarah and Nigel’s property. The tent and facilities were very comfortable and super clean, the animals adorable and the whole atmosphere A++++. We would love to come back and stay longer! What a hidden gem! We loved it!

    I honestly can't fault anything about our stay - unless you count Jeremy and Nobby the roosters for their early morning alarm clock (nothing that you wouldn't expect on a farm and certainly nothing that ear plugs can't help with!)

    Huge thanks to Sarah and Nigel for providing such a pleasant stay! It was our first experience of glamping - we stayed in one of the yurts and it was luxury to sleep in a tent with real (comfy) beds and to take a wild shower! The kitchen facilities were great, with everything we could have needed. Breakfast was AMAZING, with fresh warm pastries & bread, butter, jam and beautiful fresh eggs (thanks chickens!). Our 7 year old son adored feeding the llamas and donkeys, as well as making friends with the dogs! Beyond the animals, there's a lovely little pool & lots of games dotted around for both kids and adults, as well as hammocks and sun loungers for relaxing :-) We couldn't have asked for better hosts- Sarah and Nigel were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure that we were able to have the best break possible...thank you so much, we'll be back! Sarah and Nigel are happy to suggest a wealth of local places to explore (lots of lovely small hamlets, villages, chateaus etc), but there's also plenty of exploring opportunities in and around the farm itself. Definitely recommend your own transport though, as it would otherwise be tricky to get around (as you'd expect in rural France!)...that said, you could easily spend a long weekend just chilling out and relaxing at the farm itself.

    Sarah and Nigel were extremely welcoming to our family. They were particularly fantastic showing our kids around all the animals and answering the numerous questions from the kids. I would suggest this is a must stop for families whose kids have any interest in animals. In addition, they are doing a wonderful job rescuing animals that come their way!

    All was great.

    The animals are clearly the highlights of the place. My favourites were the goats, as it happens, but the dogs were lovely too. Feeding time is not to be missed, and the proprietors do a great job involving the children. One of the highlights of my entire holiday was a lunch in the restaurant 'Bien d'etre' in nearby Mayet. The Plat + Dessert for 10 euro was unsurpassed value, which is why it was full at 1230 on an August Tuesday in country France.

    If I wanted to be picky, I would have liked a small fridge in our room to keep the milk cold for tea.

    We took our own breakfast to eat but made a cup of tea in the outdoor kitchen. We were closely monitored by Nobby the resident Rooster and his 6 girls. They were great fun.

    Our family (mom, dad, kids and grandparents) loved this wonderful place. The accommodation was comfortable and clean. The hosts was super nice and so good with the kids. They took them off to feed the animals and got us floaties for the pool. The tent was lots of fun to stay in. It was a fantastic couple of days and we would love to visit again.

    We had a great stay at the farm on our journey down through France. The owners were lovely and showed us around their fantastic farm and eclectic animal collection. We really liked our spacious, comfortable well-designed room and, as no one else was staying, we had the bathroom to ourselves. Breakfast was fresh and delicious-such a treat to be able to eat it outside in the Spring sunshine with all the birdsong. Highly recommended for a short or a much longer stay!

    The only downside was that many restaurants nearby are closed in August so we need to be organized to plan a lunch/dinner out!

    We had a wonderful stay in the llama farm: we stayed 2 weeks and it really felt like home. The chalet/lodge was very nice, so cute and well equipped (the bbq is +++). Sarah and Nigel are amazing hosts always making their best to please their hosts, they are truly lovely people. Also, the breakfast is great and portions are generous. We will miss the morning visits of the animals and the go around the farm evening sessions, we absolutely loved these! Thank you so much for these holidays and see you soon!!
