도멘 드 라바르트

We were greeted by a wonderful,welcoming host and the smell of new mown grass. You can't beat that. It was off season so we practically had the place to ourselves. I felt like Louis XIII when the young ladies started setting up the breakfast. Best goat cheese ever. Fresh fruit and breads of all kinds. Two super-friendly dogs. Completely quiet except for the sounds of nature. We purchased one of their wines and apparently it was awesome. When we finally did meet the vintner,he was really what one pictures a winemaker to be. He was very excited to tell us about his family's wine. Fantastic. Perfect hosts.

We had such a fantastic stay - the property and rooms are wonderful and you are so warmly greeted by not only Laurance but both dogs looking for strokes. We had were given a tour of the house, gardens and swimming pool and Laurance made sure that we had dinner reservations arranged. Our room was spacious with a large comfy bed and ensuite - shower was excellent. The room looks onto the gardens / swimming pool and did have a TV but we never had time to watch it. The property is steeped in history and is decorated in a matching style but a number of modern twists. Breakfast was served in the lounge (or by the swimming pool when its warm enough). There was a lovely selection of fresh baguettes, croissants, cheeses, yogurts, fruit along with juices / tea / coffee. The property also has its own wine label and works in collaboration with Chateau Lagrezette which is located a mile away. We did pop in for a tasting (which is free) and found their wines generally good. The hotel is located in the countryside and about 15mins from the centre of Cahors by car - its a great location to explore the many villages in the surrounding area.

L'expérience magique commence dès le site et le livret d'accueil qui donnent le ton de ce que nous avons savouré au Domaine de Labarthe. Les propriétaires sont charmants, une présence discrète mais chaleureuse et attentionnée. D'excellents conseils pour les restaurants aux alentours et visites de la région, un agréable bonus. La décoration est splendide, dans le respect de l'esprit du lieu, tout est choisi avec goût et soin pour un raffinement digne des grandes maisons. La chambre Prune est douillette, élégante et la literie offre des nuits paisibles, dans un silence qui fait du bien (et sans télé, quelle bonne idée). Une halte à la piscine, dans un jardin superbement entretenu agrémenta ce séjour. Et comment ne pas saluer les délicieux petits déjeuners, festival de produits frais et savoureux. Nous avons passé 1 semaine parfaite, nous venions nous y reposer... mission accomplie avec brio. Merci !

Du grand luxe digne d un 5 etoiles. Nos hôtes sont charmants bienveillants et d’une gentillesse sans fin. Le cadre est juste splendide. L’immense piscine n’est pas le réel atout de lieu fantastique. Tout est parfait dîner et petit déjeuner
