Overview
Description
Seeking the ideal getaway? Then look no further than Bernadis, perfectly positioned within walking distance of the historic hilltop bastide village of Monflanquin, one of France’s "plus beaux villages”. Bernadis sits within the grounds of your hosts' (Clare and Damon) family home, at the end of a no-through road. The property retains the charm of the original building, but with a modern twist, and comprises a quirky kitchen/dining room, separate snug and three bedrooms which are configured to accommodate either a family with 2 children or 4 adults (with use of 2 double beds and 1 small double bed across 3 bedrooms). Outside there is access to a large pool, sunbathing terrace (with sunbeds for everyone), covered summer kitchen and outdoor seating away from the pool for relaxing evenings enjoying our wonderful sunsets!For the more active minded there are lovely country walks, accessible from the property, and electric bikes are available on site should you wish to explore further afield. Guests are also welcome to use our outdoor table tennis, badminton and darts! Enjoy a range of restaurants and bars in Monflanquin, where the village comes alive with its weekly summer night markets and annual medieval festival (mid August) with parades, entertainment and period costume. Why not explore some of our delightful neighbouring bastide villages, including Villereal, Monpazier and Pujols? Or venture a little further and take a boat trip/kayak along the beautiful Dordogne or discover the many vineyards dotted around our beautiful area.
We are 5 mins drive away from a large Auchan supermarket (open 7 days a week) and 45 mins away from Bergerac Airport (pick up/drop off can be arranged for an additional charge). Toulouse and Bordeaux Airports are within a couple of hours’ drive and, from Calais, Roscoff or Cherbourg, it’s a 9 hour drive.

Two weeks of absolute heaven
By Debbie Barber on 20-Sep-2026We can't say enough lovely things about our stay in Monflanquin - of our lovely gite, Bernadis, or our fabulous hosts, Clare and Damon. From the minute we arrived, they made us feel so welcome, like we were old friends. The property is absolutely gorgeous, it had everything we needed for our stay, and more besides. The little thoughtful, tasteful touches throughout made it feel like a home-away-from-home, rather than a holiday rental. The pool area was gorgeous! The various seating areas around the property all offered something a little different - we had our very own little morning coffee area, our afternoon "aperitif" space, and our evening indoor-outdoor dining. Clare and Damon were very mindful about leaving us to enjoy our time away, but were available if we needed anything during our stay, with helpful advice on places to eat and shop, lovely walks in the area, etc. A truly heavenly stay at Bernadis. We will most certainly be back.
A weeks Relaxation in a beautiful setting
By Amanda Knight on 12-Sep-2026From the outset Clare & Damon were the most congenial hosts, nothing was too much trouble and we had everthing we needed. Striking the perfect balance between being available whilst allowing privacy. The gite is stylish and comfortable, and the summer kitchen is a stroke of genious. The pool is beautiful, with a lovely spot to sit to eat and drink. Other areas for morning.coffee or glass of evening rose. Beautiful dark skies for star gazing. The gite is perfectly located to visit many Beaux Villages of France. Lovely walk through fields into beautiful village square, which was friendly and convivial, and provides a choice of resturants.. We enjoyed a much needed break, Clare & Damon are lovely.
Great week in a well-equipped house
By Mike on 17-Aug-2026Stayed here in mid-August with my two girls. The house is in a great location, well-equipped and with friendly on-hand owners. Couldn't ask for more really, and hope to return!
Perfect in every way!
By Fiona Higney on 10-Aug-2026We spent a week in this wonderful gite. The ‘summer kitchen’ was unique and joyous - it’s natural stone walls and wooden slats opening out to the lawned and white gravelled areas made us feel like we could be in a rural retreat - a beautiful relaxing space to be in. The kids were kept entertained with the great ‘games shack’ adjacent and of course the wonderful pool with covered shaded area and great sun beds. The whole gite was simply yet tastefully decorated and the beds were comfortable. We cycled to Villa Real for lunch one day on the fab electric bikes which took around an hour each way - lovely scenery and very enjoyable if a bit long in the heat that day, but a lovely addition to have use of the bikes with due notice. Montflanquin is as beautiful as claimed and we loved the spectacular annual medieval festival and weekly night market. Damon and Clare were the perfect hosts - helpful and communicative yet respectful of our privacy. We really hope to return one day! Thank you so much Damon and Clare!
Charming Gite, Quiet Location, Relaxing Stay
By Osborne family on 27-Jul-2026We had a great experience from the start as Damon and Claire were flexible and accommodated our 10 days break request during peak season. Hosts are present if needed but mindful of everyone's space and privacy. Gite is well presented and everything works . We stayed during the extreme heat of this summer and throughly enjoyed days by the lovely pool, which is perfectly maintained. Note for those with travelling with Teens - the WIFI and connectivity was second to none. Thanks we hope to return one day.
A perfect stay with friends.
By Suzanne Dolphin on 12-Jul-2026Wow what a fantastic place! We had a wonderful stay. The accommodation was beautiful, comfortable and in a lovely quiet location. The pool was fantastic and the facilities were excellent. The nearby village was charming and had everything we wanted close by, including some fantastic restaurants and a vibrant night market. Clare and Damon were wonderful hosts . Nothing was too much trouble and they were always around to help if we had any questions, while giving us plenty of privacy. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and would love to visit again.
