A really amazing place. So peaceful and relaxing and the hosts are so attentive to your needs. A superb pool and grounds, and so well situated to explore Sarlat and the amazing surrounding areas. We all agreed saying it was one of our most favourite holidays and places, I would highly recommend! The only thing I would suggest is to ask for a mini fridge when you book. There is no restaurant on site (they do a great breakfast though), so if you want to have some cold drinks or buy your own food rather than go to a restaurant every night, you'll need to request a fridge so you can store it all. We asked for one whilst we were there and they were very helpful in getting one for us, but I think it's best to ask in advance otherwise there may not be one available. (Note they also do a lovely charcuterie board if you want that in the evening, although you need to request it in the morning, but that's one way around not having a fridge) Overall though we loved it and would definitely stay again if we're in the area.

My partner and I were very satisfied with our choice because Hotel Le Mas de Castel is very balanced in several regards: - It is quiet, peaceful and perfect for couples but there were a few families staying with young children and yet it was perfectly easy to coexist. - The rooms are tastefully decorated and furnished but not in a way that would feel overdone. As a result, the environment is truly relaxing. - The heated pool is my definition of heaven: a reasonable size, without bells and whistles. You just dive in, settle down and enjoy yourself. No unnecessary upbeat music, no sipping cocktails or champagne while posing on floating mats - less is more. You are able to fully take in Dordogne, be it from the water of from the recliner chairs around the pool. Karine and Roby (the owners) are warm, welcoming and thoughtful.

Breakfast would be better if they had some hot dishes. There is no other food other than breakfast.

At long last, a place to come home to. The rooms are light and airy. The open plan layout worked beautifully for our family of 3 adults. It was rainy, and we were tired after 5 days of sightseeing and walking in all the most beautiful towns of Bordeaux. We decided to stay in and rest. The calmness of the surrounds and nature revived our body, mind, and souls. The only tip would be to change the bathroom to not be an entire whet room but to put in shower glass to prevent the wash basin and toilet to get whet when you take a shower.

We have recently just stayed for a week at the Hotel Le Mas de Castel and it was fantastic. Roby and Karine were amazing hosts and were so nice to me and my husband - as I am pregnant. It really felt like a little family there. They even gifted me a bottle of wine to enjoy after the baby comes which was such a lovely thing to do and their kindness will stay with me for a long time. Breakfast was a lovely experience, sitting out in the sunshine overlooking the beautiful gardens. The food was very varied so you don't have to have the same thing every day! The whole hotel was very clean, our room was spacious and clean and the bathroom was very roomy - lovely. We slept very well every night in the peaceful surroundings! The pool is absolutely beautiful, a lovely temperature and kept so clean! The hotel itself is just five minutes drive from Sarlat centre and within an hour of countless beautiful medieval villages and towns - we visited somewhere new each day. I would recommend getting a car. All in all we cannot fault. I will be back next year when I can relax in the garden with our new addition and a nice, cold glass of wine!

A fantastic boutique hotel literally minutes from Sarlat but in beautiful countryside. The rooms are generous in size and were pristinely clean. The Hosts, Karine and Robie are brilliant and happy to help should you require anything. Thoroughly enjoyed our week here.

Set in a quiet rural area but still within 10 minutes drive of the medieval town of Sarlat and conveniently placed for exploring the many attractions of the area. The hotel is very attractive and the attention to even the smallest detail is apparent. The room was spotless, they even provide a towel for your dog should you bring one. We would certainly return and recommend this hotel to others.
