The couple who owns the place has young children, and there are plenty of toys, books, and playspaces available. I didn't eat in the restaurant at night but the food looked fresh and delicious, and much of it is grown in the owners' own garden. Breakfast, with fresh baked breads, fruits, and yogurts, was scrumptious. The owners are simply lovely people. The husband of the couple came and picked up my traveling companion and me in Rocamadour and was incredibly nice and accommodating, even when we caused him to get back late for dinner! Carennac is a beautiful town and I only wish I'd stayed here longer than one night.

We thought we were in a medieval fairytale, the town is very cute. The hosts, Jayne & Ian, were extremely friendly and helpful. Their two boxers were very friendly and well behaved.

The whole center of the old town came alive with fruit, vegetable, foie gras, cheese, and other vendors selling their goods. A great experience!

We booked a 2-night stay, and when we arrived, the hosts were not there during their posted business hours. We called and they came about 10 minutes later as we waited outside, and they yelled at us incessantly as they approached. The yelling did not cease, and they continued to tell us they cancelled our reservation and were obstinate to any reason. I hoped to minimize emotional damage to my wife and child and told the hosts "Enough", if they wouldnt give us our room, we would find one somewhere else. Not worth the fight. I thought, later on, of course they will refund our money. They didn't. The entire experience tainted and ultimately spoiled our stay in Sarlat-la-Caneda. We had to spend extra time to find a hotel at the last minute, and the unprecedentedly rude treatment was quite jarring. These people are not professional in the least. Add to that how hard they were to reach afterwards when us and our booking agency tried to call them, they are only open a couple hours of the day and still then often aren't there during their posted business hours. It is a shame because we had such a wonderful trip throughout many other towns and accommodations across France. I recommend France, the Dordogne Valley, and even Sarlat - but steer clear of this bait and switch.

We had research this and a couple of other nearby spots, but this seemed the best so we said yes. She asked if we wanted a second reservation for the next day and we waffled not wanting to commit but she said there is only one table left so I'll pencil you in and you can cancel if you don't want it. Our first night's dinner was so good that we immediately decided to return for a second night. For our first night I had the seasonal chef's recommendation which was a starter of shrimp in a tapioca soup (perfect large shrimp and a delicious broth), chicken stuffed with mushrooms and parsnips beneath the skin, and a cold strawberry custard dessert. It was all fabulous. My wife had one of the fois gras starters, roast lamb, and a delicious chocolate and crispy peanut dessert (which she particularly liked). A nice 1/2 bottle of local red wine, a delicious beet amuse bouche and and after dinner marshmellow (house made) and macaron final treat made for a memorable meal. Our second night we had to try all different things. My wife had the second fois gras starter which is fashioned in house and was spectacular. She had roast cod (perfectly flakes and coated with sesame seeds) accompanied by some exquisite cabbage (never thought I'd say that about cabbage). For dessert she had the rum baba with mango ice cream (drenched at the table with spiced and fruited rum). I had the poached oyster starter. The oyster were lightly cooked and served in the shells on a bed of leeks with a seafood emulsion. I followed this up with the sweetbreads which were something I'd always wanted to try. And finally the profiteroles (small pastry shells with coffee over cream, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce. This time our waiter recommended a nice local white wine (from Chardonnay grapes) that was very nice. An amuse bouche of pumpkin soup and the after dinner treats perfected the meal. So, two nights, two home runs. Great meals at a fair price (about 100 euros for two each night). Reservations recommended, but once you have a reservation the table is yours for the night, they don't turn the table for someone else. Both nights the chef came out of the inaccurate kitchen as we were leaving to greet us and check on our experience.

The beds and linens are warm, comfortable and meticulously clean. While the rooms and bathrooms are simple, the have good water pressure, hot water, etc. The soap and shampoo are simple in the wall dispensers. No amenity kits or toothbrushes, but this is reflected in their inexpensive room rates. Plus, they are across from a large grocery. Also, the grocery across the street has laundry facilities in their parking area. Finally, their staff were thoroughly helpful, friendly and cheerful. They spoke much better English than I spoke French! The hotel does not allow smoking inside and our rooms did not have any scent of cigarette smoke. This is something I appreciate because fancier places did have cigarette smoke wafting in from parking areas and front entrance.
