Just returned from Europe and had to write a review about this wonderful bed and breakfast where my husband and I stayed. It is run by two 'Brits' and it is the best bed and breakfast I have ever encountered. Spotlessly clean, wonderful food and great location. The host and hostess treat you like family and Lorraine is a fab.... More

I would highly recommend a stay at this wonderful B&B. Bob and Lorraine are wonderful hosts. Due to flight issues, we were late arriving on our first night for our planned four course dinner. They were so flexible in accommodating our schedule and prepared an incredible meal, treating us like we were old friends visiting their vacation cottage. The garden/pool... More

A high standard bed and breakfast in a period town house in the picturesque village of Arnac. Arnac is a rural village with few amenities but it is perfectly situated for the medieval towns of Saint Antonin and Cordes-Sur-Ciel (both between a 10-20 min drive). The website http://www.maison-lavande.com/ is a very fair representation of what to expect. We stayed for... More

My family and I have just spent 2 weeks in the company of Bob and Lorraine Walker at their Chambre d'Hote in the Aveyron Gorge close to the lovely town of St Antonin Noble Val. Travelling to stay in a new place for the all important big Summer Holiday is always nerve-wracking for many reasons but our hosts Bob and... More

We spent four days being pampered, fed and generally spoilt! A lovely relaxing and quiet part of France, with lots to see and do closeby should you wish. Our favourite was the nearby medieval town of St Antonin Noble Val, and Cordes which was a little further away. A truly beautiful part of France with Maison Lavande providing all the... More

You cannot fail to love your hosts Bob and Lorraine who make you welcome as soon as you walk in the door. Their home has been lovingly restored in the French tradition and the bedrooms are sooooo comfortable! Four poster beds, matresses you sink into, luxurious cotton sheets, tea and coffee making facilities, biscuits, sweets, fruit, hairdryer and lovely toiletries... More

Like others who have stayed at Lorraine and Bob Walker's lovely home near St Antonin-Noble-Val, we have twice been welcomed here as old friends. 'Old' we may be (to some eyes!) so we have learned to appreciate our creature comforts and they are there in abundance at Maison Lavande. On arrival we were quickly ushered into a stunning sitting room,... More

Believe me, if you need a break, this is the place to escape to! We visited last April for a weeks break, I was recuperating after a back injury; to say I came back relaxed was an understatement! On arrival, Lorraine & Bob greeted us like long-lost friends, they were so helpful & informative, with great recommendations for eating out... More

I can safely say the bed in the pink & green room was the most comfortable I have ever slept on in any holiday accommodation. Nothing spoils a holiday more than a crappy bed, but this was bliss. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated. Lorraine had thoughtfully provided little extras, like posh biscuits with the tea & coffee making... More
