Liz Coles placed a for sale advert with us (see here) and is very happy with our site!

 

"I think is a great site really helpful and lots of useful information, thanks very much.

When I first discovered it we had just bought our house, a year ago, and I have found it very informative, especially 'things you should know' and the wildlife of France, entertainment, markets and for sale ads. Great to know 'you are not alone'" Liz Coles 25th September 2008

 


La Rhue advertised with us for the first time on 12 September for their music nights at Jumilhac in the Dordogne and were very pleased with the result.

"Carol, How could I resist you after such wonderful results?  I will be changing the description in a couple of months as the second gite will hopefully be completed by next summer...We will also have a revamped  web site, much more fishing but with extra accommodation, etc. Can we do it all at this price? and a serious "WOW,  YOU ARE TRULY FABULOUS" on the testimonial page?????????? Love you forever, Joe" 3 September 2008

"Hi Carol, We have just returned from our holiday in St Yrieix, and thanks to the wanted ad you put on your website, we have found a great place to store our trailer.This means that we no longer need the wanted ad on the website.

Thanks so much for your help - your website is now in my favourites as it has so much useful and interesting information in it.

Interestingly, the people who are storing the trailer are now advertising storage space for caravans etc, so we have obviously opened a door for them!! Margaret" 10 September 2007

Another satisfied customer we are please to say

 

'Hi Carol - Just to let you know that I have now found two farriers (one via your website) so no longer need the ad you kindly posted for me.  It was under the Equestrian section and was asking for information on any farriers available in the Thiviers area. Thanks for your help and just wanted to let you know that the site is VERY useful. Kind regards, Katie Clark - 17 August 2007'

Linda contacted us last week looking for a translator and then sent us the email below -

 

'Hi Carol
I would like to recommend the SOS Linguistic Sevice advertised on your site.
As you know Carol, we were let down at the last minute by our interpreter for our property sale. Being August it was proving impossible to find a replacement. Carol tried very hard to help when desperation set in, so thank you Carol.
I had left a message on SOS's answer phone at the weekend and got a response on Monday. Janice promised to be there for us on Wednesday and she was. We had to wait much longer for the Acte de Vente to complete, than we had anticipated, as the Notary managed to be running very late. Janice was there for us to the end, had to arrange for someone else to pick up her children as she was so late,  and remained cheerful and helpful  throughout.
The fees are also very reasonable and Janice was embarrassed that she had to ask for a little more than stated, as the one hours work had turned into 3 hours. My buyers in fact insisted she took more than she asked for.
So I would like to thank Janice and commend her service. I would also like to commend Carol and her wonderful websites for finding SOS linguistic services for us and any others in need of interpreters.
Please do publish this for others to see.
Many thanks
Linda' 9 August 2007

'Just wanted to let you know how great we find your web pages.  Our social life has increased by attending many of the events you advertise (we have even been on a sausage and pork pie making course, which was great fun).  Without these web pages we would have been unaware of what was happening in our region.
 
We have advertised in the Classified section and sold our bikes within one day and an ad in the Wanted section also came up trumps within a week.
 
Many thanks and keep up the good work!'

'We own and run busy holiday letting business with two large properties and have advertised with Dordogne on Line for some time now. The site is very well presented and managed and offers a lot more than booking holidays. We have always had good responses for both summer holidays and long winter lets. We  are fully booked from now (March 2007) through to the 1st July 2008. Most of these bookings have come through Dordogne on Line and we are delighted. The Wanted section is particularly useful. We have kept a regular check on this and found several clients - especially long lets. The regular newsletter is another good feature and is very helpful.'

Jen and Brian have advertised with us since 2005 and have achieved 3 long term lets for their property in the Dordogne

See reference FOL/LL/1

 

'Love your new events pages and venues ads.  We have actually started getting out and about more because of  your new pages. All the best, Jen & Brian'
