Resting in a peaceful Lot-et-Garonne valley of rolling hills, orchards, vineyards, cornfields and sunflowers, these three wonderful adjoining gîtes, set in 16 acres of tranquil countryside, each with three bedrooms, have been converted from a large ancient barn situated near to St Livrade-sur-Lot. They have a wealth of original features including oak beams and exposed stone walls coupled with stunning views over the Lot valley.
Each gîte is tastefully furnished to reflect the character and charm of the original dwellings. They're well located for a peaceful and relaxing holiday in the stunning countryside but also as a base to explore everything this fantastic region has to offer. They're ideal for large families or groups of friends holidaying together providing private space when needed. You are free to explore the 16 acres, finding wild orchids in the Spring, stargazing at night, wildlife spotting in the woods or simply relaxing in the sunshine and cool off in the large inviting swimming pool.
Within a short drive you'll find towns and villages with their pavement cafes, restaurants, shops and markets situated along the Lot River, such as the medieval village of Pujols with a renowned market which is also one of the Plus Beaux Villages de France, Villeneuve-sur-Lot a bastide town with great shops and restaurants, Agen which is the capital city of the region just 30 minutes away, or further afield is Duras which is one of the grand hilltop châteaux dotted around the region.
There is so much to see and do around the area. There are six golf courses within an hour's drive of the property. The region is famous for Agen prunes and the plentiful plum orchards stretch out for miles around. You can also look forward to mouth watering gastronomic delights of the region and, of course, the abundance of fantastic local wines. Some attractions include prune museum, waterlily collection, golf courses, fishing on the river Lot, wine tours, stargazing, bird watching, hiking, boating and canoeing/kayaking on the rivers Lot and Dordogne, cycling.
The property is easily accessible from Bergerac, Bordeaux and Toulouse regional airports.

The gites have been very recently refurbished to a high standard and are sparklingly clean. The owners Fiona and Gareth have their own house within the 16 acre site and were so thoughtful and accommodating. We flew to Bergerac airport and it’s about 50 minutes by car to the gites. Fairly remote and surrounded by beautiful countryside but a few minutes drive from the nearest place to get supplies. We found everything we needed for a self catering stay in our accommodation.

The location is rural with beautiful views, but only a short drive to shops and other amenities. Gardens and pool area are immaculately maintained, with comfortable outdoor furniture. The gites are spotless, stylishly furnished and decorated, with a very well equipped kitchen, quality beds and bedding, lovely bathroom and shower. After nine years traveling to France, this is the highest standard of accommodation we have found. Fran L

We took some friends with us this time who were equally impressed with the quality of the accommodation. The hosts, Fiona & Gareth, continue what they started 3 years ago - extremely high standards - we were very well looked after and nothing was too much trouble. Already planning a visit for later this year. Susan H

Joined friends for a week in stunning countryside . The gites are the real jewel, I have never stayed in a property so well equipped. The hosts Gareth and Fiona are extremely conscientious in keeping the gites sparkling clean and are very welcoming. Can't wait to go back! Sue W

The pool was excellent and a gorgeous temperature, perfect for the high temperatures during our holiday. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners, Fiona and Gareth, who were the perfect hosts.
The area the gite is in is beautiful and there are many local places to visit. We had a fabulous holiday and would definitely stay again if we were holidaying in this area of France. Suze J
