This 2 bedroom cottage for up to 4 guests is located in a peaceful area just a 4 minute drive, or 7 minute cycle ride, along a quiet road into the popular bastide village of Eymet with its myriad of restaurants, bars and artisan shops. At just 25 minutes from Bergerac airport, it's perfect for even just a short break out of peak season.
It's a great base for exploring the area with all of its tourist attractions, vineyards and the array of amazing architectural and historical delights, from fairytale châteaux dotted along winding rivers to hilltop villages with magnificent views and glorious sunsets. The surrounding countryside is great for walking and cycling and you can hire bikes locally. You will drive on quiet roads through beautiful countryside with endless vines and fields bursting with sunflowers in the Summer.
The house is not far from the many places to eat and drink in Eymet itself, so you should find plenty to choose from! There's a well stocked supermarket and it's also only a short drive to the larger town of Miramont-de-Guyenne where you will find more to do and see, along with larger supermarkets. Lauzun and Duras with their châteaux are also just a short drive and well worth a visit. From late June through July and August Eymet hosts a very popular weekly atmospheric soirée gourmande and night market where you will see and hear live music accompanied by a selection of regional delights and delicacies, not forgetting a great selection of wines from the local vineyards and châteaux! You will also find atmospheric daytime markets held each day of the week in this area, even on Sundays. There are also more strenuous activities such as canoeing, kayaking, climbing and adventure parks within easy reach of Eymet.
