All the French windows in the house open out onto a long terrace at the front the house, which has a few steps down to both the pool and the large lawn area with bushes, shrubs and numerous trees giving shade from the sun in the summer heat. At the rear there is also a large enclosed tiled veranda.
Flying to Bergerac is now easy as there are daily flights from Stansted/Bristol/ Southampton/Birmingham/Exeter & Liverpool with Flybe or Ryanair & weekly from Edinburgh. BA has at least twice daily flights to Bordeaux from Gatwick. We have used Bergerac & Bordeaux airports and found both to be excellent. Bergerac airport is 25 minutes from the house while Bordeaux airport to La Groussie is at least a 1½ hour's pleasant drive through some of the Bordeaux wine growing countryside, passing St Emilion on the way or using the new auto route link to Musidan. It is possible to hire a car from any of the major rental companies at both Bordeaux & Bergerac Airports. A few of the car hire companies also have offices in Bergerac. There is a frequent daily train service from Bordeaux to Bergerac.
Bread and a limited supply of groceries can bought in the boulangerie/alimentation in Campsegret. The hamlet also has a tennis court, an area for boule, a wine cave, church, garage and 2 restaurants.
