Aquitaine, an historic area of South West France, the marriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine to Henri II in 1152, made this beautiful area part of England for 300 years. Reminders are within the walls of the many Bastide towns around the area - a timeless corner of Aquitaine, once described as "Like a unspoilt Tuscany or Provence". These Bastides are wonderful places to wander amongst the narrow street and alleys and perhaps sample the local cuisine. The climate is sunny, warm and bright for most of the year and the summer enjoys hot days and balmy nights.

Activities

Horse Riding
Restaurant

Within a short drive are many vineyards to visit and sample some of the best wines of France ~ Duras, Buzet, Bergerac and Bordeaux.

In July and August, not to be missed are the night markets in many nearby villages. One can buy local produce such as duck, chicken ,meat and fish cooked to order along with fruits, desserts, bread and of course local wines. Sit and enjoy a memorable evening under the stars listening to live music.

Fruit and vegetable street markets abound and one can sample the french way of life.

There are many beautiful areas for walking and discovering pretty villages and countryside, including fields of golden sunflowers and orchards of plums, hazelnuts and apples.

Bordeaux and Toulouse and the majestic citadel of Carcassonne are within easy reach. For those who enjoy the sea, Arcachon and its golden beaches are within 90.

30 minutes north is the beautiful area of the Dordogne- well worth a visit.

From the Visitors book 1st Sept 09

What a wonderful place to relax and unwind! The most difficult decision of the day (usually taken at 2pm after a very leisurely breakfast of pastries from the local boulangerie! ) is whether to stay and enjoy the incredible views from the pool or to jump into the car and explore the diverse surroundings of the local area under the expert advice of our extremely friendly and helpful hosts. We particularly enjoyed the night markets, bastide towns, Issigeac and Penne d' Agenais and te spectacular sunsets. Rebecca & Chris

If Carlsberg did gites this would be it!
The combination of high class accommadation in a glorious setting with helpful and friendly owners ensures that we will return! The spectacular local scenery and the empty roads have made for a great week of touring. Don't miss the night markets at Laparade and Fongrave! Many thanks Tony & Jane, Au Revoir - Clive & Linda
