Gourdin Ouest description

Beautiful rustic house with original features & modern facilities

Private garden with pool

Tranquil setting yet close to two bastide towns with markets and amenities

A divine French country cottage with stunning kitchen and beautiful bedrooms, finished in the old style with beams and stone but with all the modern facilities required for a comfortable stay. The garden has a pool and toys/cots for children if needed.
Surrounded by fields the cottage offers a private space for a tranquil holiday but within 5 minutes (by car) of two bastide towns, which offer night markets, restaurants, cafes and shopping for those who wish for a little more excitement. In July the area is full of spectacular sunflowers. The area is very flat so excellent for walking and cycling.
Close to Bergerac ( 40 mins by car and Bordeaux 1.10min by car) airports.
Gourdin Ouest is a charming country cottage. It is surrounded by farmland and has a view out the back through woods to the river 'drop'. It is beautifully restored and retains many old features such as original beams and interior stone walls. Accommodation comprises:
•Five bedrooms: 3 double bedrooms and 2 twin bedrooms.( possibility of two extra beds)
•3 modern bathrooms (one with shower, one with bath and one with both).
•The open plan living area/kitchen is enormous and has it's own TV and sofa area and a hand made wooden breakfast table with a view to the pool and garden.

The Gironde - Aquitaine & Dordogne region

The property is secluded yet only within 5 minutes drive to Monsegur and Duras Villages which are very French and both have restaurants, village shops such as butchers, bakers, cafes etc. Monsegur also has a supermarket. There is also plenty of night life going on such as night markets one a week and Jazz evenings/festivals. Antique markets and wine festivals. The house is great for cycling and walking as it is a very flat area and we have 3 children’s bikes and 3 adult’s bikes on residence. There is also a beautiful nature walk called the ‘pole nature’ 15 minutes from the house by foot which takes you all along the river and below the bastide town of Monsegur. If you want a holiday where you can completely unwind and where the children will be occupies swimming in the garden and climbing trees this is it! The house is 12 minutes by car from La Reole which has a huge Supermarket and fast trains to Bordeaux which is a stunning ancient city with museums, theatre, amazing shops and restaurants and loads of activities for children. In this area there is also plenty of places for conoeing and horseriding.
