Our Opinion
Quality : Full of French Character yet with modern amenities
This holiday rental chateau offers so many facilities for the active family of all ages. From Target golf to lazing in the hot tub and if you can drag yourself away, the surrounding French Countryside is not to be missed from gastronomic restaurants to canowing down the Lot river!!
Where to find us
Availability & Booking
We stayed here as a group of 5 families in August 2023. The chateau is lovely, and having rented many similar properties in previous years, this is one of the best we've stayed in. The house itself is well equipped, the pool is beautiful and the location and grounds are lovely. Highly recommend.

My family and I have just returned from this chateau, where we had a fabulous holiday. We were a party of 17, in ages from 2 to 79, and everyone had a marvellous time.
