A newly restored 3 bedroomed farmhouse with private pool - 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms 

Sleeps 6 / 8 +

  

Bobie poolside - perfect!

The area: Bobie is situated just over 1km away from the pretty village of Duras in the Lot et Garonne - the heart of France's wine and gastronomic region.  Bobie offers a perfect setting for relaxing, yet has easy access to the weekly market, numerous restaurants, shops and various sporting activities. It is an ideal base for wine tasting in places such as St. Emilion and visiting historic towns such as Eymet, Monsegur, and Bergerac. There are daily markets in this area all year round.  Duras has a fascinating chateau and is well worth a visit. The picturesque village comes alive in the summer, with weekly events such as the wine festival, antiques fairs, night markets and open air music. The wine festival is a must, if only to see the Montgolfier balloons which almost touch the rooftops of the village houses! 

The accommodation: Bobie is a newly renovated farmhouse offering a full range of home comforts:

Leading from the kitchen, there is another utility type room - home to an additional freezer and table tennis table.

Upstairs there are 3 tastefully decorated bedrooms - each with a double bed, wardrobe and vanity table and chairs.  The largest room at the end of the building also has a set of bunk beds.  Upon request, there is the possibility of adding another bed into this room should it be required (please refer to the price table below).  There is also a spacious shower room with deluxe shower & vanity unit. Separate WC.

Outside:

Outside the house you have a secluded terrace with BBQ, dining table, parasol and chairs, sunbeds and a paved pool area overlooking the fields and trees beyond.  Perfect for enjoying a chilled glass of wine. The 11 x 5m pool is graduated (shallow and deep end) with entry via Roman Steps.  The pool is alarmed.

There is a small pond at the back of the garden - which although normally dry during the summer months may be a source of interest for young children.  This can be fenced off upon request.

Whilst the owners live at the other side of the house, they will respect your privacy at all times, have their own drive and entrance and do not use the pool whilst you are in occupancy.  The owners (English, French & Polish speaking) offer you their wonderful home grown produce from their vegetable garden (at no charge!).

Sorry, no dogs - the owners have cats!
