Vieille Font

Vieille Font - 5/6 bedroomed house with extensive gardens and private pool

Sleeps 11 /12+ (depending upon the ages of the children)

Vieille Font, has been lovingly restored to a very high standard offering a perfect base for those looking for privacy, peace and quiet and wonderful rural surroundings. Here you can enjoy the peace and relaxation of a truly away from it all holiday, with al fresco meals under the shade of the terrace overlooking the the vines which border the property. The house is appx. 8 km from Duras and 17km from Ste Foy la Grande.  Both these towns have fascinating colourful weekly markets and a number of lively bars and restaurants. This is true rural France, the pace of life is slow, conversation and gastronomy go hand in hand, take your time purchasing local produce on the market and then linger over a relaxing meal in the evening. Visit historic Bergerac on the banks of the picturesque River Dordogne or St. Emilion to savour its renowned red wines.

French Gite Holidays offers a personalised holiday booking service in a hand picked selection of properties - stay in a farmhouse, a cottage, a Manoir or even a chateau - and as we live in the area, we are not far away should you require any assistance during your stay. We are based in the beautiful countryside within the Lot et Garonne department, just on the border of the Dordogne and the Gironde, set within the Aquitaine region of South West France to the east of Bordeaux and not far from Bergerac.
