Description from owner

Description

Welcome to Les Hirondelles - a detached, 3-star-accredited, spacious and comfortable barn conversion, ideally situated in the beautiful Lot-et-Garonne for your holiday in South-West France.

Located between Duras and Marmande, from here you can explore the nearby bastide towns and villages with their castles, market squares, river valleys, vineyards and sunflower fields.

Within 5 to 15 minutes drive, you can find markets and shops for your daily needs, bars and restaurants, or outdoor activities such as horse-riding, kayaking, crazy golf and animal parks.

There are atmospheric night markets during the summer season, with a wide choice of food stalls, arts and crafts, local specialities and live entertainment.

Hire some bikes or just bring your walking shoes, to enjoy a selection of marked hiking and cycling routes - one of which passes through the village.

You can even plan a day at the seaside, as Arcachon on the Atlantic coast is only an hour and 45 minutes away, boasting the largest sand dune in Europe.

The beautiful towns of Bergerac and Bordeaux, with their airports, are just 55 and 90 minutes away, whilst the channel ports can be reached in 8 to 10 hours.

Les Hirondelles enjoys views across the open countryside from the terraces and the 10x5m salt-water pool for your exclusive use during your stay.

So whether you prefer an activity-filled holiday or a complete chill-out, you can find it here.
