Home description
Set in a third of an acre, the house and pool are totally private and a perfect venue for a family holiday, or just a group of friends getting together. Bonnet is a charming farmhouse which we have lovingly restored, keeping its character with a mass of beams and stonework. The rooms are all a good size, so there is plenty of room for 12 people, everything is in good working order, and if there is ever a little hiccup, we are only 10 minutes away to deal it immediately.
Days out include canoeing on the dordogne, aerial walkways and tree climbing at an adventure park, Horse riding nearby and karting and 10 pin bowling at Bergerac.

The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Lot et Garonne region
Lauzun is on the border of the Dordogne, and the Lot et Garonne. Bergerac is only 30 minutes away, where you can visit a multitude of vineyards, including Monbazillac, famous for its desert wines, and also for the stunning Chateau which does guided tours. There is also a shop in the grounds of the Chateau where you can sample some local wines, and buy them if they take your fancy!
We are very lucky to be surrounded by such beautiful undulating countryside, definitely a hit with budding artists where there is never have a shortage of things to paint, especially the magnificent views and the glorious sunflowers when they are in season.
The Lot et Garonne and the Dordogne provide a fun day out on the river in canoes for the adventurous, or a leisure boat for those who want to take life a bit easier. What ever you choose to do, you will find the locals charming and friendly, and always eager to help wherever they can.
Lauzun area
A quiet market town, Lauzun has a good restaurants, a baker, a small supermarket, and a market on Saturdays. There is a hypermarket 15 minutes away at Miramont, or in Bergerac which is 30 minutes away, and the beautiful town of Villeneuve Sur Lot is around 45 minutes.
All the towns in the area have a market on different days which our guests love to potter around, or just watch the world go by with a glass of wine in their hand.
For those who like a bit of fun in the evening, there is a night market during July and August in the town of Eymet, where you can buy local produce which is bar-b-qued in the streets, and you can sample some of the wines which are on offer by local producers at their own stalls.
If you are lucky, you might be holiday when the towns take it in turn to have their Bodegas, a night when you can roam around and sample food and wine, and listen to dozens of bands in the streets who play all sorts of music. The highlight for us are the drums that pound round the streets in the balmy heat of the evening, and with everyone joining in dancing.
There are Chateaux to visit, wine tasting, horseriding in the next village, and we are surrounded by the best selection of very reasonably priced restaurants you will find anywhere.
