The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Gironde region
MONSEGUR The nearest town is Monsegur with Supermarket, Restaurants, Weekly Market,Banks and Bars - and is just 5 mins drive away.
The area is served by airports at Bordeaux, Bergerac and Toulouse and there is a first class motorway sytem.
NEARBY TOWNS Slightly further afield (within 25 minutes drive) are the towns of Duras, Marmande Ste Foy la Grande, and Sauveterre-de-Guyenne.
Each hold a colourful weekly market, selling local produce. These towns also offer a larger range of shops, including Supermarkets, Restaurants, Bars, Banks, and Estate Agents. Each July Monsegur hosts the International Monsegur Swing Jazz Festival. The area abounds with excellent vineyards and restaurants. Not only is the region famous for wines but also produces excellent prunes, 'Pruneaux d'Agen'.
About 40 to 50 minutes drive away are Eymet, Bergerac and St. Emilion, which are all worth exploring. St. Emilion is our favourite and to give you a flavour of the town, in the summer, an open sided tourist tram takes you on a short interesting tour of the ancient cobbled streets and nearby vineyards. In our opinion, St. Emillion has grabbed the world's share of excellent restaurants.
BORDEAUX The city of Bordeaux offers an interesting day out for shopping or sight seeing. This could be combined with a trip to the coast, which is about two hours by car. There are many protected natural areas by the sea and an ornithological park at Bassin d'Arcachon.
MUSIC During the summer months fetes are held in nearby villages and towns when sometimes the town square plays host to visiting Rock Bands - and all night partying.
Monsegur Gironde / Dieulivol area
The area abounds with excellent vineyards and restaurants. Not only is the region famous for wines but also produces excellent prunes, 'Pruneaux d'Agen'.

Dieulivol also has a small Post Office that stocks basic provisions. The friendly farming family at Dieulivol are happy to sell you free range eggs.

Guestbook
"We very much enjoyed our holiday at Bouteau II. The Welcome Pack was a very nice touch and much appreciated." Mrs. C. V. D, Lingfield.
"In the past we have had some reservations about booking properties through a company rather than from individual owners. May I say that our experience with Bouteau II completely removed any such reservations. Finally may I thank you personally for the courteous and efficient way in which you have handled the whole transaction." Mrs. G. J., Harrogate.
"We very much enjoyed staying at Bouteau II. The house is fabulous and the setting really lovely. The best equipped self-cater home we have stayed in! Thank you.” Miss. C. Riches, Epsom.
