The kitchen is fully equipped with oven, hob, fridge freezer and microwave oven. There is also a washing machine in the utility room.

The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Gironde region

The property is situated close to the Gironde, Dordogne and Lot et Garonne borders, making it within easy driving distance of several Bastide towns and villages, as well as the medieval towns of Saint Emilion, Sarlat, Eymet and picturesque Bergerac, St Foy La Grande and Duras. Each have lively markets on different days of the week.

The property is in the heart of the Bordeaux wine region and the choice of wine makers offering free wine tasting is enormous. The house is half an hours distance to some the most inspiring wine areas - Cotes de Castillon, St Emilion, Pomerol, Sauternes, Barsac, St Croix Du Mont, Loupiac, Monbazillac.

Restaurants in the vicinity are plentiful and during the summer season many of the villages have evening markets and festivals, varying from jazz and classical open air concerts to vide greniers (bric-a-brac fairs) and son et lumière events.

The Pellegrue / Caplong area

The nearest village to the property, Pellegrue, is only 6 kms away and offers a choice of shops: supermarket, boulangerie, bank with cash dispensers, post office, chemist, bar, cafe and tourist information office where bikes can be hired, 2 tennis courts. Sainte Foy la Grande, only 10 kms away, is on the Dordogne river and has several large supermarkets, many good restaurants, and on Saturdays a traditional market (known as one of the best in France).

In addition to the tennis at Pellegrue, in the area there is a magnificent golf course, and you can go canoeing on the Dordogne. There are many places to hire canoes from along the river.

There is a horse riding stable about 5 km from the house.

Guestbook for La Matha

"We fell in love with La Matha last year, so hopefully we will be making this an annual event! We loved the terrace with the BBQ, we spent every evening out there. The house is lovely and cool during the day, so when it gets too hot (and it does!) we went indoors to cool down. The area is fabulous too, everything is just perfect, so thank you thank, you thank you!"

"We have had a fantastic time in your lovely house. We will certainly recommend your property and possibly re-visit it in a not too distant future. "

"We had fabulous time at La Matha; it was exactly right for us."

"You have a beautiful house with lots of character in a calm and beautiful garden and surrounding countryside. You are lucky to have such a base in France in the worlds number one fine wine region."
