The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Lot et Garonne region

The Lot et Garonne is France as most people imagine France to be warm, verdant, colourful, picturesque, historic, and very peaceful. With just 305,000 people in a departmente of almost 6,000 sq. kms, the Lot et Garonne has one of the lowest population densities in all France. As it is the agricultural heart of France it also has some of the best food, best wine, the most beautiful scenery and the loveliest and friendliest of people you could wish to meet.

Places of interest locally are

Gontaud de Naugeret has probably the finest ancient (14thC), wooden market hall in the Lot et Garonne.

Le Mas d’Agenais, pretty village just across the River Garonne inside the church, hanging in the nave, you will find an altar piece by Rembrand.

Buzet, south of Damazan, has the biggest wine co-operative in France. You can take a tour, taste the wine and buy if you want. Buzet is little known outside of France but has excellent wines, try the Gueyze, it’s very good.

Vianne, south of Buzet is a small and interesting village. The only Bastide to have all four of its walls and gates still in place and intact.

Barbaste, between Vianne and Nerac. Has a lovely water-mill and Henry IV’s towers.

Nerac, south of Vianne, pretty town and has Henry IV’s chateau.

Chateau Bonaguil an imposing ruined castle in pretty countryside. Has a small gallery with artist in residence, Fred Bourgignon.

Monflinquin is in the north-east of the departemente this is a famous hilltop Bastide and it’s a lovely drive there.

There are 9 local golf course within an hour from the house.

There is a farm park a 15 minute drive away where you can milk the goats and make your own cheese.
