Monflanquin:
This is a beautiful mediaeval hilltop `bastide` village, classified as `l`un des plus beaux villages de France` and elected as one of the top 10 villages of France by the Daily Telegraph travel writers. When one sees the beautiful, vaulted archways surrounding the central square, one can understand why. It is a thriving village supporting all the required services - bank, post office, doctors, butcher, bakers, bars and a wide choice of restaurants. There is also a good sized `casino` supermarket.
Exploring:
For those who like to explore, then day visits to Cahors, Bergerac, Issigeac, Monpazier, Domme, Les Eyzies and St. Emilion are all possible.
Our colourful local markets are always worth a visit.
Activities:
These include tennis, golf, cycling, walking, horse riding and canoeing - not forgetting the local Boules area. If all this is too much, then simply do what most of our visitors do - just relax by the pool....
`Volets Bleus` is the very private wing of our own home. On the 1.5 acre site, is a further cottage with 2 bedrooms and two bathrooms. Visitors share the 11 by 5 m. pool. The tiled terrace is large, so there is plenty of room. Each property has its own terrace, which is totally private, ensuring our visitors total peace and quiet.
We have lived here for almost 20 years, so know the area and the local people well. Holiday makers will receive a friendly welcome.
For those looking to buy property or land, and to renovate or build from scratch, I can offer help, advice and services.
Other Activities:
Visits to many beautiful mediaeval hilltop villages are just a short drive away.
