Photos and Description of the Agen area vacation rental

At Faysselle, we offer three charming cottages for a wonderful relaxing holiday. They are set in 12 acres garden, fields and woodland in the beautiful countryside of Lot-et-Garonne, South West France. The gites have been restored to retain as much character as possible, with beams and exposed stonework. The centre of activity at Faysselle is the pretty 10.5m x 5.5m pool with a mini-pool (ideal for toddlers) and waterfall. Pool games, snooker, badminton and boules are provided. Also children's swings. The local area has much to offer all the family, with beautiful bastide villages and markets to explore and numerous sporting activities. Horse-riding, golf, tennis and water sports all within easy reach. This is a wonderful area for lovers of nature with good walks and birdspotting. The owners and their three golden retrievers live (discreetly) on site and are available for any information you require. Evening meals are also available.

The region is full of historical interest and was much fought over during the Hundred Years' War. There are numerous bastide villages to explore, along with colourful markets selling the wonderful local fruit and vegetables. We are close to the wine growing areas of Buzet, Duras and Cahors, and for food lovers this area is a must! Magret and confit of duck, foie gras, melons, plums and soft fruit are all produced locally. Agen is famous for its prunes and if your only memory of prunes is from school dinners, wait until you try prunes in Armagnac. You will never think of them in the same way again! Restaurants vary from basic regional cooking to haute cuisine, and prices from 10 euros for a three course lunch to the somewhat more expensive (!) Michelin 3 star restaurant in nearby Puymirol. Golf and horse riding are close by and there are several leisure lakes with 'beaches'.

Further details for this vacation rental in Agen area, France

Couchant Sleeps 6. Couchant is a spacious upside-down gite with two of the bedrooms on the lower floor. This means that during our hot summers, these bedrooms stay particularly cool. The first impression when walking through the downstairs double doors into Couchant is that of space. The hallway looks up to the gallery landing and on to the magnificent beams leading to the roof space. Straight ahead are a double and a twin bedroom and to the left a bath/shower/wc, and a second shower/wc. Up a separate staircase is the 'hideaway' bedroom which is always much in demand by the children. Although still within earshot (!) they feel they have a den of their own! Upstairs is the spacious living area with comfy sofas, an insert wood burning fire for the cooler autumn evenings. There is a variety of family games provided and a tv (including BBC channels) and dvd. For dining indoors there is a large oak dining table which seats eight people.

The well-equipped oak kitchen (new 2008) has a dishwasher, microwave, oven and hob, large fridge/freezer and washing machine. From the living area, two steps lead down to the french doors and the terrace with table and chairs and barbecue. The terrace is well shaded by walnut and mulberry trees with figs trees alongside. Imagine fresh figs for breakfast picked from the trees in late summer! The terrace opens out onto the front garden of the property, but is well sheltered by bushes to retain its privacy. This is an ideal spot for watching the sun go down whilst sipping a glass of wine and waiting for the barbecue to be ready!
