Photos and Description of the Duras vacation cottage rental

Between Duras and Eymet. Wheelchair accessible cottage with its own with swimming pool. Inspected and accredited by the national 'Association Tourisme & Handicaps' for wheelchair accessibility. Inspected by Clévacances and awarded 3 keys (the equivalent of 3 stars). 90% of our bookings so far are from satisfied customers returning for the second, third or fourth time. In the heart of an area of rolling orchards and vineyards, the three-bed-roomed cottage, which sleeps six, is part of the 15th century property of Pierrot surrounded by fifteen acres of private parkland. Set near the historic market town of Duras, Pierrot is within an easy drive of the Dordogne valley. The wine chateaux of St. Emilion/Bordeaux and Entre Deux Mers are near-at-hand, as well as the bastides (fortified towns) of the Guyenne, a region that provided the backcloth to the Hundred Years War.

Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Duras, France

We have renovated our old prune oven barn (we’re not sure exactly how old it is, but it features on the Plan Napoleon which makes it at least 160 years old) into a new cottage. The cottage is newly equipped and furnished and sleeps up to 8 in three bedrooms – one double (160x200), one twin (2 beds 90x200) and one room with 2 beds (90x200) and 2 chairs that pull out into single beds (80x190). There is one bathroom with bath, open shower, washbasin and WC; a separate WC with hand washbasin; and a shower room with washbasin and shower. The cottage is all on one level, so no stairs to negotiate, and is wheelchair accessible. It has its own large garden and swimming pool and is completely independent of our other cottage, being approximately 50 metres apart. For those seeking winter accommodation or a long let, the cottage is double glazed and well insulated with central heating.

Where possible we have retained the old stone walls and character of the original building, which was open on two sides, except for one room which is now the sitting room. The dining room retains the openness of the original by having two large sliding windows all along one side, giving the room a light airy feel. The horseshoe shaped kitchen fits snugly into the old prune drying area. The house is near Duras in Lot-et-Garonne and the nearest small airport is Bergerac (half an hours drive) with flights from Stansted, East Midlands, Bristol & Liverpool (Ryanair); Gatwick, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Leeds, Southampton and Exeter, (Flybe). Flights to Bordeaux (one and a half hours drive) are available from Birmingham and Manchester (Bmibaby); Gatwick (British Airways); Bristol and Luton (Easyjet) Southampton (Flybe).

Travelling here is now really easy! Resident English owners with more than 15 years experience renting holiday accommodation are on hand to help you make the most of your holiday should you need any information or advice.
