Photos and Description of the Duras vacation farmhouse rental Two doubles, one twin and one single bedroomed gite

On the site of the 17thC farmhouse 'Mirathon' the outbuildings have been carefully restored to form four individual gites together with pool.    Each property may be taken individually or in a group.  The gite Dordogne  has a stunning balcony overlooking the surrounding countryside with thick stone walls and depending on the configuration of beds can sleep five or seven people - plus cots. This tranquil area with undulating countryside cannot fail to attract people of all tasteswith Bergerac to the north and Bordeaux to the west. The gite is surrounded by activities suitable for everyone. You can fill your day visiting small 13th century bastide towns, go kayaking along the Dordogne, horse riding, cycling, play tennis, or discover fantastic restaurants - whatever. However if you simply want to relax in beautiful surroundings, taking the occasional dip in the stunding 11m x 5m Roman pool and lying in the sun with a glass of wine; the choice is yours.

Golf enthusiasts will love the renowned Chateau de Vigiers course (30 mins) and other courses nearby.  Children can happily spend a day at the nearby Aqua Park or should the unthinkable happen, rain, an undercover play park.Not to be missed out of any itinerary is Bergerac with its fine old buildings and boat trips along the Dordogne.  It is very easy to spend a day in Bordeaux hopping on and off the trams to  add some culture to your holiday with some sightseeing.
