Photos and Description of the Duras vacation farmhouse rental Two bedroom gite sleeping four people near Duras

On the site of the 17thC farmhouse 'Mirathon' the old farm outbuildings have been carefully restored to form four individual gites together with pool . These may be rented individually or in a group. The gite Garonne with its thick stone walls to keep it cool in the summer has one double and one twin bedroom. Often described as the French Tuscany this tranquil area steeped in bastide town history cannot fail to attract people of all tastes with Bergerac to the North and Bordeaux to the West. The farmhouse nestles in undulating countryside and surrounded by activities suitable for all ages. You can fill your day visiting small 13thC bastide towns, go kayaking along the Dordogne, horse riding, cycling, play tennis, poke around one of the many markets, discover fantastic restaurants - whatever. however if you simply want to relax in beautiful surroundings, taking the occasional dip in the stunning 11m x 5m Roman pool and doxing in the sun with a glass of wine; the choice is yours.
