Charming house in old Nérac in the heart of Gascony

Located in the historic town of Nérac, in Gascony, South west France, the house is easily reached from Bordeaux or Toulouse via train and is just a short drive to San Sebastian in Spain. It’s the perfect base from which to explore the surrounding wine regions and a great “home base”.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Gascony back in the summer of 2012 after taking a food photography workshop in the area. We love that it's so "undiscovered" yet there is SO much to discover - great food and wine (and Armagnac!), beautiful countryside, quaint towns and very friendly people.
What makes this property unique
maison de la fontaine is conveniently located just steps from the summer night market (June - Sept every year) where you can enjoy local food and wines and entertainment with the locals! Just minutes from the fabulous Saturday morning market and a 20 minute drive to Agen. The house is close to both Bordeaux and Toulouse making it the ideal home base for day trips in the area.
