Comfortable 3-bed/3-bath holiday home with heated pool and large natural garden
This characterful holiday home (a former barn) is on two levels with all bedroom and bathroom accommodation on the first floor, whilst the open plan living area has direct access to the gardens. There are two double-bedded rooms with en-suite showers and a twin-bedded room with family bathroom. Ideal for families and groups of adults alike. The property is in a small hamlet of just 6 houses surrounded by fields and woodland, 2.5 kms from the village of Loubès-Bernac. The village has a small supermarket open every morning for fresh bread, etc., and a restaurant with delicious food, open most days and very popular at lunchtimes. The highlights of our summer – weather apart – are the night food markets. Large gatherings in Eymet on Tuesdays, Monsegur on Wednesdays and Duras on Thursdays. There are others too many to mention here – but SUNDAY lunchtime in Soumensac during July and August is a must. Buy locally produced food and wine and sit under the lime trees with views across to the Pyrenees (you CAN see them, but only occasionally).
And, the highlight of any holiday in this part of Aquitaine is the Bataille de Castillone - a must see. Friday and Saturday nights - son et lumiere - action with a cast of hundreds. Great for all ages. https://www.batailledecastillon.com/index_uk.html

About the host
Hosted by Alison Wright
I moved to France in January 2000, whilst still young enough to enjoy it. I had spent most of my working life in the conference business and travelled all over the world.
Life here is wonderful - short winters and long summers. And with so much space around us to breathe deeply with no pollution. You should see the night skies!
I live a quiet life with my dog and three cats. After some reflexion I have realised that our nature is disappearing because of our gardening and farming methods. So, now, much of the garden has been left for the wild flowers and weeds to proliferate and the garden is full of tens (if not hundreds) of species of butterflies, moths, lizards etc and there are deer and hare in the garden first thing in the morning. At night, we have bats and glow worms and several species of owl. I even spotted a turtle dove last week. So, yes, I have a wild garden - but still lots of room for badminton and croquet.
I have also converted the smaller of the two swimming pools into a wildlife pond planted with water lilies and other aquatic plants. Some goldfish and a carp were put in two years ago and now there are many more! Such fun to watch and they feed from the hand.
I live on-site and I am here to help, but never to intrude.
Why they chose this property
I looked at so many different houses when I first moved here, but this just captivated me from the moment I entered the front door. The original part of the farmhouse dates back to the 18th Century and the kitchen (probably the only part lived in at that time) has enormous beams and a fireplace. Lots of changes have been made since then, but the property retains much of its original charm.
What makes this property unique
As well as providing comfortable accommodation , it is the outside space that is exceptional! It's a wildlife garden - a veritable haven for butterflies, bumblebees, praying mantis, stick insects and glow worms. Deer cross the garden (not always welcome when the roses are coming into bloom) and there is sheltered space for hare and hedgehogs. It's far away from any street lights so is probably one of the best areas for star gazing.
