Beautiful home away from home.
Visited this beautiful property early June. All furnishings of a high standard and very clean. Jules maintained the pool every day. The gardens are stunning and its on a nice quiet road if you want to get away from a busy town. Lots to do in the area, most within a 15 minute drive. Kim gave us some of her delicious homemade jam to add to a welcome basket of croissants and wine. We are hoping to get back and stay again. Recommend restaurants in Eymet, the Chateau at Duras, with coffee shops and bars in the centre. Marmande is lovely too and we would recommend La Creperie to eat. The churches are beautiful and gave a nice reprieve from the heat. You must go and see the chuch in Allemans Du Dropt. It is stunning. Nice bakery and grocery shop too. The cafe only sells drinks but let us bring goods from the bakery to enjoy with our coffee. Thanks to Jules and Kim for letting us stay in your beautiful rental. Regards Marie, Kevin & family.

Lovely gite
We had a great week at Gite Lavande. The house is very comfortable and well equipped, a perfect place to relax and enjoy the fantastic pool. Located within reach of lovely bastide towns and we enjoyed getting fresh croissants from the local boulangerie (5 mins drive) in the mornings. The owners live on-site and were extremely welcoming and helpful. Would highly recommend.
