Full Description: This superb 18th century house set in the lovely village of Monclar 800 feet above sea level and over looking the Garonne Valley south of the Dordogne is the perfect bolthole for those looking for a home with little maintenance and no garden makes this lovely town house in the perfect area. It also comes with a large barn/garage, with planning permission for a dwelling. Within a short drive you can be in deep country and a range of well mapped rambling and mountain bike routes that can take you for miles through tiny villages and hidden valleys. Riding is another wonderful way of discovering the area and there are three riding stables that can arrange accompanied treks. Along the river are stretches where you can water-ski and various places where you can hire canoes. Castelnaud (15 minutes) has an excellent championship 18-hole golf course with a driving range, putting green, pro shop and a restaurant. Tombeboeuf has a 9-hole golf course with a practice area and a pro shop. Both golf courses have clubs, trolleys and buggies for hire.
Park Walibi, a big amusement park near Agen, is always fun for children. So is the Magic Forest in Clairac, where gnomes and animals will help them discover a magical world. Clairac also has a wonderful model train museum. The Magique Chaudron is an angora goat farm where you can buy colourful angora sweaters and the children can help to bottle feed the kids at certain times of the year, and even help with the milking and cheese making.
The Lot-et-Garonne is an area of hills and valleys with a patchwork of fruit orchard market garden farms and fields of summer corn and sunflowers dotted with ancient hilltop villages. Villeneuve-sur-Lot was founded in 1253 and the Pont Vieux, the towns main bridge across the river, dates from about that time and is still used today. Villeneuve was also a major stopping place along the old pilgrim route to Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
Poujols stands on a hilltop, 2 kms southwest of Villeneuve, and a pleasant walk from the Porte de Pujols. The pretty, medieval village attracts many antique lovers and has a number of shops and art galleries in its lovely, restored half-timbered houses. There are two very good restaurants in the village and a Michelin starred restaurant across the valley from the village.
Penne dAgenais is 8 kms upriver from Villeneuve and another picturesque, hilltop village with a warren of tiny, steep lanes, lined with immaculately tidy stone and brick houses. Alphonse de Poitiers, the indefatigable brother of King Louis IX, founded Monflanquin, a beautifully preserved hilltop bastide and one of the finest examples of its kind, in 1256. Villereal is an unspoiled bastide town near the River Dropt, 13 kms north of Monflanquin. The Place de la Halle, the large, main central square, has a fine 14th century timbered covered market, overlooked by an impressive, twin-towered 13th century church.
The vineyards of Buzet, Duras and Bergerac are all within an hours drive. The Bordeaux vineyards, including Saint Emilion (a must) and Cahors are about 90 minutes.
