Set amid the gentle landscapes of the northern Lot-et-Garonne, close to the Dordogne and Gironde border, Montaillac is a beautifully restored country home that captures the timeless charm of rural France with every stone, shutter and rural view – you may even be fortunate enough to stay when summer sunflowers are in rotation.
Inside, original stone arches and exposed beams frame spacious living areas designed for sociable gatherings and relaxed moments alike. There are two generous sitting rooms, one with a fireplace and the other centred around a wood-burning stove. The farmhouse-style kitchen is fully equipped and leads directly to the garden terrace, while the atmospheric dining room invites candlelit dinners that stretch late into the evening. Each of the four ensuite bedrooms upstairs offers a restful sanctuary, three with super-king or twin options, the fourth with a four-poster double bed.
Outside, the setting is glorious. A wide lawn rolls gently away from the house, fringed by trees and open farmland. The private, heated pool sparkles in the sun, flanked by a spacious terrace with loungers and a shaded terrace complete with barbecue. Whether you’re basking in the sunshine, enjoying a leisurely lunch or watching the sky soften at dusk, every corner of Montaillac feels designed for lingering.
Around a 15-minute drive from both Eymet and Duras, Montaillac offers easy access to the region’s celebrated food markets, vineyards and hilltop towns. Local bakeries and shops are just a short drive away, while day trips to Bergerac, Saint-Émilion or even the Atlantic coast promise rich cultural excursions. For lovers of food, wine, and slow living, this part of south-west France is a dream.
Whether you’re gathering with family or sharing a special stay with friends, Montaillac promises a restorative holiday in the heart of the French countryside.
- There are often views of sunflowers in the summer, however this does depend on what rotational crop may be growing in the surrounding fields.
