The Experience

Immerse yourselves in sunflower fields and woodland, with hens scratching about and ducks on the pond. You have your own private terrace and the large gardens are yours to wander: help yourselves to vegetables and fruit in season, collect eggs from the hens, float in the cooling pool or simply look for a special spot and sit with a book.

Children will love the games area and free bikes, and a special terrace above the pool where you can sit under the pergola (perhaps with something from one of the surrounding vineyards) while you keep watch over little swimmers.

It’s just 2kms to the nearest shops and there are medieval bastide towns to explore with colourful weekly markets. Bring your shopping back to kitchens with all the gear – eat inside or out with a barbecue under the stars.

Reviews

An idyllic countryside retreat for families, or those just wishing to unwind and enjoy rural living! Perfect to recharge your batteries!
Inspected Anne Sawday's Inspector

What a fantastic week at Drake Gite with our 5 and 14 year old. Everything we needed on our doorstep and huge grounds for playing and exploring. The spacious Gite was also such a luxury. The perfect place to relax and unwind. Thanks so much to our lovely hosts, Gill and Simon who were very helpful particularly with places to visit and things to do. The Gite was a great base for discovering this beautiful region of France.

We have had an amazing stay here – it has been perfect for our two children, 13 and 8. Gill and Simon have really thought of everything and those little details make a hugh difference. I could never get over the peace and tranquillity here and the space and freedom. The pool was like a hotel pool, and the nature and wildlife around us was really special. The weather was so glorious for most of the holiday that we spent most of the time at the gîte, but we did have a lovely day out at Chateau de Biron and a wonderful night at the marché gourmand in Fongrave.


Vanora, Neil, Alistair & Dominic, Nottingham

Thank you for the most wonderful stay! We all have so many fantastic memories of the week we spent here and don’t want to leave! Thank you for all the toys for the boys – they loved being in the pool and playing with the sinkers and inflatables. We hope to come back soon.


Craig, Rosie, Daisy & Alice, London

Thank you so much for our second wonderful holiday here! The pool is so peaceful and the pool surround is beautiful. Thank you for your hospitality and suggestions to make our stay even better. We also loved the night markets and would definitely recommend them. Thank you again for such a wonderful stay.


Location

The neighbourhood

This is a particularly peaceful setting in the Lot-et-Garonne with wildlife and many birds. Walks through pretty countryside spotting wild orchids in the fields and biking along quiet roads will be memorable. If you don't want to cook there's a good restaurant 2kms away, La Plaisance in St Barthélemy or Tombeboeuf has a good choice. Many of the local towns have night markets during the summer which are magical.

Local points of interest from Gill & Simon Webster

  • With its rolling hills, bastide villages, stunning gardens, wheat fields, sunflowers, fruit & nut orchards and friendly people, Lot et Garonne is reminiscent of Tuscany. It's a relatively undiscovered region of France with historical links to England!
  • A food and wine lover's paradise; Sévenne is within easy reach of the most famous French wine growing regions - Bordeaux, Medoc, Sauternes, St Emillion, Buzet, to name but a few! Most of the worlds foie gras, prunes & walnuts come from this region too!
  • The Aquitaine region is steeped in history. Temple sur Lot & Le Jardin des Nėuphars, where Monet found his inspiration for his garden! Châteaux and bastide villages are perched high and overlook the stunning landscape. Lots to see and do!
  • Artists, writers & nature lovers find the tranquil setting inspirational; paint the sunflowers, listen to the numerous varieties of birds, watch red squirrels, read books from the library. Or just relax and recharge your batteries beside the 12x6m pool!
  • For the more active there are theme / water parks, (Parc en Ciel, Parc des Pirates, Walibi), canoeing, cycling, ballooning, all within an hour’s drive. Horse riding in the village & golf 10 mins away. Or stay and enjoy our 2.7 acre garden.
  • Activities at Sévenne include; table tennis, swimming pool and water games, badminton, volleyball, darts, football, boules, trampoline, swings, bicycles.
