A great place to stay and relax in this beautiful situation. Idyllic is the word that comes to mind. Great location for exploring wider or just lazing in the hammocks or by the pool. Our family had a fantastic time and Andy and Neil were superb hosts and we look forward to returning soon!
Andy & Neil have been absolutely wonderful, kind and thoughtful during our stay at their place, and provided a lot of excellent advices about what to do in the surroundings. Their cottage - a former farm - is lovely and very quiet and their garden is a piece of heaven. Everything was very clean and tidy. We will come back for sure !
C’est un lieu magique pour se ressourcer avec la nature. Un cottage agréable avec des hôtes très charment et très gentil ainsi que rex le chien trop mignon. Un accueil chaleureux. Le gîte Joséphine était impeccable, grand espace de vie, très très propre et la décoration hyper sympa. Merci à Neil et Andy pour avoir fait de nos vacances des souvenirs inoubliables.
We spent a full week with our 3 kids at Andy’s and Neil’s, and enjoyed very much the place and the hospitality of our hosts. The location is perfect for a quiet time away from crowds, and at the same time still close to many attractions. The gîte is very nicely furnished and decorated and Andy is very attentionate with his guests.
We are connected to commune of Fonroque, and our nearest town is Eymet.
Eymet
Eymet is our nearest town. It is a Medieval bastide, typical of this region. It has a lovely town square which holds a twice-weekly market during the summer. Eymet is in a sequence of Bastide towns in the area, and the only one with its own chateaux (albeit now a restored ruin, great for outdoor cinema and other town events). Eymet has a variety of restaurants: French gourmet, simpler French cuisine, Italian, Peruvian, Crepes, English, a takeaway pizza pop up. Bookings are recommended throughout the summer and we can help you with this.
Bergerac
Bergerac is our nearest big town. In fact, it’s the largest town for miles around. The Dordogne is renowned for its lack of big cities, adding to the clean air and gentler way of life. Bergerac is a bustling town only 25 minutes north of Cottages de Garrigue on the main D933 road. It shows off the Dordogne river beautifully and has the rustic charm of an ancient French town. There is excellent shopping of all descriptions in Bergerac, plus many restaurants and cafes. It is excellent for a day or night out – or both.
Cottages de Garrigue is located about 5km from Eymet in the SW of the Dordogne, France. We are about 20mins drive from Bergerac airport, 1hr35 drive from Bordeaux airport and 2hr15 from Toulouse airport.
Many of our guests drive from the UK, having taken either the ferry to Caen or St Malo (both 6hr30) or the Eurotunnel to Calais (9hr30).
We recommend a car to get the most from the area, whether your own or car hire (nearest is Bergerac airport; 20 minutes away).
We are well placed for plentiful local wine tastings, restaurants, chateaux and food stores. Further afield are the popular tourist towns of Bergerac (25mins), Sarlat (1hr45), Perigueux (50mins). The incredible world famous costal dunes at Des Landes de Gascogne are 2hr30. You can drive to the French/Spanish border at Biarritz/San Sebastian in about 3hrs.
