La Mirabelle,
ideal for both adults and children, is a renovated 19th century
farmhouse with attached barn. Situated in Montazeau, in the
canton of Vélines, its location at the top of a valley
offers uninterrupted views across the countryside. Montazeau,5km
from Vélines, is bordered by two rivers, the Lidoire
to the north-west and the Estrop to the south-west, both of
which meander through the heart of the Dordogne Valley's rustic
countryside.
Four
individually designed bedrooms with ensuite facilities containing
state-of-the-art hydro showers. The rooms, with 150-year old
beams, wooden floors and wonderful art on the walls, offer
a great sense of space and airiness. Included is all bed linen
and towels.Spacious enough for 9 people, la grande cuisine/sitting
area is an exceptionally large room to cook, eat and relax.
With two large double ovens, both with rotisseries, it is
the perfect place in which to prepare meals, chill,relax and
enjoy. Bon Appetit

La
Mirabelle is set in two acres of gardens, with vineyards on
either side. The raised decked terrace around the pool is
a day-long suntrap. Catch the sun and have lots of fun. Further
deck areas (one with purpose built bbq), tables, chairs and
parasols, provide excellent areas for relaxing and eating
al fresco. For the more energetic there is a beach volleyball/badminton
located in the centre of the garden, Petanque, football and
archery situated in our grove of fruit trees.
Proximity to an excellent selection of restaurants, offering
a wide choice of local and cordon bleu cuisine. Within the
village of Montazeau there is La peche mignon,a splendid location
for traditional Alsace cuisine.In St Meard du Gurçon,
there are two splendid Restaurants, only 5km drive.
We
are also close to the bar 'La Pagode', run by our good friends
Marie Claude & Philippe. Great for beach food/snacks.
Le Lac de Gurson (10 mins): two beautiful lakes, one for fishing
and another (with lifeguard during the season) for swimming.
The lakes offer a range of leisure and sporting activities,
including fishing with a man-made beach to complement with
several bars and restaurants.

There
are markets in local towns and villages virtually every day of the
week throughout the area, although our particular favourites are
the bustling Saturday market in Sainte-Foy-La-Grande (12 mins) and
the Friday & Sunday markets in Libourne (30 mins). With all
the smells, aromas and wonderful produce you will find all the colours
of the rainbow, just waiting to be taken and turned into the most
amazing delicious dishes. To purchase local wine couldn't be easier,
pop next door, Chateau La Font du Parc, consistant medal winners.Superb
every day wine,red,white and rose,or for that special occasion-the
oak aged red,is a must.
St Emilion, of course, is one of the premier houses of the Bordeaux
wine region and the town, with its wonderful winding, cobbled streets
shouldn't be missed. St Emilion has many fabulous restaurants, sensational
architecture and plenty of opportunities for wine tasting in the
surrounding chateaux. Our favorite tour and tasting is Chateau Belair,
an experience not to be missed. Sensational wine and tour of their
caves.
Walking
and cycling around La Font du Parc (our local commune) or further
a field. Canoeing and kayaking along the Dordogne River. Tennis
is available at Ste Foy & St Antoine de Breuilh. Golfing: 18-hole
course at Chateau des Vigiers (20 mins), which also has a wonderful
restaurant and health spa and a 9-hole course at Chateau Les Merles.
Coast (1 hr), including Aracachon and the Dune du Playa (one of
the largest sand dunes in the world). A wonderful day out for all
the family.
