Brief details:- Gascogne is one of four luxury gites which when combined on the site are called Mirathon. The tranquil area cannot fail to attract with Bergerac to the north and Bordeaux to the west. Nestling in undulating countryside the gite is surrounded by activities suitable for all ages. You can explore bastide towns, visit historic castles, go wine tasting, cycling, horse riding, play tennis, discover fantastic restaurants, whatever. However, if you simply want to relax in beautiful surroundings, taking an occasional dip in the stunning 11m x5m Roman salt water pool and lying in the sun with a glass of wine in your hand; the choice is yours. |
