Overview of the house

The space

The château can accommodate up to 30 guests across up to 15 en suite bedrooms, with generous living space for families and groups. Its U-shaped layout provides spacious communal areas as well as quieter corners for relaxation. The west wing houses seven of the larger bedrooms, together with the formal dining room and salon. The east wing features a 62m² grand salon and kitchen, ideal for gathering together for meals, as well as six additional bedrooms. On the first floor, guests will find a fully air-conditioned games room with a billiards table, games, card tables and a smart TV. Set within 8 hectares of private grounds, the estate is surrounded by mature trees, open lawns and native planting. Guests can dine al fresco on the terrace, enjoy the heated swimming pool and summer kitchen, or make use of the outdoor petanque, ping pong and croquet facilities.

The neighbourhood

The property is situated in the peaceful countryside of Lot-et-Garonne, close to two charming villages. Moirax is less than 6 km away and is home to the remarkable 11th-century Cluniac Priory, one of the region's significant historic monuments. The village also offers a small selection of shops and restaurants, including the Michelin-starred Auberge Le Prieuré. Just 5.5 km away, Laplume offers local shops, regular farmers' markets and attractive walking and cycling routes, including a botanical trail with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. For a wider range of shopping, dining and cultural attractions, the historic city of Agen is only 15 km away.
