Lot & Garonne Tourist Board 3 Stars

Bégou is a charming Perigourdine barn of local honey-coloured stone, located in SW France in the department of the Lot-et-Garonne, very close to the Dordogne, mid-way between the picturesque historic bastide towns of Monflanquin and Villereal. The property enjoys an elevated, yet very private situation, with magnificent views over low wooded hills and fields.

The Barn is converted into living accommodation of a very high standard with all the facilities required to ensure the perfect holiday. During the conversion from barn to luxury living accommodation, the floors were constructed of solid material. Then carefully covered with hand selected tiles, some Italian, some Portuguese, but all of the very highest quality. The result is an attractive flooring, cool during the heat of summer, warm and cosy in winter due to the underfloor heating.

Begou has four bedrooms, three bathrooms with shower and WC and a separate WC, to comfortably accommodate up to 9 people, plus a baby in a cot. The ground floor is mainly open plan, with a large comfortable lounge with sofas, arm chairs and satellite TV, while a large dining area means everyone can enjoy meals together when the weather prevents eating outside. The kitchen is fully fitted, and includes all modern appliances.

Outside of the 'high' season (July & August) take advantage of the cheaper flights by booking Bégou mid-week to mid-week.
