MONFLANQUIN - our village/
Monflanquin is a 13th. century mediaeval hilltop `Bastide` village. It is classified as `L`un des plus beaux villages de France`, and elected `one of the top ten villages in France` by the Daily Telegraph travel writers. When one sees the beautiful vaulted archways surrounding the central square, one can understand why. It is a thriving village supporting all the services you require - banks, post office, doctors, butchers, bakers, bars and a wide choice of restaurants. We also have a good sized Casino supermarket and our Thursday village market has been operating for over 750 years! The mediaeval square and streets of Monflanquin provide a unique and magical atmosphere.
|
THE LOCAL AREA
The local economy is essentially agricultural, with farmers growing large quantities of maize and sunflowers.The climate also favours the growing of grapes,strawberries, melons, fruits, nuts and tomatoes. The gently rolling countryside is dotted with 13th.Century villages and chateaux. The area produces very good and reasonably priced wine - Monflanquin produces its own `Caves des Sept Monts` white, rose and red wines. Sunflowers add a magical feel to the whole of the Lot et Garonne region.
|
OUR PROPERTIES
We are situated on about 1.3 acres of land, and have a further 2-bedroomed property sited further along the field. `The Cottage` has an en-suite bedroom and a house bathroom, and is ideal for a family or two couples. It is privately situated, and in no way overlooks `Volets Bleus`, so both properties retain their privacy. For further details on `The Cottage`please look at www.holidaylets.net and type in FA 1457 in the appropriate box.. `Volets Bleus` now has a TV [terrestrial and satellite ] with video/DVD player.

THINGS TO DO AND SEE.
The Lot et Garonne, our department, is just south of the Dordogne, and to the west of the Lot region.We are, therefore, ideally placed for the exploration of all these beautifull river valleys , rich in history, chateaux and mediaeval villages. For those who like to explore, then day visits to Cahors, Bergerac, Monpazier, Domme, Les Eyzies and St. Emilion are all possible.Our colourful local markets are always worth a visit. For the more active, then there is horse riding, cycling, canoeing, fishing and golf [ 9 and 18 holes]. Some 20 minutes away is a lake with a sand beach and a water slide. Pedaloes can be hired. Ballooning and microlighting are other possibilities.However, why not do what most of our visitors do - just flop around the pool, relax, and enjoy our local food and wine.

PROPERTY PURCHASE
We have lived here for many years, and have been heavily involved in land/property purchase, and in renovation projects. We are, therefore, able to offer help/advice and direct contact with builders, artisans and notaires.
