“A blessed little corner of south-west France made up of gently
rolling hills, fields of corn and sunflowers, winding roads empty of
cars and pretty little towns and villages, where people always have
time to talk to you.
It's like an unspoilt Tuscany or Provence, and I'd better shut up
now or I'll be responsible for spoiling it.”
Sam Taylor, describing
the Lot-et-Garonne
in 'The Observer' |

If your criteria is an
outstanding gite
in a
picturesque
area,
then "Bienvenue a
Téoulés Cottage!"
Here you will find
yourself centred in a hidden part of France;
a picturesque landscape of
single-track
lanes winding past vineyards, orchards and sunflower fields to beautiful
old
Bastide villages.*
You will be living in a
tastefully renovated 400 year-old farm cottage in this
lovely, quiet,
virtually undiscovered area of Aquitaine
where, some 100 kms south-east of Bordeaux, two of France's
principle rivers meet, so giving our
"Département" its name - Le Lot-et-Garonne.

 The area
surrounding Téoulés Cottage is
known locally as "Le Pays de Confluence" and is an area
of history and discovery.
There is a surprise
around almost every corner, over every hill. For example, did you know that Monet found and bought his famous water-lilies
here in the Lot-et-Garonne?
The nursery where he bought them and had them shipped
to Giverny still exists and is
just a 'stone's throw' away.
So, why not come to us and
discover more
places like this - places, vistas and vantage points that you might never find
without the helpful and detailed guide notes we provide.

 Why not take some time to explore and enjoy the
great food and wine this region has to offer. Meet the charming and
incredibly friendly local people. Relax and enjoy yourself in our pleasant garden. Swim,
sunbathe or sit with a glass of excellent local wine in the
shade of the cottage's hazelnut and poplar trees.
Take an evening stroll in the peace and quiet of our
adjoining plum orchard
(the fruit of which contributes to the production of the
world-famous "Agen" prunes). If you want a self-catering holiday with a difference,
staying in quality accommodation in a beautiful, un-crowded
and unspoilt area of France, then
"Téoulès Cottage" offers you a great opportunity |
