Reviews
Elly en Ben from Rosmalen,
Ruim huis met prachtige overkapping waar het heerlijk vertoeven is, ook als het minder weer is. Goede bedden, fijne douche en je pakt nergens mis op. Vanuit de spa en het terras heb je een geweldige uitzicht op het mooie dal en het zwembad. Gastheer Vincent en vriendin Marianne zijn druk in de weer om je verblijf nog aangenamer te maken. Fijn plekje om helemaal tot rust te komen in een prachtige omgeving en wij willen zeker nog een keer terugkomen.
Rob from Velserbroek,
Een prima locatie, waar we (2 volwassenen plus hond) met veel plezier een week hebben doorgebracht.
Vincent is een prima gastheer, attent zonder opdringerig te zijn, het onderkomen boven verwachting. Ik was vooraf wat sceptisch, 9,5 gemiddeld, er zal toch zeker wel wat aan te merken zijn, maar nee, we kunnen niks anders bedenken dan dat we direct weer terug zouden willen gaan.
Kernwoorden, rust (nou ja, een enkele tractor), ruimte (zoveel als je wilt), comfort (zwembad, ruime douche, goede bedden), uitzicht (onder genot van hapje en drankje)Laurens en Joke de Vries from Culemborg,
Wij vierden een jubileum: deze nazomer waren we voor de 5e keer bij Vincent!
Eerder in Van Gogh en Cezanne, nu voor de 2e keer in Gauguin, echt onze favoriet!
Net als vorig jaar hadden we in de 1e week van oktober prachtig weer; veel zon, een windje, af en toe een kleine bui en de nachten heerlijk koel.
Lekker buiten lezen, lunchen, een wijntje drinken, in de buitenkamer 's avonds eten en als de ochtenden fris waren: even de paletkachel aan.
Natuurlijk elke dag samen in de spa genieten van de laatste zonnestralen, met al bubbelend een glaasje witte wijn.
Bovendien gezellig bijpraten met gastheer Vincent; alleen jammer dat Anne Neel al weer naar Nederland was, nu hebben we nog steeds geen kennis gemaakt!
Vincent, alweer hartelijk bedankt voor je warme gastvrijheid en tot de volgende keer!
Restaurants, food & wine
We are close to the vineyards of Bergerac, Bordeaux, Duras and Cahors. There are several wine Chateaux you can visit. In Bergerac there is a wine museum and a winery where you can taste and buy wine.
In the gite you will find a list of restaurants in the surrounding villages.
You can also buy the famous "Foi gras", the duck or goose liver, at various places and markets.
Every day there is a weekly market somewhere. The one on Sunday mornings in Issigeac is worth a visit.
There are also several night markets where you can eat local food.
Activities
Douzains lies in the Lot-et-Garonne department at the outer limits of the Périgord (Dordogne). The charm of Douzains and the beauty of its rolling hills make it an ideal holiday spot for anyone who loves peace and quiet, nature and beautiful old towns. Thanks to its favourable geographical location, it is easy to visit the bastide towns in the area from the gite: e.g. Monpazier, Villeréal, Castillonnès, Monflaquin.
But also the beautiful castles of Biron, Bonaquil and Duras are a stone's throw away. Of course, you can also take a larger tour to medieval towns such as Sarlat and Agen, and end it through the wine regions of Bergerac or Cahors. In July and August, the region hosts several markets, fairs and festivals. For example, every Thursday evening there is a night market" in Eymet, on Monday evening in Villereal, Friday evening Montaut. Every Sunday there is also a nice market in Isseac. For children, there are several amusement parks in the area, including Walibi-parc in Agen, Survival-parc in La Capelle-Biron. For a day of shopping, you can also visit Bergerac +/- 40 min and Bordeaux +/- 90 min.
