The house
The spacious and cosy holiday home '7 le Bourg Nord' will also be rented in the high season of summer 2024! Enjoy the space in the (living) rooms, swimming pool, garden, the lovely weather and the coolness in the house thanks to the very thick walls.
On the ground floor is a living room of 60 m2 with on one side a piano with beautiful warm sound, (dining) table and antique cupboard. The other side is a large sitting area of three sofas, with a TV (also Dutch channels). With large parties, the best place to sit is in the 30 m2 dining room at the large eight-person dining table, or in the garden of course at the extendable garden table under the 'shade tree'. Two pairs of sliding glass doors lead from the living room to terrace and back garden. The house has two fireplaces; not necessary in summer but very atmospheric. There are paintings everywhere, mostly Dutch scenes. Besides the necessary furniture, there is a CD player and a speaker set that can be connected to a phone/laptop.
The kitchen offers the usual comfort, including a Miele dishwasher, a 4-burner butane cooker, an electric oven and two fridges. There is ample equipment for large parties, including (lots of) pans, crockery, cutlery and countless additional items. In the hall is an extra cupboard with household items and microwave oven.
The antique staircase takes you to the next floor with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. There are summer duvets, pillows and flannel mattress covers for all beds. There are also woollen blankets for those who prefer. Preferably you should bring your own bed linen and kitchen linen (i.e. under sheet, duvet cover, pillowcase, hand and tea towels). If you really can't, please contact me and I'll see what I can do.
The pink bedroom has its own bathroom en-suite, with shower, sink and toilet. The double bed there is 180 cm wide and 2 metres long (two 90 cm mattresses), with twin-size duvet. The master bedroom was recently renovated and now has a wooden floor. Here there is also a balcony overlooking the back garden and swimming pool and a double bed (made up of two 90 by 190 cm single beds), with a twin-size duvet. Next to it is a spacious (green) bedroom with 2 single beds of 90 by 190 and single duvets. From here you can see the back garden as well as the medieval church and the landscape beyond. These 2 bedrooms share a bathroom with bath, shower, washbasin and a separate w.c. The master bedroom has a wardrobe/walk-in closet which is also storage space for blankets and pillows, 2 cots, high chair, ironing board and iron. (There is also a small area there that is for the owners and thus private).
The other wing of the first floor contains 2 smaller bedrooms, each with 2 single beds 190 cm long and 90 cm and 80 cm wide respectively. There are single duvets here. I myself also like to use the small room overlooking the church as a study. A simple shared bathroom belongs to these rooms, with shower, wash basin and a separate toilet. The attic is only used for the boiler and as private storage.
The shed contains a Miele washing machine and freezer, garden tools and lawnmowers. Use of the mower tractor only by arrangement.
We are always renovating. On the ground floor, all windows and window frames have been renewed with aluminium and double glazing. The bedroom windows are fitted with mosquito nets for a buzz-free night's sleep. The master bedroom has had a complete makeover. Renewal of the balcony will follow this spring, professional cleaning and care of the tiled floors (carreaux de gironde) and next autumn transformation of the dining room into a spacious living kitchen.
Because of the corona issues that are now only in the background, there is a small risk of not being allowed to go to France for a holiday. I have decided not to participate in the rebooking scheme" for which Gites offers the possibility. However, if you are not allowed to go to France as a tourist because of the corona pandemic, I will refund you the rent. You will then only pay a small amount to Gites. Gites has been informed of this.

The plot of holiday home 7 le Bourg Nord in Landerrouet-sur-Segur covers about 1800 m2 and is completely enclosed by farmers' fencing and on the street side by a wall about 80 cm high. The back garden and the swimming pool are not overlooked and you have a very pleasant wide view. There is plenty of lawn to play and laze on. Decorated with Mediterranean shrubs and trees. There are two terraces, various garden furniture, parasols, and at the back of the garden a larger tree that provides shade and under which a lovely summer breeze usually blows. There are an outdoor ping-pong table, picnic tables, and a simple barbecue.
The pool measures 6 x 12 m, has built-in steps at the 90 cm section and slopes to a depth of 240 cm. The "menhirs" flanking the pool on two sides give it a rustic character.
The bath can be closed with an electrically operated roller shutter. If you also close the clips on both short sides, you have 100% child safety! This roller shutter is also great for maintaining the water temperature on cool nights. Kindly keep an eye on it: Is the water level right? Does the water look fresh and clear? Does the pool need to be sucked with the hydrogen hoover once in a while? N.B. Nowadays, there is also an easy-to-use robot that can be lowered into the pool and will then do its cleaning job. There are clear instructions in the information book. The water is kept clean by an electrolyser that converts salt into sodium and chlorine. The chlorine content is low so friendly to eyes, ears and skin.
50 metres from the house are the village tennis court, a boules pitch, a small playground and picnic tables. You are also welcome here.
Friendly rolling varied landscape with a variety of agricultural destinations. (Vineyards, orchards, especially plum and walnut orchards, fields of maize and sunflowers, meadows with cows and horses, forestry).
Little tourism. Quiet friendly atmosphere. People take their time: you can really relax here. The village itself is lovely, quiet, with well-kept houses and yards and less than 100 inhabitants.
In the region there are some slightly larger towns, often characteristic with some medieval houses and in the "bastides" arcades around a square square. Many Romanesque churches, some abbeys, cast-iron market halls, several ancient wind and water mills. Particularly in high season, there are exhibitions and classical or jazz concerts here and there. The markets are fun and are listed in the book in the house. If you really want extensive shopping or to see more architecture and museums, you should go to Bordeaux (over an hour away by car, or take the train from la Reole). The picturesque town of Saint Emillion - famous for its beautiful red wines - is also worth a visit (1 hour's drive).

Rolieke Seghers-Cents from Terheijden,
De afgelopen 2 weken hebben we mogen genieten van dit ruime huis, de magnifieke tuin en het heerlijke zwembad. Voldoende slaapkamers met goede matrassen, een kleine keuken, maar van alle gemakken voorzien en voldoende leefruimte binnenshuis om met grotere gezelschappen te verblijven. In de tuin vind je heerlijk schaduw onder een grote boom en geniet je tegelijkertijd van een prachtig uitzicht. Het contact met de eigenaresse is heel prettig. Kortom, genoten!
Trudi beemster from Bovenkarspel,
Wij hebben met 8 volwassenen hier gelogeerd,
Een authentiek, koel huis, met genoeg voorzieningen wat betreft badkamer, toilet enz. Buiten ook voldoende zitplaatsen, een heerlijk zwembad, dat voor ons in augustus een noodzaak was, zo heet was het er.
We hebben hier enorm genoten, hadden goed contact met de eigenaresse, die af en toe contact opnam om te horen of alles naar wens was, heel prettig.
Kortom, rust en ruimte zoekers, zijn hier op een goede plek.
Voor uitstapjes pak je de auto, maar rondom het huis is het mooi wandelen.
Een aanrader!Maericke van der Burg from De Bilt,
Voor het eerst sinds jaren weer op vakantie naar Frankrijk! We kozen dit heerlijke stekje op basis van de locatie, ruime tuin, enorme zwembad en ruime slaapkamers. Met onze groep van 4 volwassenen en 5 kids was het werkelijk geweldig toeven in Landerrouet. Het weer liet wat te wensen over dus besloten we uit te vliegen naar Libourne, Bordeaux en saint Emilion. Genieten! Voor wie op zoek is naar een plek met weinig prikkels, geen toerisme en activiteiten is hier op zn plek! Het huis faciliteert in alles wat je nodig hebt op vakantie! Wij zijn een herinnering rijker.
Restaurants, food & wine
There are many delicacies for sale in the supermarkets but especially on the markets. Here you will find farmers selling their own seasonal products, which are delicious and therefore cost a lot. In the information folder in the house there are descriptions of restaurants. At our favourite (in la Reole) you eat very well, you are seated in a pleasant ambiance, inside or outside, and you are served well and finally you do not pay too much at all. In Monsegur the second favourite is unfortunately closed (due to Covid?) but there are still a few options left and you sit under the arcades overlooking the famous cast-iron market hall.
Of course there is a lot of good wine for sale: as well in the supermarkets as in the "caves cooperatives" and at the winegrowers / en chateaux. du Bordelais.
Activities
Swimming: in your own 6 by 12 metre pool. When the swimming hour is over, you can close the electric roller shutter and also close the clips on both short sides of the pool: The pool is then 100% CHILD SAFE and you enjoy your peace and quiet without any worries!
Making music at home: there is a fine piano with a nice warm sound and a music stand and some sheet music (piano and voice).
Walking and horse riding: beautiful and very slightly hilly surroundings. Varied. Many marked trails with descriptions (booklets in the house).
Golf: at Langon, and Marmande, both 20 km away. The courses are quite small. Pleasant atmosphere. You can also get a bite to eat there.
Bicycles: for hire in Sauveterre (from here a cycle path runs along the former goods railway line). Bordeaux also offers good cycling. Even "les Bordelais" do it!
There is a shuffleboard in the house and a ping-pong table outside.
There is a paved village tennis court 50 m from the house. You may use this. Unfortunately, maintenance has lagged behind in recent years so it no longer lends itself to serious tennis play. However, there is an excellent playground there for the little ones. A well-maintained and freely accessible tennis court is located in the neighbouring village, a 5-minute drive away.
Also visit the cosy markets in the surrounding towns: la Reole, Monsegur, Sauveterre, Langon.
The city of Bordeaux and Saint Emillion and also Bergerac are worth a visit. Closer to home, a marked walk through la Reole is interesting.
(For a language course you should go to Bordeaux, e.g. France Langue).
But above all, enjoy the rural tranquillity, the quieter pace of the French countryside and its conviviality, beautiful starry skies, delicious food and fine wines!

Additional price info and offers
We ask that you leave the house in good condition and tidy. (I.e. that the bins are empty and all other rubbish removed and that the cooker, countertop and kitchen table are clear and the dishwasher empty). The bathroom and kitchen will be cleaned by the maid and she will also vacuum. You will not pay extra for this.
Of course, she needs time and space to do her job. This means that you are welcome from 16:00 on the Saturday of arrival and that the house has to be vacated by 10:00 on the day of departure.
For longer rentals than 1 week and if there is a "last minute" situation, the rent can be reduced. Ask for the discount!
