Vacation Rental Description
For a taste of the good life, take time out at Domaine de France, a restored manor house with a converted barn and 11 by 5 metre swimming pool, set in 5 ha on the outskirts of Penne d’Agenais. We’ve spent two years restoring and developing the property; now come and enjoy our warm hospitality and accommodation, either in Chambre d’Hotes (Bed & Breakfast) or in one of our 3 self catering 'Gites' (cottages).
“A perfect stop”, “The most beautiful and peaceful place we’ve ever stayed at in France” – just two quotes from 2005 visitors.
