Property description

                             LES HIRONDELLES.

In the heart of the Aquitaine region of South West France, this 17th century farmhouse with attached holiday cottage / gite is situated in a quiet country lane in an area surrounded by fields of sunflowers and orchards.

Here you will find peace and quiet and the time to unwind and enjoy your favourite pastimes, walking, cycling, bird watching, fishing in the nearby rivers and lakes or just relaxing by the pool reading a favourite book.

The peaceful country lanes are perfect for either walking or cycling as there is very little traffic to worry about and whilst enjoying your pursuits, you may well come across a friendly bar or restaurant for a cool drink or perhaps an enjoyable lunch.
