The location is exceptionally pretty, peaceful and private, the nearest neighbour being 320m away. This character property is hedged almost all around with Spanish laurel, and is approached along a 320m drive through wrought iron gates. Nearest market towns are Fleurance and Condom, each about 15 minutes’ drive. Further afield, Pau can be reached in about 1½ hours for shopping and for its airport connections to the UK and Holland.
