Brief details:- Garonne is one of four luxury gites on the same site which when combined make up a large property called Mirathon. The tranquil area cannot fail to attract with Bergerac in the north and Bordeaux to the west. Nestling in undulating countryside the gite is surrounded by activities suitable for everyone. You can be visiting historic castles, exploring bastide towns, wine tasting, cycling, play tennis, go horse riding, discover fantastic resturants - whatever. However, if you want to relax in beautiful surroundings taking an occasional dip in the stunning 11mx5m Roman pool and lying in the sun with a glass of wine in your hand; the choice is yours. |
