Cottage in Villereal, Lot et Garonne, Aquitaine, France - Idyllic for the Bastides of Lot Et Garonne, Castles of Dordogne or Vineyards of Bergerac
Romantic quiet cottage situated down a long drive. Nouzieres Deux is an old stone farmhouse with exposed stone walls and oak beams throughout. Surrounded by open farmland, on early mornings or late evenings to may be lucky enough to see wild deer. It has been tastefully modernised recently and is now fully equipped for modern living to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable, yet retains its old world charm. You have your own private pool with spaces to sunbathe and relax, there are also shaded terraces for eating or a cooling drink if the summer sun gets too hot. The bastide towns of Villeréal and Issigeac are only 5 minutes drive away and have an excellent range of restaurants and local services. They have weekly markets on Saturday and Sunday mornings respectively. The weekly markets are the best place to find fresh, local produce, fruit and vegetables and the many regional delicacies and ingredients required in Périgourdin gourmet meals. The market’s other role as a convivial meeting place cannot be underplayed; sauntering past attractively laden stalls, bumping into friends and acquaintances are all part of the market’s charm."
About Roy a'Court
This is our home from home in France and look forward to retiring there soon in the meantime we hope you enjoy our property as much as we do.
Roy a'Court purchased this farmhouse in 2014
Why Roy a'Court chose Lot-et-Garonne
During the previous 12 years or before purchasing Nouzières so we have explored all the regions in France on holidays. Always staying in gîtes, chambres d'hôtes or small hotels, when the opportunity arose we took the next step and purchased Nouzières Deux. Having fallen in love with the French lifestyle, the people, climate and of course the markets, the Lot et Garonne/Dordogne area seems to fit perfectly with all our plans to retire here. The region is quiet, yet close enough to the essential necessities and we have made a lot of new friends in the short time we have been here.
What makes this farmhouse unique
The location here is quiet and peaceful, you can sit and relax, watch deer across the field, but with the benefits of essential services nearby. It is uniquely located between the historic tourist locations of the Dordogne, vineyards of Bergerac and the bastides of the Lot et Garonne.
Guestbook comments from the manager
We both agreed that your house is absolutely beautiful and we had a relaxing and peaceful time there.
The electric fans came in very useful at night but we are not complaining as the weather was lovely.
A big thank you for the barbecue it came in very handy and it works a treat and surprising easy to clean.
With temperatures in the mid thirties it’s no surprise that the pool got a lot of use.
We did get to see some deer leaping across the fields on our last day which was nice.
We both loved your picture above the fireplace and I think we will be looking to buy one for ourselves.
Thank you again for the use of your house and we will definitely recommend it to our friends and family.

Such a shame to have to come home ..........
We have just returned from a wonderful week away and have to say this is one of the best if not the best self catering property we have stayed in. It is well laid out and well furnished and equipped so was very comfortable and enjoyed by us all.
And like one of the previous reviewers we were also very appreciative of the fans as it was a very warm week - so the pool was also well used and tested and given a big thumbs up by the boys.
The property is in a rural area and it was lovely sitting out in a evening with the solar lights prettily changing colours and looking up at the sky and seeing the stars so very clearly.
The boys also enjoyed the DVD's selection (Star Wars) and there was also a good selection of books if you had forgotten to pack your own.
What you do realise is how big France really is so we decided to combine trips out in the morning (such as to the Crytal Cave, St Christophers Rock, a paddle down the Dordogne River as well as the brilliant Crazy golf course) with an afternoon at the pool. The neighbours were friendly as was everyone we met and we tried speaking french which I think was well received if not necessarily correct! As always never enough time to see it all.
The daily ritual of choosing fresh croissants and chocolatines as well as the baguette for lunch (not forgetting the lovely pastries too) was also easy with Villereal just down the road with easy access and parking.
It was a shame to have to come back home but we would recommend this property for anyone looking for a great place to relax and also experience a little taste of French life.
Thank you Roy and Angie for your hospitality, we all had a fabulous time.

Perfect for a relaxed French holiday
This is a beautiful old farmhouse in a gorgeous location with everything you need for great relaxing holiday. We have stayed there twice now and it's hard to beat.
Lovely villa, great pool and fine views
The villa is located in beautiful countryside between the characterful small towns of Issigeac and Villareal. It's a nice conversion of an old stone building with exposed timbers upstairs - mind your heads when walking around in the dark. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking meals, there's also a gas fired barbecue on the patio. There are great views all around and particularly to the rear when you are having dinner outside. The house is set well back from the road down a private drive that is shared with a neighbouring property. The pool is saltwater rather than chlorine, immaculately clean and of a good size and depth. Very good all round.
Beautiful home in an ideal setting
The house lived up to all expectations and we felt at home as soon as we arrived. The front terrace was perfect for morning coffee, breakfast and a chat and the pool terrace gave us welcome shade as well as some amazing views over the countryside. Evening markets in the surrounding bastides or on a farm, tasting local produce and drinking local wine were definitely memories we will recall during English winter evenings. Cycle routes without traffic, brocante mooching and sampling the local hospitality all helped to make our holiday very enjoyable and totally relaxing. Well equipped, clean and tastefully decorated Nouzieres Deux really was a home away from home.
Peaceful relaxing rural retreat
Thank you for the most wonderful relaxing holiday. We loved the property. It had everything we needed and was very tastefully decorated and full of character. It was great to have two terraces and the pool was perfect. Watching the sunset and listening to the frogs in the beautiful countryside was the best way to relax in the evening. The area was very unspoilt and we loved the markets and enjoyed a cold beer watching the world go by in Villereal. We are not people who normally go back to the same place but we loved it so much that we might just have to make an exception. Thank you again
