Domaine de Rambeau

Private dining area at the rear of the cottage

Domaine de Rambeau

Dating from 1784, Domaine de Rombeau is situated in a lovely hilltop position in Castelmoron-sur-Lot in the peaceful Lot-et-Garonne countryside, 39km from Agen and 60km from Bergerac - both of which have airports.

The property offers a delightfully renovated barn (the Cottage, or Gite) with 5 en suite bedrooms. The Cottage has access to the large heated pool with its own 'beach' and 'swim against current', there's also a jacuzzi and sauna. Everything is set within the walled courtyard of the main Maison de Maitre Farmhouse.

Depending upon the size of your group, during July and August, you are offered the opportunity of booking up to 4 of the 4 additional boutique style ensuite rooms in the Farmhouse which are otherwise let on a Bed & Breakfast basis. When all 4 rooms are booked you are guaranteed exclusivity of the Domaine. In total there are 9 bedrooms and 9 bath / shower rooms, sleeping up to 24 in comfortable beds. The French and English owners are willing to provide breakfast and/or evening meals which are payable locally.

An array of activities are offered in the area, such as horse riding and cycling and the owners can even arrange for you to try archery. Bike hire is also available locally and bikes to suit your specific needs, plus cycle helmets, can be delivered to Domaine de Rambeau for you. Wine lovers can visit the local vineyards of Duras, Buzet, Bergerac and Marmande. The night market in Laparade, just a short drive away is not to be missed.

At the end of each rental we ask our clients for comments on their stay - we hope that the following comments will help making your choice of property easier

Gracious hosts with a fantastic knowledge and enthusiasm for the local area, but far from intrusive. We particularly enjoyed an evening visit to a farmers market and festival. Secluded spot with splendid panorama of rolling farmland by day and spectacular views of the night sky after sun down. Light and sound pollution is all but non-existent, bar indigenous wildlife. Plenty of space and more than ample facilities maintained to the highest standard. (August 2018)

The house was amazing and has been renovated to a very high standard the highlight was the pool area. The owner went above and beyond to cater for us and to accommodate the children. French Gite Holidays were excellent and so helpful with all of our enquiries. (July 2016)
