About this house rental

This old farm, renovated and expanded over the decades to finally accommodate Les Papillons de Baccara, consists of two charming gîtes tastefully decorated on a property of 7 hectares of greenery and serenity. There you will find a salt water swimming pool to bask in the sun, the shade of old walnut trees to relax and admire the starry sky without any light pollution.
The property also has an approved microlight landing strip for budding and experienced aviators.
Young and old will also be able to meet Oscar, our donkey, and Black and White, the property's goats.

The Baccara cottage 4* consists of a large bedroom upstairs with a king size bed (180x200), a bathroom with bathtub and Italian shower, double sink and separate toilet.
On the ground floor a large living room with well-equipped kitchen, a living room with convertible sofa bed (140x200).

Gastronomy and wine: We are surrounded by producers of Armagnac and excellent Côtes de Gascogne, such as the domains of Polignac, Chiroulet, and many others. Gascony is a gourmet country - duck and goose confit and breast, foie gras, Lectoure melons and Agen prunes can be found in the many local markets and restaurants. The dream for gourmands and gourmets. Complete guides to good tasting spots available.
Tourist attractions: villages, medieval bastides such as Laressingle and the moats of Fourcès. Historical monuments such as Roman Seviac or Flaran Abbey. Day trips to the pine forests and Atlantic surf beaches of Les Landes; in Biarritz, the Basque Country (and Lourdes) or the Pyrenees. Toulouse and Bordeaux are also easily accessible. Guides also available.

Activities: golf in Guinlet (18 holes). But also the Gondrin water leisure park, tennis, horse riding, boating on the nearby canal and river, and several pleasure lakes. The Nogaro rail bike, the thermal baths of Castera Verduzan, Barbotan les Bains and Lectoure, the numerous flea markets, in the Gers all audiences can be satisfied. The property is located very close to the greenway which leads from Eauze to Condom for beautiful walks or bike rides. And also close to the Camino Real, / Chemin de St Jacques, the ancient pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. Many modern pilgrims still travel this route today, and it is easy to get to Laressingle (8kms) or Montreal (4K Ms) from the property.

What a great little find this is, If you're looking for a place for 2, restful surroundings, 5* accommodation (it was mint) and an opportunity to explore a wonderful area of Gers in SW France, Baracca des Papillons is it. The accommodation provides all you need from a practical point of view but is done to perfection. Thank goodness there was a lovely saltwater pool to get up to enjoy as the bed was so comfy and the nighttime soooo quiet you couldn't be blamed for the odd sleep-in.... Add to this the 7 hectares of land, filled with grass flower meadows woodland and grape vines that is at your disposal to take in a stroll morning or evening, equally blissful. Our hostess Celine and husband Phillipe were so very helpful, nothing was too much trouble and Celine was great with our little puppy who was smitten and he would sit outside her front door each morning waiting for cuddles. Lots of lovely places to visit in easy reach, don't miss Larreessingle, beautiful village and ice cream that must not be missed, (best ever). There are others too if you can tear yourself away from the pool. Our only disappointment was we only booked one week!! We hope to be back very soon. Debbie, Adrian & Truffle, Devon UK
