Pautard - Self-catering house in Lot-et-Garonne
Pautard, 47150 Monflanquin, Lot-et-Garonne
Aquitaine,
Francia
Take a nightcap to the terrace as you gaze on Monflanquin, exquisitely illuminated at night. These little hilltop bastides are unique to the Dordogne and this one is a gourmet’s delight: three bakeries, a Thursday market, and a ‘cave à vin.’
Your refurbished house is well-equipped and snug, with a sociable living area and bedrooms up and down, one with remarkably low rafters. The housekeeper lives in the imposing manor, unmissable though part-hidden by trees. She pops over early each morning, so everything looks pristine. When not in Paris the owner lives in the manor too, with her retriever.
Table tennis, tennis, pool: all are for you. There’s masses of outdoor space for a party of eight, and rolling countryside beyond. Wallow in the jacuzzi, party round the barbecue, and book a table at Le Jardin under the arches of Monflanquin’s medieval square.

- Only 5km away is Monflanquin, a wonderful fortified town classed as one of the most beautiful in France. Janouille la Fripouille, an enchanting story-teller, will help you discover the medieval city on a nocturnal tour: what fun!
- The region offers many activities: lovely horseback riding in Monflanquin, golf in Castelnaud de Gratecombe, canoeing and kayaking in the Dordogne or just tennis at home followed by a relaxing moment around the pool or in the jacuzzi.
- For foodies, there are many markets around, each on a designated day (Monflanquin, Villereal, Issigeac). They’ll offer you delicious fruits, duck breasts, foie gras, ceps, walnuts, liquorice... a real treat!
- For nature lovers, walk in the Gavaudun valley, a classified natural site. It will take you through a multitude of magical places like the villages of Lacapelle Biron and Saint Avit as well as caves and natural shelters.
- The Dordogne with Sarlat and its many castles (Beynac, Marqueyssac, Castelnaud...) can be reached in just 1h30 from the house. You will dive in the heart of more than 5 centuries of history of France with breath-taking views of the Dordogne valley.
