La Maison Montignac has a home-from-home feel because the owners spend several months of the year there themselves and have lovingly restored and improved this fabulous building. Offering spacious accommodation with all of the facilities you could wish for, set amongst large landscaped gardens of approximately 1 acre with stunning views over the valley and an easy 20-minute walk (2km) to the historical bastide town of Monsegur which has a selection of shops, bars, restaurants and a weekly market every Friday. There are also vibrant weekly night markets every Wednesday in the peak summer months. Choco Latine boulangerie which produces artisan bread, fine French patisserie and chocolates on-site is a favourite of the owners and there is a well-stocked Carrefour supermarket 1.6km (1 mile) from the house just before you enter Monsegur .
The entire house and all facilities are for your exclusive use during your stay.
