About the host
Hosted by Donna Cohen
Michael and I have been married for 36 years and have lived in France for the last 13 years. We run a photographic, floor plan and videography company called La Huppe Photos et Plans where our clients include gite/chateaux/holiday home owners and people selling their property, and have recently opened a dedicated atelier to teach stained glass.
We have spent some time renovating Rooy and La Porcherie, and also having lived here during this time we have ensured that our Gite has all the necessities you would need for a fabulous holiday home. We recently sold our other gite and had attained 24 x 5* reviews. We of course will continue this trend for your benefit and ours.
Why they chose this property
In our private, unspoiled setting we often spot wildlife in the fields, including the elusive and shy wild boar and plenty of deer that graze in the early evening like cows in the field in front of the decked area of the gite. We have seen the wild boar many times and the size of a male wandering across the road is a site to behold. This is not the norm, but you might be lucky enough to see one. We have 11 hectares for you to roam about. Although rural, quiet and private, we enjoy the beautiful bastide town of Eymet on our doorstep with its multitude of restaurants, architecture and markets. It is not often that you find a property with hectares of unspolit rural highland with Scots pine & juniper with its own nature trails, that is still close to a thriving & beautiful bastide town of Eymet. Which contrary to public opinion is very French indeed. Expats only make up 18 percent of the population. Very French with English familiarity and friendly locals. An excellent place to practice your French in a friendly environment. We have many excellent restaurants suited to different budgets in our area, and the night life is excellent in summer. We sit in the middle of many landmark bastide towns, churches & chateaux, including the quaint village of Issigeac and its famous Sunday morning market. Monflanquin, Villeneuve, Bergerac, Perigueux and Agen are worth a visit along with the famous vineyards St Emillion and Monbazillac. The highest sand dunes in Europe can be found at Arcachon and Bordeaux the capital of Nouvelle Aquitaine is also well worth a day trip. Plenty to do and see.
What makes this property unique
This unique place has a style all its own. Part of our ancient, little hamlet, La Porcherie is spacious, quiet and private. Sleeping 2 admist the history of older times. Renovated to a high standard with antique pieces to compliment its history. La Porcherie is within 5 minutes drive to the stunning town of Eymet with its many restaurants and markets. We welcome you to rest here on your travels and take in all SW France has to offer.
