The epitome of countryside charm, this home is situated on a hilltop overlooking the picturesque landscape of Moncrabeau.

You can even pick fruit from the trees and grapes from the vines for the meals you’ll prepare in the small summer kitchen. Children will love the trampoline and table tennis, while grown-ups will enjoy the 3-kilometre walk into the riverside village of Moncrabeau for the weekly market.

With the Pyrenees in the distance, this beautiful chateau sits in the Pays Basque, near the Spanish border. If you asked a child to draw a fairytale castle, this is probably what they would come up with – ivy-dappled turrets and a rose-pink hue. Acres of tree-filled grounds surround this home, where you’ll find a private swimming pool for lazy days on loungers and a tennis court with an automatic ball machine if you want to practice your serve. There’s plenty of room for the group to dine outside, admiring the pretty facade of this historic abode.

Inside, choose between three lavish lounges for evenings with a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon from the Midi-Pyrenees. The 19th-century stylings of grand fireplaces, an upright piano and velvet chaise longues pair perfectly with a full-bodied red. Gathering at the formal dining table, you can feel how French nobility lived in days gone by. We love the kitchen which is a riot of colour yet retains a farmhouse feel with its big, range cooker and cast-iron kettles and pots. The pantry is a fabulous bonus, packed with cookbooks for inspired French meals and all the equipment you need for a picnic in the sprawling grounds.

Or, head further afield and take a day trip to Biarritz on the coast – it’s an easy drive away. Within the immediate area, Peyrehorade is the closest town (13km away) where you can stock up on supplies or just take a stroll along the river.

From its secluded hillside position in Gascony, this restored farmhouse offers idyllic views, a peaceful garden and the perfect setting for a restorative retreat. Guests can enjoy elegant rooms and exceptional design along with a pool, sauna and yoga studio – private classes can be arranged upon request. It’s also family-friendly with a children’s room and plenty to explore in the surroundings. Follow trails through the estate woodland, fields and vineyards, or visit the region's most beautiful spots – it's just 8 kilometres to the nearby village of Condom.

A beautifully historical home, this artist's mansion in the cathedral town of Condom (yes, that's the real name of its village!) invites guests to experience authentic French charm from the heart of Gascony. Revealing a picturesque Italian-style garden setting with sculptures, a fountain, and a private swimming pool, out here, you'll find the perfect spot for a morning coffee or evening aperitif (Armagnac is the drink of the region). 

Despite the home's sense of history, there is also a feeling of space and minimalism, allowing you to relax in refined and rustic surroundings. The creative touches owe credit to the owner (an artist), who adds personal details such as Murano glass light fittings and original sculptures. Period furnishings pay homage to the maison's beautiful original features and bring a sense of grandeur to the minimal styling. 

Whether you rustle up your own feasts in the kitchen's wood fire or have a private chef come and do the honours – sharing delicious group meals here is an absolute must here. Our favourite dining spot of the home is the candle-lit 19th-century Orangerie. Oh and there's even an on-site wine cellar. 

Explore the Gers countryside, discovering idyllic villages such as Montréal, Fourcès and Larressingle – just a short drive away. In the warmer months, we recommend hiring a little motorboat and gliding along the river. The more athletic type might prefer kayaking or canoeing – and if you have food on the brain, take a stroll into the local village to check out the atmospheric weekly farmer's market and cosy restaurants. 


House of Sculptures 

Games Room

Sweeping views across golden fields, acres of ancient oaks to explore and a private lake for wild swimming – this 18th Century château invites you to enjoy it all from the picturesque heart of Gascony. 

Welcomed by the estate managers, you’ll find everything you could need for a restorative retreat or intimate celebration. From sunrise yoga sessions and refreshing swims in the heated pool, to leisurely countryside strolls and fun-filled afternoons playing games or reading in the library, every sense promises to be serenaded by the unique charm of this setting. You’ll also find a small chapel nestled within the grounds, while the gardens provide the perfect opportunity to relax, read and listen to the soothing sounds of nature. 

For adventures further afield, explore the pretty villages of Gascony, browse colourful market stalls, follow hiking trails or play games of tennis on the nearby courts. By sunset, you’ll find this home lends itself perfectly to celebratory drinks and meals prepared by a local chef (available on request).

Found in the French commune of Arraute-Charritte, this typical basque house is bursting with understated charm and an inviting atmosphere that’s hard to ignore. Step foot inside and you’ll find yourself longing for easy mornings and long, contented afternoons. Start with coffee in bed as you stay under the plush covers for a while longer to finish one more chapter of the novel you’re reading. When a hungry tummy can no longer be ignored, pad downstairs to put together a breakfast of croissants and scrambled eggs – although it can be enjoyed at the dining table, you may as well elevate every meal by dining alfresco in the garden. 

Days at home can be spent between the living room, where you can stretch out on the couch to get some more reading down, the kitchen, where you can regularly top up your coffee, and the outdoors, where the fresh country air will invigorate the senses. Sit out on the terrace for cheese and wine, or have lunch picnic-style on the lawn. 

If you’re looking to explore, Biarritz is around a fifty-minute drive away and it’s known for long sandy beaches. Return home after a day of sun and surf to put your feet up, and don’t forget to make use of that sprawling lawn for a bit of late-night stargazing.

Guests looking for comfortable interiors, plenty of bedrooms, a pool, and proximity to white, sandy beaches will love everything about this home. Built at the turn of the twentieth century, this chalet-inspired home has all the luxuries you could want – from the heated pool to the en-suite jacuzzi and sauna bathrooms, each guest will be given the royal treatment when staying here. We would suggest hiring a car in order to make the most of this outstanding part of the Basque country, but if you choose not to, there is a lot going on at the home itself. Play a few rounds of table tennis, volleyball, boules, or grab any of the fourteen bikes available.

Rags to Riches

Deep in the heart of South-West France’s woodlands, down winding country lanes brimming with hedgerow life and the scents of the organic farmlands, this authentic 17th-century manor house brings you to halt and draw breath. Brimming with original flavour, natural timber and that certain “je ne sais quoi” that rural French manor living emanates, it doesn't really get better than this. The wisteria-covered arbour makes us sigh, it’s just so picture-pretty, the original “pigeonnier” – we could wax lyrical. Instead, we can picture you there, en famille. From cosy evenings playing cards by the roaring open fire to long, lazy lunches in the dappled terrace alfresco, to getting stuck into a good book beneath the poolside parasols, to cycling with abandon down the country lanes, this place is dreamy as they come. The region, Armagnac, is one of the finest, oozing history, local culture, gastronomy and wine. “Zut" – it’s one of those re-bookable, guaranteed, timeless ones that you know is failsafe. 

Elegance

Espresso Machine

This home offers ultimate comfort in an original stone farmhouse on an old Almagnac farm, surrounded by rolling vineyards and hills in the pretty Gers region of South-Western France. Light and comfortable, the house is well-suited to families or groups of friends seeking something more homely than luxurious. The outdoor area and surrounding countryside is really what makes this home stand out; a barbecue overlooking the pool is perfectly suited to long, social summer evenings outside, and nearby villages including the closest, Estang, have all the foodie treats you'd hope to find in an area especially famous for its cuisine.

Fenced Garden

Situated in the quiet and welcoming town of Condom, France lies this beautifully renovated home with three floors and more than enough space to get the family together or to take some time away with friends. With an independent flat on the basement level and a large garden accessible on the first level of the home, you'll be able to enjoy true privacy. Take a float in the pool or sit out on the terrace and dine alfresco as the clouds roll by and the kids take advantage of the large, fenced garden to play.

Perhaps you'll spend your time discovering the historical architecture and landmarks of Condom and the surrounding towns, filled with magnificent castles and awe-inspiring scenery. And after each busy day you can return to your picturesque home, cook supper in the cosy rustic kitchen and curl up on the couch by the fireplace with a good book or on the terrace with a good drink.

A Kind Of Freedom

Tucked away in the French countryside, this charming renovated farmhouse provides the ideal retreat for families or groups of friends who want a picturesque escape. While away the hours drinking the finest wines in the open-plan living space with its authentic exposed beams and tiled floors, or head outside and watch the sunset on the vine-draped terrace. 

In the mornings, we recommend grabbing some freshly-baked baguettes from the nearby bakery. In the afternoons, the extensive gardens make a great area for play for young and older alike, and the swimming pool is perfect for a quick nap in the sun. Further afield, you’ll want to visit the beaches at Hossegor, a cosmopolitan surfing hub with chic boutiques and markets.
