The Perfect Getaway

 Gregg and Sandra would like to welcome you to Charlan Bed and Breakfast, a traditionally south facing maison de maître stone property built in 1698. Charlan is set on 3 acres of organic enclosed land, fencing with an electric gate and is bordered by the River Lot with approximately 100 meters of private river frontage, ideal for fishing.

Charlan is surrounded by acres of kiwi fruit plantations and agricultural land and the only neighbour is approximately 200 meters away. The location is private and peaceful. The access road that passes by Charlan stops at the River Lot and is only used by ourselves, our neighbour and the occasional local fishermen.

Charlan is situated in a quiet rural area, but not an isolated position and is within easy walking distance of the picturesque village, Aiguillon (2km) that offers all amenities, including a supermarket, post office, banks, tourist board information centre, restaurants and a railway station and is within a 10 minute driving distance to the A62 motorway for access to Bordeaux and Toulouse.   Aiguillon is situated between the towns Tonneins and Agen, in the heart of the beautiful Lot et Garonne region in Aquitaine, South West France.   The name Aiguillon comes from the point (aculeus in Latin) formed by the confluence of the Lot and the Garonne. The sumptuous chateau built by the Duke of Aiguillon in 1775-81 is now a College, whose majestic rear facade looks out over the Garonne valley. To the right of the chateau and church is the medieval district of Lunac, which contains timber-frame houses and a castle whose roof and towers can be seen from the Place Lunac.

The land that surrounds Charlan on all sides, is mainly laid to pasture and lawn, with some mature trees and a newly planted orchard. Charlan also has a 10m x 5m private swimming pool with an outside toilet and changing area. Pool towels are provided for guests.
