La Maison Beauregard

About this property

Set within 12 acres of countryside in the heart of the Lot-et-Garonne, La Maison Beauregard is a delightfully restored country home where space and traditional style come together in perfect balance. Framed by gently undulating fields, this family home welcomes you with lovely views and a sense of calm that lingers long after arrival.

Inside, the house has been thoughtfully designed with comfort and practicality in mind. The spacious open-plan living and dining area flows easily onto the terrace. A characterful kitchen comes fully equipped for leisurely meals, best enjoyed al-fresco on the terrace. Four restful bedrooms, including a children's bunk-bed room, two doubles and a twin, offer flexible accommodation for up to eight guests.

UK satellite TV and internet ensure entertainment on quieter evenings in. Meanwhile, the converted barn outside houses a dedicated games room, complete with pool table, table tennis, darts and table football, perfect for both children and adults alike.

Outside, the expansive lawn invites games and play under the sun, while the shaded dining terrace is ideal for al-fresco meals by the barbecue overlooking the private 10-metre swimming pool.

Perfectly placed between the bastide towns of Monflanquin, Cancon and Villeréal, La Maison Beauregard offers easy access to local markets, shops and characterful restaurants. Monflanquin, with its cobbled lanes and panoramic views, is just a short drive away and brimming with history -it’s classified as one of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’.

Further afield, the Dordogne reveals châteaux, vineyards and riverside villages steeped in charm and tradition. Bergerac, with its medieval old town and celebrated wine heritage, is 45 minutes away and makes a perfect day trip across this captivating region of France.

In the scenic Lot-et-Garonne countryside, on the edge of a small village/hamlet, La Maison Beauregard enjoys a picturesque setting between Cancon (5km), Monflanquin (9km) and Villeréal (14km). Enveloped by 12 acres of land and open countryside, the house offers a rural escape within easy reach of some of south-west France’s most captivating bastide towns.

Just a 10-minute drive leads you to Monflanquin, a 13th-century hilltop bastide proudly listed among Les Plus Beaux Villages de France. Meander through its medieval arcades and cobbled alleys, lined with cafés, bakeries, and independent shops, and soak up sweeping views across the surrounding countryside. Arrive on a Thursday morning to catch the bustling weekly market in full swing.

Closer still, the village of Cancon provides practical amenities including a supermarket, restaurant, weekly market, local shops and a tennis court – all within a picturesque setting. Casseneuil (15km) and Villeneuve-sur-Lot (18km) are also within easy reach, offering riverside charm, heritage architecture and a lively, authentic atmosphere.

Gastronomy is at the heart of this region, and visitors will find themselves spoilt for choice. From rustic eateries serving duck confit and truffle-inspired dishes to year-round farmers' markets and brocantes, there are endless ways to enjoy the area’s culinary and artisanal offerings.

For those keen to venture further afield, the exquisitely preserved bastide towns of Monpazier (28km) and Issigeac (28km) promise historic charm, atmospheric markets and scenic spots to linger over a coffee. Golfers can tee off at the nearby Castelnaud golf course (8km), while walkers and cyclists will find plenty of opportunities to stay active in the surrounding landscapes.

A visit to Bergerac (45km) makes for a wonderful day out. Set on the banks of the Dordogne, this attractive town is famed for its half-timbered façades, riverside quays and deep-rooted wine culture. Enjoy a tasting at a local vineyard, take a cruise on the river, or hop aboard the mini tourist train for a relaxed tour of the old town’s highlights.
