What to See and Do
Owners Recommendations
Eating Out
'Local Cafes'
"Two great local cafes (3km) away. Both offer daily menus 11 Euros for 5 courses of food including wine. Great local food, friendly service, world's greatest creme brulee. Record for our guests so far is 8 visits in 10 days!"
Local Area and Activities
'Armagnac-Tasting'
"Try tasting Armagnac at the many local chateaux - nearest one is ½ km away. Easily (thankfully) within walking distance. Very friendly owner who will help you taste Armagnac and the local aperitif called Floc. No pressure to buy - but not many people can resist."
'Canoeing'
"Hire a canoe (3km away) for an hour at a time or go on an escorted trip. Safe and peaceful, great wildlife. End of one journey finishes at a canal port with good local food. All guests of all ages have loved this trip. "
'Hawk Experiences'
"We have a Harris Hawk called Gertie - We offer hawk experiences for gite guests at a very reasonable price."
'Horse Trap Racing'
""Chariot racing" 2 local courses (5km and 7km away). Children often go free, family activities and minimum bet 1 Euro. Great way to spend an afternoon - just don't expect to get wealthy! "
'International Jazz Festival'
"International Jazz Festival at Marciac - 40 mins away. International artists perform and loads of bands playing for free by the local bars and in the square. Runs for 2 weeks in July/August"
'Leisure Lakes'
"Two great local leisure lakes - one 9km away, the other 15km away. Both with lots of activities and lifeguards, and shade! Loved by children of all ages. Get up late, go to the lake, come back to the gite, stay by the pool, barbecue, sunbathe. Perfect relaxation. "
'Local Fetes'
"Every commune has an annual fete which involves games and meals in the evening - plus music. These are set around themes - such as snails. It would be impossible to stay between June - September without one happening within the local area. "
'Molly and PI'
"If you are missing your pets - don't worry. Our 2 very friendly collies will become your new best friends and guaranteed to keep all children (particularly adolescents) happy - Molly does not get bored of fetching sticks/playing football!"
Markets and Shopping
'Local Market'
"Vic-Fezensac Friday morning market (9km). Great local produce - fantastic fruit and veg, local cheese and flower stalls. Very popular all year - lovely to shop and stop for a coffee."
'Night Market'
"Night market in July and August in Vic-Fezensac. This town knows how to party - these markets start at 7pm and go on until past midnight. Lots of music, stalls and large trestle tables set up in the market square where you can eat. Typically a meal will cost 10-12 Euros (includes wine). Very friendly and great fun."
'Vide Grenier'
"A vide grenier is a French car boot sale. Very popular in the local area - happen most weekends. Come bargain-spotting in the sun."
