Description

The BAT HOUSE at Pechdou is situated on the edge of a tiny hamlet one mile to the east of Saint Maurin and 15 minutes from Agen. The hamlet is set on a hillside, surrounded by tranquil and beautiful farmland and woods, but is tucked away just half a mile from the nearest departmental road (the D.16).

Accommodation

The house is newly converted and simply furnished, but with all the necessary comforts.

It comprises:

A very large kitchen/dining room, with full sized gas cooker, modern sink (H&C), fridge, work surfaces, washing machine and a large table & chairs. In one corner there is an armchair by the Rayburn, and diagonally across the room is a writing surface. The back door by the kitchen area leads down a few steps to a shaded area for cool eating or sitting.

Downstairs in the cellar is a chest freezer - not glamourous, but works well!

A sitting room with SKY TV, two old but comfortable sofas and a large fireplace.

Upstairs a large landing gives onto:

A bathroom, with full sized bath, washbasin & WC

2 bedrooms, both with 2 single beds There is room in the main bedroom, or on the large landing, or in the sitting room for the 2 extra occasional beds provided, should they be required.

As with most houses in this area the first floor rooms all have velux windows and are set under the eaves. The plus side of this is the picturesque atmosphere, but it also brings restricted headroom in some parts. Our son finds no problems!

Duvets, pillows and underblankets are provided but NOT bed linen , towels or tea towels.

Outside

Outside there is lots of mowed grassy space in front of the house, and also a side garden which adjoins the fields. Shade can be found in this side garden, or the back terrace. Garden furniture is provided.

About 50 yards across the garden is a delightful swimming pool, with a pebble surround, grassy sunbathing area, and incredible views. On a clear day the Pyrenees may be seen in the far distance.

The pool gets the sun from the moment it rises to the moment it sets. It measures 10m x 5m, has Roman steps leading into the shallow end . From time to time neighbours from within the hamlet may use the pool.

Local Amenities

Saint Maurin village boasts a general store, post office and bar.

Agen is a large town/small city and as well as all the hypermarches and services to be expected it has a delightful river & canal yacht basin where boats can be hired.

Agen is also well served by trains (including the TGV; Agen to Waterloo is about 6 hrs!) and the A62 autoroute. Bordeaux and Toulouse are both just an hour and a quarter away, with their international airports, & Bergerac & Carcassonne are served by the no-frills lines, about 2 hrs. away.

Local Attractions

Things to do!
The surrounding 84 acres belongs to Pechdou and is freely available for walks and exploration. In this part of France there are very few boundaries, and by and large you are welcome to walk around most fields, as long as the crops and property are respected. The barns in the hamlet are old and picturesque and the countryside is criss-crossed with public tracks for visitors' enjoyment - suitable for both walking and biking.
Golf, horse-riding, fishing and tennis are all available locally . There is a public (card operated) telephone in the hamlet for visitors' use.
