We want to make you feel welcome

To give you an idea of what you can expect from us, we'd like to guide you through the description below:

After your journey, you will arrive at the gate of Villa Paignon, in the village of Montgaudier. As you drive up the chestnut lane you will see the villa appear. You can park your car on the property behind the villa and immediately get an impression of the beautiful garden and wooded surroundings.

Our dog Pinot may greet you enthusiastically, but don't be afraid because he is just happy.

The enclosed backyard features a large saltwater swimming pool with sun loungers and parasols, perfect for relaxing and soaking up the sun. You can also enjoy lovely walks or, for example, descend to the banks of the river 'La Tardoire'.

Our villa is situated on a hill, with the garden bordered on the east side by a steep cliff beneath which are limestone caves. The cliff is fenced off, but despite this, we consider this location unsuitable for children and pets for safety and precautionary reasons.
