The large kitchen/dining room is fitted with oak units and tiled work surfaces. There is a dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washing machine, split level oven and hob, round ship’s dining table and chairs - and a sofa for comfortable reading!

  • MONDOUNET GITES ESTABLISHED IN 1989
    Until 1987 we lived in Portsmouth, U.K., leading hectic lives and enjoying the everyday challenges of our prospective jobs. We treasured our escape to France every year, discovering another part of this great country. In the summer of 1988 We looked at properties in the Dordogne but nothing matched up to our ideas, so we drove, with our daughter, south to Cahors in the Lot Valley to see the magnificent Pont Valentre (medieval bridge over the river Lot). The Lot is known as the gateway to the south with a climate appreciably better than its neighbour. We were captivated by the champagne coloured houses, hilltop medieval villages and our first taste of the superb Cahors wine. WE FOUND OUR DREAM.....
    What an idyllic setting for the 17th century farmhouse and outbuildings, set up on the hill, overlooking two valleys. There was nearly a hectare of land (about 2 acres) - a large stone barn, bread oven and stable, exactly what we were looking for.
  • Restoration and conversions were carried out and the following year we were able to open our doors to our first holiday guests .....and now after 20 years we still believe that moving to this beautiful part of S.W.France was the best decision we ever made. Over the years we have worked hard improving the accommodation and grounds:
    OUR GITES: The Bread Oven; Stable; Farmhouse and Barn have been enlarged, central heating installed, new bathrooms and shower rooms. The gardens look splendid with many beautiful pots and hanging baskets. A real picture.
    The pool is heated from spring to the end of October. We have poolside barbecues with entertainment and music. There is badminton/table tennis/boules
    NEW FOR 2009:
    OUR FARMHOUSE IS UNDERGOING MAJOR RECONSTRUCTION AND WILL HAVE A NEW FITTED KITCHEN WITH DINING AREA, OPEN PLAN TO THE LIVING ROOM WHICH WILL LEAD OUT ON TO A BALCONY
    PLUS STAIRS LEADING DOWN TO THE GROUND FLOOR
    INTERNET ACCESS WITH BROADBAND.

Here are some comments from our guests:
Many, many thanks for entertaining us so well in every respect on our recent visit. We enjoyed it enormously and will be back given half a chance! The vineyard which you recommended proved to be really good advice, the excellent wine was much appreciated by our friends down the line.
Thanks again.
Peter and Sarah.

Dear Zoe and Peter,
Arrived home safely after a fantastic holiday. We all wish to thank you for help making Ali's 60th birthday so good. You were both great company and excellent hosts.
Thank you both once again. Regards Sue and Ali


Dear Zoe and Pete, we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at Mondounet, thank you both for making us so welcome. It is a lovely place for a holiday and we had a very relaxing stay. The area is also very beautiful and we enjoyed visiting the local towns and villages, and driving through the peaceful countryside. Hope it won’t be too long before we can return.
Best wishes, Caroline/Tony
