Luxury rental villas with pool - Dordogne / South West France

Nestled in South West France, the Dordogne, Garonne and Gers regions have their cultural and gastronomic traditions firmly rooted in France’s history. Beautiful scenery, a strong cultural identity and an appealing climate make it a popular destination for the French and foreigners alike. 

This region is blessed with a generous helping of sunshine, so a swimming pool is a must if you’re booking a holiday here. Food and wine are an important part of any French holiday, and the Dordogne and the Gers have more than their fair share of delights in store. This is the land of ducks and geese, so exquisite foie gras and confit de canard are de rigueur, with a side serving of sarlardaise potatoes cooked in goose fat. Duck breast fillet is also on the menu, washed down with some of the region’s outstanding wines. Rent a luxury villa and you’ll be able to work it all off doing laps in your pool!

The Perigord region has a strong prehistoric history and is just waiting to be discovered. Sites like Les Eyzies, Roque St Christophe and Le Bugue will take you on a trip back through time. Further south, the Gers region has some great places to visit too, such as Larressingle, Sarrant or Fourcès. Alternatively, rent a luxury villa with a pool in Garonne and spend your holidays on the river where there’s plenty to see and do.
