Overview
Description
Conveniently situated on the borders of the Lot et Garonne, the Dordogne and the Gironde, just 45 minutes from Bergerac and 75 minutes from Bordeaux, Labarthe B&B and Gite is located just three kilometers from the Bastide town of Duras, and enjoys spectacular views across the beautiful valley and vineyards/hazelnut orchards and recently planted Almonds to Duras Chateau and beyond.The two bedroom holiday cottage is attached to the main house but is very private and secluded, the double French doors open out onto a private terrace overlooking the large shared pool. The two large and comfortable bedrooms have superior English beds and linen, one Super King and one King size zip link. Each bedroom has it's own en-suite shower room.
The open plan living space has a fully fitted modern kitchen with dining area and comfortable seating area. There is a TV, DVD player and Free sat allowing the standard UK , or French, channels. There is Wi-Fi Internet access throughout the house. In addition in the main house we only offer 2 B&B rooms so the garden and pool is never noisy. We do not have children’s ‘toys’ or children’s games and the pool is not enclosed but is alarmed. Our guests are those that enjoy rural France and everything that France has to offer but like to be within 4 minutes by car to restaurants, cafe, chateau and many other entertainments.
For wine lovers, Labarthe cottage is ideal for visiting the Bordeaux, St. Emilion, Bergerac, Pomeral, Buze and of course Duras wine producing areas.
The property has a large shared pool, loungers, parasols and personal barbecue for your gite are provided for you to make the most of the sunny out door life style.
Our aim has been to provide accommodation we would be delighted to stay in ourselves if it were our holiday. Therefore, we have tried to make the accommodation comfortable and welcoming.
This is a truly peaceful and tranquil location. Ideal for 'getting away from it all' and winding down, both for couples or as a family. The cottage is fitted with electric radiators so is ideal for out of season lets for Easter, autumn & winter breaks. Labarthe Gite is available for short breaks out of high season.

Leave ReviewA lovely gite in a special place
By Hilary on 31-May-2025Labarthe is lovely gite in beautiful surroundings. It was very comfortable, spotlessly clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Situated in rural France the scenery and gardens are stunning and very well maintained. The pool is also an added bonus although a little cold for us in May. The owners who live in the adjacent property were so helpful and always on hand for useful information. There are plenty of charming medieval villages to visit within this region of France. We saw a lot! If you want to relax in a peaceful location you would not find better than Labarthe. Hopefully we will return. Thank you again Richard and Jeanette.
Fabulous time in Baleyssagues
By Mike and Kate on 22-Oct-2024This is the third time that my wife, Kate, and I have stayed at Labarthe and as with the previous two times the reception from Richard and Jeanette was first class, a very warm welcome. The accommodation was perfect with an excellent supply of wines and food in the fridge and, as ever, was immaculate. Both Richard and Jeanette could not do enough for us and we shall look forward to returning to this first class gite.
The Best of the Best
By Deborah and John on 21-Oct-2024We stayed in Labarthe Cottage and in Labarthe B&B last year and enjoyed it so much we did not hesitate to rebook in July and August this year. My husband and I stayed in the Cottage with its own terrace and BBQ for 2 weeks and for over a week in their B&B which is in Richard & Janette’s own house. We love it here as Janette keeps the property spotless, as does Richard with the pool and gardens. Jack their elderly friendly dog is allowed to wander around the grounds but doesn’t bother guests, but is always happy to have a stroke. The beds and bedlinen are excellent throughout and the cottage furniture and kitchen equipment are all to a high standard. There are some nice walks from the grounds that take you to Baleyssagues beyond. There is a lot of history in this area and you are very near to the market towns of Duras and Monsegur with their weekly day and night markets. There is something for everyone here. Richard’s B&B breakfasts and Janette’s homemade jams are the best way to start the day. There is an excellent selection of cereals, yogurts, fresh fruit, toast, croissants, fruit juice, tea and coffee and boiled eggs are on request.
A wonderful stay
By Laura on 10-Aug-2024We have just enjoyed two weeks staying in the gite at Labarthe. Richard and Jeanette are the most wonderful hosts, so kind and helpful with recommendations in the area. The gite is beautiful and well equipped and was perfect for our family of four. We were particularly grateful for the pool on some hot afternoons. The gardens are beautiful with great views as Labarthe enjoys an elevated position. If you are looking to soak up the beauty and culture of Lot-et-Garonne and a great family holiday, I would highly recommend Labarthe.
The Best PLace to RElax and Unwind
By Hilary and Brendon on 05-Aug-2024Our third visit to the gite at LaBarthe - it is as lovely as ever; a place to recharge our batteries and where we feel completely relaxed. Jeanette and Richard are the best hosts - on hand for all our needs and very sociable without imposing. The standard of all the furnishings and equipment in the gite is superb still! Thank you both - we will return!
Chilled and Relaxed at Labarthe
By Corinne and Richard on 25-Apr-2024We had a wonderful stay at Richard & Jeanette's Gite. What a beautiful property, with a lovely garden and stunning views across the valley to Duras - something you never get tired of. The gite is so comfortable & spacious with everything laid on for a relaxing break (including a nice bottle of the local red and some essentials on our arrival). The beds are super comfortable and the pool looked very inviting but temperatures were still a bit low to tempt us in April. Richard & Jeanette are fantastic hosts with plenty of advice and tips for exploring the local area. We'd highly recommend Labarthe & would love to return - indeed we hope to relocate to the area permanently in 2025.
