Over the decades, Lauzel has been lovingly restored and renovated to create an authentic French home-from-home with soul. We offer self-catering accommodation for up to 14 with exclusive use of our heated infinity pool, hard tennis court and a charming, rustic barn available for events, retreats and other special occasions.
Situated in the heart of rural South West France, Lauzel is set on 40 acres of rolling countryside, giving our guests peace, privacy and beautiful views over the local landscape and neighbouring villages.
It comprises three buildings which surround a lovely courtyard, the villa includes an infinity pool, working vineyard, an orchard, tennis court, table tennis table, BBQ, fire pit and several terraces.
The hilltop location and unobstructed views of rolling countryside give Lauzel a unique feeling of solitude, allowing guests to have the holiday of a lifetime on their own terms. Lauzel is situated just 10 minutes from the beautiful bastide town of Monflanquin and 20 minutes from Villeneuve sur Lot, so you're not far from shops and restaurants.

Swimming Pool
The swimming pool is 12m x 6m and is heated. It can be lit for night time swimming and provides plenty of terrace space with tables for al-fresco dining and sofas for relaxing. There are many sun loungers available too, which can be set up around the pool. Pool towels are provided.
To See and Do
We have plenty to keep you occupied at Lauzel, whatever the weather...aside from the pool we have a full sized, hard tennis court, a covered and lit ping-pong table, plenty of books and games.The sprawling grounds are perfect for morning strolls, where you can collect eggs from the chickens, pick fruit in the orchard as well as from the hedgerows, and find benches dotted all over to enjoy the different views. The swing by the vineyard is another lovely, shady spot where you can take time out for yourself.
Lauzel is part of the tiny village of Savignac-sur-Leyze, which you can see from the front of the property, with Monflanquin in the distance.
Monflanquin is 10 minutes drive from Lauzel, and has pretty much everything you need during your stay - a good sized supermarket, petrol stations, banks, bakeries, a butcher, post office, newsagents, as well as boutiques and a handfull of lovely restaurants. There is a small museum full of fascinating history about the local area, and you can book guided medieval themed tours around the town, usually in the evening.
In July and August there are lively evening markets where you can sample local produce, not only in Monflanquin but in many of the other nearby bastide towns. There are plenty of activities to try in the local area - canoeing on the river Lot, horse riding, treetop climbing, and even water parks...you'll find a full list of our recommendations for everything to see and do in our handbook which we leave for you to take a look through when you get here.
