Family holiday home in rural France with large pool and far reaching views

Find peace and tranquillity at Las Brugues, an idyllic setting in unspoilt rural France. Close to the rivers Lot and Tarn, and between the pretty villages of Montaigu de Quercy and Roquecor, Las Brugues make an ideal base for your holiday in South West France.

At Las Brugues, we offer well appointed accommodation across two distinct properties, both of which have been modernised to a high standard whilst retaining the local character you’d expect from traditional French architecture. Relax in the superb swimming pool or simply enjoy the beautiful views from the surrounding pool terrace. The warmth of the summer sun and clear blue skies makes Las Brugues the ideal holiday for people seeking relaxation, and family holidays alike.

Nearby Montaigu de Quercy (4km) is ideal for every day requirements with its local shops, restaurants and a lively Saturday market. During the summer months, the Montaigu Leisure Lake is popular with those who like a sandy beach, swimming and boating. For those who prefer to be more active there is tennis and horse riding, not to forget walking and cycling as you explore this beautiful part of South West France.

The Lot and Tarn et Garonne in South West France are known for their hidden valleys, woodlands of white oak and fields of sunflowers in the summer. Explore the local French countryside and cuisine, and absorb the history of local bastide towns and lovely hilltop villages alike.


What do our guests have to say:
• "The perfect spot for a truly relaxing holiday. Amazing location."
• "Two weeks of bliss, 30 deg C, 360 deg views. We hope to be back next year."
• "Our third year and it is just as beautiful."
• "The pool was lovely. We enjoyed the local restaurants and beautiful views."
• "Quiet and relaxing stay in a beautiful house with all the accommodation we could have wished for."
• "Beautiful countryside, great for exploring and relaxing. Too many vineyards to visit in just one week!"
• "Truly amazing place! Spectacular views and beautiful part of France. Sad to be leaving but hope to come back."
• "Fab, Fab, Fab. Fantastic weather, beautiful house. Thank you."


Accommodation is provided in two distinct properties, both of which are built in white Quercy stone. La Grange is the larger building with accommodation for 8 people and the adjacent Pigeonnier accommodates a further 2 people and is only available for larger parties.


La Grange, is a tastefully restored barn conversion which combines original features with:
• A modern fitted kitchen
• A large and spacious living area
• From the adjoining dining room one can step into
• A private south facing courtyard garden. This enclosed courtyard has a Mediterranean ambiance and can be extremely hot in summer.
• A large comfortable sitting room faces the pool and French windows open directly onto the poolside terrace. The staircase leads to:
• A large mezzanine above the sitting room, with TV, DVD and large sofa.
• The four bedrooms are accommodated in two wings, each with a large double bedroom with its own en suite bathroom, and a twin bedroom. High ceilings keep the rooms cool in hot weather.
• A family bathroom with a corner bath.


The Pigeonnier is a converted grain store and dovecote with exposed stonework and oak beams which has been converted to provide living and sleeping areas on two floors. The property comprises:
• A double bedroom with en suite shower room, located on the ground floor.
• Stone walls and quarry tiled floor keep this room cool during warm summer nights.
• A small ground floor terrace accessed through double doors.
• The living room also contains a dining area and a fully equipped kitchen. This opens onto the first floor veranda that can also be reached by an external stone staircase. It is a perfect place for a sunny breakfast, while enjoying the extensive views of the meadows and woodlands beyond.

The Pigeonnier is separated from La Grange by the driveway and faces away from it, allowing privacy from the main property.


Other facilities to note:
• Fresh bed linen and bath & hand towels are provided at the start of each stay.
• Washing machine and ironing facilities are available in a separate utility room.
• Children's high chair available.
• Table tennis available.

Rustic charm in rural France
Lovely rural France, nestled in amongst fields of sunflowers, sweet corn and with some charming little villages close at hand, Las Bruges was just what we expected, rural, rustic charm in a perfect location. The property itself is more than adequate, plenty of space, lovely pool area and stunning views across the beautiful rolling countryside; everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing stay… Hugo (who looks after the property for the owner) was on hand for anything we needed and was also very knowledgeable about the local area (restaurants, amenities etc.) and called by 3 or 4 times during our stay!

Converted farmhouse with scenic views over tye valley and hills. The view from the newly lined pool were great. There is a lovely terrace for sitting out and shady dining. There was no internet while we were tgere and tge phone connection only realky worked outside for some of us. Its a super area with the charming bastide towns aling the pilgrim route. Quite early in tge year and not all reataurants were open. Would come again !

Back to Montaigu
Know this area well as seasoned gite holidaymakers. Location super and property easy to find . Pool is a good size. We had everything we needed but the photos are old and in general for the size and price band the property and decor is in need of an update. Towels and linen clean but needed more for duration of stay, toilet paper and hand soap were basic. On site Property managers were so friendly.

A Beautiful Holiday
The property is superb and the location is secluded which was perfect for us. The local towns and March Gourmonde were superb. We visited some of the larger towns Mosssaic snd Agen and were not impressed by these although Agen has the beautiful canal. Hugh who looks after the property was amazing and gave so many brilliant tips and ideas. We did as many as we could and all were brilliant. The only item I would ask to change is the electric BBQ for a bigger gas as it took a while to cook food and would not have been able to cope with more than 4 people

A truly french rural vacation
We spent two weeks in this quiet and rural location. The area is quintessentially old rural France. We drove to see some beautiful medieval villages, spent a long time playing in the large swimming pool, played cards and visited a water park in Agen (40 minutes away). We went to local markets and joined in with lovely local communal meals. The property had everything we needed, was very clean and the property manager was very helpful. This is a calm relaxing holiday away from the usual british holiday locations in france.

Lovely stay at Las Brugues
We had a really great stay at Las Brugues. The house was as lovely as expected from the description but the pool was amazing. The location is secluded and the surrounding countryside made for a relaxing holiday. Shops within a short drive. A big thank you to Hugh and Ailsa who were on hand when needed. I would thoroughly recommend Las Brugues if you are planning to Sat in the area.

We have stayed at Las Brugues several times now. Fabulous accommodation, wonderful location. During our stay the temperature soared to 40c on several days so the ability to cool off in the large pool was a blessing. Cannot recommend this property enough.

Beautiful property with a great sized pool.
We have just returned from a wonderful week. The weather was beautiful and sitting round the pool on the numerous sunbeds watching the kids play in the pool was wonderful, steps made easy access in and out the pool for the kids. The kitchen was a good size and we ate inside and on the covered terrace. Deer were spotted most mornings in fields nearby. The closest supermarket is only 5 mins drive away. No close by neighbours meant we did not have to worry about disturbing when the kids were in the pool.

Amazing Property, Beautiful location
We stayed here for 2 weeks this August 2017. The property and it's amenities were outstanding. The photos on the website didn't do it justice. Huge, beautifully decorated rooms, the boys loved the enormous swimming pool and the location was idyllic. The views were amazing from it's hilltop rural location and we were stunned by the amount of wildlife we saw throughout the day. Watching the deer in the adjoining fields in the evenings was a regular feature. We stayed here with friends. In total 4 adults and 2 young boys and there was more than enough room for the 6 of us. The assistance we received from the owner and his staff was excellent. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Lovely accommodation in a lovely area of France
We had a fabulous fortnight at Las Brugues - everything about the property was perfect for our needs. Really good quality accommodation, super pool, lovely views, peace & tranquility, combined with being well-placed for local village and good location to visit other towns & villages. Great local knowledge supplied by Hugh! Only negative thing to mention is that my brother, who stayed in Le Pigeonnier, felt that the water pressure in there (particularly for the shower) could do with being increased. Other than that, this was voted as our favourite holiday home ever (and we've stayed in loads!!). Thanks very much, from The Foxes and The Nashes 👍☀️

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house and fantastic pool. The equipment at the pool is also fine (sunbeds and umbrellas). The gas barbecue by the pool is also in good condition and can be used for larger groups. If you are looking for peace and quiet, this accommodation is a great choice! If I may give a tip: A screen for the bedroom windows to keep the bugs out would be a good addition. Hugh, thanks for your interesting stories!

une location qui aurait pu être agréable.
Bon rapport avec HUGH et GARY .Bel environnement .Mais un protocole sanitaire bien sévère : pas de rideaux occultants ( ni de volets) aux fenêtres des chambres ,pas de tennis de table, (mais un jeu de boules ?) pas d'aspirateur, donc 15 jours sans nettoyer la moquette blanche des chambres, pas de change de draps et serviettes. Le pigeonnier était insalubre, le rideau de piscine sale et déchiré, le filtre du lave-vaisselle encrassé. Il n'y a aucune chaîne française à la tv. D'autre part, ne pas avoir la phobie des souris, des araignées et des mille-pattes qui sont des locataires à plein temps. Et ne pas être allergique aux piqûres de moustiques. En résumé : mauvais rapport qualité prix.
