About this property

Idyllic converted gite barn amongst the orchards in sunflower country, SW France

La Maison du Cœur Calme (Home of the Calm Heart)
Idyllic, freshly renovated gite for up to 8, or apartment for up to 6 in sunny rural South West France.
Ideal location on edge of quiet but well-equipped village, only 10 minutes’ drive from one of the most beautiful villages in France, Monflanquin and 30 minutes from historic Bergerac. Cancon has a quaint Monday-morning market within easy walking distance and a picturesque mediaeval quarter completes the village, with its majestic views from the panoramic viewpoint.
The charming gite barn has four bedrooms (twin or double), each with en suite shower rooms, kitchen, large salon and patio area.
The apartment has 3 bedrooms (two twin or double plus one king size), a beautiful bath/shower room, a kitchen / diner and patio.
Both are surrounded by a mixed fruit orchard and plenty of areas to unwind in the peaceful grounds. Within a few minutes’ drive of excellent vineyards that host wine tastings and so many of the local tourist ‘must sees’; here at the Home of the Calm Heart, you have the best of both worlds: culture on your doorstep, but a haven of tranquillity in which to restore and replenish.
Bookings for a minimum of one week, whole gite or whole apartment only.
Free private off-road parking, wood-fired pizza oven and sunken fire pit available to use for toasting marshmallows, sipping a glass of local wine, or simply stargazing into the endless night sky.

About the host

Hosted by Reb Deacon

Host profile image
We are an Irish & Welsh couple, who are lucky enough to have moved here to live permanently. We love to share this special place and provide some local tips and insights for those looking to explore; or provide space for those looking to chill in peace and calm.

Why they chose this property

This land gives space to breathe and slow down to the pace life felt like in our childhood. It is a safe, warm, happy, simple area with smiley welcoming locals, amazing markets, great cheese and even better wine!
We are within easy reach of numerous historic bastide towns, each with their own charms, quirks, markets, attractions. There is a blue flag swimming lake very nearby and countless cave grottos, festivals and other sights.

What makes this property unique

It's a feeling! Yes, the place is sympathetically-renovated, but the feel of this property is what every single person who comes here comments on. It seeps into your soul and people say things like 'I've never slept so well', or 'It feels like coming home', or 'I don't ever want to leave!' And so, why not join us and experience it for yourself.
