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.

The vacation home features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker and a travel crib.
