The Main House:
The main house is the private residence of Bryan and Anita Neal,  the owners of  Labarthe and is not normally available for rental, except for 2 guest rooms which can be used for additional accommodation for guests staying in either the Cottage or the Pigeonnier. The main house is included here to show you the full nature of the Labarthe holiday retreat. You are guaranteed a friendly welcome and relaxing peaceful holiday here at Labarthe.

Labarthe, midway between the medieval bastide villages of Eymet and Issigeac, is set in 2 acres of well maintained mature gardens, laid mainly to expansive lawn but featuring many and varied varieties of fruit trees, acers, a unique fox glove tree, hydrangias, camellias and perennials. It is surrounded by oak trees, walnut groves and fruit orchards presenting a delightful secluded holiday retreat away from the pressure and stress of 21st century life. However, for those guests that just have to stay in touch we can provide WiFi broadband internet connectivity.

There is a petanque piste for you "pointeurs et tireurs" to play boules (lessons available on request) and of course there is the large solar panel heated swimming pool for bathing, a solar shower, sun loungers and a shaded area for relaxation and shade from summer sun.
