Lovely property, just as described, all the amenities that you need in a home away from home break. Really cosy, outdoor amenities are plenty and catered for indoor and outdoors so plenty to keep you entertained if weather isn’t great. Fab hosts as well..

Very private and peaceful. Enjoyed the views from the dipping pool. Welcoming and generous host. Wonderful!
Fabulous property in a great location, with plenty of living space.
Wow, what great Gite... This is a little gem with loads to do. Quiet and secluded with a lake to view and enjoy with glass of wine. Darren and Paula have created a wonderful 'finders keepers' hideaway; this is our second visit and we will be returning in 2020. Thank you.
C'est sûrement le meilleur gîte que nous ayons fait. Paula et Darren sont charmants et très attentifs. Les équipements sont complets et les espaces de repos nombreux. Les 2 piscines et les coins apéro sont appréciables avec les très bon cocktails de Darren. Une petite balade sur le lac terminera la journée.
Il y a des rencontres qui marquent et des lieux qui vous touchent. Paula et Daren, notre semaine passée dans votre gîte est de celle-là ! Votre accueil a été une véritable bouffée de bonheur. Votre sympathie, votre générosité et votre gentillesse ont donné à notre séjour une dimension humaine que nous chérissons. C'est réellement un havre de paix que vous proposez avec beaucoup d'humilité. Nous sommes repartis le cœur un peu lourd de vous quitter et la tête pleine de souvenirs. On vous dit "au plaisir de vous revoir". Don't forget Claude et Francine
Région très touristique ,visite de château , bastille , marché gourmand , dégustation de produit régionaux .Propriétaire sympa et discret . Séjour a ne pas manquéElian et Jacqueline
Gîte situé dans un bel endroit, au calme, isolé mais pas loin de Moncrabeau, de Condom et de Nérac.
Propriétaires discrets, mais présents et disponibles … sympathiques malgré la barrière de la langue.
Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour dans un lieu magnifique et reposant. Tout était parfait.Les hôtes sont très accueillants et d'une grande gentillesse. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir à la fois pour le lieu mais aussi pour Paula et Darren.
Wonderful Property, Charming Location, Great Hosts
My wife and I had a great time at this VRBO. Our hosts, Paula and Darren, were so welcoming and nice from the moment we met them until the time we left. Their property has so many cool amenities, including a dipping pool, pool table, dartboard, and private lake. We would recommend this VRBO to anyone who finds themselves in/near the town of Nérac.
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour chez Darren et Paula. Non seulement l'accueil était très chaleureux mais en plus tout est fait pour le bien-être de chacun. Les services proposés sont nombreux, l'environnement est exceptionnel, le gîte est tout à fait charmant. Nous vous le recommandons.
De l'accueil aux services (quand necessaire) le propriétaire Darren est là, d'une discrète présence et à votre disposition pour vous proposer des activités sur place, vous conseiller sur les sites environnants à visiter.
Le gîte est TOP pour 2 personnes. Le parc est somptueux et les jardins très fleuris. Une petite piscine très appréciable.
Le gîte est à 10/20km de sites remarquables à visiter sans faute.
Pour tout faire prévoir 2 semaines.
Nous avons regretté l'absence de Paula et espérons faire sa connaissance une prochaine fois.

Das Haus umfasst mehrere Hektar-Grundstück. Stühle und Tische zum sitzen findet man überall im Arial. zum Grundstück gehört auch einen kleinen See mit Insel. man kann mit dem Boot dort fischen gehen. Der Gastgeber Herr Darren ist sehr lieber Mensch. der Platz hier würde nicht ausreichen , um ihn mit Worten genau zu beschreiben. Danke Darren vielmals für Alles.
Mischung aus rustikal und edel eingerichteter Ferienwohnung. Wir haben nichts vermisst. Ideal für Menschen, die Einsamkeit und ländliche Idylle schätzen. Terrasse gestaltet im südlichen Flair. Die Gite bietet viele Möglichkeiten zu persönlichen Aktivitäten wie Naturbeobachtungen, Schwimmen im dazugehörigen See oder im eigenen Pool, Radfahren, Billard, Tischtennis, Darts und vieles anderes mehr.
Finders Keepers :on a trouvé et on gardera ...de merveilleux souvenirs!
Confort digne d'un grand hôtel et pour les amoureux de la nature un vrai paradis.
Tellement d'activités sur place et de calme qu'on a dû se forcer pour prendre la voiture afin de visiter cette très belle région et ses beaux villages .
On n'a jamais fait plusieurs fois le même gîte mais là ...on reviendra 🙂
Merci Darren "you are the best and nothing more to add " 👍👍

A lovely peaceful hideaway in the countryside. Chill and relax in the grounds or explore the nearby quaint and beautiful villages. Fab friendly hosts on site for help if needed. Gite also lovely and comfortable! Everything has been thought of and provided to make your stay as perfect as possible.
We loved our stay at Finders Keepers. It was everything we had expected and so much more. We finished our French trip with two days here for rest and relaxation. There is so much to do within the property that you won’t want to leave although when you do you will find some real gems in this beautiful part of France.
We loved everything about this Gite and think Paula and Darren are offering something very special indeed.
Our favourite spot was down by the lake where the boat is stored but there are so many seating areas that I am sure we still had some to find. This is a real nature lovers retreat but at a price that certainly doesn’t reflect the standard of the accommodation. We loved the quality of the linens and the softness of the towels and robes.
I can’t find a single negative; only that we had to leave! We will be back for a longer stay next time!
Thank you so much Darren and Paula!
Situé dans une grande propriété où tout est mis à disposition des vacanciers, le gite se révèle riche en activités à faire sur place ; farniente dans les hamacs, billard, tennis de table, piscine, lecture, dessins et peinture, etc.... Le plus pour ce gite se situe dans sa partie boisée avec le lac sur lequel il est possible de se balader en barque pour observer la faune et la flore. Nous avons été très bien accueillis et nous nous sommes sentis comme chez nous dès le premier jour. Nous recommandons vivement cette location, surtout pour les amoureux de la nature !
Finders keepers has got to be the best place we’ve ever stayed in.
Great host nothing is too much trouble,
There’s everything here for you archery, fishing Darts. Pool table tennis Music And much much
more lovely places to visit and eat out
Or just stay in and relax
We will be returning next year.
Had a brill holiday Thanks Darren
See you next year

Everything one can possibly need is there, and it has got style to it!
Darren, your landlord, is a most friendly, hospitable, creative, energetic and playful personality, who is willing to help you with anything without being obtrusive at all. There is no need to get bored, neither in good nor in bad weather, for the premises are full of nice and original seats, hidden fairies - I'm not going to reveal anything - nature and a whole shed changed into relaxing place, with board games, a pool table, books, artist's materials, etc. Behind the shed, there is a table, bench and hanging chair where you can perfectly enjoy the sunset.
And then there is the world outside. The area is really charming and quiet, with its bastides and other little towns (e.g. Nérac) and beautiful gardens (Les Jardins de Coursiana) that are worth a visit. And one of their good aspects is, that they are within reasonable reach so that they can be visited in half a day if you want. Which gives you time to fill the other half of the day by having a siesta, doing some shopping, playing around 'at home' or add another half-a-day's visit.
And don't forget to swim in the lake, row-row-row-your-boat and watch the stars at night. You can even see the Milky Way!
Book this gîte! Now! You won't regret it.
