Secluded house: charm, big park, salt pool, Spa, fitness, boules, Wi-Fi and view

This charming house that sleeps 12 + baby has been listed “3 Clévacances” by the tourist office of Lot-et-Garonne (approval number LGC194).

You can visit our personal website

You will find many pictures, videos and information about the region

The renovation will be completed in early 2015. The house is South-exposed on the plateau de Marcoux on a lit 4000 m² park bordered by a laurustinus hedge and wooden gates. The property is secluded and surrounded by set-aside lands with exceptional views of the countryside over 10 km (you can see Bourg-de-Visa).
At the rear of the park, there is a large very modern private lit sea salt 12x6 m pool with stairs at the end and jet stream secured by a solar slatted cover as well as wooden gates. It is surrounded by a large lit 100 m² terrace that is linked via a path to another 40 m² terrace (that can be covered with a solar awning) that leads to the kitchen via double French doors. The 2 terraces and the path are tiled with reconstructed stones and lit by lamps and spotlights.
In front of the house, a pavement with lit riser and a 3rd 15 m² terrace lead to the kitchen. The property is well lit both at the front and at the rear. 2 extra lanterns at the entrance of the property switch on when you arrive as well as the lighting of the riser to ensure comfort and safety of our guests when they come back late at night.
The 11x3 m boules ground is located at the front in the park which gives you the opportunity to play boules while enjoying an aperitif and preparing the dinner outside (large charcoal built-in barbecue and electric plancha by the large table under the acacias).
There is a very well fitted sports-fitness-relaxing room with electric darts, table tennis table and table football table.
The charm of traditional style mixed with modern comfort, oak beams, old open fireplaces (1 with insert in the living room) and period oak cupboards.
The modern built-in kitchen is fully fitted
Living room with insert that you can use in the old open fireplace, old oak beams, 2 sofas and 3 armchairs, LED flat screen television, landline phone, Wi-Fi Internet, DVD player, hi-fi system, safe and small stylish pieces of furniture.

The 5 bedrooms are spacious and the bedding is new. The 2 bedrooms on the ground floor are tiled and those on the first floor have parquet floor. These bedrooms have their own style.
The “Fleurs de Lys” bedroom with private shower room located on the ground floor has a lot of charm with its old fireplace, its old oak beams and its 2 original cupboards (the door and the window open onto the front park), the “Roses de Redouté” bedroom on the ground floor with private bathroom has a bed in an alcove, a sofa and an original cupboard.
On the first floor, there is a Mezzanine with yellow and blue tones, 2x90 cm beds and baby cot and a “Vintage” bedroom (the one in the middle) with “Mode” screens. A shower room is shared between these 2 bedrooms.
At the back, there is a large 50 m² double bedroom in a more Provencal style with private shower room, 140 cm bed, 120 cm bed and 90 cm bed.

By the large salt pool, there is a Spa (for 3 people: 2 sitting and 1 lying) on the large terrace that is linked to the terrace at the rear of the kitchen (with shower room at the end of the terrace). It can be covered by a solar awning. A tiled path links these 2 terraces.
Large outdoor swing set with hut for the pleasure of children: 3 swings (1 for baby), climbing ladders and slide as well as small tables, seats and games).
For teenagers: soccer, badminton, volley-ball, basket-ball, speed badminton and some board games.
For baby: baby cot, high chair and bathrobe

This house is particularly pleasant in summer: very cool thanks to its thick walls that are a natural air-conditioning system. Bedrooms are very pleasant both on the first floor and ground floor where the skylights at the rear bring some brightness and ventilation.

This 4000 m² property is a haven of peace far away from the town. You can hear the song of the birds, cicadas and frogs. It is limited by a 3-m laurustinus hedge at the rear and on the sides and a wooden fence at the front. A plants screen (conifers and bushes) obstructs the view from the small path.
Many tree, bush and flower species in the park: lime, bay laurel, bay tree, laurustinus, robinia umbraculifera, sumac, red maple, albizia, lilac, mock-orange, summer lilac, hibiscus, cedar, rose bush, rose-bay, lavender, box tree, rosemary, mint, thuja, stone pine, etc. as well as many flowers.
Garden furniture (several tables with seats, deck chairs and garden armchairs)
Pool and Spa: open from May to September during the high season and the peak season

Many visits are possible including several visits listed Unesco World Heritage

A disappointment
We had a disappointing experience this summer at La Rouquette, a first in the 15 years we have been organising this family holiday. The property has some obvious good points: a large shady garden, great pool, well equipped kitchen. But the website fails to mention that all the bedrooms are communicating. Hence a lack of privacy, specially on the first floor, where one has to pass through the other sleeping areas to reach a bathroom or the stairs. This should have been made clear in the description of the property. Furthermore, the website highlights the availability of a spa. What we discovered on arrival was a blackened jacuzzi, which, it was then confirmed by the owner, had been out of service for more than a year. An expected amenity was therefore not provided as advertised on the website. Another problem encountered on arrival was with the television: we had to wait five days to get a functioning one. There was also a broken flush in one loo, a lack of mattresses for the six hard plastic pool loungers (different from the ones shown on the website) and the three provided had not been cleaned recently. We left the property in good state (dishes washed and stored, bins emptied, beds stripped, BBQ cleaned) so were shocked to receive a surcharge bill for "cleaning and dog hair". Cleaning was included in the rental price, and furthermore we don't have a dog! Once challenged, VRBO advised us the owner had withdrawn it but is now raising other reasons which we contest.

Un très bon moment
Nous avons loué La Rouquette pour un WE entre amis. Nous avons trouvé une propriété très très bien équipée, confortable et très adaptée à ce type de week-end. A la campagne mais avec un accès facile à toutes les commodités : très bon pain à l'épicerie du village, beaux marchés locaux. Les enfants ont pu profiter pleinement de la piscine et des jeux mis à leur disposition. Tout est fait pour profiter de la campagne et des barbecue en famille ou entre amis

Propriété magnifique et temps super! A recommander sans hésiter!
Super séjour entre couples d'amis dans une belle propriété bien entretenue. La maison est bien aménagée avec des suites et super équipée, tout le confort moderne associé au charme d'une belle maison du 18e située dans un grand parc bien éclairé. X.F.

Notre 4ième séjour à La Rouquette s’est déroulé, tout comme les précédents, sans aucun nuage (en ce qui concerne le temps, qui a été très agréable en ce mois de septembre 2018 (entre 26 et 32 degrés), et la maison et ses équipements). Malgré les pièces en enfilade de cette magnifique longère, nous avons tous notre intimité (4 des 5 chambres disposent d’une salle de bain privée). Après un arrêt obligatoire chez notre boucher préféré le dimanche matin au marché de Roquecor, nous avons passé 5 jours de farniente bien mérités à La Rouquette, sans pour autant nous ennuyer (entre superbe piscine éclairée (dont le liner a été changé en 2018), spa, barbecue, pétanque, salle de sport, ballades à vélo,… il y en a pour tous les goûts!). Les nouvelles baudruches pour s’amuser dans la piscine, dont le superbe flamand rose, nous ont valu quelques fous rires ! Nous avons ensuite pris la route direction le bassin d’Arcachon où nous avons séjourné sur la presque île du Cap Ferret (à 250 km de la Rouquette) afin de profiter de l’air de l’Atlantique pendant 4 jours. Entre dégustations d’huîtres au bord de l’eau à l’apéritif chez les ostréiculteurs (je recommande particulièrement les 2 adresses suivantes : Huîtres Eric Larrarte dans le magnifique et typique village Le Canon et Chez Boulan au Cap Ferret), ballade en pinasse, dune du Pilat, île aux oiseaux et les fameuses cabanes tchanquées ainsi qu’un tour gourmand sur le bassin, accompagnés d’Alain, un local très sympathique, qui nous a fait découvrir à pied les endroits secrets de la presque île (villages de L’Herbe et du Canon principalement), qui a comblé nos yeux comme nos papilles, nous n’avons pas vu le temps passer. Nous sommes ensuite repartis direction Marcoux pour terminer notre séjour et nous relaxer au calme à La Rouquette. Farniente, visites et farniente sont les mots d’ordre de nos vacances dans cette très belle région qui offre de nombreuses possibilités d’excursions. Nous tenons à remercier la propriétaire qui est toujours disponible par téléphone et à notre écoute. Nous pensons déjà à réserver 2 semaines pour l’année prochaine et qui sait, passer quelques jours dans le pays basque français. Retourner à La Rouquette est, pour nous, synonyme de vacances réussies ! A bientôt ! V.G.

excellent séjour dans une maison avec toutes les fonctionnalités nécessaires présentes et un calme olympien au milieu d'un cadre naturel bucolique. Seul bémol: la chaleur dans les chambres du haut malgré les climatiseurs portables. Difficile de dormir dans les meilleures conditions

Jamais deux sans trois !
Retour à la Rouquette en famille, pour un séjour magnifique. La maison a encore été améliorée depuis notre dernier séjour. La piscine est magique. Accueil parfait par Hazel. La propriétaire Madame Goffin est disponible en permanence pour régler les éventuels petits soucis techniques. Et la météo (sauf deux jours plus frais et un peu pluvieux) a été très agréable. Bravo et merci !

Belle et grande propriété en pleine campagne. Calme et repos assurés! En même temps très proche de sites remarquables, comme Lauzerte, Moissac, Bonaguil. Nombreux producteurs locaux dans les environs, prêts à faire découvrir leus spécialités (Vin de Cahors, foie gras, prunaux d'Agen, miel...). Equipements intérieur et extérieur complets.

Une demeure chaleureuse dans un écrin de verdure
Nous avons séjourné pour un week-end prolongé à 3 familles. Les parents comme les enfants se sont régalés de ces quelques jours au pied du beau village de Beauville. Cette maison respire les vacances et la convivialité . Tout y est : piscine vaste et chauffée, terrain de pétanque, de foot, plusieurs terrasses pour autant d'ambiances, barbecue, salle de sport, équipements nombreux dans la maison... Le tout dans un cadre bucolique et une bâtisse de caractère. Nous repartons vraiment enchantés de notre séjour et prêts à y retourner avec grand plaisir. Petite mention également à l'endroit de la propriétaire, Mme Goffin, fort sympathique et à l'écoute des locataires. Une adresse à recommander indiscutablement.
