Find peace and tranquillity at Las Brugues, an idyllic setting in unspoilt rural France. Close to the rivers Lot and Tarn, and between the pretty villages of Montaigu de Quercy and Roquecor, Las Brugues make an ideal base for your holiday in South West France.
At Las Brugues, we offer well appointed accommodation across two distinct properties, both of which have been modernised to a high standard whilst retaining the local character you’d expect from traditional French architecture. Relax in the superb swimming pool or simply enjoy the beautiful views from the surrounding pool terrace. The warmth of the summer sun and clear blue skies makes Las Brugues the ideal holiday for people seeking relaxation, and family holidays alike.
Nearby Montaigu de Quercy (4km) is ideal for every day requirements with its local shops, restaurants and a lively Saturday market. During the summer months, the Montaigu Leisure Lake is popular with those who like a sandy beach, swimming and boating. For those who prefer to be more active there is tennis and horse riding, not to forget walking and cycling as you explore this beautiful part of South West France.
The Lot and Tarn et Garonne in South West France are known for their hidden valleys, woodlands of white oak and fields of sunflowers in the summer. Explore the local French countryside and cuisine, and absorb the history of local bastide towns and lovely hilltop villages alike.
