Overview
Description
If you are looking for a quintessentially French holiday then look no further! L’Herbe Pot is a charming stone, one-bedroom gite nestled among hazelnut groves, with far-reaching views of the stunning French countryside. A peaceful retreat, L’Herbe Pot is just 5 miles from the 13th century Bastide village of Monflanquin, considered to be one of the prettiest villages in France.Other historical, picturesque Bastide towns of Villereal and Monpazier are also nearby, along with the Chateau De Biron, and the town of Monseprom Libos, which hosts the largest weekly market in the Lot-et-Garonne and Dordogne.
L’Herbe Pot is attached to La Tuilerie, (where your hosts Emma and Chris reside), however to ensure total privacy the gite has an exclusive entrance and drive and its own large private garden, with breath-taking rural views.
L’Herbe Pot has been recently renovated to a high specification, and incorporates an open-plan living room, kitchen and dining room with original features such as exposed stone walls, wooden beams and an ancient bread oven. The kitchen is well equipped: with an oven; integrated hob; integral fridge; Belfast sink and Nespresso coffee machine. There is a beautiful, spacious bedroom with king-size bed, a pretty window seat overlooking the front garden, and a bathroom with a large powerful shower.
The outside dining area is situated in the rose garden, a stone’s throw from the petit potager (feel free to help yourselves to tomatoes!) There are two comfortable sun-beds, with plenty of natural shade, and a gas BBQ. Spend your evenings chilling by the firepit, enjoying a bottle of local wine, whilst watching the sun set or simply stargazing. For the more energetic, there is Badmington and Boules.
Other attractions include weekly markets, summer night markets, Brocantes, Wine-tasting vineyards, cookery classes, Kayak trips on the Dordogne River, a range of good local restaurants, bars and boutiques.

Leave ReviewL'Herbe Pot - An absolute treat!
By Wendy Merry on 31-Oct-2024We recently spent two delightful days at L'Herbe Pot and couldn't have had more of a welcoming experience. Emma and Chris were incredibly warm and attentive hosts, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Their hospitality added a lovely personal touch to our stay. The gite itself was wonderfully comfortable and beautifully decorated, providing everything we needed for a relaxing break. The private garden was an extra highlight, offering stunning views over the rolling French countryside-an absolute treat! We enjoyed exploring some lovely nearby villages. We would absolutely recommend L'Herbe Pot to anyone looking for a cosy and picturesque retreat in France. Thank you, Emma and Chris for a memorable stay!
Wonderful Gite, Wonderful Location
By Tiffanie Andersen-Lines on 17-Sep-2024Had a wonderful break in the beautiful surroundings, very tranquil and wish I had booked longer! The hosts were fantastic, they had good knowledge of nearby places to visit, which made our stay even more pleasant. The Gite itself was very clean and cosy, views were stunning and peaceful, barely saw another soul. Definitely the place to visit when you don't want any Hussle and bustle. To Enjoy the scenery and visit some beautiful nearby villages. If I had stayed longer, I would have visited bigger towns. Can't wait for my next stay.
Fantastic Stay at L'Herbe Pot
By Charlotte Furbisher on 01-Jun-2024Had a fantastic four days at L'Herbe Pot. Accomodation was perfect-comfy bed, lovely kitchen and sitting room and beautiful location. Had a few trips out to gorgeous old market towns but loved just sitting and soaking up the views. Emma and Chris were so helpful. Will definitely be back. Thank you
