La Foun is a large secluded farmhouse in south-west France, on the edge of a small village in lovely Lot countryside, between the historic bastide towns of Beaumont, Villeréal and Monpazier. The hour-long walk to the village of Monpazier is a stroll through some of the most beautiful countryside in Europe.

"We had a great time here - beautiful area. Could stay for ever!"

• boating, canoeing and fishing on the local lakes and rivers (Dordogne 25mins). 
• walks, cycling or horseriding through the beautiful Lot and Dordogne countryside and ancient villages.
