Types of Holiday Rentals in Tarn-et-Garonne
Houses to rent in Tarn-et-Garonne are the most popular type of property. I have seen a very attractive traditional 2 bedroom Quercy stone renovated farmhouse set amidst fields in a quiet rural area.
The property benefits from a private pool with a paved and lit surround, a covered terrace, pretty gardens and that all important barbeque. The house has traditional white stone walls and beamed ceilings. The kitchen has a wood burning stove, microwave, gas hob and fridge freezer.
Another very attractive and imposing Tarn-et-Garonne house to rent I came across is a stone built 4 bedroom 3 bathroom villa in Dordogne style. The villa has been refurbished in a traditional French style. It sleeps up to 7 people. It has an open plan living dining area with an attractive open fireplace. There is a kitchen breakfast room with French doors overlooking the pool area.
It also has a family room with additional living and dining space and a piano, so there is plenty of space to spread out and relax. Outside the property boasts a large swimming pool, a terrace, charcoal barbeque, tennis court and beautiful mature gardens.
These are just two of the beautiful holiday rentals in Tarn-et-Garonne, and the huge variety of properties available means that no matter what you are looking for, you will find something to meet your needs.
