Close to ecotours, birdwatching, and more, this family-friendly cottage brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 18-minute drive to Château de Biron or the 22-minute drive to Cadouin Abbey (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return to this 1076-sq-ft cottage, unwind in the garden or sip a drink on the deck or patio, and don't forget about the outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the WiFi and TV.

As you settle into this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom rental, you'll find a dining area and a BBQ grill. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
