GASCOGNE ESTATE
FRANCE

The Gascogne Medieval Estate sits majestically in the scenic Gers region of southwestern France, offering stunning 360-degree unobstructed views of woods, valleys, and summer sunflower fields.
The property provides unparalleled quiet, privacy, and breathtaking starry nights in this richly historic medieval Gascogne area. Auch and Agen train stations serve the region. The 12th century Saint Leonard stone church and three additional 11th-12th century villages nearby bustle with local activities and regional delicacies.
The estate combines authentic medieval character with spectacular natural surroundings.

This exceptional estate features medieval through 17th century stone buildings restored with original features. The property includes a restored Pigeonnier and four additional large limestone buildings constructed on stone ledges of bastide-era provenance.

Professionally landscaped grounds by the Gramont castle landscaper include trees, a fruit orchard, and several outdoor terrace dining areas accessed via a long stone driveway. The property sleeps 8-11 in the main house with additional bedrooms possible.
Three additional large buildings provide locked space for crew setup, costumes, catering, and storage. Spacious grounds accommodate parking with gated private driveway and wide access.

Four spacious upper-floor bedrooms feature dual-aspect windows with unobstructed country views, medieval axe-chiseled stone features, and original wood ceiling beams.
Two large salons open to dining terraces through French doors, accommodating large interior banquet dining if required. Underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove grace one salon, while the original 15th century fireplace hearth and stone sink enhance the winter salon. The spacious chef's kitchen features a SMEG oven ideal for food preparation and dining.
The estate has worked with film crews previously. Private chefs can be contracted, with local restaurants, boucheries, boulangeries, and outdoor markets offering ready-to-eat and takeaway options. Charming hotels in Saint Clar and Lectoure provide crew accommodation, plus a neighbor's property sleeping 10 within walking distance.
