Traditional Gascogne house in rural SW France
Introduction
Traditional French stone house with modern amenities and direct access to countryside. 8km from local small cathedral city of Condom. I live here post-Brexit but have family in the UK and take small trips to see them. Would suit a sitter who loves the countryside and outdoor life. Situated in the old area of Gascony this is traditional France at its best.

Sue was a wonderful host and had prepared us a delicious dinner for our arrival! We arrived a day before her departure which was great as Sue was able to provide us with a rundown of how to care for Dottie and her home. Sue’s communication before and during our sit was brilliant which made for the perfect sit. Sue is so warm and friendly and couldn’t have been more welcoming. In the area, a car is most definitely needed as there is so much nearby to explore between lovely villages, walks and all this part of France has to offer. As we had use of a car we were able to take Dottie everywhere with us. Dottie was a joy to be with, she very friendly and can run and play ball with never ending energy. We took her to all the villages, markets and restaurants and she is so well behaved, people just gravitate to her. We’d loved our visit in Condom and have made a new friend in Sue and Dottie and look forward to seeing them both again.

We had a lovely time with Dottie who, as expected, was full of beans. Sue was a lovely host and nothing was too much trouble. A lovely place in very quiet countryside. If you like walking and fresh air you would enjoy this ‘sit’ very much indeed.

I had a wonderful time sitting for Sue in her lovely home in a small village in the Cotswolds. From the start, Sue was a great communicator and thoroughly organized. I enjoyed getting to know her through our conversations leading up to the sit. Her house is situated in an ideal spot for enjoying all the Cotswolds has to offer. There are many beautiful walking trails, a bike path directly across the street, a terrific town pub, and easily accessible public transportation if you do not have a car. During my visit when I needed to be in contact with Sue, she was readily available and always helpful. I highly recommend sitting for Sue and would not hesitate to do it again in the future.
