Paris is really the mid point to La Rouquette self catering villa gite
One really smart place to stay in Paris is Hotel Jeu de Paume on the quiet island of Ille St Louis just behind Notre Dame
And some great restaurants just along the street

You may not want to go into the Paris metropolis
So there’s Chantilly, the horse racing centre, just north of Paris
They have a fabulous chateau and grounds

Or Orleans just south of Paris has a lovely pedestrian centre

La Rouquette self catering villa gite and barn is situated up a no through road in between 2 plum orchards
The area is very quiet, private and tranquil
There are stunning panoramic views on 3 sides focusing on the medieval village of Penne d’Agenais, on time home to Richard III
We are about 6 hours drive from Paris
And 10 hours drive from the coast at Calais

Printable Directions to La Rouquette French villa cottage gite and barn conversion
The journey is one-and-a-half hours from Toulouse
Leave the airport surrounds, get onto the motorway system and take the A62 motorway in the direction of Bordeaux and Agen
(You will need a few Euros for the toll)
((There’s a Services after about 20-minutes; there’s also a motorway intersection for the Paris road – but keep going for Bordeaux and Agen))
At Agen, leave the motorway @ Junction 7 and follow for Agen to pick up the roads for Perigeaux and eventually Villeneuve sur Lot
Close to Villeneuve, bear right onto the ring road, following for N21 until you can turn onto the D661 sign posted to ‘Penne d’A and Tournon d’A’
After a few miles, you’ll enter the town limits of Penne d’Agenais, go under a railway bridge and then straight on over a round-a-bout
From that round-a-bout, go 2.5miles (or 4km)
Then, by a group of half a dozen bollards, take a right turn onto a tiny road marked to Gites Piscine
Within a mile, go left, right and left again and La Rouquette is in front of you
