Bladanel is a great holiday venue with a lovely swimming pool and beautiful views. We saw wild deer on the land and several birds of prey. Despite being very early in the season we were cosy. There is a lovely living room with a good wood burner. The property manager and owner were really helpful and checked in with us that all was okay at the property. Bladanel is well located with the bastide of Tournon d'Agenais just five minutes drive away and other bastide towns within a short distance. We will definitely return!
The house itself is just stunning: rustic in appearance and decor, but containing all you could possibly need. Our only criticism was that there was little to cool the bedrooms on very hot nights (though we were there during the heatwave).
The location is also stunning: the house sits on the side of a hill, with amazing views of the valley below. Be aware though that there is another property next door, only feet away.
The pool is of a great size but the area around it, for seating, is rather basic.
The area is very quiet, rural with small, but very lovely, villages.
The owner was helpful and quick to respond to messages.
All in all, we very much enjoyed our stay at Bladanel and would definitely recommend the house for those who are looking for peace and quiet.
