1 hilltop village for rent. 16 houses. 1 full-time inhabitant. That is the ancient village of Lagarde known for weddings as Chateau des Fieumarcon situated in the heart of the Gers region of Gascony in South West France.

1 full-time human inhabitant that is, - Layla an adorable 3 year old Border Collie also lives with resident custodian & manager Didier.But that's it, - just the two of them unless there is a wedding or another event on.

Castelnau des Fieumarcon is believed to be the only entire 'village for hire' in France and is an absolutely stunning venue for a wedding with it's hilltop location over-looking the rolling Gascon countryside (which if you do not know the area, think 'French Tuscany'!).

Close by are the towns of Lectoure & Condom with the cities (and major airports) of Bordeaux and Toulouse within 1.5 hours driving time and on a recent visit, I produced a gallery of landscape photography that captures some of the area. Click this link to view those pictures.

I recently had the privilege of spending a few hours scouting the location/village ahead of future weddings there, in the company of Didier & Layla and as a location for a rural wedding setting in South West France, it really is second to none.
