Our Gascon Neighborhood

Discover a countryside acclaimed by poets, painted in landscapes, and left unchanged for you in a slow moving French world.

Camont was built as a farm in 1724 in Ste. Colombe-en-Bruilhois, Lot-et-Garonne Department 47, Gascony, France

Camont is settled alongside the gently flowing Canal de Garonne that meanders through the Garonne River Valley near Agen, in Southwest France. The green and lush souvenirs of an 18th-century working farm reflects a network of clean rivers, fertile orchards, medieval stone villages, farms and colorful farmers markets. Gascony remains the potager or kitchen garden of France. And this is our neighborhood.

Imagine walking the shady towpaths between canal bridges gleaning local fruit, wild flowers, and regional architecture. Charming stone bastides—walled villages—and old chateaux anchor Gascony’s history from the early 1100’s to today’s summer night markets. This rural dream of France, captured in romantic words and paintings, still exists alongside our quiet country lanes for you to discover.
