Finders Keepers France
An Adults only Retreat sat in 13 acres of grounds with a 3-acre swimming/fishing lake.
Located in a peaceful rural location on the border of Lot-Et-Garonne and the Gers, we are perfectly placed for those who love to leave technology behind and get down with Nature.
The complex consists of a 1-bedroom Gite (holiday cottage), a small Glamping/Camping site set within a walnut orchard (due to open June 2024). There is also a fabulous open air hanger barn AKA 'Shady Rest'. This is our popular entertainments and social area.
We are a husband-and-wife team who are discreet yet responsive when required. We live on site.
Finders Keepers France is a perfect retreat for adults who love gardens, flowers, wildlife, relaxation, reading, nature and getting away from the hustle and bustle of busy life.
We look forward to meeting you all soon

Rescue cats, dogs and hens
We would like to introduce you to our rescue animals that also live here at Finders Keepers France.
Nigel is a black chihuahua, aged 6. He came to live with us in April 23. He loves people, food and his favourite hobby is relaxing on the sofa with his dad if not sitting on the ride on mower whilst the gardens are being tended to.
Sunflower, Dumpy, Ginger and Frank are our barn cats who just came to live with us. They are feral cats and have taken up residence in shady rest. They are very inquisitive of guests however can be very timid.
January 2020, we rescued hens from the local battery farm who now live in our fruit orchard. They are fun and friendly and like a daily treat and cuddle. On occasions they can be found roaming the grounds.
Alfie was our 19-year-old dog who we rescued from the UK. He sadly passed away August 2022 aged 19. He will never be forgotten and leaves a huge hole in our hearts.
