Where to sleep

Students have a choice of  several off-site accommodation in charming local village inns as well as hotels in nearby Agen.

Although there are many places to stay, we recommend the following lodgings because of the warm and friendly welcome they provide for our guests as well as the character and charm of their accommodation.

Le Prince Noir is our nearest hotel neighbor owned by the very welcoming English-speaking Amandine & Marc Duverneuil. Fresh country chic rooms open onto the quiet courtyard or swimming pool and garden and the new restaurant offers evening meals jsut a few steps from your room. Le Prince Noir is just 4 kilometers from Camont and those wishing to bike or walk to work off extra foie gras can use the paved canalside towpath- le voie verte that follows the Canal de Garonne between Bordeaux and Marseille.

Hotel  Henri IV is in charming Nérac, the real life setting for Joanne Harris’ book ‘Chocolat’. This intimate inn is run by Julien and Anne, your English-speaking young and welcoming hosts; the rooms are small, simple and straightforward as befitting their modest rates.

The charm of The Henri IV is that you are in the middle of this “village remarquable”, well known for its great Saturday market, small shops, bars, cafes and SIX excellent butcher shops. For those not wanting to rent or hire a car, you can see everything on foot or bike and take a taxi or car service between Nerac and Camont. For more information and photographs click on http://www.hotelhenriiv.fr/. Nerac is about 20 minutes from Camont; the hotel can arrange for transportation to and from Camont.

Chateau Ste.Loup- en-Albret B&B is in nearby Montignac-sur-Auvignon, a 15-minute drive from Camont. Perfect if you want to rent a car or arrange for a taxi for evening outings.

Your charming hosts are Beatrice & Arnaud de Mentque who welcome our guests like family into their recently restored chateau. Ste Loup-en-Albret has an unmatched view of our beloved Gascony… all the way to the Pyrenees. With several B&B rooms, as well as a 5-bedroom gite with kitchen, common rooms, and terrace, the Chateau tower is perfect for larger groups. In summer, we love the shady parc and swimming pool with it’s pool house pigeonnier. For rates and accommodation click on http://www.stloupenalbret.com .
