Mirandole France | 8-Bedroom Villa in Saint-Orens-Pouy-Petit Condom
Holiday Home Rental Description
In the rolling hills of Saint-Orens-Pouy-Petit, where Gascony’s vineyard-draped landscape unfolds in every direction, sits Mirandole France—a luxury villa rental in Gascony France that transforms family gatherings and group celebrations into something genuinely unforgettable. Eighteen guests arrive expecting a comfortable country house. They discover instead a masterpiece of rural restoration: a main residence that breathes authenticity through exposed stone and timber, paired with a contemporary guesthouse and a glass-walled pool pavilion that seems to float above manicured gardens.
Inside Mirandole France
Mirandole France sleeps 18 guests across 8 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, distributed across three distinct structures that balance privacy with collective living. The main villa spans 557 square metres of thoughtfully restored farmhouse space. Ground level features a sprawling open-plan living zone with air-conditioning, where separate sitting areas face south toward the village, a dedicated TV lounge anchors one corner, and a dining table accommodates 8 to 16 guests with ease. The billiards room sits adjacent—perfect for long afternoons when the Gascony heat peaks. The kitchen commands this floor: industrial-scale yet intimate, with a substantial island at its heart, induction cooktops, professional-grade oven, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigeration that extends into a dedicated utility space. One bedroom occupies ground level, furnished with a double bed and direct access to the courtyard; its en-suite bathroom includes shower, sink, and separate toilet. A dedicated yoga studio offers morning classes or meditation space, while practical laundry and utility rooms with backup fridges and freezer storage support the smooth running of large groups.
The first floor contains two further bedrooms. The first features a substantial 2.2-metre-wide double bed, air-conditioning, and an en-suite with walk-in shower, freestanding bath, dual sinks, and separate toilet—the kind of space where a long soak becomes an event. The second bedroom houses two single beds (joinable into king configuration) with shower en-suite, twin sinks, and separate WC. The second floor attic bedroom sleeps younger guests: air-conditioned, with one double and two single beds arranged to suit family groups.
The independent guesthouse (167 square metres) creates separation for guests seeking quieter quarters. Four bedrooms, each air-conditioned, each with en-suite bathroom (shower, sink, separate toilet), each featuring twin beds that convert to king-size doubles. Three rooms open directly onto a covered decked terrace overlooking the garden; one accesses the garden itself. A shared living space combines sofa seating, an eight-person dining table, and kitchenette with twin induction hobs and dishwasher—effectively a self-catering annexe for multi-family groups. French doors throughout flood interiors with southern light.
Outdoor Spaces and Living
The 23-metre infinity pool dominates the grounds, with 1.6-metre depth suitable for strong swimmers and a dedicated 2.5-metre shallow plage section (15cm depth) for toddlers. Safety alarm systems reassure parents; a sundeck furnished with loungers and parasols curves around the water’s edge. But the real revelation is the pool house itself—a glass-sided pavilion with floor-to-ceiling windows that slide open or seal completely, allowing year-round use. Inside: a fireplace radiates warmth on cool evenings, a dining table hosts poolside suppers, a bar catches the afternoon light, and a summer kitchen (sink, dishwasher, hob) means dinner preparation never requires retreat indoors. Adjacent sauna with shower facilities invites post-swim relaxation, gazing out across the manicured landscape. A mobile gas barbecue positions itself wherever appetite strikes. The fire pit gathers evening crowds under star-thick skies.
Beyond the pool zone, terraced areas fan outward—intimate spaces for aperitifs, expansive lawns where children run free, a boules pitch for friendly tournaments, table tennis facilities for rainy-day competition. Beneath mature oak and walnut trees, a yoga platform anchors a peaceful corner where morning practice catches first light. The surrounding 12 hectares encompass working vineyards (the property owners produce their own wine), an orchard yielding seasonal fruit, extensive woodland for walking trails, and open fields that stretch toward the Gascony horizon.
Location: Saint-Orens-Pouy-Petit and the Surrounding Area
Saint-Orens-Pouy-Petit occupies a hillside position within the Gers department, approximately 8 kilometres south-east of Condom—a medieval market town that anchors this corner of south-western France. Condom itself merits exploration: twice-weekly markets overflow with local produce, artisan cheeses, duck products, and foie gras; the Cathédrale Saint-Pierre de Condom impresses with its four musketeers statue; and numerous restaurants showcase Gascon gastronomy, particularly Armagnac-infused specialities. The Petite Baïse river runs through town, adding riverside charm to medieval alleyways.
Three villages classified among France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’ sit within 15–25 minutes’ drive: Larressingle, Fourcès, and Montréal each offers medieval architecture, excellent walking trails, and the unhurried pace that defines this region. Lectoure (22km) delivers market shopping and hillside vistas. Fleurance (23km) and Eauze (31km) provide further culinary exploration. Saint-Clair (35km), famous for its white garlic and early-August garlic festival, supplies seasonal produce. Auch (39km), Gascony’s historic capital, merits a full day of wandering. Agen (48km), positioned on the Garonne riverbanks, claims renown for prunes steeped in Armagnac. Jazz enthusiasts prioritize Marciac, where summer festivals attract international performers.
Summer brings marchés nocturnes (night markets) to villages throughout Gers—outdoor shopping under strings of lights, with local producers selling vegetables, wine, prepared foods, and crafts. Cycling routes trace quiet country roads between vineyards and sunflower fields. The Baïse River permits canoeing and kayaking. Horse-trekking through rolling hills appeals to equestrian guests. Wine tasting, either self-directed through local vineyards or arranged through Excellence Luxury Villas, reveals why this region rivals Tuscany for vintage quality and landscape beauty.

Who This Villa Suits Best
Extended family gatherings benefit enormously from Mirandole France’s layout: grandparents occupy main-villa bedrooms while adult children and grandchildren spread across the guesthouse, creating togetherness without constant proximity. The children’s attic dorm sleeping four permits flexible family clustering.
Corporate groups and multi-family friends appreciate the clear separation between villa and guesthouse—professional-enough to host business retreats, intimate-enough for weekend companionship. Business travellers benefit from reliable Wi-Fi throughout, whilst the dining facilities accommodate working lunches or evening team meals.
Wellness-focused guests find the dedicated yoga studio, sauna facilities, and peaceful grounds particularly suited to health retreats. The yoga platform beneath trees offers morning practice with garden views. Wine enthusiasts engage directly with the property owners’ vineyard, arranging tastings and understanding terroir. Couples seeking romantic group holidays appreciate the privacy of the guesthouse combined with shared outdoor spaces for evening socializing.
Families with children benefit from the shallow pool plage section, safety alarms, table tennis, boules, open lawns for play, and the freedom of a 12-hectare estate where young guests roam safely. Older children enjoy cycling, woodland exploration, and cultural day trips to medieval villages.
