Photos and Description of this Lot holiday house A self-catering summer holiday rental

A tastefully renovated Quercy-limestone estate house set in its own secluded grounds with an 8 x 4 meter swimming pool. It enjoys lovely views, tranquility and complete privacy. The house, together with its adjacent studio, sleeps 8+ very comfortably. The house, believed originally to that of an estate manager to the local chateau, lies in the heart of the ancient region of Quercy Blanc, a few miles South of the River Lot. The property has some 8 hectares of garden, orchard and field, and, being well away from any busy road, provides a secure environment for children. A short drive leads from a very quiet country road to the house. Ideal for those seeking to get away from it all, the property provides a haven of peace and security, and offers everything one could need for a restful holiday. Standing on a small knoll amongst woods, farmlands and rolling hills, the property has been recently refurbished and is well equipped with every convenience.

The property lies in the northern part of the Lot département,­ just to the south of the Lot valley. It is readily accessible by road, rail and air with Toulouse, Bordeaux and Bergerac airports only 1¼ to 1¾ hours away. It is within easy reach of the bustling and vibrant towns of Cahors - Quercy's capital famous for its red wine - Agen, Moissac with its monastery, and a host of smaller towns and villages, many steeped in history from the Hundred Years War. Part of the Midi, the ambiance is very much 'South of France'. The people, like the climate, are exceedingly warm. The house is ideally placed for exploring a wide and varied area of South West France, including the Dordogne, Aveyron and Tarn-et-Garonne as well as the Lot valley itself. There is plenty to see and do - magnificent scenery (Lot Valley, Pech Merle); ancient bastide towns, villages, colourful markets and Romanesque churches (Tournon, Montcuq, St Cirq-Lapopie, Rocamodor, Moissac); caves and châteaux (Padirac, Bonaquil).
