This nature house is a historic chapel that was completely modernized in 2022 to meet contemporary luxury standards. The large open living room (the original chapel) features a historic baptismal font and stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter. It has a spacious corner sofa, underfloor heating, double-paned windows, and a cast-iron wood stove. The additional round table is ideal for games, puzzles, and working from home. The open kitchen forms the centerpiece of the house with an 8-person dining table and includes an induction cooktop, refrigerator, freezer, oven, microwave, coffee and tea makers, dishwasher, and washing machine. The master bedroom features a double bed (180x200 cm). The smaller bedroom has two single beds (90x200 cm) that can also be used as a double bed. The natural stone bathroom with a walk-in shower overlooks the vineyard; next to it is a separate toilet. There are several terraces and dining areas surrounding the house, so you can always find the perfect spot in the sun or shade.

Nature and surroundings

The cottage is located on a secluded estate, surrounded by nature next to an old, natural vineyard with a winery. On the surrounding hills, the stone walls of what remain of centuries-old vineyards are still visible. La Chapelle is surrounded by its own private garden featuring several terraces with dining tables, lawns, and trees, and an unobstructed view of the valley. In the summer, you can hear the crickets; at sunset, the deer bellow; and after sunset, the owl hoots. The starry sky is breathtaking thanks to the minimal light pollution in the area. The Milky Way is clearly visible, as are shooting stars in August. The trees and vineyards are covered with lichens, a sign of the clean air. There are thousands of kilometers of hiking trails starting from the house, ranging from small paths to “grandes randonnées,” and Cahors lies on the route to Santiago de Compostela. With the historic city of Cahors and its centuries-old farmers’ market (Wednesdays and Saturdays) just a 10-minute drive away, it offers the best of both worlds.

General rating: 10 /10

A very comfortable house, equipped with every—and I mean every—convenience. There are several spots around the house where you can sit and/or eat. The location is beautiful! There’s plenty of peace and space around the house, and plenty of activities in the area. There’s plenty of information available on various activities.
Cahors is nearby and definitely worth a visit. There’s a nice market on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

Plenty of peace and space, both in the sun and in the shade. A beautiful view from the terrace. We saw martens and fawns, and heard an owl.

It’s a lovely, spacious, and well-equipped house with comfortable beds and a nice shower. It’s in a beautiful, quiet location, yet you can get to Cahors in no time. The large garden has several seating areas. Lounge chairs and sun loungers are provided. The house stays cool even in the heat. Fans are also available. Communication with the manager is quick and efficient. We had a wonderful stay. We highly recommend it.

Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

The house is situated in a quiet, wooded area. It has a large garden that offers plenty of privacy. You have a beautiful view of a field where we saw a fox and deer every evening. There are some nice walking trails in the immediate vicinity.
