The cottage is located on a private estate surrounded by nature. The cottage’s thick stone walls, combined with modern double-glazed windows and electric heating, ensure it stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The open living room on the ground floor features a comfortable corner sofa with lighting for quiet evening reading. The dining area includes a wooden table with four chairs. The small open kitchen is equipped with modern appliances; major features include an induction cooktop, refrigerator, oven/microwave, and coffee and tea-making equipment. A steep staircase leads to the loft, which has a double bed (160x200 cm), next to which is a small bedroom with two narrow single beds (80x190 cm) for children. The small, modern bathroom has a walk-in shower, toilet, and sink. Towels are included. The cottage is located on the same property as our other cottage (sleeps 4; see: Nature House 69128), and these can be booked together if desired.
Nature and surroundings
One of the highlights of the cottage is your own walled courtyard set within an ancient ruin. Surrounded by the scent of rosemary and sage, you’ll find yourself in complete privacy, shielded from the outside world. 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. The estate includes a natural vineyard, and on the surrounding hills, the stone walls of centuries-old vineyards are still visible. There are thousands of kilometers of hiking trails starting from the house, ranging from small paths to “grandes randonnées,” and Cahors (7 km) lies on the Camino de Santiago. With the historic city of Cahors and its centuries-old farmers’ market (Wednesdays & Saturdays) just a 10-minute drive away, it offers the best of both worlds.

The cottage is cozy and inviting, fully equipped with all the amenities you need. It has a lovely courtyard garden.
There are plenty of fun things to do in the area, including visiting beautiful villages, taking a boat trip on the Lot River, exploring the caves with cave paintings in Pech Merle, and exploring the fantastic town of Cahors.Het huisje is knus en gezellig, van alle gemakken voorzien. Heerlijke binnentuin.
In de omgeving kun je leuke uitstapjes maken, prachtige dorpjes, boottocht op de Lot, grotten met tekeningen in Pech Merle, en Cahors is een fantastisch stadje.The cottage is located in a beautiful, peaceful, and quiet setting.
Het huisje ligt in een prachtige rustige stille omgeving.

A very nice cottage; the thick walls help keep it reasonably cool. It sleeps 4 people, but given its size, it’s much more comfortable for 2. The cottage is clean and cozy, decorated with an eye for detail. The shower room is fine.
The condition of the furnishings is very good.
The only thing I would have liked is a screen on the ground-floor window. But that’s really the only thing.
We had a wonderful vacation!Heel fijn huisje, door de dikke muren ook redelijk koel te houden. Er is slaapgelegenheid voor 4 personen, maar 2 personen is, gezien de grote, een stuk comfortabeler. Het huisje is schoon en gezellig ingericht met oog voor detail. De doucheruimte is prima.
De staat van de inventaris is zeer goed.
Het enige wat ik fijn zou hebben gevonden is een hor voor het raam op de begane grond. Maar dat is dan ook het enige.
Heel fijne vakantie gehad!The cottage is in a very quiet location, somewhat tucked away among the greenery. You can go for lovely walks, surrounded by woods, flowers, and butterflies.
When you’re sitting in the garden, you’re not alone—butterflies flutter cheerfully around you, and lizards often make an appearance. You’ll mostly hear the birds singing.Het huisje ligt heel rustig, wat verscholen tussen het groen. Je kan prachtig wandelen, omringd door bos, bloemen en vlinders.
Wanneer je in de tuin zit ben je niet alleen, vlinders fladderen vrolijk om je heen en hagedissen laten zich regelmatig zien. Vogels laten zich voornamelijk horen.This text is automatically translated.
