This is a beautiful place to stay.
The house looks out over its own large grounds, with very large heated pool (12m) and over unspoilt grassland, with ancient woodlands in the distance. Wildlife in abundance.
Butterflies chase each other across the grass, grasshoppers hop, and cicadas chatter away til sunset. There is no light pollution, so you can watch the stars clearly at night.
Sitting at the pool, you could easily believe you were in your own country House hotel.
The house is tastefully renovated, with very good quality fittings and furniture, beds very comfortable, plenty of furniture. It is more spacious than the photos suggest.
There are two outside dining suites for six, one by the doors from the house to the garden, and one in a covered area at the poolside. There is a gas fired barbecue.
The kitchen has many more gadgets and equipment than you'd normally find in a holiday let*. High quality appliances and fittings.
The owner took great care to furnish us with all the info we needed. We had a friendly welcome from Ludwine, the local key holder, when we arrived. The owners daughter, who was staying nearby, also called in to check that we were ok, and gave us info about places to visit.
The owners spent several years renovating this house, and clearly invested a lot of love as well as effort.
There are 3 or 4 houses nearby, but you are not overlooked.
The nearest shops (baker, butcher, local supermarket) are in Livernon 10 mins drive away. It also has a cafe and restaurant. Figeac is about 20 mins and has everything.
The WiFi works perfectly.
English people please note that the satellite TV has no English channels, so best to bring your own dvd collection if you only watch English stuff. *There is no microwave.
We had a fantastic stay in this beautiful house.
