Accommodation . . .
Living Rooms
The open-plan sitting room has a sofa and easy-chairs providing comfortable seating in front of the Jotul wood-burning stove; extremely cosy on those out-of-season evenings! It also has a well stocked book case and a quality sound system. Oh yes! and satellite television. And full fibre internet broadband. Bedrooms
Two delightful pretty double aspect bedrooms (one is a double and the other has two single beds), with polished wood floors, sloping ceilings and original oak beams. Both offer a chest of drawers and hanging space for your holiday attire. An attractive mezzanine area at the top of the oak staircase provides a further single bed if required. A cot is available for infants. Electric fans are provided for those hot August nights. Bathroom Bathroom with powerful shower, wash-hand basin, lavatory and a shelf unit for your toiletries. Pool The exceptional pool area is close to the cottage, sheltered and completely private. The wall of the barn, a terraced wall with lavender and cypress together a lower wall leading off into the copse, bound it on three sides. The fourth side faces south and is completely open to the wonderful views over the Lot valley. The pool is 10m x 5m with shallow steps by the barn end and varies in depth between 0.9m and 2.1m. There is a solar heated shower and the pool can be illuminated for those night-time dips. It is also fitted with an AFNOR approved alarm system. |
Kitchen
The kitchen / dining area with its terracotta floor is well equipped and includes fridge / freezer, electric oven, gas hob, a microwave / combination oven and plenty of cupboard space. The large old French pine dining table will comfortably seat eight people. Cuisine d’été’ To the side of the cottage is a wonderful ‘cuisine d’été’. This very attractive covered area with its stout oak beams and old canal tiles on the roof provides comfort and shade - an absolute necessity. A round metal painted table enables six to eat in comfort and a number of wicker chairs with squashy cushions gives the opportunity to put your feet up and relax with a glass or three of the famous local Cahors wine and read those books you've always promised yourself. Approached off the cuisine d'été, the utility room houses the washing machine / dryer, double sink and a large full height fridge / freezer. It has large oak worktops and offers plenty of space for cool storage. |
The Barn, is simply that - a barn. It is just used as a place for storage and has not been restored as accommodation.
