The kitchen is equipped with modern appliances including an induction stove, combination microwave / oven, large fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. The dining table comfortably seats 4 as does the living space. The bathroom offers a modern shower. The upstairs bedroom is accessed via a modern spiral staircase.

For the colder seasons, L'Etable has a wood burner, central heating and a heated towel rail in the shower room, making it a cosy retreat for the snowy or autumn periods.

L'Etable shares a large 15 metre pool with one other Gite. Please note the pool is open from 1st June - 30th September and is an ambient temperature. The pool may be heated on request however this will incur an additional daily charge for which the guests will be responsible.

LOCATION
L'Etable is in the quiet village of Puyjourdes. Visiting the charming Market towns of Cajarc and Limogne both of which are 10 kilometers away and have markets on Saturday and Sunday respectively. Other towns to visit include Villeneuve-du-Rouergue, St.-Cirq-Lapopie and Figeac where Champollion of Rosetta Stone fame was born.

To work off the good food and take a break from the pool there are plenty of Road and Mountain Bike riding paths around the village and in the wider LOT region. Our favourite is the bike and walking track to Carjac. Horse riding, walking, kayaking, swimming, water skiing, caving, climbing, parapenting are all within a easy drive or bike ride. A favourite of the kids (from 7 to 70 !!) is the rope course with various levels of difficulty finishing with a flying fox over the lake. All of these are within 15 kilometres.

Splendeur du Lot

Le gîte est charmant, vue magnifique et calme absolu. A moins de 15 minutes plein de choses à faire (balades, canoë, cheval, phosphatieres...) et proche de St cirq la popie et Cahors. Hamish est super, toujours souriant et avec de belles valeurs de partage. Oui il y a des insectes (guêpes, moustiques) mais le cadre est tellement beau qu'on passe de merveilleux moments sur la terrasse qui donne sur la piscine. Merci pour tout Hamish !

Spacious property in a dreamlike location

The property offers enough space for a family, with the possibility to get together or have time to themselves. The area is quiet and lets you relax quickly and well. Nevertheless, shopping and leisure facilities are within easy reach. We had a great time and can only recommend the stay.
