About this property

Beautiful old farmhouse with stunning views, pool and tennis court.

Set in private grounds of almost 4 acres, the living and play areas to the rear of the house enjoy glorious, elevated, south facing views over fields and woods with occasional glimpses of the Pyrenees. The farmhouse is comfortable, well equipped and spacious. There is double glazing and gas fired central heating. The kitchen has a gas hob and an electric oven. A secure, private graveled driveway leads to a spacious parking area. An old stone staircase leads up to a covered dining terrace and front door.

There are extensive lawns and shaded areas around the house. The large swimming pool has stone paving, is partially fenced, has Roman steps and is bathed in sunshine throughout the day.

On the property there is on old stone bread oven with a mill house and a covered well.

The Aveyron is minutes away, down the hill and is ideal for canooing or kayaaking and fishing. The mediaeval village of Varen is on the river nearby and is 15 minutes upstream from ancient market town St Antonin Noble Val. Verfeil and Najac are close by and the Historic bastide town of Cordes sur Ciel is 20 minutes south.

Une sensation de plénitude absolue
Un endroit magnifique, de l'espace, de la nature, de la belle pierre avec ces petits villages aux alentours. Tout d'abord, l'annonce est tout à fait conforme et la réalité au delà. Nous nous sommes tellement bien sentis dans cette vaste ferme transformée en paradis, et dans cette région magnifique, que nous avons eu du mal à la quitter après 15 jours. Merci à Kate et Eric de nous avoir permis ces fabuleuses vacances avec nos enfants qui se sont éclatés à la piscine et au tennis. Dominique

Lovely property in an excellent rural location
Well equipped spacious property. Plenty of outdoor shaded space with pool in sunshine. Lots of pretty villages to visit in the area. Children especially enjoyed pool, canoeing in Averyon and playing in river and on inflatables at Laguepie.

Super Lage
Schönes Aussengelände, super Lage, toller Tennisplatz. 2 Liegen zu wenig und zu wenig Schattenplätze mit der tollen Aussicht. Außenbeleuchtung für Abends zu wenig.

Why they chose this property

We and our 4 children love relaxing by the pool. We enjoy playing tennis as well as table tennis, walking around the lovely countryside, kayaking up and down the nearby Aveyron and visiting nearby historic towns. Night markets and fêtes during the summer are another highlight.

What makes this property unique

A very peaceful, secure and quiet location on the edge of a tiny hamlet. Set in lovely countryside close to ancient, picturesque villages, the Aveyron river and magnificent gorges.
