Charming - Tranquil - Simple Luxury with heart! A real gem in the heart of Aveyron
This wonderful farmhouse is a gem of a find! It's been lovingly renovated to reveal the honest charm and character of it's original roots, down to it's wooden beams and lime-washed stone walls. It also has all the amenities and touches to assure a comfortable stay: En-suite bathrooms for all three of the charming bedrooms; a fully equipped eat-in kitchen, and the wood burning stove in the main living/dining room makes even the coldest evenings the toastiest and coziest one could hope for in this romantic setting. I should also mention the beds... Great mattresses... And dressed with soft linens – simplistic luxury with heart. Situated just a skip from the small village center and some beautiful local countryside. Eleanor and Steve guided us on some magnificent walks in the area. The walk up to the river gorge is highly recommended for it's magic and majesty. And the local medieval villages in the area are picturesque and historically fascinating. We really appreciated the beauty and tranquility that Eleanor and Steve have carved out here for their guests, and I highly recommend their wonderful cottage. We didn't want to leave – and felt more connected and enriched by our experience.
