Beautifully Restored, Large French Villa On The Banks Of The River Cele.

We absolutely loved this house and the back garden where we spent most evenings and early mornings. The thick walls and effective shutters meant we kept the house cool despite searing heat. Philippe was an excellent and most helpful host and started us off with a nice supply of goodies. The evening we spent with Philippe and Anne (neither of whom we’d ever met before) will stay with us for a long time. I highly recommend this house - and I’ve not even talked about the location which is so convenient for the amazing caves at Peche Merle, the incredible town of Saint Cirq Lapopie and canoeing/swimming on the river Célé

Fantastic house, 3 bathrooms, so optimal for 3 couples. Philippe is a great person, welcomed us with a basket of goodies. Great village with 2 good and pleasant restaurants. Swimming in the river was very good. The nearby caves with drawings were an excellent experience. Visits to Cahors and to Sainte-Cir-Lapopie were also really worth while. All in all a great holiday.

Our stay a Phillip's house was a wonderful retreat from the bustling life of big cities and American work life. The house was well furnished and large with every amenity we could desire. It was a pleasure to stay in this small community of about 400 people with welcoming neighbors, multiple restaurants, a bustling boulangerie and a quiet river flowing through it. While we were only two people, it was clear that the house could accommodate several more guests in excellent fashion. The multiple bedrooms and bathrooms provide for easily shared accommodations. Phillip was always available if we had questions about the house or the community. We were absolutely delighted by the house, Phillip and his partner, and the community. Our stay was during one of the warmest periods of the year, but the house stayed cool during the day. The dry warm air cooled quickly at night to make sleeping completely comfortable. You might even need a jacket if dining late outside on the hottest days. One fantastic surprise was the complete lack of mosquitos in this village. We still haven't figured out how that can be in a river valley but greatly appreciated it. This river valley often draws water-loving tourists during the summer, but the house and the area surrounding it was never inundated with wandering crowds. Expect to see some hikers making the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage walk past the front of the house every day often hoping to stop at the Boulangerie a few hundred meters down the road. The village is also the home of the Pech Merle Cave and its prehistoric cave paintings. This is a must see for all. My wife an I would recommend this property to everyone who wants a wonderful stay in a small French village.

A very pleasant week spent in a lovely house in a beautiful area, an ideal place to celebrate my 60th birthday with friends and family. We stayed for a week I only wish it had been two ! The house has plenty of space and well sized bedrooms and bathrooms , eating in the garden area is amazing with the dramatic cliffs as a backdrop. The pretty village has a small supermarket and Bakery, we eat out in the village a couple of times and we were not disappointed. If you enjoy walking, cycling, kayaking, sightseeing or just a bit of peace and quiet I would recommend Beaucele.
