About this cottage rental
Our charming 2 bedroom cottage is attached on the west side of our main house (the former Octroi de Saint Geniez d'Olt -the official tax building constructed in 1830). We have designed the interior of our cottage with great care in order to give our guests a feeling of both charm and comfort. Our furniture design in the gite is high quality designed modern pieces, juxtaposed with beautifully crafted antiques.. A hand-painted mural on the wall of the mezzanine bedroom gives a theatrical ambiance. A beautiful antique red velvet bed in the main bedroom. A cosy wood-burning fireplace in the living area, to add warmth in the winter. Just outside of RiverRun is a charming pedestrian walk along the riverbank that takes you to the village center in just a few minutes. It's an ideal all-season retreat.

This was our 3rd visit and already planning our 4th. Think that says it all! Sarah and her husband are wonderful hosts. The property is situated right on the river with a lovely flat walk besides the river into the village, which is delightful and real France. The accommodation is quirky and very comfortable with all you need for a relaxing stay. Just great.

Cottage was in a lovely location next to river with a sweet little garden. Hosts were very welcoming, providing lots of wood for the fire and even giving us fresh eggs from their hens. Also gave us good tips on things to do in the local area. Cottage was very clean and nicely presented. The second bedroom in the loft was quite small which made it a bit tight for two couples, but otherwise everything was great.

This property was perfect for our needs and very much as described on the website. The kitchen was well equipped, the lounge and bedroom comfortable and the outside garden space a lovely place to relax. The town is very pretty with lovely riverside walks and opportunities for fishing. There were plenty of cafes, small shops and an excellent supermarket nearby. Living next door, the host was very helpful. The area itself was great for walking, picnics, fishing and we found different places to go each day. Walking by the river and finding places for our dog to swim was a particular treat as was the quality of local restaurants and the friendliness of people we met.

The property is located in a beautiful village and backs onto a walkway along a river which can take you into the town. The property is furnished to a high standard and has everything you need. You do have to advise if you want linen and towels. It's great if you have a dog as there is a small enclosed garden. There are deck chairs for sitting outside. The village is beautiful and there are places to eat and drink which are walkable. There is also a vet in the village. Our host Sarah was great and flexible with check-in and checkout times. Highly recommend.
