About this house rental
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.
A secure, private gravel driveway leads to a spacious parking area. An old stone staircase leads up to a covered dining terrace and front door.
The farmhouse is comfortable and spacious. Windows are double glazed with shutters and some have magnetic or roll down fly wire. The kitchen has old floor tiles, is well equipped with a gas hob and an electric oven. Living areas and bedrooms are well appointed and have exposed, polished floorboards. The ceilings have many exposed oak beams.
There are extensive lawns and shaded areas around the house. The large swimming pool is surrounded by artificial grass, is partially fenced, has Roman steps and is bathed in sunshine throughout the day. The artificial grass tennis court is 20 metres from the swimming pool. There is an outdoor table tennis table, a swing and a large hammock.
In the grounds of the property, there is on old stone bread oven and a secure, covered well.
The Aveyron River is 10 minutes away, down the hill and is ideal for canooing or kayaaking and fishing. The mediaeval villages of Varen and Lagoupie are on the river nearby and 15 minutes downstream is the ancient market town of St Antonin Noble Val. The ancient town of Najac is close by and the historic bastide town of Cordes sur Ciel is 20 minutes away.

We had a great time at this property- it was private, peaceful and in a beautiful setting. The kids loved the pool, and tennis court was really special. Excellent all round.

We’ve just returned from a very relaxing 2 weeks at this lovely property. The house is tucked away down a very narrow lane at the end of a small hamlet. The owners’ directions were very clear and helpful.
We loved the quirkiness and traditional features of the house and the huge garden, outside areas and pool were delightful (we did think that for families with younger children or non-swimmers, it would be helpful to have depth markings in the pool as it shelves quite steeply). The views over the garden are wonderful and we were lucky to see some red deer in the garden. We didn’t use the tennis court but it’s a great feature and we would recommend bringing your racquets.
It’s a big house and suited us well as 2 couples; we had a double bedroom and bathroom each (the large basement bedroom a very nice en-suite); the first floor double using a family bathroom downstairs on the ground floor. The other two bedrooms are accessed by separate spiral staircases. The one is a loft room with a handbasin and bidet but no door. This may not work for another couple but would be fine for older children.
Interaction with the host was great throughout. Eric replied quickly and helpfully via email to a couple of minor questions whilst we were there.
Overall, the house is very well-equipped and in a great location to offer a complete “get away from it all” break whilst being in easy reach of the many beautiful bastide villages and towns in the region. Highly recommended!

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.

Wunderbarer Urlaub auf dem riesigen Grundstück mit Tennisplatz, Pool, mehreren Terrassen und herrlichen Rückzugsorten. Sehr angenehmer und unkomplizierter Kontakt zu dem Vermieter Eric, der auch remote stets schnell erreichbar ist. Das Haus selbst liegt in einer kleinen Siedlung in der Nähe von Varen mit traumhaft schöner Aussicht auf die Umgebung. Das Grundstück ist sehr weitläufig, der Kunstrasen-Tennisplatz in top Zustand, der Pool war riesig und viele kleine Plätze zum sitzen und lesen. Im Untergeschoss konnten unsere großen Kinder separat schlafen. Die Bettwäsche war extra eingeschweißt und vorab desinfiziert. Da wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt haben, ist das Haus eine klare Empfehlung!
