Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
In a picturesque rural setting, set on thirty acres of flower-filled grounds shared with just one other maison, this romantic home beckons. While away the days in your private pool with the southern French sun on your skin, or chill out indoors surrounded by charming original features. With wood-beamed ceilings and exposed stone walls, this home is the epitome of country chic – especially when you consider its contemporary furnishings. The owners have balanced out the rustic decor with sleek lighting, modern wall art and an industrial-style kitchen. Here, keen cooks will find everything they need to prepare a delicious meal with fresh local produce (your host will happily help you fill the fridge). Enjoy your creation al fresco with the sounds of nature for company. While you're in the area, why not treat yourself to a tour of local vineyards? This region is home to some of the country's finest wineries, after all. Cahors on the River Lot is just half an hour away – saunter through the manicured gardens and take home a bottle of the town's famously rich red wine.

About France
You could easily take a lifetime’s worth of French holidays and still feel like you haven’t scratched the nation’s surface. The most visited country in the world, France has long inspired artists, revolutionaries, dreamers, and bons vivants with its storybook landscapes, artistic treasures, and cultural idiosyncrasies. Paris is, of course, the country’s glittering centrepiece but there are countless beauty spots worth discovering outside of the City of Light. Sun yourself...

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
