Formerly a nineteenth-century farm, this enchanting renovated hamlet gives you a glimpse of the past while providing the setup for modern and luxurious countryside living. It's perfect for everyone, whether you're hoping to experience long summer days by the pool followed by a moonlit banquet, a roman bath followed by a massage, or simply curling up with a good book by the fire. With three buildings to choose from, a spa and a pool house, you'll feel right at home in this little private village. Gather in the field for an outdoor yoga session, go for a game of petanque on the green, take a hot bath in the tub overlooking the gardens or throw a barbecue for everyone. The possibilities are endless and your days will be anything but mundane. Looking to explore further afield? You'll be surrounded by the quaint and picturesque French villages of the region of Aveyron – traditional stone houses, regional markets packed with vibrant local delicacies, vineyards covering the province and outdoor activities surrounded by nature. It's a feast for the senses and you'll be more than satiated.

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...
