Farmstead in Les Junies, Lot, Midi-Pyrenees, France
Newly Renovated Farmstead in Large Grounds
Sleeps 7/9 (3 Bedrooms)
|
|
The farmstead in the hamlet of Les Pradies was built in 1807 and was originally a small holding. It comprises of a main house, a large barn which is used for storage, a piggery, a bakery and around 1 acre of grounds divided into an upper terrace and a meadow. It was owned by local villagers until 2001 and completely renovated by us in 2006/7. The house offers all the modern amenities with the traditional charm of an old farmhouse. The property has some thick stone walls to keep it cool in summer and a huge wood burner to supplement the electric heating in the winter. The property is situated in a heavily wooded area with wonderful walks, many of which are signposted and we are within easy distance of many attractions such as Rocamadour, Saint Cirq LaPopie, Cahors, Peche Merle, Toulouse to name just a few. We are equally well placed to take advantage of the wonderful local markets, restaurants and vineyards.
