We have presented pictures in the four seasons and point out that the Winters in the Lot region of France are definitively mild, Summers are a delight in a warm balance of temperature, Autumn is the fun time of picking chestnuts and walnuts on the estate, Autumn is more like an English summer and finally Spring is just a mass of colour with the start of the French market season -
Enter onto a tree lined drive way and through a stone medieval arch and pigeonnier, to your fantasy dream home.
This fine old 1650 manoir is fully renovated, stone, circa 4 ha with a carp stocked lake, located near France's greatest valley, the Vallee Du Lot. Sufficient land area is available for expansion if so desired.

The property makes an ideal country home but also has the potential to be operated as a small hotel or for the barn development of gites. It is very close to Rocamadour, a major French tourist attraction .SEE PICTURE.
With 23 rooms and passages in total - 7 main bedrooms, a stone barn in fine structural condition and with the potential to renovate up to 3 - 5 gites or self catering apartments. Just over an hour flight to London Stansted from Rodez airport, cheap flights and a new airport to be completed next year in Brive.
A stunning feature of the property is the two 'Inglenook' open fireplaces, on each floor (dining room and lounge) as well as the two ancient but traditional French kitchens, no longer in use and called 'souillards'.
The enormous top floor holiday apartment is circa 170sqm & includes 3 bedrooms, the main bedroom is ensuite, separate bathroom and sitting room / lounge. For use as 2 room rentals or the entire apartment as guest accomodation if so wished. The barbecue, lake side area and goldfish ponds are tranquil and colourful, surrounded by rows of hydrangeas. With skiing,fishing,cycling or walking in quite countryside on your doorstep, far away from the maddening crowd. This property is uniquely idyllic. Whilst close to the village ,walking for your pint of milk, 5 minutes and 20 mins from larger towns towns for a big shop.
Situated on the edge of the Parc Naturel, close to the spectacular sites of Rocamadour and St Cirq Lapopie. Near the ski resort of Le Lioran - 67kms . the property has been tastefully restored to its original elegance with the new features of a new 3 oven Aga range in the cuisine. The dining room would be the envy of the 'Cavaliers." Construction on this manor house commenced long before the birth of George Washington and survived the turbulent times of the French revolution of 1789 -1799 and reign of Napoleon Bonaparte 1769 - 1821. The barn is in excellent condition and well cared for, in both structure and roof.
The Midi Pyrenees are ideal for mountain biking and walking and there is white water rafting on the Lot, Cele or Dordogne rivers as well as rock-climbing centres.

There is a good choice of golf courses throughout the region, easily accessible and inexpensive.
