The cottage has been lovingly renovated and extended by its owner. It sits comfortably on the side of a south facing valley overlooking the river Lot, 500 feet below and Entraygues-sur-Truyere. The magnificent valleys and hills give stunning views over this wonderful region of the Aveyron.

  Beyond the kitchen is a lovely sunny dining area with a large dining table and 2 French windows lead out to the pool and terrace.
