Photos and Description of the Aveyron vacation farmhouse rental

The house is a fully modernised 18th century stone farmhouse but retaining original features in a rural position, the living accommodation is on the first floor which is approached by a stone stairway,this is typical of Quercy farmhouses. There is a large garden bordering the small trout stream, the River Seye. The house has a large driveway for parking. The nearby hamlet of Ginals is only 2km. from Verfeil in the Seye Valley, one of the valleys of the Midi Pyrenees. This beautiful area lies south of the Lot Valley. The whole region is unspoilt and full of charm. It abounds in fascinating medieval 'Bastide' towns and villages such as St. Antonin Noble Val, Cordes, Najac, and Albi with its fortified cathedral and Toulouse Lautrec Museum. Nearby is the breathtaking beauty of the Aveyron Gorge and further afield the spectacular Gorges du Tarn. The ancient Abbaye de Beaulieu is on the 'doorstep'and there is a Knights Templars castle among others to visit within the locality
