Close to the borders of the Lot, Dordogne and Cantal (Auvergne), this paradise of peace and tranquillity sits above the 12th Century Tours de Merle, on the Franco British frontier during the 100 years war, in an undiscovered land of hills, woods and secret valleys, a utopia for walkers (the property lies in the centre of a range of magnificent walks), cyclists, equestrian and water enthusiasts. Medieval Chateaux and Churches, some of the most beautiful villages in France, (Collonges la Rouge, Salers amongst others) cultural festivals, canoeing on the Dordogne, some of the best food in France are all within easy reach. The local village St Cirque de Loutre (bread and essentials) is 5 mins by car and the main town 10 mins (all essentials including restaurants). Or you can just chill out and lay by the 6M x 12M pool, forget the tourists, pollution and stresses of modern life and relax in complete privacy and peace except for the sound of the birds, and odd rutting stag
