Photos and Description of the Villeneuve-sur-Lot area vacation cottage rental
An ideal and perfect cottage in wonderful surroundings for "chilling out".
Summary:
A delightful old Mill House, circa 1800's, built in local Quercy stone, sympathetically and totally refurbished and modernised by the owners creating a charming, comfortable cottage full of warmth and ambience.
Situated in a quiet valley, on its own, it is a haven of peace and tranquillity - an ideal spot for winding down!
The house and verandah overlook a pretty mill pond with the mill stream running alongside. The bastide town of Tournon d'Agenais is only a few minutes drive away where you will find bars, restaurants, general shops, pavement cafes, all mainly surrounding the delightful square. The market town of Fumel is 10 kms away for the larger supermarkets, more shops and good restaurants.
An ideal and perfect cottage in wonderful surroundings for "chilling out".
Highly recommended.
