Photos and Description of the Aveyron vacation farmhouse rental

Behind the distinctive arched wooden gates of 'Les Portails' lies a haven of tranquility. From the garden feast your eyes on the rolling hills of the Aveyron countryside & absorb its natural beauty. The large garden is mostly laid to grass puctuated with a variety of fruit trees, which as well as offering fruits in their season, provide welcome shade. 'Les Portails' is a converted farmhouse with its own open sided barn & half an acre of garden. The house has been carefully restored & whilst retaining many original features & furnished substantially in local traditional style it offers comfortable accommodation for 8. A great place to relax & unwind

Sanvensa, the nearest village offers all the basics. La Fouillade has a larger range of shops, an excellent butchers, a bakers and a small supermarket.

Don't miss the market on Thursday mornings, centred in the 'Place Notre Dame'. There is a wide choice of restaurants both in Villefranche and within a reasonable distance from 'Les Portails'. For the wine lover Cahors and Gaillac are the regional wines. There are, of course, other less well-known local wines. All very drinkable! If you want an energetic holiday available sports include walking, tennis, riding, fishing, canoeing, cycling, fishing & golf (30 miles). The Aveyron is one of the largest departments and one of the least populated.
