At "Les Pegouriés," we have three separate, self-contained gites. ('Gite' is French for a simple but comfortable, self-catering holiday home in the countryside.) Gite One, with private pool, sleeps six to eight people. Gite Two sleeps two to four. Gite Three sleeps two or three. The Gites have been carefully converted from beautiful ancient barns and are surrounded by 15 acres of private wild gardens, woods, and fields.
Inside, each gite has exposed timbers and other original features. They are spacious and well equipped, extensive facilities include well-appointed kitchen areas (including microwave and dishwasher in Gite One), gas cooker, and refrigerator. There’s also a separate freezer, washing machine, barbecues, bikes, books, maps, guide books, and games including croquet, table tennis, and badminton.
The area is excellent for walking, cycling and exploring. There are good shops, markets, and restaurants locally. You will find plenty to do and see here. "Les Pégouriés" is an ideal base from which to explore the Lot and Célé Valleys, where the rivers cut deep into the limestone, creating beautiful and dramatic scenery. Villages cling to the cliffs, and traditional farms still flourish, with their fields of tobacco, maize, and sunflowers.
The history and way of life of former generations are evident in all you see, from the cave paintings of Peche Merle, the nearby picturesque village of St Cirq-la-Popie, the chateaux and the ancient places of worship, to the simple hamlets and villages, the rolling cultivated land and the wild landscapes beyond.
