Gîtes de France® - Gîte de Merle Castel

A peaceful retreat located in a popular tourist region (Rocamadour, Cahors, Padirac, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, Figeac…), known for its fine dining and offering a variety of activities (hiking, biking…). This former blacksmith’s shop is situated in the heart of a small, very quiet hamlet. It’s ideal for peaceful, relaxing moments with its view of the valley! The interior is bright; you’ll find all the comforts you could hope for, and the beds will be made upon your arrival! The outdoor area will charm you with its pool house and private pool (11 m x 5 m), open from June through late September; secured by a cover and separated from the cottage by a fence with a gate, its covered terrace, its swing, and let’s not forget its pétanque court. During the summer, the village comes alive with its village festival and its bread festival in September. It’s close to Cahors, where you can explore its iconic Valentré Bridge, as well as many other villages such as Rocamadour, Padirac, Gramat, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, Figeac, and Cabrerets with its prehistoric Pech Merle cave...
