About this property
Manor East Wing. Aveyron-Cantal. Stunning Views Over River Lot, Pool, Sleeps 6.
Set in a tranquil rural location, in the mid reaches of the Lot valley, on the boarders of Aveyron & Cantal this historic manor house sits above the meandering waters of the beautiful river lot with panoramic views across the wooded valley.
Blanadet is a 3 floor 16th Century Manor House surrounded by gardens.
Vivian my wife and I live here full time and will always be able to help with any queries you have during your stay.
The guest East Wing is a single floor accommodation on the first floor entered privately through the rear courtyard.
It consists of 3 bedrooms all accessed off the external, covered balcony.
The lounge, kitchen and dining area is opposite, also accessed off the balcony.
The pictures show the 3 en suite rooms with showers.
The guests also have sole use of the rear courtyard below, there is table seating and a BBQ here.
As well as use of our private pool, which we also use from time to time.
The table and chairs at the end of the pool and the decked area with sun loungers are for the sole use of our guests, we keep ourselves to the end by the pool room.
Guests are welcome to use our fridge and the sink in the pool room.
We also encourage you to take a walk around any part of our gardens, my wife and I strive to keep it flourishing.
Please however note that there are outside stairs at Blanadet to reach both the pool and the accommodation, for this reason the property is not suitable for anyone with mobility impairments.
We ask that children are accompanied around the pool at all times.
The house is situated above the hamlet of Le port, 5 minutes drive from the village of Vieillevie 5 miles west of the medieval village of Entraygues in the Aveyron department. This area is the most beautiful stretch of the lot valley.
Unspoiled by tourism, the region offers the mountains, gorges and valleys of the southern tip of the Cantal and Aveyron departments we have miles of designated footpaths abundant with flowers and wildlife, historic medieval villages such as Conques and Estaing; fine chateaux and the attractive towns of Rodez and Aurillac.
The immediate area is a recognized center for walking and canoeing. Some walks lead direct from the house and Le port has its own canoe school . In summer fetes and spectacles are arranged locally.

About the host
Hosted by malcolm lucas
We are a husband & wife team running the business and living in the West wing of Blanadet and from time to time get help from our family.
Skipping though the years we have been in the holiday leisure industry since the early 70s, first in South Wales with holiday cottages letting, due to family reasons we relocated on the Thames with a small marina and a hire boat operation, early 90s we started a Beach Restaurant on the east coast, late 90s moved to France for a calmer life, began restoring holiday property for English owner and realized it would be a good time in our lives to run a B&B but now prefer to host self catering.

Why they chose this property
We purchased Blanadet Manior in the mid reaches of the Lot Valley about 25 year ago and started the renovation work. It has been a long road to get the property back to its original state, we have updated to modern standards and retained the original fabric and features. We enjoy living in the west wing of this huge house, the new self catering unit is our currant project, still get time to relax round our swimming pool and garden. Vivian is a keen gardener and raises most of the plants from seeds and cuttings in the green house, while Malcolm is kept busy with grounds & building maintenance. We both have an interest in cooking and spend many hour preparing meals for our guest's. Having lived in France for 25 year as you would expect we know most of the restaurants & places of interest.
