田舎の小規模住宅の大きなプールと改装された石造りの納屋

We relocated as a family (with the dog, a hen, a rabbit and fish!) in May 2016 - looking for a more self sufficient lifestyle. We moved to the Hamlet of Dolmayrac and began our dream. We have renovated the barn for the past year , whilst working hard on the land, re-building of the well and increasing our animals! We can safely say we now have a small holding with various breeds of chickens, cockerels, rabbits, guinea pigs, ducks, geese, quail and 1 vietnamese pot bellied pigs called Dixie!
We have a very organic lifestyle, are vegetarian and working hard to be more and more self sufficient over the years. Seasonal fruits and vegetables are available for all guests.

The property has lots of space, potential, land, beautiful trees and charm. It is in a quiet hamlet but not too secluded as it is only 2 kms away from the nearest village having a supermarket, 3 bakeries, bank, launderette, school, market and various shops. It is a haven for children being very safe (we also have electric gates on the front and a long driveway before arriving at the small road). The children can camp out in the summer on the land as there is plenty of space for everyone.
The main property has been renovated previously but kept its beautiful french charm with its blue window shutters, original windows and log burners.

Surrounded by fields and valleys so ideal for walkers with many colour coded walks to take starting from 90mins to full day out walks. Bikes are available to wonder around the quiet lanes (2 kms to a takeaway pizza /cafe/bar in Dolmayrac) quiet, peaceful, amongst the carrying on of a small holding - ideal if you are an animal lover or would like to introduce your children to this way of life and collect your fresh eggs in the morning from the hens! The pool area is completely safe with a pool alarm, hedgerows which back on to our field and locked gates either side so that no one can get in or wonder off. The pool also has two entrances into the main living area of the Gite or if you go through one of the gates, you are in the walnut grove/trampoline area - or the other gate leads to the door into the kingsize bedrooms.
The curtains all have blackout liners and electric blankets for the winter aswell as underfloor heating - maintaining the heat at a constant temperature.
The kitchen has a reverse osmosis water filter - so no need to buy bottled water whilst you are here and a Nespresso coffee machine! There are daily markets around the area and 2 particularly good organic markets a week with plenty of seasonal fresh produce.
The land is ripe with various fruit trees: cherry, apple, pear, peach, fig aswell as grapes, walnuts and almonds.
