Traditional French house with private pool and gardens.

Another thoroughly enjoyable three week stay at our favourite house near Caylus and St Antonin.

Every other reviewer has said this but it bears repeating: this is such a beautiful house, fantastically well equipped, in a great location, with a lovely pool. Two weeks was not enough! Our first week coincided with the end of the heat wave and so we were very grateful to be able to spend the afternoons in the pool after we'd braved the morning heat seeing the local sights - St-Antonin-Noble-Val's market on Sunday mornings is well worth getting up early for (wed recommend parking on the D19 road that leads in from Caylus - Avenue Capin on Google Maps - rather than trying the car parks), the Phosphatière du Cloup d'Aural (a former phosphate mine and now geological treasure trove) was fascinating, Bruniquel and Najac castles both awe inspiring, Peche Merle caves a little bit further away but with paintings and rock formations you'll not see anywhere else. Canoeing in St-Antonin was another highlight - the company we used, Nature Escapade, were great. As well as a fantastic kitchen (plentiful utensils, pans, etc., and as keen cooks we know how rare it is to find such sharp knives in a self-catering property!) there are books and games that our 7-year-old lapped up. The house has been beautifully converted from the school it once was, keeping lovely features like the old stone bread oven in one of the bedrooms, whilst still providing all the mod cons you could want, and very tasteful decor. This holiday was a long time coming as we were first due to travel just as the lockdown hit at the end of summer 2020, and a huge thank you to Justin and Natasha for being so accommodating and helpful throughout!

The house is a bit like "coming home", it has a lot of charm, and there are lots of different corners to it, all perfect for some part of the day. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. Together with the (big) pool, and the nice surroundings (medieval villages, scenery) this is all you want to enjoy the south-of-france-feeling.

Super villa hyper équipée! Nous n’avons manqué de rien. Draps, essuies de bain, essuies de plage.. Tout était fournis. Jusque dans les détails! Des mouchoirs dans chaque chambres, papier toilettes à volonté,du savon dans chaque salles de bains.. Des propriétaires très accessibles! Juste dommage qu’on ait pas eu l’occasion de se rencontrer. Une piscine très bien entretenue! Beaucoup d’espace dans la villa qui est décorée avec beaucoup de goût!

Ein wunderschönes "Zu Hause" in einer traumhaften Umgebung, so liebevoll eingerichtet, dass man gar nicht mehr weg möchte. Ganz lieben Dank an Natasha und Justin!!

This is a gorgeous house. The photos on the website do not do it justice. Very spacious, great pool and very well equipped.

Un ancienne école reconvertie en une jolie maison décorée avec gout. Bien équipée, bonne literie. Nous avons profité pleinement de la piscine chauffée. Les - : il manque des volets ou rideaux occultants dans la chambre parentale; la télévision ne reçoit pas les chaines françaises, il n'y a pas de radio; la piscine doit être nettoyée (robot) plus fréquemment.
