Peace and quiet (expect to hear up to three cars per day) and open air, a superb pool and great views. charming old country house with lots of beautiful old towns around - only 20 minutes to Conques (straight out of Disney movie).
We had a fantastic stay at this charming house in Selves. Traveling with our two young children, we found the location perfect for exploring the beautifully preserved towns and the breathtaking nature of the region. The house itself is lovely and well-maintained, with a wonderful pool that the kids absolutely loved.
We highly recommend this house for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing and memorable holiday in this beautiful part of France.
We have fallen in love with this house! We had a small problem 9something that can occur always, we have an old house ourselves too), contacted Elizabeth and she helped us out right away. Really appreciated that! And the team taking care of the house (Graham and Viv) are really lovely people. We hope to come back one day....
La maison d'Elizabeth est cosy et accueillante, bien équipée, nous y avons passé un séjour nature et reposant.
Pas un bruit, les quelques voisins sympathiques, de belles balades à proximité, une nature omniprésente et une belle piscine! Je recommande à tous ceux qui veulent s'isoler, qui aiment marcher et qui ne craignent pas les kms!
Propriété super bel endroit calme reposant piscine très propre merci à celui qui s en occupe
A revoir mobilier extérieur piscine et table et chaises
Enlever les tapis pour les personnes allergiques
Nous recherchions un endroit calme et loin de la foule...nous avons trouvé l endroit idéal dans cette maison aveyronnaise typique. Située entre l Aubrac et le Rouergue, elle permet la découverte de beaux villages sans faire trop de km.
A découvrir.
Nous avons passez une semaine de pur bonheur dans cette maison pleine de charme et très pratique. La nature alentour est magnifique. Ici tout pousse au farniente...
