We had wonderful 10 days at The Stables. The property itself is beautifully appointed, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. A fantastic outside space, a great pool and many hours were spent in the outside covered dining area, cool in the summer heat with beautiful views all around. We loved the peace & quiet, and the fantastic walks in the surrounding countryside. A short drive to Figeac town centre with many excellent restaurants, and a great base for exploring the delights of this region of France. The owner and manager were always helpful and responsive, and made sure we had a great holiday.
We hadden hier een fantastische vakantie. Het huis is tiptop in orde, heel ruim en zeer goed uitgerust. Aan werkelijk alles is gedacht. Het overdekt terras vonden wij helemaal geweldig. Ook als het eens wat minder weer is kan je hier buiten zitten. Ondanks het feit dat we de afgelopen week wat pech hadden met het weer, hebben we maar enkele keren binnen gegeten.De omgeving is heerlijk rustig. Je hebt heel veel privacy en er passeren amper auto's.Ook de eigenaar is zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam.De stad Figeac is vlakbij (10 min rijden). Hier vind je alles wat je nodig hebt (bakker, supermarkt, restaurants,...) Ook aan uitstapjes geen gebrek. Op max. 1 uur rijden zijn er verschillende middeleeuwse dorpjes die je kan bezoeken (Rocamadour, Saint-cirque-lapopie,...), vlakbij kan je kanoën op de rivier en in de streek kan je prehistorische grotten bezoeken. Wij gingen met de kinderen ook naar het klimbos in Figeac ( 15 min met de auto)Kortom, zowel het huis als de omgeving zijn zeker 5 sterren waard!
We hebben 2 weken met ons gezin genoten van ons verblijf.
In de omgeving is veel te doen, leuke stadjes, wandelingen en kayakken op de Cele.
Met het warme weer was het zwembad heerlijk vertoeven en de schaduw op het terrein is een hele grote pre.
Rust en ruimte in een hele mooie omgeving.
The property is absolutely gorgeous and was everything we could have wanted in a holiday home. The interior and furnishings were of an excellent quality and felt very luxurious.
The location of the property is ideal for those who want to get away from it all, and although there are other properties nearby it never felt like our privacy was being invaded.
Excellent séjour malgré la chaleur de ce début juillet.

In response to your review, we comment as follows:
In the instructions for the property sent to you it clearly states where access is and how to get into the house along with what there is to do in the area. It also provides for 4 telephone numbers to contact in case of emergency or answer any queries you may have. It essential to read these instructions and information carefully prior to arrival.
Each guest is provided with a bath towel, swimming towel, and one hand towel. In addition, there is a towel in the downstairs toilet and two kitchen towels. There is a washing machine provided in the utility room should any of these need cleaning during the 7 days. We must politely inform you that the Stables is not a hotel with hotel facilities.
The property is in rural France in the Cele valley, which is peaceful and quiet. However, internet can be disrupted due to the rural location and especially during storms. While you were there, two storms occurred, which shut down electricity and internet in the general area. When these happened you called Stephen who came over immediately to reset and ensure it was working. The area is being connected to fibre, and when we are advised of the service opportunities, we will hopefully have faster and more secure connectivity.
It was a shame that you found these issues to be of such a distraction. , perhaps next time, given your needs for ‘better service’ staying in a hotel would be a better option.
Near the very nice village of Figeac, which offers all commodities, we had a memorable stay at the "Stables" , a very peaceful house with his beautiful swimming-pool, so relaxing after after cultural and invigorating days! Thanks a lot for these great holidays

belle propriété au calme
très bien au niveau situation 10 minutes de Figeac et de nombreuses visites possibles aux alentours.
Calme, convivialité dans un environnement spacieux et verdoyant présentant beaucoup de cachet
Quelques mots clés pour qualifier notre expérience :
Maison spacieuse, très bien équipée et chaleureuse, espace parental intime, pergola très agréable, belle vue sur le parc lui-même très bien entretenu. Piscine spacieuse. Propriétaire attentif et disponible (ex. mise à disposition d'un barbecue neuf).
Très belle maison et piscine très agréable. Très propre avec beaucoup de confort.
Avec de jeunes enfants la piscine n’est pas assez sécurisée.
Maison faites pour des anglais. Tout est écrit en anglais.

Merci beaucoup pour vos commentaires. Comme nous sommes anglais, et que la plupart des invités l'ont été, il est compréhensible que la maison en soit le reflet. Nous avons fait tous les efforts possibles pour mettre en place le service de télévision pour les enfants de toutes les nationalités, et notre dossier d'accueil et d'information est en français. La gouvernante et le jardinier vivent tous deux en France et sont à proximité.
En ce qui concerne la sécurité de la piscine, la loi exige que nous donnions l'alarme d'une exigence spécifique, et c'est ce qui est prévu. L'alarme est actionnée par des adultes et il est important de noter que la responsabilité de la sécurité de tous les enfants incombe aux parents à tout moment. La merveilleuse vue de la piscine sur la campagne serait considérablement réduite si une clôture d'un mètre était construite tout autour.
Maison très confortable et arrangée avec beaucoup de goût et de soin. Accueil attentif durant toute la semaine. Très joli hameau. Toutefois, zone blanche internet et la connexion adsl est aléatoire.

Thank you very much for your comments. This year the internet has been intermittent, unlike last year. Both Free and France Telecom have been trying to resolve the problem, not helped by the August holiday period and strong electrical storms during your stay.
Les propriétaires sont très accueillants, la maison est très agréable, grande et très bien située dans un écrin de verdure au sein d'une magnifique région.
Excellentes prestations pour 6 personnes. Amateurs de calme, nature, vous serez ravis. La piscine est au rendez-vous, entretenue par une personne excellente. Les "Stables" raviront les
Nous avons passé une semaine au stables du 17 au 24 aout, et Nous avons passé un excellent séjour.
La maison est très belle, une longère / écurie restaurée avec beaucoup de soins. Le cadre est magnifique, le parc et la piscine sont très bien entretenus.
Parfait pour un couple avec 3 enfants, idéalement située près de Figeac avec tous les commerces à proximité.
Nous aurions dû louer 2 semaines car nous avons eu du mal à partir ….
David et sa famille sont très accueillant, discret et disponible merci pour votre hospitalité !
We spent a week at the stable from August 17th to 24th, and had a great time.The house is very beautiful, a farmhouse / stable restored with great care. The setting is beautiful, the park and the pool are very well maintained.
Perfect for a couple with 3 children, ideally located near Figeac with all the shops nearby.
We should have rented 2 weeks because we had a hard time leaving ...
David and his family are very hospitable, discreet and available thanks for your hospitality !
The Stables is een zeer mooi opgeknapt landhuis in een rustige omgeving met veel privacy. Van alle gemakken voorzien en eigen zwembad. Kids blij met mooie grasvelden en Netflix op de tv! Ouders blij met fantastische omgeving, mooie dorpjes en goede service van de eigenaar die naast het huis woont.
