Sunflower 4* - Quiet & relaxing cottage in a courtyard, perfect for families

Nestled along a quiet country lane, amidst fields and woodland lies a charming ancient farm conversion retaining many of its original features. Sunflower is one of three cottages, alongside the Manoir, which surround a beautiful, calm and safe private courtyard. Vines and climbing flowering plants create privacy between the cottages.

Sunflower sleeps 6 in a king sized and two twin, oak beamed, bedrooms. The beds in one of the twin bedrooms can be converted to a double if desired.

The whole site encompasses the Manoir and cottages, Sunflower, Wisteria and Poppy, which are individually available or can be booked for large groups with exclusive use of all the facilities. The courtyard enables groups to socialise together yet the cottages gives flexibility and space for guests to relax on their own.

Sunflower offers a very comfortable living space, in a large open plan sitting and dining room with very well equipped and fully fitted integrated kitchen. The cottage benefits from its own private terrace with patio furniture and a barbecue to help make outdoor living fun. There is a large wood burning stove for the cooler evenings.

Sunflower has shared access to the large swimming pool (11m x 5m) with sun-loungers and parasols. The pool is nestled within a large garden which provides plenty of space to enjoy outdoor games such as football, badminton, rounders. In addition there is a Boules area, swings and a full-sized table tennis table.

The gardens have a variety of apple, plum, kiwi, hazelnut and walnut trees which alongside an abundance of local wildlife, including wild deer, red squirrels and many birds of prey that can be seen in the grounds, makes the location a haven for nature lovers. The warm, clear nights give a spectacular view of the star constellations adding to the overall tranquillity of Malbernat.

The games room has a pool table, football table and a wide selection of board games.

Pets are very welcome.

Quality bed linen, blankets, towels and beach towels (for the pool) are provided. Cots, baby baths, highchairs, changing mats, potties and a stair gate are available as are washing machines, irons & ironing boards.

English-speaking owners are discreetly on site - available to provide advice as to what's available in the area and to help in any way they can to make your holiday as great as it can be.

Characterful gite in a small commune of other gites and a manor house
We arrived to a warm welcome from Glenn, Val and Pluto! Pluto, a 10-month-old field spaniel, won us over from the start and was a frequent visitor to our gite and as dog lovers we were very happy for her to do that! However, there were others who weren't as keen and she was kept away whenever they were at their gite. We were shown into our gite, Sunflower, and were surprised by how spacious it was. Downstairs comprised a newly refurbished kitchen, lounge area with comfy leather sofas and a large dining area. Upstairs the 3 bedrooms were all of a decent size and the bathroom with shower ideal for our needs. The building is very old and the upstairs floorboards were quite creaky but that was to be expected. There are several other gites nearby (each has its own private outdoor patio) as well as a manor house. They were all full when we were there and we met some lovely people. Glenn and Val were excellent hosts. They were close by if you wanted them for anything and as we are looking for a second home in France, we found their knowledge and experience very helpful. We visited Rocamadour and several other lovely villages nearby. Highly recommend 'La Recreation' for an evening meal. Absolutely gorgeous food! Thank you Glenn and Val for a memorable stay!

Fantastic gites, highly recommended!
We booked for our family of 4 and were very impressed with the gite (proper comfy sofas and a welcome pack of fresh bread, milk and other thoughtful items in arrival!) Lots of things provided which helped make the stay a delight. Hugh quality furnishings throughout. A warm welcome from Val and Glenn added to the charm and ease of our stay. Beautiful spacious surroundings as well. Book quickly before they sell out!

Paradise in the Lot
We absolutely loved staying here. The house and kitchen were fully equipped, we had everything we needed, or wanted. We arrived to a lovely welcome pack (even one for the dog!) and roaring log fire. The setting is beautiful and really quiet, but the local village, shop, boulangerie, and pub/restaurant are close by. There are fabulous walks right on the doorstep and Glenn and Val couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. We will definately be coming back, it was such a relaxing and enjoyable stay!

Magnifique petit manoir
C'est un endroit idéal pour passer des vacances en famille ou entre amis. Ce sont plusieurs gites mais bien indépendants les uns des autres, bien arborés et fleuris, un peu isolé pour plus de tranquilité avec une piscine. Les propriétaires présents sur les lieux sont très accueillants et à l'écoute des besoins. L'endroit est superbe

Superbe gîte avec un accueil plus que chaleureux
Nous avons passés une merveilleuse semaine dans cet endroit superbe. Le gîte est très propre et décoré avec goût (les photos ne rendent pas justice!). Tout est mis à disposition dès l’arrivée pour faciliter l’entrée (les petits plus et les petites attentions, cadeaux). La piscine et les extérieurs (avec toutes les commodités : jeux de boules, Ping Pong et très grand jardin) sont très agréables et très bien entretenus. Val et Glenn sont de charmants hôtes, très attentionnés, chaleureux et cela rend le séjour encore meilleur !
