Beautifully restored dovecote

Here is a superb dovecote of the XIX century, tastefully restored in a country and comfortable spirit.

The Rataboul dovecote is an ideal retreat for a couple, with additional space for two adults or two children. In the middle of a large garden, surrounded by plum trees. The terrace with its lounge chairs offers to see, depending on the year, seas of wheat, soybeans or sunflowers grown organically.

Built of Causse du Quercy cut stone, raw materials such as travertine for the floor, oak for the parquet and bathroom furniture, the beech staircase.

You will find on the ground floor the dining room; with a beautiful table for 4 people; the kitchen with kettle, toaster, two hotplates and a fridge for summer cooking. Open to the living room, you can sit on sofas overlooking the surrounding countryside. You will enjoy the reliefs of the countryside at every moment.

A staircase leads you to the first floor in a cathedral room, with the visible framework. You will find a large double bed to spend very sweet nights. The bathroom is small but comfortable, with its shower and its beautiful corner sink.
There are sun loungers and a table for dining at sunset. In the nearby hangar, there is free access to a ping pong table and a large trampoline.

Très bonnes vacances
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans un endroit très calme et accueillant comme nous l’avions imaginé au vu des descriptions et photos de l’annonce. Les propriétaires ont été très à l’écoute de nos demandes et très réactifs, mention très bien.

Le petit paradis
Nous étions venus chercher le repos et la détente au calme, nous n'avons pas été déçus. L'originalité du pigeonnier propre et très bien équipé idéalement situé au carrefour de grand site touristiques comme St Cirq Lapopie et Cordes sur ciel. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour.

Comme à la maison
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans ce magnifique pigeonnier restauré et décoré avec beaucoup de goût. Nous nous sommes sentis comme à la maison tellement c'était propre et bien équipé. Le pigeonnier allie la chaleur d'une décoration délicieuse et cosy, le charme d'un poêle à l'ancienne avec la modernité de la cuisine ou la salle de bain. C'est encore plus beau que sur les photos. La couverture en laine de la chambre à coucher est juste à tomber par terre. Nous avons passé de longs moments à profiter de la vue, juste indescriptible, apaisante, magique. Nous avons vu des biches sur le champ d'en face. Les poules nous ont tenu compagnie tout le long du séjour, c'était vraiment très drôle et agréable. Les échanges avec Laetitia étaient parfaits alors qu'elle était en vacances, lorsque nous avons demandé le séjour. Notre accueil a été parfait, tout était impeccable et nous avons autant apprécié la bonne bouteille de vin dégustée au coin du poêle que le joli mini-bouquet de fleurs champêtres posé à côté et complété par un joli petit savon sentant délicieusement bon. De très bons conseils sur le classeur très complet et utile. Nous avons testé le bon boucher et le bon pain de Puylaroque que nous vous recommandons ;)

Excellent gîte, calme et très bien situé
1 semaine de repos dans ce pigeonnier très bien restauré et aménagé fonctionnellement. Chambre cathédrale impressionnante, avec une literie excellente. La situation est très calme, pas un bruit de jour comme de nuit ! Jolie terrasse face aux champs (cultures Bio), on voit passer les chevreuils en prenant l'apéro ! Accès facile à plusieurs villes et villages, aux rivières Lot et Aveyron pour la baignade et le kayac. Propriétaires très à l'écoute et réactifs, tout en préservant notre intimité. Bref, nous sommes ravis de notre séjour !
