You're high on a plateau here surrounded by rolling farmland with the dramatic ridges and vales typical of the Quercy. Wildlife is abundant and the meadows which surround the house and cottage are a botanist's dream. Both properties have well-equipped kitchens and all the basics you need for cooking. A welcome hamper includes a bottle of local wine and jam. In season you can help yourselves to figs and apples.

The cottage has its own big garden with lawn for romping children and mature trees to provide shade for snoozing adults. Both properties have outdoor eating areas and a barbecue; on every side are views of the huge valley and hills beyond. A big swimming pool also has an outdoor shower, a children's play area and a chest full of pool toys and cushions.

The pretty village of Monclar-de-Quercy is only 1km away so you can wander down for a good bakery and a spot of people watching in a cafe filled with locals. Feel French.

Feeling lazy today ? Just relax by the largest private pool of the area! If you manage to move a bit... enjoy the wonderful view on the wild and large meadow. If you are lucky, you may see wild deers or does. They visit Daramousque almost every day.
Even in the winter time, there is plenty of things to do: wine tasting, long walks in the Gresigne forest, bike rides, museums at Montauban, and even a small cinema place in Monclar! You can also relax by the open fire at the Villa. What a wonderful world!
Crazy about History and medieval villages ? There is plenty of opportunities to visit old bastides at less than 30 minuets of Daramousque: Penne, Puycelsi, Bruniquel, Castelnau de Montmirail, Cordes sur Ciel, Lisle-sur-le-Tarn,... and many more!
Wine tasting is your favorite activity: you need to plan to stay at Daramousque for several weeks: Gaillac, Fronton, Cotes du Quercy,... many famous wineyards with Red, white, and rose wines for all types of meals. Enjoy...with moderation!
Want to get some exercise? Kayaking on the Aveyron, via ferrata on the Aveyron gorges, climbing vertical walls in the gorges, walking in the forest of Grésigne, cycling in the middle of the vineyards or the forest, there is plenty of choices for you
Ready to travel a couple of hours by car ? From Daramousque, you can reach the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean, and the sky slopes of Pyrenees mountains. By clear sky, if you watch carefully towards South from Daramousque, you can see the mountains!

"We really enjoyed our week's stay here. The location is beautiful with sprawling fields and beautiful countryside. The saltwater pool is lovely and Catherine and Jean Claude take all the hassle away from you in maintaining the pool daily. There are some superb Bastide towns to visit. Also, some water sports available if that takes your fancy. A perfect hideaway for families or couples. Our accommodation was very comfortable and when we got hot, we dipped in the pool. Will certainly contemplate returning another year. The BBQ was the icing on the cake!"

"Returned for 2 weeks this year in this beautiful place. The house is very well appointed ( and the gite too) and we love the covered terrace with fantastic views over the valley The salt pool is large and we swam every day. The field is awash with flowers with a mass of various orchids;we saw butterflies deer and heard owls .Catherine and Jean Claude are very welcoming and hospitable and are keen to help in any way. The valley of the Aveyron is beautiful with lovely bastide towns to visit. Good for cycling and walking."

"We had a fabulous holiday at Daramousque. The villa is beautiful and exceptionally well maintained. The veranda is brilliant as it provides shade during the day and has great views. We had every meal outside! The pool is the best (and biggest) we have ever had. Catherine is a very kind, considerate host who goes the extra mile to make sure her guests have a lovely time."

"Spent a wonderfully relaxing week at Daramousque. Catherine gave us a warm welcome and was on hand whenever needed. Highlights for us were the swimming pool, the comfy chairs in the shade and great walks with wildlife. The only downside was the terrible EU referendum result. Local wines helped (a little)!! Would fully recommend to others and look forward to returning one day."

"We stayed at Daramousque for 2 weeks in August. The villa was elegantly furnished, very well equipped and extremely spacious for our family of 5. The highlight for us was the huge veranda overlooking the pool, with stunning views over the countryside. Probably the best self catering property we have ever stayed in and very reasonably priced."

"We rented both properties. They were clean, exceptionally well equipped and comfortable. The location was great and views superb. Did we mention the great pool!!! Catherine is attentive but unobtrusive. The best kind of host. All in all a great holiday in this lovely part of France."

junio 2013

"We stayed at Daramousque for the 4th time this year and loved it. We have two young kids who enjoyed the pool and roaming in the meadows collecting wild herbs. It's in a really beautiful location, well maintained and spotlessly clean. There's lots to do in the area: canoeing, horse riding, bastide villages, markets.....If you get bored, it's your own fault. The owners are very friendly and helpful. I would recommend it most highly for families - and for grand parents too. "

agosto 2012

"Wonderful week in the cottage. Peaceful and quiet but Catherine always on hand with her suggestions for our day's exploration of the surrounding medieval villages. Beautiful setting and wide reaching views of the countryside. Spotlessly clean and very well equipped."
