The Chapel at Château de Cézérac - Self-catering cottage in Lot-et-Garonne
Avenue de Cézérac, 47500 Montayral, Lot-et-Garonne
Aquitaine,
Francia
A cosy hideaway just for two, set in the courtyard of a magnificent château. Your British hosts are rescuing the estate from total neglect after discovering it on a cycle ride. They have since learned that the tower was once a toll booth for river traffic and home to pirates who plundered passing ships laden with Cahors wine.
Today, all buccaneering traces have vanished and bucolic bliss unfolds all around you: vines and scented gardens, birdsong and the gentle murmur of the river. The chapel is quietly opulent, with original stone floors, beamed ceilings and stained-glass windows living harmoniously alongside a small but handy kitchen and air conditioning for the warmer months.
Take the handcrafted spiral staircase up to your four-poster bedroom, where a breakfast balcony overlooks a 450-year-old cedar of Lebanon. Read by the pool, wander the woods or tuck into a generous welcome hamper. The owners have plenty of local tips to share.
