Relax to the sounds of birds and crickets, splash in the pool, enjoy the sunsets from the terrace. A perfect multi-generational family break

This old farmhouse has been converted into a comfortable and airy home with a light-filled sitting-room and space for everyone to spread out. Set within nine acres of garden, orchard and woodland, you might even see deer, red squirrels and hares about.

Let yourself in and settle in with a bottle of wine; if you're arriving late, ask your hosts about having some food shopping waiting for you. The kitchen is very well equipped and spacious enough for a couple of cooks - it leads onto the terrace where you can take in the stunning valley views whilst you dine. On the other side of the house, you’ll find another covered terrace, the large pool and a games room with ping pong and mini football.

Detailed suggestions are left of where to eat and what to do during your stay. Although it feels very peaceful and remote here, the nearest restaurant is a five-minute drive away in Castelnau-Montratier. Explore pretty bastide villages and fortified castles nearby; kayak on the Lot and Aveyron rivers when you’re feeling adventurous.

Martin & Fiona Lingeman:

Two miles away in the arcaded central square of Castelnau-Montratier, as well as the Sunday morning market there is a local produce market with live music on Wednesday evenings in July and August. Have supper at a café in the square and watch the fun!
The historic and attractive small towns of Montpezat-de-Quercy and Lauzerte (once an English garrison town!) are both within half an hour's drive. Take a stroll and explore, have a drink, and maybe end up with supper at one of several restaurants.
In Cahors, combine a trip to the market on a Wednesday or Saturday morning with a visit to the mediaeval Pont Valentré bridge, a UNESCO world heritage site. Follow that with lunch at a restaurant overlooking the river Lot, or a trip on the river itself!
Twenty minutes west of Cahors along the banks of the Lot river, the stunning historic village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie clings to a cliff overhanging the river. After exploring the narrow streets take a cruise down the river from the bank below the village.
Perched on the edge of a ravine, the extraordinary vilage of Rocamadour is the second most-visited site of pilgrimage in all of France. On the way there, try something different with a boat trip on the underground river in the Gouffre de Padirac caves!
Probably the most popular family excursion from La Borde Basse is to the delightful small town of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val, set in the beautiful and dramatic Aveyron gorge. Take a picnic, hire some kayaks or canoes and spend time exploring the river.
