Set in a little hamlet a short drive from Puy-l’Évêque, L'Ancien Presbytère is a beautifully restored country home exuding traditional French charm.
Its vine-clad façade and colourful shutters add character to this country house whilst the wonderful swimming pool and shaded terrace invite slow mornings and leisurely afternoons relaxing outside. Inside, original beams and exposed stonework offer a sense of history, balanced by a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Thoughtfully renovated, the interiors flow from the fully equipped kitchen to the dining room and relaxed living space, where board games, a toy chest, and TV and PlayStation keep everyone entertained. Upstairs, three air-conditioned bedrooms provide a restful retreat. The master bedroom features a king-size bed and private shower room, while a generous family bathroom serves the remaining two double bedrooms.
Step outside and you’ll find a pretty garden bordered by mature greenery with a fish pond gently rippling nearby. The large terrace, with its shaded seating and al-fresco dining area, becomes the heart of the home on warm days. Cool off in the swimming pool or unwind with a glass of Cahors wine as the sun sets.
Set in the heart of the renowned Cahors wine region, L'Ancien Presbytère is perfectly placed for exploring this unspoilt corner of southwest France. The pretty riverside village of Puy-l’Évêque is just 5km away, with Prayssac equally nearby for morning pastries, market days and delicious meals.
Vineyards, medieval villages and fairytale castles dot the region’s landscape whilst cycling trails and river adventures are all close by. Wonderful day trips include historic Cahors, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie and Rocamadour or you could even venture north to Domme, La Roque Gageac and the Dordogne River.
