Region	Midi-Pyrenees
Location	Set among fields and wooded hillsides between the river Lot and the smaller river Célé, 'Les Pégouriés' offers comfortable accommodation and a tranquil setting for holidays in what remains one of the most unspoilt and fascinating areas of France

The Property:
Converted from the top storey of the smaller barn ­ with a solid floor added for insulation and privacy ­ this charming gîte has virtually all its original roof timbers intact. Velux windows make it very light and airy and give views of the surrounding countryside. With one double bedroom, this gîte is ideal for couples, but with the addition of a folding bed in the living area (free on request) will sleep three in comfort.

A cot and highchair can be supplied free of charge on request and an evening baby listening/child minding service can be provided by arrangement

Portable gas and electric heaters combined with excellent roof insulation ensure year-round warmth

There is a washing machine for the shared use of guests, as well as clotheslines, iron and ironing board.

The grounds:
A raised terrace and grassed area at the top of the sloping approach to the gîte, partially screened by trees, overlooks gardens and countryside and enjoys dawn to dusk sunshine.

There is also a barbecue and garden furniture for outdoor eating, and there are pleasant garden areas close by for your use

There are also bikes, games including croquet, badminton and table-tennis and a wide range of books, maps and information freely available.
Children are welcome at 'Les Pégouriés', and a certain amount of play equipment is available.

Nearby:
A10-minute drive down the hill from 'Les Pégouriés' takes you to Cajarc, a small town on the river Lot with a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere, offering a variety of local shops, restaurants and other facilities. It has a good municipal swimming pool ­ including a toddlers' pool ­ and a pretty waterfront for strolling, dining, or taking river boat trips.
You will find plenty to do and see here. 'Les Pégouriés' is an ideal base from which to explore the Lot and Célé valleys, where the rivers cut deep into the limestone, creating beautiful and dramatic scenery. Villages cling to the cliffs, and traditional farms still flourish, with their fields of tobacco, maize and sunflowers. The history and way of life of former generations are evident in all you see, from the cave paintings of Peche Merle, the nearby picturesque village of St Cirq-la-Popie, the chateaux and the ancient places of worship, to the simple hamlets and villages, the rolling cultivated land and the wild landscapes beyond
