Fully Modernized French Country House!!
Gagnac-sur-Cère
Dordogne - France

ACCOMMODATIONS
House  -  2  Bedroom -  1.5  Bath     (Sleeps   4  Comfortably)


Self-catering restored farmhouse in the Dordogne region, southwest France. Historical sites: Monpazier, Sarlat, Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne, Bretenoux, Rocamadour, Castelnau, Cahors, Figeac. Recent improvements: complete electrical update, improved bathroom facilities, and restoration of an historic bread oven on the premises. Eclectic rural community includes artists, farmers and professionals from America, England, Australia and France.





The summers are brilliant and warm, usually around 75°-85° F. (25°-30° C.), with cool nights. Winters are mild, typically around 40°-50° F. (5°-10° C.) by day and around freezing at night, with the occasional light snowfall that melts by mid-day. The silence in spring is broken only by cuckoos' calls, and in the fall by dropping walnuts and chestnuts. The view of the Leonid meteor shower on November 17, 1998 was sensational. Day trips can include the Dordogne, Lot, Célé and Tarn river valleys, historical, cultural and religious sites like world-renowned Rocamadour, natural wonders like the Gouffre de Padirac (a huge cave you visit in a boat), or even a visit to the Mediterranean at Narbonne or the Atlantic at Bordeaux. Regional museums abound and include the Musée Champollion of Egyptian treasures in Figeac, the Musée de la Déportation in Brive-la-Gaillarde, the Musée de l'Homme for prehistoric man in Les Éyzies; and the Musée Ingres in Montauban houses his stunning portrait of Madame Gonce that's worth the trip in itself.
