Home description
La Fargeotte is set in the lush green countryside of the Perigord Noir. It is perfectly situated to visit the many tourist attractions in the region.
This self-catering gite is a large apartment just a short walk away from the village of Mauzens et Miremont. It has a large spacious open-plan lounge/diner which is tastefully decorated and retains the original charms of exposed stonework to one wall and beamed ceilings. There are two large double bedrooms and a large twin room. If required, there is a cot and also an extra single bed to accommodate an extra person.
The garden is at the rear of the property and is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine while listening to the gentle trickling of the River Manaurie as it meanders its way to the River Vezere.
Owners Jill and Paul live discreetly on-site but are on hand to welcome you and help with any enquiries you may have e.g. tourist information, restaurant bookings etc.
