Home description

Nestling amongst two acres of woodland and open countryside and ideally situated between the Lot Valley and Aveyron Gorges, Les Fontaines is the perfect place to relax and unwind. The 3 double bedrooms have recently been refurbished to the highest of standards to cater for those seeking luxury and comfort. Guests have use of the superb 12 x 6m swimming pool (which is bordered by mature oak and ash trees which offer welcome dappled shade during the hotter summer months).

Within a very short distance you will discover many of France's most beautiful medieval villages (Najac, Belcastel, St. Cirq Lapopie and Cordes to name just a few). Kayaking/Canoeing/Rafting and river cruises down the Lot Valley are just a few of the many outdoor activities readily available. There's an abundance of wildlife/birdlife on the doorstep and breathtaking scenery and dramatic landscapes in every direction. In other words, something to please everyone!

The Midi-Pyrenees / Aveyron region

We are blessed with bright blue skies for most of the year and experience long hot summers. Spring and autumn are both usually mild, thus ensuring a very pleasurable stay whichever time of year you decide to come and visit us.


Villefranche de Rouergue / Martiel area

Our local village of Martiel is just 10 mins. walk away. There is a restaurant, an "alimentation" (corner shop) , where you can purchase your essentials, a Boulangerie, Post Office, hairdressers, church and a tennis court.

The bastide town of Villefranche is only 10 mins. drive away and there you will find large supermarkets, an abundance of excellent restaurants and bars, shops, doctors, dentists, hospital etc., etc.

Throughout the summer there are fetes in every local village and the local markets (weekly or twice weekly) are well worth a visit (Villefranche is a particularly good one). There are excellent restaurants within a few kilometers offering superb local cuisine from as little as 15 Euros for a 3 course evening menu and under 10 Euros for a lunchtime menu, which usually includes wine.


How to get there

We are very easy to find from either Rodez airport (45 mins.) or Toulouse (1.5 hours).

Guestbook

"We had a wonderful vacation in this beautifully restored stone manor house. Our room was large and very comfortable. The breakfast on the old dining room table was delicious. Andrea and Steve are really friendly and chatted with us in the evening in front of their cosy fireplace. They were particularly helpful with directions for visiting the nearby “Most Beautiful Villages in France” of stone hill towns, caves, markets, and great places to eat. The walks on country lanes are peaceful and the countryside is just beautiful. We would give Les Fontaines a 10 super plus! " Evelyn & Del, Michigan, USA


"Just this short note to thank you for our wonderful week at Les Fontaines Cottage. The kitchen was wonderfully well equipped, the living room very comfortable and the bedroom with windows onto the courtyard was a very romantic place. Your location is great; a short drive in any direction took us to some great hilltop towns and wonderful dining. Please feel free to post this. Others should know what a treasure your place is. We loved every minute with you."
Susanne and Peter Hockin. London, Ontario, Canada

"Thank you for providing a gorgeous home from home for us last summer. We loved the pool, the beautifully restored cottage and house, and especially the rustic unspoilt villages and more. Our holiday experience was wonderful - 10/10. Thank you."
Thana, Danni, Ben, Josh & Natasha. Kent, England
