The undulating countryside north of the River Lot is dotted with chestnut woods and stone villages. In a tiny hamlet, close to the border with the Dordogne (3km), sits La Maison Fleurie, a picturesque stone cottage, adorned with pots of colourful flowers.

External stone steps lead up from the courtyard to the first-floor terrace, which opens into the spacious, open-plan living area.

The original inglenook fireplace, set against open-faced walls, defines the sitting area, while the kitchen and dining table sit neatly at the other end. The two bedrooms are located on the second floor, tucked in the eaves of the roof, where substantial wooden cross beams add character and charm.

Beyond the courtyard, effectively divided by a stone barn that has been recently transformed into a summer kitchen, lies the pool, nestled within a well-established garden. Edged by rows of flowers and with stunning views over the surrounding countryside, this secluded spot offers complete privacy.

A typical 'ferme auberge' (country restaurant) is within walking distance (800m) of La Maison Fleurie. Essential amenities, including a restaurant, can be found in Frayssinet-le-Gelat (4km), along with a lake offering fishing, tennis courts, and a café by the water.

To the north lies the bastide town of Villefranche-du-Perigord (7km), while the well-preserved chateaux of Bonaguil, Biron, Beynac, and Castelnaud are all well worth a visit.

Private heated* swimming pool (8m x 4m) with Roman steps.
