The Grange at La Margoy - Extremely comfortable newly converted barn
Farmhouse with 3 Bedrooms, Sleeps 6, Garden, Swimming Pool
Delightful converted barn situated on a quiet hillside in the "Vallee du Lot", Aveyron, South Western France, with far reaching uninterupted views of the surrounding landscape.
Originally an old farm dating from 17th century with new additions added in 1857. It has been lovingly restored using only local skilled artisans and now provides high quality holiday accommodation in a unique and picturesque setting.
The Grange at La Margoy provides comfortable accommodation for 6 people. It has 3 large bedrooms. The master bedroom has ensuite facilities and a balcony giving uninterupted views for miles. There are 2 other bedrooms, 1 double and 1 with 2 single beds, plus there is a large family bathroom with bath and shower attachment.
Downstairs there is a modern kitchen leading to a large comfortable sitting/dining room with a balcony giving marvellous views down the valley. The kitchen is fully equipped as you would expect with gas hob,electric oven plus dishwasher and fridge freezer. There is also a washing machine in the bouanderie. The house is centrally heated and has a woodburning stove for the cooler nights.
Outside there are 2 terraces. 1 outside the front door facing down the valley and the other just outside the kitchen in the courtyard that divides the property from the owners home. From the grange it is only a few steps down to the swimming pool and decking/sunbathing area.
The property is situated approximately 5 miles from the towns of Entraygues(to the south) and Montsalvy(to the north). Both towns are easy to get to and have banks, butchers, bakers and small convenience stores for everyday purchases as well as a plentyful supply of cafes and restaurants. Each town has its own market. Please note no discos-if you want rock and roll nightlife you are in the wrong place. If however you want to relax in the tranquility of this unspoilt part of France this is the place.

Local activities in and around Entraygues Sur Truyere, Midi-Pyrenees
Area provides spectacular scenery and enjoys its own climate which is almost mediterranean in nature. There is an abundance of forest in the "vallee" which provides home to a great variety of bird and wildlife including deer, wild boar, red squirrels, and pine martins. Because of its situation there are excellent walks and cycle rides on marked routes fromthe front door of the grange, if you feel so inclined.
Alternatively you can sit by the pool and watch the red and black kites and buzzards float on the thermals over the valley. If you are lucky you will get a glimpse of our local eagle on his hunting expeditions. Plenty of outdoor activities are available locally too. One of the most popular is taking a canoe or kayak down the Lot river for 10kms or more. The Aveyron has much to offer from the historic, castles such as Najac, to the modern, the new "Viaduc du Millau" spanning the gorge du Tarn.
Ryanair flights to Rodez from Stansted and Dublin. BA and Easyjet to Toulouse scheduled flights from gatwick and Bristol. By car we are 600 miles from calais by Autoroute. Cost is 42 euros.
