Property Description
Three beautiful honey stoned cottages sleeping 2,4 and 5-6
adults set in 5 acres of sloping grounds looking over a deeply
wooded valley and just a walk away from the very pretty village of
Thedirac which has a good local boulangerie. A short drive away is
the village of Catus which has a lovely lake, bars, restaurants and
two weekly markets. Miles of countryside can be accessed directly
from the properties and we are lucky to be located in such the rural
and peaceful 'Bouriane'.

Local area
Our local village of Thedirac has a boulangerie and a lovely
church to visit plus Tennis Court for the active amongst you. Catus
has a lake, bars, restaurants and two weekly markets (one of which
is a local producers market). Further afield you can visit all the
beautiful chateaux of the Dordogne, St Cirq Lapopie in the Lot
Valley plus Rocamadour, Valley of the Cele, and the Medieval towns
of Sarlat, Cahors, with it's vinyards which extend for miles and
Gourdon. Cycling is very popular in the area (we had the Tour de
France go past the end of our lane in 2007)and can be quite
challenging. We have some lovely places to walk to direct from the
property, you can even walk to the lake at Catus if you're up for
it! Both rivers have many canoeing routes and river trips or boats
for hire.
