About this property

A stunning French farmhouse retreat in the heart of Averyon.

  • La Peyriere is one of the most beautiful examples of a French farmhouse you could possibly find, located right in the heart of Aveyron, South-West France. Situated in the hills near the town of La Fouillade, and just 30 minutes from France's favourite village 2014 and 2015, Cordes sur Ciel and St Antonin Noble Val. It provides the perfect escape from everyday life, yet it's within 60 minutes drive of 8 'Beaux Villages de France'.

    A very typical example of local architecture with a beautiful 'fish scale' slate tile roof. Renovated to a very high standard and impeccably maintained ever since. The sunset over the pool and kitchen is to die for!

    The property benefits from a beautiful outdoor area, with terrace overlooking the heated swimming pool and BBQ (the pool is open May - October) and wrapped around with a 4 acre field to provide you with as much privacy as you could wish for.

    Nestled in the hills 5 minutes from Lunac, a village with Boulangarie, and 10 minutes from La Fouillade, which has a major supermarket. We're incredibly lucky to be just 15 minutes away from the enchanting 'Beaux' village of Najac.

    Slightly further afield we are 30 minutes drive away form 3 stunning towns... Saint Antonin Noble Val, with a stunning Sunday market and voted the most beautiful town in France in 2015. Then to the South East, Cordes sur Ciel, a hilltop town with lovely restaurants and shops, voted the most beautiful town in France a few year earlier!

    To the North is Villefranche de Rouergue, another stunning town with a cracking Thursday market. Please visit the website for more information on the house and what to do nearby.

A wonderful place for a family get together. Clearly a well-loved second home with everything that one would need. Beautiful heated pool, with shallow stepped area, perfect for small children; and a host of activities and toys to suit all ages. Set in idyllic tranquil countryside, within reach of many interesting places - historic villages, markets, and outdoor activities.

Lovely long weekend away

We spent a lovely few days at La Peyriere, very relaxing and we manage to combine some lovely evenings by the fire with some long walks and trips to some amazing markets nearby. A great place to come if you want to have some time away from the day to day.

2 week holiday in Aveyron

Le Peyriere is wonderful property in a beautiful part of France. It is in a secluded location but near enough to local shops and there are loads of things to do and see within a short drive.The house had everything we needed and is spacious. There is a well-maintained pool and a games room. Kayaking on the Aveyron was a highlight but there are also amazing walks and beautiful villages all around. Chis the owner was very responsive and nothing was too much trouble. Property manager Fred was also very helpful and friendly. All in all, a great holiday and we would thoroughly recommend and would happily return.

Superbe maison en Aveyron

Très belle maison au calme tout en étant proche des beaux villages d'Aveyron. La maison est très bien équipée et parfaite pour un séjour en famille ou amis (piscine, billard, table de ping pong, deux grands salons....). La communication avec Chris est très simple et il répond toujours rapidement et avec attention aux questions que l'on peut se poser. Bref, location à recommander !!!

Lovely French Farmhouse

We very much enjoyed staying at La Peyriere as we explored the many beaux villages in the surrounding area. Chris provided all the needed information on website and with guide and brochures provided at the house. Large well equipped farmhouse kitchen. We only used for making coffee and eating pastries each morning because we were on the road much of the time. We did love having the large kitchen table for spreading out maps and brochures as we planned the next day itinerary. Great shower on lower level and bathtub on upper floor. Wi-Fi was spotty but we were told that in advance given rural location. Amazing patisserie in La Fouillade and a great little pizza place across the street.

We had a wonderful time at La Peyriere, what a find! We spent many relaxing days by the pool and also enjoyed the produce in local markets. There was plenty to do nearby, a much needed (refreshing) visit to the local river, beaux village including Najac and St Cirq Lapopie and don't miss the market at St Antonin!

Perfect Autumn escape!

This was return trip to La Peyriere and we had a wonderful time. It was a lovely time to come out of peak season for walks and touring the local 'beaux villages', the colour of the leaves and the weather made for perfect walking and lovely evenings by the wood burning stove. The markets of Villefranche and St Antonin were real highlights, great produce, especially the cepes! On our last day we also got to see the famous chestnut festival in Laguepie, what a wonderful day, great weather and amazing food, drink and atmosphere. The house itself is very authentic Aveyron, lovely open plan living area by the fire and a separate TV room for the kids, even the the heated pool was open which was a lovely way to start the day! A big thank you to the hosts who were very kind and provided plenty of tips of where to go and where to source the best food and wine.

A fantastic stay in an idyllic part of France

From the pre-arrangements to the checkin process with Pierre (who is such a great host) we were made to feel so welcome. The house is so beautiful, incredibly traditional but with tasteful additions all over the house. The pool is great, cleaned everyday and everything you need is there so it made our stay incredibly relaxing. There are so many nice places to visit within an hour of the property, but if you also want to stay at the house, eat food from the local markets, relax by the pool and bbq at night that’s equally as good. We really cannot recommend the property and hosts and we definitely intend to go back.
