Our house is large and monumental. Due to its size, sufficient distance can be taken in the house. If someone in the group needs more privacy, because they want or need to isolate themselves, the possibility is ideal.

The house has two living rooms, two bathrooms and two kitchens. It is the ideal holiday home for a large family, two smaller ones, or a group of friends. The swimming pool, terraces and garden are south facing. Large chestnut trees guarantee sufficient shade during the often hot summers. You enjoy the exclusive use of the entire site, as there are no other tenants.

We also do not use the house if we have rented it out. The house is partly 200 years old and charmingly furnished (carefully selected items). The house has stairs and is therefore not suitable for people who have difficulty walking. The beds are made when you arrive and towels are provided for you.

In the immediate vicinity are all facilities to guarantee you a pleasant stay. Within a radius of 6 to 10 km. you will find bakeries, butchers, supermarkets, pharmacy, enz.in several medieval villages with their weekly markets and flea markets. It couldn't be more French.

Location & area recommendations

Additional information

De rivier de Lot stroomt door de vallei. In het dal zijn fantastisch mooie dorpjes, die een bezoek meer dan waard zijn. We noemen Luzech, Albas, Douelle, Saint Vincent, Prayssac. Op diverse plekken kun je er kanoën, paardrijden, vissen, zwemmen. In huis is nader informatiemateriaal aanwezig

Bovila ligt in een rustige landelijke omgeving, waar het heerlijk toeven is. Wandelingen in de prachtige fauna en flora direct vanuit het huis. In de bermen, tuinen en weiden bloeien de orchideeën. De reetjes laten zich onderweg aan de bosrand graag zien. In de lucht cirkelen de buizerd, de wouwen en de valkjes, op zoek naar hun prooien. Buiten horen we o.a. de hop, de wielewaal, de Koekkoek en de specht. We genieten van de zang, de vlucht en de kleuren van o.a. de Vlaamse gaai, groenling, gele kwikstaart, roodstaartje, zwartkopje, putter, merel, zwaluw. S nachts in de zomer horen we de monotone roep van de dwergooruil, le petit duc, zoals hij hier genoemd wordt. het is het kleine broertje van ,le grand de oehoe, die op een paar kilometer van ons huis in Maastricht in de kalkwanden van de Sint Pietersberg huist.

Frankrijk is natuurlijk vooral bekend om zijn wijn. De wijngaarden van Cahors leveren “ le vin noir“, de donkere wijn gemaakt van 100 % malbec druiven. In dit oudste wijngebied van Frankrijk wordt deze wijn geperst in de honderden chateau’s en domeinen van de streek. U wordt overal verwezen om deze te proeven en desgewenst te kopen. Subliem is overigens ook de witte wijn en de rosé. in ons huis liggen diverse folders van wijnhuizen die wij aanbevelen, zoals Chateau du Cedre, Chateau Eugenie, Chateau de Gaudou, Chateau de Chambert, Chateau Pineraie, Chateau de Grezelle en overigens is de wijn van Chateau Mercuès ook niet te versmaden. Volg uw smaak en ga zeker een dag op ontdekking. Het is de moeite waard.

The historic city of Cahors is 20 km away from Bovila. It is a must to take the time to stroll through the medieval narrow streets and imagine yourself in other times. Free information and a city map with tips and walking routes are available at the tourist office on Boulevard de Gambetta. We recommend the walk along the hidden gardens. On Wednesdays and Fridays there is a traditional weekly market at the (otherwise beautiful) cathedral and every two weeks there is a flea market. A visit to the city is even more festive if you have a delicious lunch in one of the excellent restaurants in Cahors. We will name a few: la Balandre at Hotel Terminus, le Vieux Cahors, restaurant le Marché, les Petits Producteurs, Asian at la Balinaise, or a vegetarian lunch at restaurant Marie Colline.
