La Vernhe
In the north of the Aveyron department, the gîte is located at an altitude of 650 m in Le Nayrac, a village of some 600 inhabitants, closely linked to the history of Aubrac. Our converted farmhouse is set amidst meadows and on the edge of a forest.
We'd like to welcome you to our first self-contained gîte, in a wing of the farmhouse we've converted and live in, located in the magnificent Aubrac Regional Nature Park, "the hidden pearl of France".
From the gîte's private terrace, you enter the fully-equipped living room/kitchen. A corner sofa where you can relax and a bar table with comfortable stools.
The bedroom is adjacent to the living room and can be closed with Japanese sliding curtains. The bedroom has a 160 x 200 cm double bed and an antique wardrobe.
Behind a glass wall, we've created a bathroom with shower, washbasin and toilet.
In winter, the chalet is underfloor heated.
The swimming pool on our property is a saltwater pool, and therefore more gentle on the eyes and skin than a traditional chlorinated pool. It is open from March/April to October/November.
There's a wide choice of restaurants. During the summer months, every village or town has a night market offering only local produce. And what would France be without its cheeses? There's plenty to choose from in the region. Visit the Laguiole cheese factory or the caves where Roquefort cheese slowly matures, or go to Rocamadour to sample a delicious goat's cheese.
For sporting activities, this is the place to be. There are excellent, well-marked hiking trails and lakes nearby. You can also go cycling or mountain biking, golfing, canoeing and, in winter, skiing and cross-country skiing at Laguiole or Le Lioran and Le Puy Mary in the Cantal.
