The house

  • Quiet, rural area with some traffic

We welcome you to our historic farmhouse at the end of a dead-end road, where we live a wonderfully simple and peaceful life together with our cats, goats and chickens.

At Les Cavaleries, you will experience the unique combination of the homeliness of a Chambres d'Hôtes with the privacy of a gîte.

Les Cavaleries is tucked away in the hills of the Dordogne valley, near the picturesque village of Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne, one of the most beautiful villages in Corrèze. The 8 other villages listed as the most beautiful in France are in the immediate vicinity. As are more than 50 marked hiking trails.
We never get bored in our region, thanks to the river, the beautiful villages, the country roads, the photogenic cows, the markets, the restaurants, nature, castles and caves. There are 3 major attractions nearby: the spectacularly located pilgrimage site of Rocamadour, the most beautiful cave in France at Padirac and Collonges-la-Rouge, the first village ever on the list of most beautiful villages!

But we never get bored in our own garden either. The golden oriole, the green woodpecker, butterflies, but also buzzards and kites fly overhead. Just like the flying deer, which is rare in the Netherlands. But foxes, badgers and deer have also been spotted in our own garden. In the evening, the stars are countless and if we are lucky, we hear the owl call!

The flat: The spacious flat is on the first and second floor of our natural stone farmhouse. An old staircase leads you to your private semi-covered terrace, right next to the ancient bread oven, where the inhabitants of the hamlet used to come to bake their bread. This terrace is wonderfully sunny, where you can enjoy the sunrise every morning and an impressive starry sky in the evening. You enter your flat in a hallway, where there is an extra toilet. On this floor is the cosy living room, with a well-equipped kitchen, a wood-burning stove and many authentic elements, such as alcoves, sinks and old beams. On the second floor is a spacious and bright double bedroom with stunning views and the bathroom with shower and toilet.
The apartment does not have its own washing machine, but you can always ask us to do some laundry.

At the back of the house is our large garden overlooking the hills opposite. In the distance, you can see a few hamlets and even 2 castles. There are both sunny and shady seats in garden and also a sunny gazebo, built from old window frames and doors.

We always love it when our guests enjoy the garden with a book, a coffee, breakfast or wine and sometimes even spot new animals.

Les Cavaleries is a place to unwind, to enjoy nature, starry skies, French cuisine, wines and cheeses, but also the beautiful surroundings.

See you soon!

In the hills between the picturesque Beaulieu sur Dordogne and the village Nonards. From the house you walk straight into the woods. The environment is very beautiful with many medieval villages in the immediate vicinity, within walking and cycling distance. The famous tourist destinations are accessible by car. In the immediate vicinity you will find for example 6 villages on the list of most beautiful villages of France. There are several places of pilgrimage within driving distance such as the most beautifully situated Rocamadour. Also the amazing caves of Padirac are 35 minutes away.
We have been living in this region for a while now and we keep discovering new things. We have come to the conclusion that we find this area, Vallee de Dordogne in the south of the Correze and north of the Lot, the most beautiful area of France. Most of our visitors very much agree.

    Een heerlijke week gehad in Les Cavaleries. Een prachtig huis met een tuin waar je op meerdere plekjes kunt zitten, zowel in de zon als in de schaduw. ‘s Ochtends ontbijten op het balkon met een prachtig uitzicht en ‘s avonds blijft het er lekker lang warm en kun je er genieten van geluiden van vogels en de sterrenhemel. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien. John en Maja zijn zeer gastvrij en kunnen je allerlei tips over de omgeving geven. Er is van alles te zien en te beleven in de omgeving: wandelen, fietsen, kanoën, leuke plaatsje bezoeken en heerlijk eten en drinken. En dan terug thuis heerlijk relaxen in het mooie huis of in de tuin.

Restaurants, food & wine

The area has many nice restaurants. The local wineries are also worth a visit. There are several farms open to visitors.

Activities

The surroundings are so beautiful that it doesn't matter whether you explore them on foot, by bike or by car or motorbike. Because of its proximity to the Dordogne and several lakes, numerous water sports are also possible, such as canoeing down the river. There are no fewer than 9 villages in the immediate vicinity that are on the list of most beautiful villages in France, including the very first village that started it all: Collonges-la-Rouge. But also the beautifully located pilgrimage site Rocamadour can be reached in 40 minutes by car. And even if you are not a lover of caves, Gouffre de Padirac has never disappointed anyone.
The nearby picturesque village of Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne is bustling in summer and has numerous restaurants, and cafes and a wine bar. In summer, it is almost a must on Monday evenings to go to the river, to the local market, to sample local produce with locals and tourists at long tables.

  • Near hiking trails
  • Near ATB trails
  • Fishing

Further remarks

The surroundings are very beautiful to explore by bicycle. The routes are quite tough. Riding flat is almost impossible. Whichever way you cycle, it is always beautiful. If you want to walk a part of the GR route or Compostella route, you can. If requested, we bring you to the starting point and pick you up later at your destination.
