2 Bedroom Cottage in Saint-Geniez-d'Olt, Saint Geniez D'olt Et D'aubrac

Welcome to our tranquil gite that is part of an old Octroi (French official building constructed in 1830). It is located right on the Lot river, on a pedestrian walk that leads to the centre of a lively and charming town called St. Geniez d'Olt. This beautiful French village is alive with shops, concerts, restaurants and festivals throughout the spring and summer months. So many activities to partake in, from horse-back riding and canoeing, to aerial circus arts and riverside walks...concerts and night markets and so much more, all within walking distance. Fall and winter it still remains a beautiful and tranquil repose with restaurants and leisurely forest walks, and it is only 20 minutes to the ski station in Brameloup. As well, St. Geniez has a new pedestrian walkway which links it to the nearby village of St. Eulalie d'Olt (1km), officially labelled ''One of the most Beautiful Villages in France''. Visiting St. Eulalie d'Olt is like stepping back in time - to seep in the beauty and history of an ancient rural village in France. Art is important here, and there are many workshops and artisans to visit.
Enter Gite L'Octroi at the side of the main building, into the private garden, where you hear the tinkling sound of the stream gently rushing through the rocks, alongside the walled garden of the gite. Here, the vine covered terrace with flower garden greets you. Sliding glass doors reveal an open living room and superbly fitted kitchen. A charming woodburning stove is in the living room for romantic inspirations or warming chilly nights. A flat screen TV with internet access, wifi, and smartTV are at your use for contemporary entertainment. A stairway leads up to the cosy mezzanine bedroom.
The master bedroom is down the hall, with a voluptuous antique French double bed. It has whimsical, yet very practical mosquito curtains surrounding the bed. A large bathroom with walk in shower, sink, antique commode and washing machine serves the gite. There is a separate toliet room. The charming furnishings, a mix of contempory and antiques reflect a typical French country style.
The lovely, terrace outside has a table for al fresco dining. A bbq is at the ready for enjoying lovely French foods and in particular, the French Aubrac beef, well known throughout France. This is Aubrac country.
Quiet nights in the garden, or lively evenings in town, Gite L'Octroi hopes to offer a traquil and enjoyable vacation for all who come to stay...a home away from home. .

Summary: Cottage was in a lovely location next to river with a sweet little garden. Hosts were very welcoming, providing lots of wood for the fire and even giving us fresh eggs from their hens. Also gave us good tips on things to do in the local area. Cottage was very clean and nicely presented. The second bedroom in the loft was quite small which made it a bit tight for two couples, but otherwise everything was great.

Summary: This property was perfect for our needs and very much as described on the website. The kitchen was well equipped, the lounge and bedroom comfortable and the outside garden space a lovely place to relax. The town is very pretty with lovely riverside walks and opportunities for fishing. There were plenty of cafes, small shops and an excellent supermarket nearby. Living next door, the host was very helpful. The area itself was great for walking, picnics, fishing and we found different places to go each day. Walking by the river and finding places for our dog to swim was a particular treat as was the quality of local restaurants and the friendliness of people we met.

Summary: The property is located in a beautiful village and backs onto a walkway along a river which can take you into the town. The property is furnished to a high standard and has everything you need. You do have to advise if you want linen and towels. It's great if you have a dog as there is a small enclosed garden. There are deck chairs for sitting outside. The village is beautiful and there are places to eat and drink which are walkable. There is also a vet in the village. Our host Sarah was great and flexible with check-in and checkout times. Highly recommend.

Summary: This is a sunny and charming bolt-hole in an undiscovered (certainly by UK holiday makers) and charming part of France. The River Lot runs at the end of the garden, and a little stream to one side. Highly recommended for those who like walking (at least 5 or 6 well-marked trails to be done from the front door, many more within a 10-20 minute drive). St Geniez has several restaurants and bars, 2 boulangeries, 2 butchers, an excellent Saturday market and smaller Wednesday market (high season) and an Intermarche if you need a supermarket. The property is on the side of the owners own house - but with an entirely separate entrance and garden with barbeque. The kitchen is really well equipped and the bed is a four poster with mosquito net - really useful on those hot nights. The owners have a very friendly cat - and chickens in the back garden. Whilst there are flights to the nearby town of Rodez, it is very possible to get the Eurostar to Paris, change to the TGV to Toulouse and pick up a hire car from there - the perfect way to travel!
