XVIIIC Manoir Les Gaillardoux, with its pigeonnier and pillared coach house, is a rare and fine example of a Maison Bourgeoise in the Causses du Quercy Blanc area. High ceilings, tall windows, lovely antique tiled floors, an elegant stone staircase, beams and tall fireplaces all combine to give style and elegance to the Manoir, yet preserve a comfortable human dimension.

The Manoir sits in a 1.25 hectare park and orchard, surrounded by undulating countryside, on the top of a hill with wide open views. The terrace is in a prime unspoilt position from which to observe stars in the night sky. The heated swimming pool, partly walled and south facing, adds a luxurious touch.

The present owners have also run the property as a high quality holiday rental enterprise; the highly rated Manoir is let each summer to international clients (with four years of glowing testimonials). The owners now wish to retire and downsize, possibly in the same area, which they love.

Internally, Manoir Les Gaillardoux benefits from sensitive refurbishment, including a new roof, and modern amenities, yet preserves the main features and charm of this lovely house. The surface area is approximately 490 sq metres plus outbuildings, including a large stone barn, offering further development potential.
