Gîtes de France® - La Maison du Batelier

Welcome to La Maison du Batelier, a charming retreat just a stone’s throw from the famous Gouffre de Padirac, which can accommodate up to 12 people. This renovated former family home tells a story: that of an ancestor who was a boatman and guided visitors into the depths of the Gouffre de Padirac. Each bedroom features its own private bathroom, ensuring privacy and comfort. The spacious and bright living room is perfect for convivial meals and evenings spent together. Outside, a large, fenced-in yard is the perfect spot for kids’ laughter and games around the swing set and private Piscine (open June through September). Across the way, La Grange aux Truffes delights food lovers with artisanal ice cream and chocolates. From the holiday cottage, you can walk to Padirac, and don’t forget to explore Rocamadour, Autoire, Carennac, or Saint-Cirq-Lapopie—all among the most beautiful villages in France! Nature lovers will enjoy the Tauriac lake and the banks of the Dordogne River for fishing or canoeing. Here, everything you need is provided for a carefree, all-inclusive stay dedicated to fun and relaxation.
