La Maison du Garde

Nestling in the heart of the charming village of Padirac, in the Lot department, this typical local house seems to have come straight out of a tableau vivant. This Holiday cottage was once the guard's house at Château de Padirac. It offers a direct view of the château's façade and entrance, which gives it its name. With its weathered stone facade, traditional bolet sheltered by an ancient tiled roof, and exposed beams that tell the story of the centuries, this Holiday cottage embodies the authentic soul of Quercy. The charm begins as soon as you enter: the tastefully decorated living room invites you to relax. The garden, a small haven of greenery, welcomes you for breakfasts or aperitifs in the golden light of dusk. Just a few steps away, a small village café adds to the convivial atmosphere: perfect for a morning coffee or a drink on the terrace after a day's exploring. And what an exploration it was! The famous Gouffre de Padirac is just a stone's throw away. Here, you can plunge into the bowels of the earth in the morning, and return to the comforting warmth of your stone cocoon in the evening. This Holiday cottage is more than just a place to stay: it's an enchanted interlude in the heart of the Lot, where time stands still.
