Description of holiday cottage in Jayac, Aquitaine
Les Crouquets means "The Little Valleys"and it is here, tucked away in the Perigord Noir, one of the most beautiful regions of France, that you will find our 6 charming holiday cottages which date back to 1882.
They are perfectly situated in a secluded valley in the heart of the Dordogne countryside, surrounded by walnut groves and golden corn fields in a wonderfully tranquil setting.
The properties are grouped together in a delightful hamlet, each with their own private terrace, two overlooking the pitch & putt course, and most having views over the green oak covered hills.
The grounds are scattered with fruit & walnut trees and you are more than welcome to help yourself the season's produce.
L'Atelier was once the horses stable and the entrance was the "lavoir" or the washing rooms. The deep, stone sinks are no longer there but the character of this cottage still remains.
This cottage benefits from a small covered patio off the kitchen as well as a terrace with garden furniture, parasol & BBQ leading from the French windows in the dining room.
This is a very roomy cottage for two people(a sofa bed on the upstairs landing can also accommodate 2 children) and the woodburner in the lounge makes this a perfect choice for early Spring & Autumn breaks.
The double bedroom and bathroom are attic rooms with coombed ceilings.
On reaching the top of the stairs the edge of the upstairs hall is slightly limited in headroom but otherwise there is plenty of space to move around.
