Our 'Quercy Blanc' manoir, dating back to 1649 and listed with the French Ministry of Culture as cultural heritage and one of the oldest properties in the region, is over 5 hectares in size and consists of the main house, a former grange {shed} which has been completely converted into a luxury holiday home in 2016. It is beautifully located in the Tarn and Garonne countryside with 360-degree views of the hills and orchards surrounding the picturesque village of Valeilles and equipped with all amenities. The cottage offers two bedrooms (1 x double box-spring bed and 2 x single box-spring bed which can be made up as a double bed) and a cloakroom/changing room.
There is a spacious bathroom with shower and two washbasins. A spacious hall and a separate toilet. The kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, washing machine, four-burner ceramic hob, combi oven, extractor fan and a large fridge with freezer compartment. Further kitchen appliances include a Nespresso machine, contact grill, blender, kitchen scales, etc. so you can indulge in culinary delights.
The house was completely redecorated in 2016, in keeping with the Tarn and Garonne atmosphere. Folding doors from the living room lead out onto the spacious cosy terrace, partly covered, where you can enjoy a glass of wine or a delicious meal at the large outdoor dining table with six chairs during the warm summer evenings.
There is TV with google chromecast so you can watch TV with your TV app, Netflix, etc.

BOUNAR Ahmed from VILLEURBANNE,
Nous avons passé un séjour magnifique, dans un cadre superbe et un environnement calme et apaisant. Louise et Sem ont été d'une gentillesse et d'une attention remarquables. Toujours aux petits soins, souriants. Vacances inoubliables. Nous reviendrons avec enthousiasme.
Etablissement que nous recommandons vivement et sans modération.
Ahmed et ChahraJorma en Pieter from Nijmegen,
Zoals zovelen voor ons hebben ook wij een fantastische week bij Louise en Sem gehad. Wij verbleven in 'La cave', de 2-persoons gîte. Deze kleinste van de drie accommodaties is gelegen, zoals de naam al aangeeft, is de voormalige kelder van het hoofdhuis. De gîte was schoon en netjes en voorzien van echt alle noodzakelijke zaken. Zelf specerijen, olijfolie, theedoeken en schoonmaak artikelen waren present.
Als je dat wilt kan je er prima zelf koken want naast een ruime oven heb je de beschikking over voldoende potten en pannen en een grote inductiekookplaat. In de directe omgeving vind je voldoende dorpjes en stadjes met bezienswaardigheden en restaurantjes.Louise en Sem zijn fantastische mensen. Naast de nodige humor zijn ze erg hulpvaardige om het jou naar je zin te maken. Klein voorbeeld hiervan is dat je 24/7 gebruik kunt maken van het mooie zwembad met uitzicht over het landschap. Een absolute aanrader zijn de table d'hôtes creaties van Sem. Tijdens ons bezoek was het twee keer in de week mogelijk om aan te schuiven aan de lange tafel waarbij rekening wordt gehouden met ieders wensen en/of allergieën. Heerlijk eten en drinken in een ongedwongen sfeer. In één woord "Fantastisch'!
@Louise en Sem: Bedankt voor jullie gastvrijheid en oprechte warmte die wij hebben mogen ervaren. Tot ziens!
Carla Michiels from Antwerpen,
Bij Le Vieux Manoir leef je echt als god in Frankrijk wat volledig de verdienste is van Louise en Sem. De hartelijke ontvangst, de mooie gites op een schitterend verzorgd domein, de kookkunsten van Sem en de tips ze delen voor leuke uitstapjes kortom alles is hier aanwezig om een geweldige vakantie te hebben. Nogmaals dank Louise en Sem voor de warme en hartelijke mensen die jullie zijn. Wij zijn FAN.
Restaurants, food & wine
A stay on our estate is also the opportunity to taste the delicious local products such as; the Chasselas grape from Moissac, Cassoulet, Foie Gras and all other specialties based on duck.
We are also surrounded by the three wine regions: Cahors, Bergerac and Bordeaux. It is possible to visit the wineries in these regions.
You can also obtain a simple vin du table or one of the above mentioned wine regions at the many wine chateau's.
Every week we organise a wine excursion to Chateau Famaey near the beautiful village of Puy L'Eveque, during which you will be introduced to the world of French wines in both Dutch and French!
We, Sem and Louise, like to share with you our culinary hobby that got out of hand, with which we spoil the present guests with the local regional products.
The meals are composed in consultation with the guests and will vary between 15 and 25 € p.p. Matching wine arrangement from 7,50 € p.p.
An adapted meal can be prepared for children.
Opposite the house is a herb greenhouse which you can always use and fresh fruit can be picked in the orchard!
