Domaine Fabriges
Domaine Fabriges is a beautiful château in the Lot region of southern France, set within 75 acres of grounds with landscaped gardens, a children’s play area and vast forest. Admire the avenue of century-old plane trees, swim in the heated pool made from Quercy stone, play on the tennis court then relax by the poolside bar or beneath the leafy pagoda – ideal for a group of friends or extended family, there is always something to do at this welcoming high-end abode.
Bookings are available through Oliver’s Travels, more information and bookings available here
Across the old Quercy domaine you will find several reception rooms alongside twelve en suite bedrooms in the main house and adjacent Grange. We adore the original fireplace in the cosy lounge, the Steinway grand piano in the hallway as well as the elegant billiard table and air-conditioned TV lounge. The en suite bedrooms have been beautifully styled with attractive furnishings and graceful décor, some with canopied beds and rolltop baths, and there are glorious garden or countryside views from every room. The extensive wine cellar is also available to guests so they can purchase wines if they wish.
Choose to enjoy breakfast on the terrace overlooking the hills then head over to the large table by the pizza oven and barbecue for long shady lunches close to the chef’s kitchen. A Sonos music system means you can enjoy your favourite tunes on the terrace and by the swimming pool or embrace the surrounding tranquility as you stroll through the vast grounds and woodland, watching children play. Guests young and old will also adore the championship size table football and table tennis.
Housekeeping six days per week is included in the price and if there are more than 10 guests staying then the mandatory chef service has to be booked as well – how wonderful to be able to cooked for every day (please see the “Extras” tab and enquire for additional pricing for this). For less than 10 guests, daily breakfasts can still be arranged for a supplement as well as other optional extras.
If you can tear yourself away from the wonderful surroundings, pop into the local village for a morning coffee and explore other medieval gems such as Castelnau-Montratier and the market town of Montcuq. As well as atmospheric markets showcasing a wealth of delicious produce, look out for brocantes and vide-greniers in nearby villages and towns.
Visit the Malbec-producing vineyards of Cahors, a handsome town known for its fantastic shops, restaurants, hidden gardens and the 14th century Pont Valentre. Soak up the artistic ambience of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, visit the impressive monastery in Moissac and potter further afield to the likes of Pujols and Monflanquin, classified as two of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’ in this attractive region of southern France.
