This 3 bedroom house can easily accommodate up to 6 people. Recoules is situated in the northwestern corner of the Aveyron, a scenic and beautiful area with wonderful countryside views. 

Aveyron is 10 of only 146 villages in the country officially classified as the "Most Beautiful Villages in France."

Each bedroom in the property is equipped with an en-suite bathroom. 2 bedrooms have double beds & the 3rd has 2x single bed. There are also 3 pull up beds & a cot.

 . The kitchen is fully fitted with a cooker, sink, dishwasher as well as appropriate dishes, glases etc. The dining area seats 8. The house also has a utility room which houses a washing machine and dryer. The living room is tastefully furnished with sofas, chairs and a satellite TV with all free view multi-language channels , including BBC, ITV ect..along with a DVD player and radio.

The Aveyron is situated on the southern edge of the Massif Central, and is made up of a succession of terraced plateaus. It is therefore quite a diverse area in its landscape, with mountains, gorges, and rolling hills between. Rivers, lakes, and a National Park help to round out the landscape.

The climate varies greatly with the changing of the seasons. Though winter has a continental feel, temperatures are influenced by the Atlantic in spring and autumn, and the Mediterranean in the summer. Because of these influences, the Aveyron enjoys many more hours of sunshine per year than Paris , or even the more close-by Toulouse. At the same time, winter brings generous snowfall, to the delight of skiers.

At its' heart, the enchanting Hamlet of Recoules offers a tranquil holiday destination -- a chance to step back in time and live life at a gentler pace, to "get away from it all". Of course, there are also many activities available to enjoy, with horse riding and an 18-hole Golf course within easy reach (15 min). The area is perfect for walking, cycling, or bird watching, painting sessions, sight-seeing, and many other recreational opportunities for both individuals and families.
