When this dovecote was built, Napoleon Bonaparte was in power and the right to own a dovecote was extended to farmers. The poor farmland could use the help of the fertiliser provided by the pigeons and they themselves appeared on the menu of the farmers. Dovecotes are still found in different heights and forms in this region but many of them have fallen in decay.

Our Pigeonnier is the most romantic gîte and a perfect retreat from the hectic world that we are dealing with now. We have restored this building with lots of love and attention to detail. In contrast to many other towers, ours has three floors, a cozy living room on top with satellite TV and access to the major European channels.

The sofa ensures that you can relax on those rare rainy days or follow the news back home. If necessary the sofa can convert into a bed. We can provide a foldable bed for a small child so a couple with a child can stay there too. Be sure to take a peak out of the window and admire the view of the valley.

The middle floor houses a double bed and separate bathroom with a rain shower. The breakfast and kitchen area are situated on the ground floor. You can easily access the terrace to facilitate an outdoor breakfast. The terrace itself offers privacy due to its position within the landscape.
