De Duiventoren

Cottage for up to 4


These are the highlights

  • In the past, owning a dovecote was a sign of prosperity.

  • As the house is easy to heat, it is available to rent even out of season.

  • The grounds also feature the large Pouxoy family home, owned by the same owners, which can accommodate up to nine people.


De Duiventoren is located in a walled area and offers cozy accommodation for four guests. The house is also suitable for renting out of season.

This vacation home has two bedrooms, a bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen, with a dining area and a spacious lounge.

On the property there’s also the large Pouxoy familiy home which offers accommodation for up to thirteen people. Both houses are situated and adapted in such a way that the privacy for residents is optimal. The pool located on the property is set well away from both houses and is used by the residents of both houses. The table tennis table is set up in an open barn and also for communal use.

Surroundings

De Duiventoren is located in the Quercy Blanc, in a hamlet 20 kms southeast of the wine town of Cahors. The tranquil setting is slightly hilly and is perfect for hiking, cycling and horseback riding. There is also a 9-hole golf course a short 30 kms away. Among other things, the area is famous for the discovery of truffles. Cities such as Toulouse, Albi, Cordes and Montauban are nearby.

History

Pouxoy dates back to circa 1860. It is an authentic traditional farmhouse, typical of the Quercy region. The complex consists of the main house, several barns and stables, and a second house: the "duiventoren".

Willem en Addy Hollander

Even before Addy and Willem Hollander started their B&B in Drenthe (Het Blauwe Schaop), they bought this complex comprising several buildings in their beloved Lot region. Apparently, that left them wanting more. Because a little further on, they acquired an old castle.
