Apt T3 air-conditioned, on the 1st floor of a character residence in CAHORS
You wish to visit the LOT Terre des Merveilles; this nicely decorated, quiet, very bright, very well equipped apartment, located on the banks of the LOT river and practically in the city center will be your home port. You are located 7 minutes walk from the town hall (city center). On its large terrace you can admire boating, the VALENTRE bridge and its night lights, but you can also have barbecue evenings. You will not be disturbed by the noise of vehicles, trains or planes but perhaps by the tumult of water on the pavement or the slight purring of the micro power plant.
If you like walking, fishing, archaeological sites, old stones, cellars, underground caves, swimming, boating, sports and cultural activities, good small and large restaurants, all these activities will be within your reach . Closed parking and garage, easy to access at the foot of the secure residence. Free secure internet connection. Apartment well exposed, bright, well equipped. The integrated kitchen has a very large work surface treated antibacterial. A large air-conditioned living room opens directly onto the terrace. Both bedrooms have views of the Lot. The decoration has been neat. The bathroom is bright and pleasant. This apartment is located in CAHORS, one of the GREAT SITES OF OCCITANIA.

The VALENTRE BRIDGE and the SAINT ETIENNE cathedral are listed in the UNESCO directory, don't wait any longer to come and discover them.
Through its gastronomy, we can taste or discover the black truffle, foie gras, Cahors wine, little Rocamadour goat cheese, saffron, walnuts, Quercy lamb, pastis (cake) ...
The discovery of the region can be done by different means of travel: - walking (collection of very many marked trails at your service); - bike or mountain bike - Hot air ballooning, promenade boat, cruise, small train, horse-drawn carriage. - Shuttles, bus, personal vehicle ... - Trains

The property was comfortable, and well located. I think the property could do with redecorating and the bathroom definately needs modernising. We had a very nice holiday
Very well appointed and within easy reach of the town and other attractions e.g. Pont de Valentre. We hadn’t appreciated that our view was a little spoilt by being opposite the pumping station but we were still able to see Pont de Valentre. Nelly and Alan were very helpful and accommodated our early morning departure.
Great view of the famous bridge and convenient location at edge of town on the river, but accessible on foot to old heart of town.
Apartment has every convenience and piece of equipment you can think of. Very comfortable. Rather a tight turning with no landing on the one flight of stairs - care needing to be taken for older guests, but manageable. Huge, wrap around balcony gave great sense of space and being outdoors. This balcony ran on to the next door balcony - very convenient for us as we wanted three sleeping spaces and so rented the two bedroom apartment and the one bedroom apartment but used them as one accessing through the balcony. Very convenient arrangement for three friends wanting our own spaces..
A very good stay.
We agree with most of the nice things the other reviews say about this apartment. Well equipped, two bedrooms, etc. However, we think travelers would like to know about the most obvious negative of this apartment
Directly across the street, on the river, is a small water treatment plant. It always makes a noise, and that's probably the "gentle hum" the landlord mentions in her description. But what she doesn't mention is that often the noise turns into a loud, whoosing sound that caused us to flee indoors and shut the windows.
Back home at our local airport we have to walk out on the tarmac to get to an airplane, and sometimes a plane's jet engines will be idling. It's a fairly loud sound and it's a relief when you can get off the tarmac. And that's what the sound was like from the water treatment plant. Like a jet engine waiting to take off.
To be fair, the jet engine noise varied during the day from the jet sound to that gentle hum. But its presence prevented us from fully enjoying the large deck. We tried having Sunday lunch on the patio but gave up after the noise got to be too much.
It's also unfortunate that the view of the pretty Lot River is obstructed by the same water plant. To see the river and the Valentre bridge, you have to crane your neck to the left.
We also deduct points for the very laborious check-in and check-out process. It was a lesson in old-fashioned, French bureaucracy. It took about 45 minutes to cover every tiny detail about the apartment, including how to put down the toilet seat, how to open windows, how to open the fridge, etc. Most of the instructions involved NO and DON'T. As in, don't put anything hot on the counter, don't move this corkscrew from this drawer, don't slam the toilet seat down, don't put the blinds up too far.
There were extra charges to rent bath and kitchen linens (the VRBO listing does say that lines are extra, but still). We had to pay 25 Euros "rent" on towels that were like drying yourself with tissues, they were so thin. These cheap linens could have been purchased for a few Euros.
Extra points deduction for the long, laborious check-out process where every single thing was counted, every appliance was checked and, of course, there were more forms to be filled out and signed off before we could get our deposit returned.
Bottom line: will we return to the apartment? No.
Hébergement très propre , idéalement situé . Tout y est rien ne manque et les hôtes sont trés gentils , à l écoute et très arrangeants pour les arrivées et les départs . Cela a été un réel plaisir de faire leur connaissance . On se rend très vite compte qu ils font tout pour assurer un séjour parfait , c est une réussite . Nous ne manquerons pas de revenir.
très bel appartement, très bien équipé et bien situè, belle terrasse
Accueil très attentionné des propriétaires sympathiques et vraiment gentils, de bon conseil pour les visites , vraiment à conseiller
Un séjour très agréable pour les amoureux de culture et de produits du terroir
Idéalement situé à proximité du Pont Valentré (joyau de Cahors) et des caves de Malbec, l'appartement est spacieux et très bien équipé. Le box pour garer son véhicule est un plus dans une ville où de très nombreux stationnements sont payants.
L'appartement est bien situé. Vue magnifique. La propriétaire fort sympathique. Le logement très fonctionnel et très bien équipé. Si l'occasion se présente, nous n'hésiterons pas à y revenir.
Accueil formidable - appartement confortable et spacieux - a conseiller pour ceux qui souhaitent etre au bord de l'eau et un peu à l'écart du centre
parfois un peu de bruits de chantier (aout 2021) et ronronnement de la mini centrale électrique
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cet appartement très bien équipé et fonctionnel. Bravo à nelly et Alain pour la qualité et la présentation de la documentation, nous avons perçu des passionnés.
Le quartier n'est pas le plus agréable de Cahors malgré la proximité du Lot mais il est en cours de réaménagement.
Néanmoins la vue du balcon sur le Lot et le pont Valentré est des plus agréable. Il y a beaucoup de beaux sites et villages à voir dans la région, certains sont d'ailleurs classés.
Nous étions aussi à proximité du centre ancien (10 à 15 mn à pied), du départ du petit train qui fait le tour des monuments importants de Cahors et également à 5 mn à pied du départ des croisières en bateau sur le Lot (ces 2 sorties sont d'ailleurs à faire sans hésiter).
Nous avons découvert une belle région avec des gens très accueillant.
We had a wonderful stay! This apartment was clean, spacious and a great location. And very quiet.....easy to walk to town. Being on the river was the best part! Thanks for everything, Nelly. You are the perfect host!!
Excellent location in Cahors with a very pretty outlook. Good base for exploring this lovely region. Bbq and outside furniture has been a plus. Spacious apartment ideal for 4.
The flat was just right! Comfortable, easy to live in and very well equipped. (There is no lift as mentioned in the details, not that you need one.) Cahors was a lovely town, and the flat in a great location overlooking the river and Pont Valentre. There were great places to swim and kayak in the Lot valley and it was exceptionally pretty with relatively few tourists. We agreed it was the best holiday we had had in France for many years.
We have been very happy to have our vacation in this super appartment.
Large livingroom with aircondition.
Amacing huge balkony with lots of furniturs. Very god bedrooms with good beds. Vandefull vuie to the Brige and the river Lot.
Großzügiges Apartment mit Blick auf die Pont Valentre
Wir haben zwei Wochen in dieser Ferienwohnung genossen. Das geräumige Apartment ist geschmackvoll und zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Es fehlt an nichts. Dazu kommt ein Autostellplatz sowie eine große Garage, in der wir unsere Rennräder diebstahlsicher unterbringen konnten. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und die Wohnungsübergabe war unkompliziert. Auf der Terrasse kann das Betriebsgeräusch des kleinen Wasserkraftwerks störend sein, drinnen hört man es kaum. Idealer Ausgangspunkt, um Cahors und Umgebung zu erkunden. Wir würden wieder hinfahren. Merci, Nelly et Alain!

Very comfortable and well equipped apartment in superb location
Nelly and Alain were great hosts and their apartment, on the bank of the river Lot overlooking an amazing 14 century bridge, was beautifully presented and well equipped. We loved sitting on the large balcony enjoying the river scene in the evening. It was very easy to walk into old town Cahors or get away by car (and there is a dedicated garage) to all the wonderful areas of the Lot valley and historic sights. We would highly recommend to others and definitely return to this lovely apartment in a very quiet area - we had a superb week. Thank you!

Superbe location à refaire
Nous avons été conquis par notre séjour dans cette appartement. Tout est fonctionnel, il ne manque rien.
Merci a Nelly et Alain pour le soin qu'ils apportent pour que l'on se sente comme à la maison.
L'endroit est beau et nous sommes près de toutes les commodités, gare, commerce, restaurant, centre ville, départ du petit train qui fait le tour des monuments et endroits importants de Cahors. Cette activité est a recommander. Le chauffeur est amoureux de sa région. Il vous transmet sa passion et en plus il est plein d'humour. Egalement à 2 pas du départ des croisières en bateau sur le Lot aussi a recommander. La guide est très intéressante et toujours a l'écoute de toutes vos questions.
Nous avons découvert une belle région avec des gens ouverts et sympathiques.
Nous gardons un excellent souvenir de Cahors et sa région.

Excellent Apartment in Cahors
This a spacious and very well equipped apartment within 10-15 mins walking distance of the centre of Cahors, and the Pont Valentré practically on the doorstep. Our visit was in November, so we didn't manage to use the spacious balcony with barbecue - but that would be superb in summer. The apartment has an excellent kitchen with more equipment than most people will need - and don't miss Les Halles for shopping, we even managed to buy fresh real Perigord truffles! Nelly & Alain made us very welcome and couldn't do enough to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. If you need a 2 bed apartment in Cahors then this one can be highly recommended and we'll stay here again if we return to Cahors.

Spacious, well equipped apartment by the beautiful river Lot
We stayed here for 25 days and loved every one of them. The apartment is very clean, spacious and comfortable, equipped with everything one could possibly need and situated in a quiet area by the River Lot. The large terrace provides the perfect spot to sit and watch life on the river. The owners, Nelly and Alaine are justifiably proud of their apartment and went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. We will be ever grateful for the help they gave us in retrieving our lost luggage from Air France. Cahors provides an excellent base for exploring the region and the town itself is full of interest, both historic and modern. The twice weekly market is a treat and there are numerous excellent restaurants. We have no hestition in giving this apartment the highest recommendation.
Nous sommes restés ici pour 25 jours. L'appartement est très propre, comfortable et bien équipé, dans un endroit calme à côté de la rivière. Il y a une grande terrasse, parfaite pour regarder la vie sur la rivière. Les propriétaires, Nelly et Alaine sont très gentil et utile. Cahors est une ville très intéressante avec un excellent marché deux fois par semaine. Nous n'hésitons pas à recommander cet excellent appartement.
