Overview
Description
Cardenard is very tranquil, situated at the end of its own lane, with superb views over the valleys from its commanding position on the edge of the deep valley of the Baye. The aerial view in the gallery of photos shows all the property, with its main house, cottage and a number of outbuildings. It is surrounded by farm land about 4 miles north of the unspoiled village of Verfeil-sur-Seye, which has an excellent bakery and general store. Larger towns are within easy reach. It is our family's second home; the main house is comfortably furnished and fully equipped accommodating at least twelve people, with the option of four more in the cottage. This is not let separately, but is ideal as an overflow from the main house for members of the party, such as older teenagers, grandparents or an au pere, who may want to be separate. There is a large salon with an imposing fireplace and a fully equipped farmhouse kitchen with a table seating twelve or more. There is a 12 x 6 metre swimming pool, a large sun terrace, a pergola, shaded with vines and a barbecue. In a corner of the garden, there is a further terrace overlooking the valleys which is ideal for al fresco breakfasts.17 Reviews
Leave ReviewAn unforgettable family holiday!
By The Edwards on 28-Jul-2025The house was perfect for our group of 20, with spacious bedrooms, a brilliantly equipped kitchen, and so much room for everyone. The terrace and pool area were simply stunning, with views that took our breath away. We loved exploring the local market towns, sampling incredible food and wine (the tomatoes alone were unforgettable!), and then coming back to relax in such a beautiful setting. It was everything we’d hoped for and more. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate time together as a family.
A truly special family holiday
By The Bentleys on 26-Jul-2025We had the most incredible family holiday at this beautiful farmhouse. There were 20 of us ranging in age from 2 to 76, and the house had everything we could have wished for. The main house was huge, with five spacious bedrooms, and the adjoining cottage provided two more, giving us plenty of space. The kitchen was wonderfully well stocked—literally everything you could possibly need was provided, which made cooking for such a large group a pleasure. The outside space was just as impressive, with a stunning terrace and a beautiful pool overlooking the most breathtaking views. We spent countless hours enjoying the sunshine, swimming, and sharing meals together. The local area was also a delight—charming market towns, amazing food and wine, and the freshest tomatoes we’ve ever tasted! This was a truly special family holiday, and the farmhouse provided the perfect setting for us all to come together. Highly recommend!
Time to relax!
By Gemma and family on 10-Aug-2024This was our second summer holiday at Le Cardenard - I am sure we will return. What is not to love - a beautiful house in a very quiet and tranquil setting, you really are away from it all. We are an extended family of 14 but there is still plenty of space with a large pool and garden and amazing views from every direction! So many nearby places to visit and we indulged in the market produce, there is one almost everyday somewhere!. Owner is so helpful and responsive….we will be back!
Very nice and quiet
By Johanna on 27-Jul-2024We had a lovely week with our family in this beautiful house and all the facilities. The pool was wonderful, we loved the pingpong table in the shed and the garden with the plumtrees, tomatoes and herbs. The kitchen was very well equipped with all the appliances we needed. . We visited the chateau of Najac and some local markets and brocante.
Brilliant
By Peggy on 03-Aug-2024We had an amazing week at this gorgeous house. It was a beautiful setting. The house was very comfortable and the gardens are very well kept, with loads of space for games. The pool was lovely and enjoyed by all. We were 11 in all plus a baby and all had enough space to have quiet times and boisterous games of cricket. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you John for all the written information and your attention to detail
Relaxing & peaceful holiday .
By Hilary Hobden on 12-Aug-2023Beautiful house & location . If you are in a party with children , more washing line needed . The house desperately needs ceiling fans , it was 39 degrees for most of our stay & upstairs was so hot at night . Would go again if fans were installed .
