Property information

We fell in love with Les Chimeres as soon as we saw it all those years ago...despite being a ruin! Even bought it WITHOUT seeing inside....wonderful atmosphere and wonderful views. Oh and it's meant to be haunted....sorry, can't guarantee ghost tho..

Neighbourhood information

Ideally situated between Cahors and Montauban and only an hour's drive from Toulouse. Lots of mediaeval villages to visit not too far away....St Cirq la Popie, St Antonin Noble Val where they filmed Charlotte Gray and A 100 steps with Helen Mirren. Bruniquel, Puycelsi are also worth a visit and if you drive a bit further, Cordes, Moissac and Albi are delightful.
