Gite de la Viguerie

A retreat in the heart of Aveyron, set in natural surroundings with no neighbours or overlooking views, within the Rougier de Marcillac. The estate overlooks the valley and opens onto a wide horizon. It is a place to breathe, slow down and find tranq

Tucked away in the heart of Aveyron, in the warm and distinctive landscape of the Rougier de Marcillac, Gîte de la Viguerie offers you a rare escape. Set in the peaceful Dourdou valley, in the village of Pruines, our 1-hectare property invites you to breathe differently, slow down, and reconnect with what matters.

From the moment you arrive, your eyes take in a living valley where forests and meadows unfold with the seasons. Nature here is unspoiled: a few cows graze quietly nearby, farm work punctuates rural life, and below, the murmur of the Dourdou river accompanies this soothing scenery.

The property wraps around you: a wooded park, home to an orchard and aromatic herbs, opens onto the surrounding hills. The panoramic pool, wrapped in calm, invites you to swim while gazing out at the horizon. As unobtrusive neighbours living on the property, we look after your comfort while carefully guarding your privacy. The sky, free of light pollution, will delight anyone drawn to stars and silence.

We've taken a deeply environmentally conscious approach: no pesticide treatments, mulching instead, dry hedges, birdhouses, and beehives on site. This same commitment to comfort paired with restraint carries through to how we run the gîte, with LED lighting, flow-reducing fixtures, and composting.

Treat yourself to this inspiring break, just 15 minutes from Conques, where quiet luxury meets vibrant nature for a stay built around serenity.
