Campagne chic au coeur du Lot
Lalbenque • Pays de la truffe
A charming retreat in the heart of Quercy
Nestled in the heart of the Quercy causses, near Lalbenque, the black truffle capital, this former barn from 1856 has been lovingly restored. Surrounded by dry stone walls and truffle oaks, it harmoniously blends rural authenticity with modern comfort.
Just 1 km from the Saint-Jacques trails, the gîte welcomes hikers, families and friends seeking nature and conviviality. Here, you can savor the silence of the causses, share good South-West wine, discover truffles and enjoy the simple pleasure of a sunset.
A story of passion and authenticity
Lovingly renovated in 2001, the building has preserved all its authenticity. Its original walls, carefully maintained, tell the story of a rural and sincere Quercy, while modern amenities now bring comfort and quality of life.
Wood and stone blend harmoniously, creating an atmosphere that is both warm and elegant. Fireplace, wood stove, heated pool, fully equipped kitchen: everything has been designed for your comfort.
Gîte de Marcenac is much more than just a place to stay: it's a charming and authentic escape, where every stone seems to whisper a story, and where every moment is lived to the fullest.
Here, each room has its atmosphere, each awakening its light.
