Set against the backdrop of the Pyrenees mountains is the ancient monument of La Manufacture Royale de Lectoure. Located in the town of Lectoure, this 18th century tannery has undergone extensive renovations after 30 years of quiet abandon, and is now an elegant holiday haven.
One entire wing (in the other wing, the owners run a boutique hotel) of this large property has been transformed into a spacious abode to accommodate up to 15 guests. The design is contemporary and eye-catching with bright pops of woody yellow, soft pink and dusky orange breathing life into every room of this two-storey neoclassical property.
The reception lounge and dining room are both large enough to accommodate all the guests, while the bedrooms are intimate and private with windows overlooking the private garden outside. The cellar kitchen is fully equipped with appliances and dishware, and the bathrooms are roomy and stocked with luxurious personal care products. Out by the back, cocooned in the courtyard, is a cosy garden anchored by a large tree that shelters the benches and seating below. If you’re looking to soak in the tranquillity of the picturesque French countryside, this is the place to be.
The main town of Lectoure is worth a visit, if you’d like to take a walk around the property. Within 15 mintes drive, you can find lakes/rivers to coll off and for kids to play. The area is famous for having hundreds of kilometres of hiking trails that you can explore on foot or by bicycle, while making pit stops at prominent churches and castles.
