About Le Coteau's holiday homes in the south west France.
The original house was built circa 1860 although it has been changed over time. The barn has retained much of its original character including stone walls and old beams. There is no doubting the charm of the village of Generest, an idyllic rural French community with traditional houses and wonderful valley view.
