Delightful Self-catering Town House In the centre of the old part of the medieval town of Saint-Flour is a unique house built between the buttresses of a 15th-century church.

This delightful self-catering rental property is available for up to 5 people. It is a unique cottage or town house built between the buttresses of a 15th-century church. Situated in the heart of the old part of town, the accommodation consists of 2 bedrooms, lounge, bathroom, and kitchen-dining room. The rent is inclusive of linen and electricity. No hidden extras for your self-catering holiday! Buy the local cheeses, wines, and vegetables at the local market. Dine out in ‘bijou’ restaurants or the local château. This holiday rental property was built just after the Revolution in 1789 and has been restored to keep many of the original features intact, but not compromise on modern conveniences.

18 rue Sorel is the most-photographed house in Saint-Flour. It lies in the heart of the old town of narrow, cobbled streets and many places and market squares. It was built between the buttresses of the 15th-century church of Saint Vincent (now an art gallery) just after the Revolution, about 1789, for (and probably by) the local carpenter who was employed to look after the church buildings. It goes straight up for 5 floors, with one room on each floor.

This unique little house was bought in 1993 by the present owners. It has been carefully restored, rather than renovated, in order to preserve the character of the period in which it was built. As many of the original features as possible have been kept — the hidden wall cupboards, the old stairs and ancient stone arch of the church in the top bedroom, the catches on the doors. Modern plumbing was installed for the bathroom and an up-to-date kitchen. It has central heating.
