Domaine de Labarthe
An exceptional Estate and Guesthouse
nestled in the Valley of the Lot
A private estate outside the ancient town of Cahors, offering beautiful suites and guest rooms,
cosy cottages and a reception hall for exclusive events…
A unique property
About 8 km from Cahors, on a road winding through the region’s celebrated Malbec vineyards, an exquisite 18th century manor house lies hidden among the walnut groves, just waiting to show you the famed hospitality found only in the finest French guesthouses.
Our seven guest rooms and gîtes have been renovated and tastefully decorated. In summer, delicious breakfasts are served on the terrace facing ancient olive trees. Wooded gardens, a heated swimming pool and a lovely view of the countryside provide a perfect setting for a calm, peaceful holiday.
Domaine de Labarthe is also perfect for your exclusive corporate events and private receptions. Reception rooms with fireplaces, a French-style garden, and a huge converted barn are ideal for special group events.
The guesthouse is open all year round.
Accommodations
The guest rooms
The guest rooms at Labarthe overlook the grounds, offering abundant natural light and perfectly quiet surroundings – if anything wakes you it will be the gentle sound of birdsong. The old thick walls of Quercy stone keep the rooms peaceful and cool in summer. All the rooms, three of which are on the ground floor, have been recently renovated and each has its own toilet and bathroom. They feature antique furniture, soft colours and contemporary details, to give an overall feeling of comfort and sophistication.
The bedding is excellent, and beds are made in the traditional manner with fine cotton sheets and light or thick woollen blankets depending on the season.
GITES
Some of the original 17th century estate’s outbuildings have survived the years: once used for farming and wine production, these have now been restored and transformed into comfortable, independent gites.
They can be rented for a few days or by the week.

Exquisitely decorated and facilities near many historical sites! Very luxury services - attentive to our preferences, delicious off the farm and local fresh breakfast, excellent wine menu, local soap / shampoo, great restaurant recommendations. Their wine list for purchase is great - we ordered sparkling wine and it was brought with savory snacks. All decorations like rugs, server plates, silverware, furniture, blankets are all top highest end quality. You can purchase them to take wine, soap, shampoo, cream, etc. home too. Howard Bloch14/11/2024Trustindex vérifie que la source originale de l'avis est Google. We were overwhelmed by the beauty of the location of Espere ---and by all the little details that seemed to anticipate each of our needs and desires---the small adjustable individual reading lights, a warming towel rack, a bit of outcropping rock used as a shelf for a tiny lamp, not to mention a sumptuous breakfast every morning in front of a blazing fire---a breakfast that varied each day --- fresh orange juice, pains raisins, brebis yogurt, fresh pineapple wedges, grapefruit halves, delectable croissants, and so on... Our hosts were incredibly kind and extremely well-informed. The whole experience was an apex of thoroughly gracious hospitality, aesthetic beauty, and gastronomic delight! We loved every single minute and felt sad to depart this tranquil paradise! Kate Bartholomew14/11/2024Trustindex vérifie que la source originale de l'avis est Google. We stayed at Domaine Lebarthe for three days, and it was the best part of our trip to France. Laurence and Guillaume were incredibly warm and helpful with local activities and restaurant recommendations. (The local wineries within walking distance were lovely, and I enjoyed an excellent yoga class.) Their place is so restful and every detail is considered. I revisit in my mind often - I would love to return again in person! Daniela Busarello31/10/2024Trustindex vérifie que la source originale de l'avis est Google. Fantastic!
