Further details
The Lot is the place that time forgot and is based on the northern part of the old royal province of the Quercy. It is divided into two areas, the Causse in the centre, which dominates and gives the landscape its distictive character and around this rocky region, the gentler hills and valleys of the Quercy Blanc. This region is an area of exceptional natural beauty and has much to offer for those wanting to have a real French holiday. The Valley of the Dordogne stretches on a 60km east-west band from Sousceyrac to Souillac. The wonderful countryside offers an abundance of wildlife and is a walkers and naturalists paradise with access to the Cantal mountains, where indeed in the winter months there is excellent skiing and other winter sports. Ancient caves, castles and many cliff top villages including Rocamadour, the second most visited place in France are all within a short driving distance. The area is safe and quiet for lovers of walking and mountain biking with many varied routes along roads and forest paths. The Tolerme Lake is only 8kms away, which offers fishing,wonderful bird watching, nature walks and other water based activities. The famous Cahors vineyards are also within very easy reach and the area is renowed for its locally produced goats cheese and fois gras, which is a speciality of the area and is available at many outlets in the surrounding villages. There is never a need to go hungry or thirsty as there is an abundance of bars, cafes and restaurants in the area for all tastes and to suit all budgets and most offer a very good variety of dishes.
