Travel
The nearest airport is Rodez from which there are cheap flights by Ryan Air. The journey from Channel ports is a long one, about 12 hours but you are driving through beautiful areas in France. The use of a car is almost essential, no public transport, and you will want to explore this little known but fascinating region of southwest France.
Distances
The centre of the village is a 5 minute walk away, bakers/general store and a very good butcher's shop. Figeac and Villefranche, both lovely old towns are 20-25 minutes drive away. Many bastide towns are within 1 hours journey and the countryside is stunning, limestone plateau, rivers, cliffs, caves etc etc.
Further details
Good supermarkets can be found at Figeac or Villefranche, as are good restaurants with one of the best in the area at Bel Castel, 1 star in the Michelin, but deserves more! Banks and other good shops are also in Figeac or Villefranche. Riding, river swimming, hiking, biking, are all nearby. Village festivals, music concerts, jazz and pop and classical are all available. The summer programmes of most of the towns around are interesting and varied.
