This property ticked all the boxes for us, both as a family holiday home and accommodation for larger parties. Its location - in the heart of a charming rural village yet only 15 minutes from exit 57 on the A20 - Within easy reach of four airports ( Toulouse, Brive, Rodez, Limoges). Cahors with its culture, wine food and markets only ½ hour away. The house and village is redolent with history and tradition, yet now boasts all modern amenities. Add to this the wide range of sights to see ( St. Cirq Lapopie, Rocamadour, The Prehistoric Cave Paintings of Pech Merle and subterranean boat trips in the Gouffre de Padirac. A short distance away are the
towns of Albi with its magnificent cathedral, the medieval alleyways of Figeac and the exquisite Cordes-sur-Ciel perched on its commanding rock. All around is the rolling countryside of the Causses de Quèrcy with its wooded coombs and deep ravined rivers, a joy for artists, hunters, fishermen, canoeists and cyclists alike. To the southwest of Cahors are the vineyards where the renowned Malbec is grown; fresh truffles can be bought at the market in Lalbenque and friendly hunting neighbours occasionally present you with a leg of boar. Local villages boast a selection of fair days, vide greniers and farmers' markets. Children can play in a safe environment of an idyllic landscape. There is indeed something for everybody here.
