The Lot Valley is an outstanding area of natural beauty. The landscape changes as you move through the valley from high up vineyards, to lush green fields; wide lazy waterways to powerful waterfalls. And dotted along the way are picturesque bastide towns and medieval castles rich in history and culture.

The best way to see the Lot Valley is slowly – either by foot, bike or by hiring a canoe. You will pass a wealth of wildlife en route, including over two thousand species of flora and fauna and many types of birds and animals including deer, stags, foxes, squirrels, rabbits, owls, hawks and buzzards. The area is well looked after and many areas of countryside are protected so that they can be enjoyed for years to come.

The Lot Valley is still relatively unknown in comparison to other parts of South France. As a result, you will get to experience authentic French culture and cuisine in the local restaurants – and you will find eating out is still excellent value for money. It is also a good place to take your children to give them a taste of real France and let them practise their French speaking with the locals!

Our holiday accommodation creates the perfect base for you to holiday in style and comfort. All of our 60 or so gites, cottages, farmhouses and château are beautifully decorated and equipped to the highest standards. All properties have attractive gardens and a swimming pool – so you can make the most of the warm sunny weather – and enjoy the outdoors long into the evening.

Other things to do on your stay include visiting local vineyards at Cahors, taking a thermal bath or beauty treatment at one of the Lot Valley spa towns or while away the day sunbathing and picnicking on the banks of a leisure lake.
