La Grange is located in the small, quiet hamlet of Liffernet in tranquil and beautiful countryside between the Cele and the Lot rivers and is ten minutes away by car from the thriving and picturesque medieval town of Figeac. With its spectacular gorges, lush valleys, historic towns (including some of the most popular and interesting sites in France, such as Rocamadour, Conques & St Cirq Lapopie), caves (notably Padirac & Grottes du Peche-Merle) and pretty villages to explore, the Lot Valley offers a broad canvas of stunning scenery and plenty to see and do. The vineyards of Cahors and Gaillac are within easy reach and well worth a visit. For active visitors, there are 4 excellent golf courses & 2 riverside tennis clubs nearby. The area also offers water sports, riding, canoeing, cycling, fishing, bird and butterfly watching (with many varied and unusual species) and walking (with an abundance of walks from the house and in the countryside around).
