The house is situated 25 km south of the Dordogne river in the north-west of Lot. The area is peaceful and unspoilt, while being within easy reach of the many famous attractions of the Dordogne region. Convenient for Sarlat, Rocamadour, Gouffre de Padirac, Les Eyzies , and attractive old towns – Domme, St Cirq-Lapopie and Cahors - home to the famous 'black wine' with many vineyards offering 'degustation'. Beautiful local countryside for walking and cycling from the house. There are many activities for the family, including canoeing on the Dordogne, Lot and Cele rivers. There is a water park at nearby Payrac, and a “parc animalier” at Gramat. Two excellent golf courses within 30 km. Horse riding and fishing are available.
Gourdon (15km) is an attractive medieval market town with all major facilities. Le Vigan (8 km) has a supermarket, butcher, pharmacy, boulangerie and restaurants. Grocery, bread and fish vans call weekly. Local produce is available from the neighbouring farmer.
