What to See and Do
Owners Recommendations
'Gastronomy'
"For pure "value", restaurants here are difficult to beat. Cooking is usually simple, fresh and delicious. Many menus include local produce such as duck, goose, plums, cepes and of course foie gras. At the top end of the scale, internationally acclaimed restaurants will test the appetite of anyone, whilst for those who wish to enjoy good and affordable meals, there is an excellent choice of family restaurants and auberges of character that can be well within the budget. For wine, a look at the map of the region will reveal a wide choice of wonderful, famous names and wine regions. North is Bergerac and Cote de Duras, South Buzet and East Cahors and the dark red wine known as "Cahors Noir".

'Places to Visit'
"The Lot Valley, Bas Quercy, Occitania, Aquitaine and Pays de Serres (which means an Eagle's talons) are some of the evocative names given to the region. Offering a gentle beauty, it is essentially deep provincial South West France. Generally quieter than most regions, the departments covered are Lot-et-Garonne, Tarn-et-Garonne, Lot and Dordogne. The principal cities are Toulouse and Bordeaux."
'Things to Do'
"Something is here to suit all the family, including: fishing, tennis, walking, golf, cycling, horse riding, lake swimming, windsurfing, canoeing, and much, much, more."
