Known as the gateway to Southern France , the Aveyron Department, benefits from a near Mediterranean climate- without the crowds. We are situated along a little known 20 mile stretch of the river Lot, between the lower and upper valleys and including the Gorge du Lot in what the Rough Guide describes as the "most beautiful section of the River Lot". Some cottages are positioned near thr Rivers Truyère and Goul, both of which run into the Lot at Entraygues. Being completely unspoilt and uncommercialised, the area contains some magical villages with wonderful value, family-owned restaurants providing a wide selection of delicious local produce, wines and cheese. Surrounded by stunning scenery makes this a walker's paradise with an opportunity to see a variety of wildlife, beautiful flowers and fauna and a wonderful selection of bird species rarely found in the UK.

Within easy driving distance, there are plenty of spectacular places and sites to visit whether it be the fabulous historic village of Rocamadour, the prehistoric cave paintings at Perche Merle, the underground caves at Padirac, a day out in the remote Auvergne with its lunar landscape appearance, or the awesome grandeur of the Tarn Gorge and the new Millau viaduct. The list is endless and we are certain you will not be disappointed.
