Sunset over Payrac

The Midi-Pyrenees / Lot region

The Lot is a most beautiful part of France with limestone plateaux, deep valleys and gorges.A walker's area with numerous randonees.Visit prehistoric caves with fabulous paintings,gouffres with underground rivers where you need to board a boat to continue your journey. The world heritage site of Rocamador is close by. It is one of the great stopovers for the Compostela pilgrims. You will very close to the chateaux of the Lot and Dordogne.There are medieval and Roman towns to explore, as well as the, very interesting, more recent history of the resistance to discover. Or stay close to home, shopping at nearby markets and enjoying the, normal for here, two hour lunch. A week's too short really, so you may have to come back.

The Gourdon / Payrac area

The main village of Payrac a 5 min walk away has a mini supermarket with with a very good butcher's department,a boulangerie is next to one of the 2 Foie Gras shops (i'ts a good region for ducks, or not, depending on how you look at it ) a Pharmacy,Newsagent,and Garage are close by. The Legend hotel has a restaurant with themed evenings and music nights,there is a seasonal restaurant and a pizza restaurant also offering takeaways, a cafe where you can get the menu ouvriers (workman's lunch) or just pop in for a coffee or beer.A producers market sets up next to the church on Wednesday mornings. Various fetes and markets happen during the year.
