The Midi-Pyrenees / Lot region
Domaine Lapeze, an original pilgrim resting place along the route to Santiago de Compostela, is situated 25km south-west of Cahors in the Lot.
This is the ideal place from which to discover the medieval cities of Cordes sur Ciel and St. Cirq Lapopie, as well as the treasures of Cahors, Montauban, Moissac, Albi and Toulouse and at the same time enjoy the culinary delights of the South West of France.
Montcuq area
Activities in the area include cycling (bicycles can be hired in the village), riding, fishing (lake within walking distance), tennis (there are courts nearby), there is also a 9-hole golf course approximately 12km away.
The village, MONTCUQ, is thriving. It has shops, 4 restaurants, 3 bars, a small market of home produce held during the summer on Thursdays and a much larger weekly Sunday market all year.

After about 10km on the N20, you will come to a third roundabout. Follow the D653, signposted to MONTCUQ - it is a small windy road of about 25 kms.

Carry on, keeping right, up the hill. After some plum orchards you will see Domaine Lapeze on the left.

The "péage" from Toulouse to Montauban is €2.20 - they accept credit cards – and from Montauban to Cahors, it is €2.90. Just before Montauban, the motorway splits, follow the signs for Paris/Limoges. This will take you to the A20 motorway after Montauban. Take the exit for Cahors Sud (Junction 58) and follow the signs for Cahors (N20) at the next 2 roundabouts.
