The Midi-Pyrenees / Lot region
La Carriere is ideally placed on the border of the Lot and Dordogne departments and only 10 minutes drive from the Dordogne river. The whole area is steeped in history going back to the 12th century and is adored by old castles and chateaux around every corner. The historical towns of Sarlat, Gourdon and the second most visited attraction in France Rocamadour where French Christianity was born, are popular attractions together with boat trips on both the Dordogne and Lot rivers.
There is an abundance of entertainment for children too including the many fetes that take place around the villages, a water park within 15 minutes drive, canoeing of the many rivers, and a whole host of entertainment parks ranging from pre historic to monkey parks, zoos and mini golf, not forgetting displays of ‘birds of prey’ and seasonal theme displays within the many small towns that surround the area.
