Photos
The Midi-Pyrenees / Lot region
In the southwest of France, the lovely Lot department enjoys long summers and colourful springs and autumns. Beautiful villages and countryside greet you at every turn with meandering rivers, historic villages and vineyards. Here, you are spoilt for choice with numerous 'Plus beaux villages de France' including Rocomadour and St Cirq Lapopie.
Cahors dates to the roman times and all visitors must wander through the old town with its lovely architecture and restaurants as well as marvel at the UNESCO Valentré bridge.
The Valroufie area
The historic villages of Rocomadour and St Cirq Lapopie set in the cliffs must be visited.
Just 8 mins away, Cahors has a famous bi-weekly market where you can enjoy the local produce such as juicy melons, goats cheese, duck and the huge choice of wine.
In the July, Cahors hosts an annual jazz festival welcoming artists from around the globe. There are also two nights markets highlighting local produce - usually the first Mondays in July and August.
During the summer period, all villages hold their annual fete with a supper of many courses - these are worth a visit.
Medieval caves, such as the Gouffre de Padirac' with its underground river or the 'Grotte de Pech Merle' with its ancient drawings, abound.
Children are kept happy by the many boat trips, road trains, water parks and new go-kart track for over 5 year olds.
