Places To Visit

The character of the Lot has various facets, each embodied in a different area, and it's this amazing diversity that makes it so fascinating.

Step Back in Time

Much of the Lot Valley is peppered with small towns and hill-top villages, most dating back to mediaeval times.

Study the architecture and wonder at what these buildings have been through in their long history.

These villages also offer the artist or photographer unrivalled opportunities to capture a sense of history made all the more dramatic by the stunning light of the Southern French climate.

Anchient and Modern

Experience it all. Travel back in time to the village markets that have been taking place for many hundreds of years in any one of a dozen small, picturesque, village squares. Combine the ancient with the modern and visit larger towns such as Cahors where medieval architecture is intertwined with today's vibrant retail experience.
