There are many activities and places to visit within an 1.5 hr radius, we provide a file containing local information. We can arrange guided Archaelogical tours for groups with English speaking guides. There are also many local walking groups that through prior arrangement you could join.

Our Recommendations of plus jolie places to visit would include Belcastel for riverside picnics and the 1909 restaurant for fresh foie gras, then a leisurely stroll to the stunning chateau and view the exhibition of Disney artwork and wonder at the spectacular views from the top. For a glorious day out, some wonderful walks and gourmet restaurants, we thoroughly recommend San Cirq Lapopie, only 30 mins away, there is a wine museum and fabulous art and craft shops and exhibitions. At Najac there are some lovely riverside picnic spots and canoe centers. The castle is well worth a visit and there are some lovely shops and restaurants. Villeneuve is only 5 minutes drive, it hosts 3 restaurants, a cafe under the arches, and hosts a medieval fete in July each year with spit roast pigs for the dinner in the evening. Villefranche is the largest town only 10 minutes away with a plethera of eateries, lots of shops and lovely alleys to explore. It also holds an enormous market every Thursday morning. Other markets we would recommend are at the lovely villages of Limogne and St Antonin Noble Val on a Sunday morning and at the beautiful town of Figeac on a Saturday morning.

Our guests have recommended Grottes de Foissac for caving and Roquefort for some great cheee tasting! For the kids there are a couple of insect worlds and animal parks that make a great day out and the steam train at Martel boasts incredible views.

Winter sports/skiing - The Aveyron boasts 3 ski resorts Aubrac, Brameloup and Laguiole. Aubrac is suitable for children and Brameloup includes a creche and snowgarden. Please visit the site above for more information. Higher up there is also Aurillac.
