Our luxury villas are the best of the French villas in the departments of Tarn and Lot, in the region of Dordogne (southwest of France). These cheap villas will suit your expectations and they will guarantee you marvellous holidays with your family and your friends.
For a snapshot of life in medieval times, visit the Renaissance market town of Sarlat-la-Canéda. Stop for a coffee at a pavement café and gaze at the 17th-century limestone buildings, or the 12th-century beehive-shaped Lanterne des Morts, Light of the Dead.
Visit the walled bastide towns of Montflanquin and Villeneuve-sur-Lot and the famous, perched village of Rocamadour or cool off in the spectacular grottos at Pech Merle and Padirac. Above all this is walking country, a land of oak trees, vines and sweet smelling fruit trees.
A little further south is the Tarn with the superb medieval bastide village of Cordes. Tarn is dotted with bustling market towns such as romanesque Moissac and medieval bastides such as Cordes. Everywhere you will see colourful orchards and vineyards and the Aveyron Gorges provide a dramatic and scenic expedition.
The huge choice of restaurants make the most of the delicious, local specialities from the area, which is renowned for its duck and goose dishes, truffles and foie gras pâté, walnuts and goats’ cheeses. And of course no meal would be complete without enjoying one of the rich, red and sweet white wines from Cahors or Bergerac or a Bordeaux vintage.
Go back even further in time, and venture into the prehistoric caves in the Vézère Valley, close to the 2000 year old town of Périgueux. The tiny village of Les Eyzies is the valley's centre, with some of the world's oldest art works, and caves displaying thousands of animal engravings, 15,000 years old. The fascinating Lascaux caves are at Montignac. The Lascaux cave, the 'Sistine chapel of prehistoric art'‚ is closed to the general public, but the Lascaux II cave is an excellent replica, with paintings of bison, horses and reindeer.
Truffles and walnuts can be bought at Sarlat's Saturday market, and traditional food can be tried at one of the 'a la ferme' restaurants. Local wines include Bergerac and Cahors, and the dessert wine, Monbazillac.
