Superb Walking Holidays in the Lot department & Dordogne Valley of France

Independent Self-Guided Walking Holidays in the Lot Department and Dordogne Valley


The first to offer Independent Walking Holidays in the area and delighted to remain the most popular! Our local knowledge is unbeatable.

	Discover a part of France where the picturesque villages and rural landscape have changed little since the Hundred Years' War in the 15th century. As one of the oldest-inhabited areas of France, you may be forgiven for thinking that time really does seem to have stood still. Here there are no cities and virtually no industry. The people still enjoy a simple life and are proud to share their heritage with you. Experience this wonderful world with our popular Inclusive Walking Holiday Package.

We have one of the largest concentrations of medieval villages specially denoted as "Les Plus Beaux Villages de France" for their history, architecture and ambience. These include Autoire, Carennac and Loubressac. Our specially designed walks will take you to some of these villages and others are easily reached if you wish to explore more of the area. One of our most popular walks starts from the picture postcard village of Beaulieu sur Dordogne which rests alongside the Dordogne river. This stretch of the Dordogne Valley is one of the most interesting with dramatic scenery and hidden chateaux. Discover the wealth of history on our doorstep.

	As you walk through the varied landscapes rich with wildlife you will find carpets of wildflowers and a fabulous display of butterflies. Above you, buzzards and kites circle on the thermals, whilst in the woods, red squirrels and pine marten scurry about their daily business. Climb meandering paths up stunning limestone cliffs or stroll alongside crystal clear streams. Enter ancient woodlands or ascend to hill-top meadows with 360 degree views. The fabulous Lot countryside awaits you.
All of this and you will stay in our renovated farmhouse with its 3 ensuite bedrooms where for 6 evenings you will enjoy wonderful home-cooking using fresh local ingredients - we have a vegetarian menu as well. Relax in our garden or sit in our adjacent field to watch the world go by. On a hot summer's day you can visit our local lake with its own restaurant and cafe where you can cool down with a well deserved swim.
