ESPENTALS - Local area
|
The nearest village is Touffailles about 2.5 km away; it has an excellent bakery which also has a groceries section offering a good selection essentials (such as milk, cheese, wine, veg, fruit, cleaning stuff, light bulbs, and much more). Touffailles also has a lake, 2 children's play areas, and an excellent tennis court (Photo Right) for which we have bought an annual membership, allowing guests to play tennis free of charge whenever they wish. The key to the Touffailles tennis court is kept in the Espentals kitchen drawer for use whenever you chose. |

Both Montaigu-de-Quercy and Lauzerte (both shown above) are very pretty small towns which offer supermarkets, shops, restaurants, bars and tourist attractions as well as weekly markets. Montaigu has an excellent leisure lake which offers a large sandy beach, swimming, water slides, tennis, mini golf, and a restaurant. Bicycles can be hired from the Larroque Garage at Montaigu and from other local providers. Lauzerte is a classic bastide town with a beautiful old centre and impressive fortifications. It is an important popular stop on the pilgrimage route of St Jaques de Compostelle. |

This is an area very rich in history and heritage; the town of Moissac (shown left and right) with its famous Roman cloisters and architecture is just 18 km south and there are a host of medieval Bastide villages nearby, including Lauzerte. The Chateaux and Vineyards of Cahors are within 10 minutes, and make an excellent afternoon, or all-day, visit. |
