Le Grand Rieu is located in the centre of what is known as the 'French Bastide Circuit'. There are many villages with traditional markets, steeped in history and nearly all of them are up on 'a mount'. The 'Bastide circuit' is definitely worth exploring for its many medieval festivals and displays.

The river Garonne is also in the vicinity at about 8 miles south of us at the village of Castelmoron-Sur-Lot. Here you can fish, hire kayaks and small boats, swim in the river. The river Dordogne is located at Bergerac and is a 'must-see' place.

There are loads of chateaux to visit and wine tours to do!

A truly lovely area where the pace is just that bit slower and there are no traffic jams to worry about.
