Dine with us on the terrace or in the dining room and enjoy local specialities or world flavoured foods - depending on your taste. These are prepared with organic home grown produce, when available.  Cooking is our passion!  If you prefer to dine out, there are plenty of restaurants within a short drive, ranging from Michelin quality to good basic country fare at reasonable prices.  We can advise and book for you if you wish.

The Lot region of the Midi-Pyrenees is renowned for its wonderful food and wine. Foie gras, duck in all forms, fresh river fish, walnuts and small Rocamadour cheeses abound. Quercy lamb, which graze on the herb strewn Causse, provide rich delicious meat and is served in many ways. In the summer fat black cherries have an unfortunately short season as does the dark green asparagus which adorns every market stall from May to mid-July. The dark red Cahors wines are strong and fruity and are suitable with most of the foods of the region. Autumn brings an abundance of plums, apples, walnuts and chestnuts, which scatter the small country lanes and are free if you have large pockets!
