Overview

One of France's most picturesque and historic rural landscapes, Quercy is a place to slow down and unwind. Enjoy peaceful cycle rides far from the crowds, discovering medieval villages, limestone plateaux and sprawling vineyards. Along your journey, you'll be rewarded with plenty of French delicacies to sample - think confit de canard, fresh figs and rich Malbecs - and opportunities to learn about the local cuisine at vibrant markets and family-run restaurants. At the end of each day, unwind in the serenity of your private overnight accommodation - a chateau, a manor house and a hunting lodge, each with a pool.
