Aveyron holiday guest house - Midi-pyrenees manor house, France

We are situated on the borders of the Lot and Cantal and it is in an ideal position for you to explore the beautiful surrounding area of the Lot and Cantal departments. We have a private river bank ideal for boating, canoeing and fishing.
