We’re often asked why we moved from the hustle and bustle of city life in Melbourne, Australia, to a charming, tranquil village in the Lot, France. So, here’s our story, plus snippets of daily life, what’s going on around and about and a few personal recommendations for great days out.
We hope you enjoy reading about our new life in France and look forward to welcoming you to La Gaillardenque Gîtes!
From how it all began to creating your very own French adventure!
- Visit the Lot: Saint-Cirq Lapopie
Perched on a cliff 100 metres above the River Lot, the medieval village of Saint-Cirq Lapopie is officially recognised as one of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France and once voted the #1 Favourite Village by the French. Located just an hour’s drive from La Gaillardenque, it’s well worth visiting. - How it all began..
There is something about France – the charm of the countryside, the relaxed rhythm of life, the beauty everywhere you look. From the first day we visited, the love affair with France never ended and tugged at the heart strings. Eventually, living in France became more than a dream. It became a plan.
