Region

Quercy is the ancient name for what now is called the Lot department. The Quercy is a peaceful region with lots of space, light and colours. A wonderful scenery of untouched nature.Two large valleys, the valley of the Dordogne in the north and of the Lot in the south enclose the part that is called the 'Causse', a rough table land of lime-stone heavily eroded for ages, which is the habitat of sheep and juniper berry shrubs.River Lot Quercy is the land of stones, lots of stones: 'La pierre pousse' is an ancient expression; stones seem to grow here.Very characteristic in the landscape are the walls of stone stacked by human hands that intersect the landscape. The same stones were used to build the 'cazelles', small circular shepherd shelters of which quite a number have been preserved.
