Holiday Report: Lot Valley, France
June 16th, 2009Lot Valley, April 2009
Emma Thompson, Far and Ride
I took a cheap and easy flight with Ryanair from London Stansted to Rodez and the transfer to the gite took 45 minutes. On arrival in the evening I walked into a relaxed atmosphere to find people talking around the roaring wood burner. Amongst the guests there were two sisters, Vanessa and Jayne on their sixth visit and one of Far and Ride’s good friends on her second visit to the Lot Valley, following her first visit at Christmas time.
I was handed a glass of wine and sat down at the large wooden dining table for an introductory chat, whilst eating some snacks which consisted of some seriously tasty homemade pate, fresh bread, Toulouse sausage, homemade quiche and a selection of cheeses. After the travelling, chatting, food and drink it was time to retire to my suitably comfortable bedroom. All rooms are en-suite, they provide towels, offer large mirrors and hairdryers (important for some!!). The furniture throughout the gite is traditional in its French style with an air of shabby chic in the bedrooms.
