You will be in the heart of the Aveyron! The village was founded by monks in 500AD,and once the capital of the region,steeped in history with the Levezou Rouergue nobles.I have got to know many artists,musicians and people from the surrounding villages,and we are very active with the festivals,reviving old traditions;fete du truffles,fete de cochon,feu de St Jean etc concerts,theatre,exhibitions,outdoor music & dance. The village generations go back a long way,and the grandchildren have returned to rebuild the ruins, and the village school now has 30 children.It is very French.A great opportunity to soak up French culture.Farms with brebis sheep providing milk to make the roquefort cheese plus Aubrac cows for beef.We have several hamlets with fantastic cycle/walking routes,which take 1-7 hours,small weekly farmer's local products market, private airfield,natural springs,grocery stores, churches, museums...... Open Air films
