Your accommodation is a double room on the first floor with en-suite shower room which has a view over the water, allowing you to start each morning majestically by opening the shutters to welcome the new day. You will then have breakfast on the wisteria lined terrace. We can also offer table d'hote by prior arrangement. Please allow minimum 24hrs notice. IMPORTANT Our house dates from 1874 and therefore needs maintenance. In the summer of 2023, there is scaffolding on the façade to allow access to the roof. However, we have taken care to ensure that the view from your room is largely preserved.
Your hosts are a husband and wife team who made L' ancienne Forge their permanent home in 2008 after a short break in the Lot Valley and liked it so much they changed everything to be here. We hope you enjoy it as much and are delighted with all it has to offer.
Welcome to the Lot Valley An authentic French rural experience awaits you at the old forge on the banks of the Lot, just 4 km from Saint Cirq Lapopie, officially one of the most beautiful villages in France and voted "Favourite Village of the French" in 2012.
