It is one of the 11 most beautiful villages in the region and is adorned with flowers. The small village is a quick walk. The free parking area for motorhomes is about 500 meters outside of the village. Car parking is available just before the end of the village.

In a word: breathtaking. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to these caves. The Padirac Gorge is without a doubt the most beautiful in France, and its dimensions are extraordinary. Another great feature is that the cave tour is narrated with an audio guide (in your own language). During the tour, a boatman will be waiting for you for a small boat trip through the caves. Plenty to admire: Giant limestone concretions, underground lakes, incredible serpentine sculptures, impressive stalactites and stalagmites. The only downside (as far as I'm concerned): it's very touristy. Tip: combine a visit to the caves with a visit to Racomadour (the city in the rocks).

Bretenoux is a fortified town in the Haut-Quercy region, recognizable by its checkerboard layout and large central square lined with arcades. Located at the confluence of the Cère and Dordogne rivers, it has been a busy trading center since the Middle Ages. Today, its lively streets and well-preserved heritage make it a pleasant stopover between Rocamadour and the valley's castles.

Small, bustling town. Lively center, beautiful view of the castle.

Nice campsite by the river, in town, yet quiet. Beautiful pitches, clean restrooms. Small pool, small bar. Nice service; they brought me a table and chair.👍⛺

A very charming village, each street offers a new angle for photos, typical half-timbered houses.

Some of the windows in the nave contain stained glass from the 16th century. Today only fragments remain (restoration in the 1990s). One window shows a crucifixion scene, another Jean II de Castelnau (the father of the church's founder Jacques de Castelnau) in his robes with his protector, John the Baptist, and his wife Anne de Culant with Saint Anne.
