La Grange de tabac

Le Domaine de Loupiac

Le Domaine de Loupiac is situated in a region which has a rich historical past and beautiful scenery. Our domain, located in the Lot (Dordogne), is over 3,5 hectares and has three wonderful holiday houses (4-9 persons, 4-5 persons, 2 persons). If you are looking for the real French atmosphere, beautiful scenery and various touristic possibilities in the surroundings, then Loupiac is the perfect place for a wonderful holiday.

Our domain lies in a varied hilly landscape. Directly from the houses you can take either short or long walks along the countryside. A three kilometre walk brings you to Payrac, a sweet little village with an authentic French café, a ‘Buro de Tabac’ for your English newspaper, a baker, a pharmacist and a small supermarket which has a good butcher.

All three houses have their own big gardens with beautiful terraces for dining outdoors, overlooking the surrounding fields and woods. The houses have an authentic French atmosphere but are fully accommodated with the necessary modern equipment. In The Netherlands we owned an interior decorating shop. With this experience we have tastefully furnished the houses. During the summer months we will also be present on the domain and are obliged to help you and answer any questions.

Le Domaine de Loupiac contains a beautiful authentic tobacco shed, which stands aside from the other houses and has been completely rebuilt en furnished.

Loupiac is a small village with a dozen of houses.

The nearest village is Payrac (3km) where you can find a bakery, a pharmacy, a little supermarket with an exellent butcher, and some restaurants.

Interesting villages and places to visit:

Souillac

Recognised as the entrance to the Dordogne , it still maintains an historic atmosphere with its crumbling abbey and narrow streets in the old town. As the hub for the Lot and the Dordogne there is always plenty going on.

Market: Friday mornings in Place St Martin and Place Doussot

Rocamadour

This cliff-face town has been on the pilgrimage map for centuries, and at one time rivalled Lourdes itself. The architecture and sheer scale is magnificent.

Cahors

A town steeped in history, going back to pre-Roman times, with many buildings of interest including the medieval fortified bridge spanning the Lot river.

Market: Wednesday and Saturday mornings in Boulevard Gambetta

Gouffre de Padirac

A remarkable natural phenomenom. A short boat ride on an underground river, followed by a narrow passage and an ascent of man-made steps leads you to a vast cathedral-like cavern, the dome of which is over 90m high.

Grotte du Pech-Merle

3km W of the village of Caberets lie these remarkable prehistoric caves. Over 3km of linked galleries contain weirdly shaped limestone formations and prehistoric paintings, drawings and paintings of bison, mammoths, horses and outlined hands.

St. Céré

Sleepy town overlooked by feudal castle ruins and surrounded by stunning woodland.

Market: Saturday mornings.

Craft fair on 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month throughout the summer

Puy l’Eveque

Very pretty Lot village built on hill – famous for its wines. Old houses in golden stone rise in tiers to the church, once part of the town’s defences.
