Location
About the surrounding area of Chateau De LavezonThe beautiful Château De Lavezon sits overlooking the Aveyron Valley. The region is filled with enchanting medieval villages and historic towns to discover. With excellent food and outdoor activities including hiking and sports, there really is something for everyone. The village of La Fouillade is just a few kilometres away, with a delicious bakery, post office for convenience, supermarket, butcher, and more. In fact, you can find most conveniences within a short drive of the château, perfect for picking up the bits and bobs you need during your stay.
Whilst the surrounding nature is beautiful, Les Jardins de Quercy are enchanting and are well worth a visit during your stay. Just a thirty-minute drive away, you can spend hours exploring the vibrant colours and natural wonders of the gardens.
From markets to concerts, the charming streets of Najac, which is only 10km away, come alive through the summer months. Known as one of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’, every street is incredibly picturesque, with medieval architecture, a village château and luscious greenery in every direction you look.
Saint-Antonin Noble Val, 35 kilometres away, is another great place to visit. Rich in history, the town has a popular Sunday morning market that we would recommend. From the town you can hire canoes and kayaks, exploring the breath-taking Aveyron gorges from a different angle. For an adrenaline rush, you can try caving and climbing, as well as mountain biking and tree-top trails!
Surrounded by nature, this region is perfect for outdoor adventures. Whether you enjoy mountain biking, hiking, walking or taking a picnic, the scenery is stunning, making every activity feel special. The region’s lakes and river beaches are brilliant choices for picnics, whilst experienced hikers can follow the famous Chemin de St Jacques which passes to the north. Cycling is extremely popular, although the area is very hilly, so be wary if you are not an experienced cyclist! For golf lovers, there is a 9 hole golf course in Villefranche de Rouergue about 15km away.

Region
A relatively new addition to France, the Midi-Pyrénées was created to surround the cultural capital of Toulouse in the late 1970s. You might think that its relative youth would mean the Midi-Pyrénées is short on character or identity, but remember, this is France we’re talking about – the whole country is steeped in history and tradition. Encompassing parts of Gascony, Languedoc, the Gers and several others, you’ll get a varied slice of the whole French experience here, not least if you stay at one of our beautiful chateaux in the Midi-Pyrénées! And if you want to discover the best of what the region has to offer, our Midi-Pyrénées travel guide is here to show you where to go, what to eat and how you can make the best of your break with some amazing activities.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThe charms and unique character of Château De Lavezon make it as enchanting to kids as it is to the adults! With an infinity swimming pool, tennis court, table tennis table, basketball hoop, football cage and trampoline all at your disposal, kids will be in heaven, galivanting between every corner of entertainment and loosing hours to splashy fun in the pool. There is plenty of space both inside and out for kids to play games of hide and seek, to run and play and to make themselves at home.
Picnics are one of our favourite family activities in the area, with endless spots in the countryside, in pretty villages and along the region’s lakes and river beaches. Along the river you will spot plenty of places to hire kayaks and canoes, exploring the beautiful Aveyron river which passes through places such as Najac, Cazals, Penne and Féneyrols. Saint-Antonin Noble Val is especially popular for canoeing beside the Aveyron gorges as well as opportunities for caving, climbing, mountain biking and tree-top trails.
The tree-top adventures in Najac are an easy win for an afternoon of activities. With options for kids over the age of 3, or over one metre in height, kids will love the sense of adventure among the branches. The courses vary in difficulty, so older kids can build up to the more challenging courses, whilst younger kids can enjoy the delights and fun of the simpler adventures.
The region is also extremely popular among cyclists, so cycling is a great way to explore as a family. There are trails to follow suited to all-levels, following the rivers, hills, and woodlands, so you can take in the spectacular scenery along the way! You can bring your own bikes with you, or hire them in the area.
