Accommodation in Quercy

Oasis du Quercy 

- the Tuscany of France 

Tucked away in the heart of Quercy Blanc, France, yet easily accessible from nearby medieval villages, the Oasis du Quercy offers an authentic and rejuvenating retreat in a beautifully renovated stone barn.

Surrounded by nature, this serene hideaway is perfect for creativity and writing. Deer often wander in the garden, and at night the soft 'hoo, hoo' of owls lull you to sleep. A large salt-water pool is available to unwind in under the late Spring/early Summer sun.  

In collaboration with local chefs, you'll be treated to a gastronomic experience that celebrates the region's seasonal ingredients. The writing programme leaves time to explore and enjoy local highlights.

Oasis du Quercy is just a few kilometres from the fortified villages of Tornon-d'Agenais and Roquecor, and a short drive from the picturesque hilltop towns of Lauzerte, Montcuq, and Montaigu-de-Quercy. Nearby lakes invite you for a spring swim, and the region is a paradise for walkers and hikers. The Chateau de Montaigu is within walking distance and the Camino de Santiago trail passes close by.

Agen train station is 45 minutes away, and Toulouse is just 1.5 hours by car.
