Nested in the valley of the river Jordanne, the plots are incredibly numerous, exuberant of colours, little streams, of course of vegetables and fruits, secret passages and little cabins, it is always a delight to be in contact with the fruitful soil in such a place.

The discoveries are often very interesting in this huge ancient stable built in the 19th century and transformed into a place for exhibitions of contemporary art.

Aurillac / Shop

Every time I need inspiration for a present for friends or family, I go to this store and inevitably discover something intriguing, exciting and unique. Books, clothes, luxurious old fabrics, bizarre little objects, and a lovely owner whose passion for antiques is communicative.

Aurillac / Restaurant

I love this tiny but refined restaurant. The cook and owner is generous and passionate, he likes to spend some time within the tables and share some truculent tales with the clients. The products are mainly from the local area and the wine cellar is excellent.

This place is dedicated to art and creation and harbors studios for illustration, clothes, terracotta, potery, leather...
