The Cantal is a department in the south west section of the Auvergne region and forms
part of the Massif Central. It is an exciting and diverse department.
The south of Cantal borders the Lot and Averyon (Midi Pyrenees) and Corrèze
(Limousin) and therefore benefits from long warm springs going into the hot summers
and long warm autumns with short winters and even in December temperatures can reach
up to 20°C mid-day.
Aurillac is the capital of Cantal and boasts a very attractive medieval quarter, a regular
train service leading to all of France including Paris and a direct daily flight to Paris.
From Aurillac heading north the road will lead you quickly through to the famous
mountains of the Cantal which are extinct volcanoes where the winters tend to be longer
and colder. These mountains are stunning, reaching to heights of almost 2,000 metres
and where the weather station for Aurillac can be found along with excellent skiing and
winter sports during the winter months.
Cantal is also a very popular holiday destination and well worth considering if you are
wishing to offer holiday accommodation such as a bed and breakfast establishment or
gîtes, because of the many varied activities that can be found from golf courses, hiking,
walking, paragliding, horse riding, mountain biking, cycling, waters sports in the rivers
and lakes as well as white water kayaking through the wild river gorges, working cheese
farms and museums to visit and the historic medieval towns of Salers steeped in history
and famous for its cows and cheese, nearby Tournamire one of the most beautiful villages
in France.
Rodez, Limoges and Brive international airports are all within 1 ½ hours drive. There
are regular train services throughout Cantal leading to all the large towns and cities in
France.
The department is becoming popular with international buyers thanks to its stunning
scenery, medieval towns, mountains, rivers and valleys, woodlands, working farms,
chateaux, lakes, vibrant towns with weekly markets yet properties with bags of character
and charm are still available at reasonable prices.
