Location in France

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.
