Availability can also be found on the prices page. We also have Skype: spotinfrance but it is probably better to email us to make a time to talk first. When not in France we are based in Melbourne, Australia.

Other useful contacts (for travellers and artists)

We have found that it is often better to break the plane flight to Europe with a stop of a few days in Asia or North America. Star Alliance has a special fare for little more than the usual discount economy fare which allows access to more than just Singapore or Bangkok, and includes Hong Kong and Japan. Other carriers also offer stops via certain other places which can add to the interest of your trip to the cottage in France. If you fly into Frankfurt or Munich with Star Alliance a trip to Toulouse is included in the fare and you do not have the hassle of changing airports. Within Europe there are plenty of countries to visit beyond France and Italy, while they may not be so rich in treasures of the past, none the less can provide unexpected interest. A round-the-world ticket can give you amazing access.

If you are interested in buying real estate in the Lot, France while you are staying at the gite, there is a very good real estate agent (where English is spoken), or immobilier as it is known in France, in the village. They are most helpful and cover quite a wide area.
