Useful shops upon arrival

Prayssac is the closest for a good choice of shops. It has numerous bakeries, butchers and fishmongers. It also has a small store in the square.

There is a large Carrefour and hidden round the back on the cinema road is another supermarket, both have petrol stations.(please note they close for lunch and both are open on Sunday mornings in the summer)

There are two pharmacies in Prayssac and there is a tabac and newsagents both situated in the square.

There is also a post office and a couple of banks with cash points.

Bakeries can also be found in Castlefranc and La Bastide (very popular with the locals so get there early) both are open seven days a week during the summer months.

Internet access is available in Praysacc and in a wonderful cafe in Lherm.
