Accommodations in or near St-Cirq-Lapopie or Cahors

Posted by (SF Bay Area) on

I am interested in recommendations for accommodations in or near St-Cirq-Lapopie for two nights in mid-October. From reading reviews, it seems like parking is a challenge due to the hilliness of the town--please comment on that if you have a recommendation. We will only have carry-on luggage, but wonder if it's possible to drop it off near accommodations if there is no parking onsite. Another option would be to stay in Cahors, so I'm also open to suggestions there.

After the Lot River Valley, we plan to spend 5 nights in the Dordogne, probably in Sarlat.

Thank you in advance.

We've stayed twice at Auberge du Sombral in St-Cirq-lapopie and liked it. It's been several years since our last stay there, but they did let us drive down to the Inn to unload luggage before we had to move the car. It was only a short walk up to where we had to park.

It may not be luxurious enough for you, but since you will be in the Dordogne, a very rural area, see "La Paysannerie des Versanes".
It is less than 2km from St Cirq. A cottage run by farmers (in organic farming).
And you will have farm products for breakfast.
It's less than 80€/night

Or, something more chic (twice as expensive) but very good too:

Thank you all for the recommendations. I've looked at them and any of them would work great! We just need to make our final decision and book.

In mid October you're not going to be dealing with high tourist season and thus are not going to be dealing with any sort of parking issues in Saint-Cirq-Lapopie or anywhere else in France. It's a tiny village so of course accommodation in town is necessarily going to be limited but at this time of year you'll have no problem finding/booking accommodation in the area and checking the local tourist office websites or basic google searches will yield plenty of options:
