In Amongst the Vineyards at Le Caillau


Friday we travelled to Vire sur Lot to one of our favourite restaurants "Le Caillau" set in the most idyllic surroundings ... Full of old world charm and character in the middle of the vineyards.



It is always a must on our itinerary when we travel to this area of France. 
We have enjoyed many meals here over the past three years and last year we attended a "Musical Soirée"... an evening of music, great food and wine listening to the Rogues (a Celtic group)

The fountain come garden in the Center of the courtyard ...







We enjoyed a delicious lunch with good friends ... I like to call us "The United Nations Friends" ...  us being the Canadians, our Belgian expat and English expat friends who are now living in France.





We then travelled to our English "French Connection" friends' home for a short visit ... their home is also set  in the vineyards.





Now I will put in a plug for Le Caillau ...if you are in the area you should go stop by ... whether it is  for a coffee and something sweet from the cake counter, lunch or dinner or just a glass of wine and nibbles sitting under the shade of the umbrellas in the courtyard ... Sit, relax and enjoy the surroundings.
