Our accommodation in Montcabrier, set in the Lot department of the Occitanie region next to the Nouvelle Aquitaine, provides an ideal base for exploring the Lot Valley, the Dordogne and Lot-et-Garonne.

Artist’s and writer’s retreats and residencies have been a part of Atelier de la Rose for some 25 years. Our artist-in-residence service is for amateurs and professionals alike. A residency is a creative break that lasts from one to six weeks.  A retreat is for those who only have a few days to spare.

Montcabrier is a small bastide, one of the medieval new towns of the southwest. Its buildings of rose-ochre limestone have a distinctive character and charm. The property is situated facing, on one side, the village square and, on the other side, the surrounding woodland.

The 13th century village and our modern facilities combine to make Atelier de la Rose a special place to stay.

You will also find that our personal and flexible service is unique. Even a short break can provide a refreshing balance of discovery and relaxation.

Atelier de la Rose can also be a base from which you can enjoy some of the many village fairs, markets, festivals and concerts in the Lot.

We are open all year.
