Villefranche De Rouergue Guide

Guide

Villefranche De Rouergue is not a typical tourist town. In fact, there's not a craft shop to be seen. It is most likely the closest to a typical French provincial village that you'll find. Situated on the Ayeyron River, it has a small community that lies approximately 37 miles (60kms) east of Cahors and 22 miles (35kms) south of Figeac.

Rue de la Republique, the town's main street, leads to Place Notre-Dame, the most picturesque central square in the region. On the east side of the square stands the church of Notre-Dame, boasting a 60m high bell tower. Its interior features several fine stained-glass windows dating from the 15th century, and carved wooden choir stalls.

On the ground floor all of the town's houses are arcaded, and it's from these shops that a weekly market, held on Thursday mornings, is held. This is when farmers come together with local merchants to sell their goods. The houses are tall and ornate, most notably the Maison du President Raynal.

The centre is quite compact, so getting around on foot is a good option. Public transportation is also available, but limited and consists of local buses operating on limited schedules. Hiring a car online beforehand will ensure that you're able to visit the attractions outside the centre.

At the northern edge of the old town, you'll come to the Chapelle des Penitents-Noirs, with its painted Baroque ceiling, dating from the 17th century. Also worth a visit is the 15th century Chartreuse St-Sauveur: this church is less than a mile from town on the Gaillac road.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is Carrentals.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?
