Belcastel

It made the list of "un des plus beaux villages de France", I'm not sure why it hasn't made our list before. A castle, cobblestone streets, artists' shops, at least one restaurant, an ancient stone bridge over the Aveyron river (hard to believe you can drive on it), and pic-nick tables on the grassy banks. A postcard place if ever there was one.

I have been to Belcastel a couple of times, and eaten at both restaurants. The one star is superb and I am booked there again Oct 2010. This town is small, well maintained, almost traffic free, and worth the sidetrip from the house.
