General Information: The towns of the Dordogne offer many events throughout the year and most have a weekly market. The bastide towns of Bergerac, St Foy La Grande and Eymet are of particular interest. There are many excellent restaurants in the area catering for all tastes and budgets. Touring is a pleasure with such splendid scenery and quiet roads. Walks are available direct from the house with maps displayed by the village church. Fishing is also available in the region. There are several golf courses in the area and the nearest is Chateau Des Vigiers.

Wines: The villa is located in the main wine growing area for the Bergerac wines. There is a 'Route de Vins' through the region where visits can be made to the local vineyards to taste the local produce.

Activities: There are plenty of things to do in the area although some activities are seasonal. The Dordogne is full of wonderful towns and villages to visit, numerous chateaux to see, pre-historic caves to explore, and of course the river itself. The Dordogne has many beautiful views, numerous riverside restaurants and why not hire a canoe for a trip on the river itself. Other activities within thirty minutes drive include ten pin bowling, go-karting, mountain biking, evening markets, organised walks, and horse-riding.

Change-Over: We can normally be flexible with regard to change over day.
