Situated just 8km from Beaulieu sur Dordogne , a busy market town on the banks of the Dordogne River with twice weekly market, bars and restaurants. A mere 15 minutes drive takes you to villages, chateaux, caves and of course the Dordogne River. To the west is Collonges-le Rouge, the 'city of little castles', and Turenne, a 15th century village whose high pitched roofs surround two castles from which the foothills of the Massif Central can be seen. To the south and east is the Dordogne valley, with a wealth of villages such as Loubressac, Autoire, Carennac and Martel. The Chateaux of Castelnau, Belcastel and Montal are all close by, while the citadel of Rocamadour is only 30 minutes drive away. For those wishing to explore a little further afield, the world famous Lascaux caves can be reached in an hour, along with the many other attractions of the Lower Dordogne area. The Cahors and Bordeaux wine regions are also within easy reach.
