LaJaspellerie is ideally situated with easy access to the beautiful Dordogne valley (Sarlat, Domme, Roque Gageac) as well as spectacular Rocamadour. The hill-top town of Gourdon is circa 10km away and has all amenities.
The surrounding countryside is rolling hills dotted with picturesque villages built in traditional stone. There are a large number of local restuarants ranging from Michelin rosetted (Chateau de la Treyne and Pont de l'Ouysee at Lacave) to rustic 'ferme auberges'.
If you tire of the pool, the area is particularly well suited to families with a host of attractions for children from the amazing Gouffre de Padirac with its underground river, to the Quercyland water-park at Souillac or canoeing on the Dordogne, horse-riding or cycling on the dedicated track from Souillac to Sarlat.
The Dordogne area is well appointed for tourists with an eclectic range of attractions for the whole family (a detailed list of recommendations is provided in LaJaspellerie).
