Leisure facilities in and around Maison Rose

Close to Maison Rose, just through the town of Verteilac, there is a very good horse riding school, details of which you will find in the 'HOUSE NOTES' on your arrival at Maison Rose. If you want to take out a canoe for a leisurely afternoon, pop down to Brantome. The River Dronne surrounds Brantome, making it an island and accessible by a couple of small bridges. The picturesque uncrowded river banks offer some lovely spots for a picnic where you can sit and watch the wild life and canoes passing. Better still, hire one yourself and take a leisurely cruise down the river, which is quite safe, slow moving and shallow. There are many restaurants and shops to while away your time all within short walk of each other, and parking is hardly ever a problem. Alternatively explore some of the prehistoric caves, or the ancient Brantome Abbey built into the rocks. A short drive away is the town of Aubeterre with its monolithic church of Saint-Jean of Aubeterre - quite unique.

Surrounding area

* Immediately surrounding Maison Rose is mainly farmland and woods. One of our close neighbouring properties raise deer, which you will normally see on your drive into the town of Mareuil, or even on your arrival to Maison Rose. * GROTTE DE VILLARS – situated about 40 minutes drive from Maison Rose, and a brilliantly interesting place to visit for all ages. This is the largest underground network in the Perigord, with more than 13 kms explored up to this day. The tour starts with a 20 minute video, designed to help you understand the geological phenomena and to make the visit unforgettable, followed by a guided tour through beautiful underground scenery, showing impressive flows of calcite deposits, delicate stalactites, unusual calcite formations looking like fonts, transparent draperies and countless stalagmites. In total, the tour and video show last for about just over an hour. As at summer 2008, admission is adults €7.00 and €4.50 for children (children under 10 go free).
