We are in the heart of the Perigord Noir. The land of foie gras, pate, confit, black truffles and poire William. We fell in love with the medieval architechture and ambience of the Dordogne. We have had this property for over 20 years now and the light and beauty still amazes me. There are abundant opportunities for adventure and to learn. Swimming in the river and the canoe trip is my favorite. There is even opportunity to take a hot air balloon ride over the many castles of the area. The company is located in La Roque Gageac. Market days for Sarlat are Saturday and Wednesday. The little Eglise de Carsac just down the road is perfect. It has a sculpture by Gerard Auliac who used to live in Montfort. His studio is in a small cave under the castle. His most famous sculpture is "The Onlooker", the bronze boy who sits in the center of Sarlat. We hope you enjoy this gem of a location as much as we do.

There is a bakery ‘Margot’, and restaurant ‘Le Centenaire’ just a short walk to the village (3-5 minutes). The Grand Randonee runs right by the property. Golf is possible at Rochebois less than a kilometer away. Vitrac Port offers swimming, restaurants and canoe rentals where you can glide downstream by some of the Dordogne's most famous sites. The company will pick you and the canoe up after your adventure. You will sail by the cliff village of Le Roque Gageac, Castleneau, Domme,Les Milandes, and Beynac. All of these great medieval sites are 5-10 minutes drive from the house. Castleneau has a medieval weapons museum complete with catapults and suits of armor. Les Milandes is fairy tale- like and once owned by Josephine Baker. It has the story of her life and also a bird of prey show with several species exhibited. Domme is an authentic bastide town with its own cave and cobblestone streets to visit. Beynac, one of the most formidable castles in the Dordogne is a striking sight. Lascaux and several other prehistoric sites are between 20-40 minutes away. Sarlat the medieval jewel of the area has all services and a Tourist Office. A new centre commercial LeClerc is 5 minutes away.
