delightful architecture and the historic Valentré
bridge built in the 14th century is today a
UNESCO World Heritage Site. Sit back with a
glass of local wine in a pavement cafe and enjoy
a perfect view of the Valentré Bridge from the
pretty riverbank.
The cliff side village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie is
among the most remarkable sights in France.
Perched high on the edge of the cliff face the
beautiful flower-filled narrow streets of the
village are lined with craft workshops and art
galleries.
Sarlat-la-Canéda is home to one of the
Dordogne’s best markets and on market day the
pretty town square will be a sea of activity selling
local produce and gifts from the area. Explore the
nearby streets to discover many delights.
The pretty village of Beynac spreads along the
northern bank of the Dordogne river. Guarded
by its castle, the quaint village lanes wind
towards the village square with its traditional
white and yellow stone buildings.
Our fully guided boat trip along the River
Dordogne, reveals castles and wonderful
landscapes that provide a highpoint to the
holiday.
Historic Domme is entered by an impressive
fortified gate, with huge towers either side of the
entrance which once housed Templar prisoners
during the 14th century. Such history combined
with pleasant shops and cafes ensure Domme
lives long in your memory.
