Beynac street

This area seems to have a castle or chateau around every corner.

All along the river valley you will find villages built right up to the cliffs.

There are plenty of places to stay in the area we stayed in a Gite in the nearby town of Bergerac.

This Gite in the village of Daglan looked very nice

This stone house with exposed beams offers charm and comfort and is located in the most sought after area of the Dordogne.

Sarlat, the Chateaux of Beynac and Castelnaud, the Bastide of Domme and Roque Gageac with river beaches are all within 20km.

The main garden area to the front of the house has a lawned area which contains a covered area ideal for eating outdoors.
