The Region

Villebois-Lavalette: Latry is next door to this magnificent château with a prestigious history. You should not miss taking the guided tour of the village and château organized by the Tourist Information Office of Villebois. And kill two birds with one stone by visiting also Le Château de la Mercerie, a “Versaillesque” folly born out of 2 brothers’ passionate love for the architecture of the Grand Siècle!
Aubeterre-sur-Dronne: It has been granted the much sought after title of “One of the most beautiful villages in France” and its reputation is well-deserved. You will be able to spend the day there since after the visit of the village, the monolithic church..., you will be able to choose from a whole range of restaurants. More enclined towards a family outing, you can have a picnic by the river, go canoeing or take the kiddies to the lovely beach on the river.
Angoulême: Rich of its international reputation as the capital of “Bande Dessinée” ((comic strip/cartoons) this city has much to offer: museums, romanesque architecture, restaurants, medieval old town, shopping...
Cognac: Yes, it is also the name of the city! Go for a visit of the greatest names’ cellars: Otard, Hennessy, Martell... but do not forget the little producers who will share their treasures with you!
Brantôme:It is the “Venice” of the périgord! Pay a visit to this charming Dordogne town, we are neighbours!
Ribérac: A real market town as they used to be! The Ribérac market in Dordogne, held every Friday, attracts people from all over the department
