The Dordogne is known for its 1001 castles, the Lascaux cave and the town of Sarlat. Your first stays will be devoted to unmissable visits: the gardens of Marqueyssac, the Château de Castelnaud or the town of Bergerac, but you will inevitably come back! If you love our region, it is also for its gastronomy, its picturesque villages and its unusual places.

Les Eyzies, the medieval castle par excellence!
Very close to the prehistoric caves of Les Eyzies, don't miss the activities offered by the castle in the summer.

Gastronomy in Périgord, a delight!
