The medieval town of Sarlat
The town of Sarlat, located about 20 minutes from the cottage, is one of the most beautiful medieval towns in France. The town is famous for its historic golden stone buildings, narrow streets, and numerous cafes and restaurants. We recommend visiting the local market, held every Saturday, to discover the region's culinary specialties.

The Dordogne region is famous for its exceptional castles, and our guest house is ideally located to explore some of the best. Some must-see castles include Chateau de Beynac, Chateau de Castelnaud and Chateau de Milandes, where you can learn about the region's fascinating history.
The Lascaux Caves and the Vézère Valley
The Vézère Valley is famous for its prehistoric caves, notably the famous Grottes de Lascaux. We recommend visiting the caves to see the fascinating prehistoric paintings, which date back over 17,000 years. You can also visit the National Museum of Prehistory located in the village of Les Eyzies to learn more about the prehistory of the region. The village of Les Eyzies is considered the world capital of prehistory.
