Map & local information

The property is located off a small track, 3 km from the village of St Martial de Nabirat with its boulangerie, restaurant and basic shopping facilities. 10 km from Gourdon which has supermarkets, restaurants, bars and a local farmers market.

Further shops, supermarket and many more restaurants / café bars etc in Sarlat-la-Canéda, 20 min. Sarlat-le-Canéda is a very popular tourist destination; a charming and busy traditional village with all amenities which is the capital of Perigord Noir. Lots of 15th and 16th century houses make this a very picturesque place and there are many good restaurants and cafés to discover. Excellent market on Saturday.

Don't miss a trip to La Roque-Gageac, a stunningly beautiful village under the towering cliffs. The village regularly wins France's 'Prettiest Village' competition. Good canoeing centre here.

Competing with La Roque-Gageac in the prettiness stakes is the village of Carennac. Elevated just above the south bank of the river, it is best known for its typical Quercy architecture and Romanesque priory. Further Romanesque art at the St Pierre church in Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne.

Perhaps the most famous of the Dordogne tourist attractions are the cave paintings around Les Eyzies. There are more pre-historic caves in this area than you could ever visit in a day! Les Eyzies lies at the heart of an unspoilt area of great natural beauty with rolling hills, tranquil rivers and fascinating cliff and rock formations. It has some of the world's most beautiful caves with outstanding stalactite and stalagmite crystallizations. And the cave-lined Vézère valley has been classified as a heritage site by UNESCO. The most well-known of all is the cave at Lascaux which was discovered in 1940. The paintings date back some 17,000 years.

Brantome is a very popular and pretty town. Well worth a visit, there are several churches and abbeys to discover as well as the Musée de Reve et Miniatures. Perhaps the best thing to do in the town is to firstly take a stroll along the beautiful balustraded river banks and then to choose your evening fayre at one of the many excellent restaurants.

Just north of Brantome is the hamlet of Villars. The hamlet itself is unexciting, but it is surrounded by lovely countryside and is a great base from which to explore Château de Puyguilhem and St Jean de Cole. The Grottes de Villars (pre-historic caves) are just past the hamlet and were discovered in 1958 and feature cave paintings.

Canoeing on the Dordogne is hugely popular. There are rental centres on almost every curve and corner of the river. Some of the bigger centres are based at La Roque-Gageac, Martel, Argentat and Beynac.

Client comments

"We had a fantastic break in the Dordogne, using the farmhouse as a base. It was so much more beautiful than the pictures could ever justify. The house was perfect, the garden outstanding. It really was quiet - the perfect retreat!
The pool was delightful to sit around, if not too cold mid - September - or maybe I should have braved a dip?
We met the owners on the first day - they couldn’t have been of more assistance! Lovely family!
A good, honest escape to a classic, rural, picturesque part of France."

"I would like to thank you on behalf of myself and my family for a lovely stay at the Cassignac Farmhouse from the 6th – 13th June. We arrived to an immaculate house with all the amenities we could have required. We had a thoroughly enjoyable time exploring the nearby sites but also spending time relaxing (as much as you can relax with 3 children) around the house.
Full credit goes to the owners who are obviously very proud of their accommodation and did an excellent job of making us feel very welcome.
We would highly recommend this property to other visitors and hope to return again soon."
