The appartment is part of a traditional French manor, situated in a sheltered side valley of the Dordogne River. The closest amenities are just five minutes’ drive away in La Roque-Gageac. The mansion was built in the 19th century, and since used by four generations of the same family. The Dordogne River, with its good quality swimming water and nice little sand beach, is just 1 km away.
Certainly worth visiting are the neighbouring historic villages of Domme and Sarlat as are the slightly more remote pittoresque towns of Beynac en Bergerac. 
Castles are everywhere: Beynac, Fayrac, Castelnaud, Monfort. The fortress of Castelnaud, illuminated at night, is viewed directly from the terrace of the appartement. The landscape is characterised by steep cliffs and gentle wooded hills, with an unusually high chance of bright sunshine. Don't forget to visit the many wonderful caves, monuments of European stone-age culture.
The second Sunday of August is the village's Patron's Feast with a fair and magnificent fireworks.
Sarlat has a weekly market and many additional events. The town of Domme offers a beautiful view of the entire region and the course of the Dordogne River. This is the site to rent canoes an kayaks.
