About the Location
AREA
Dramatic rock faces, sparkling rivers, green valleys, Chateaux, Medieval villages, prehistoric caves and brilliant sunlight. The Dordogne, the very heart of Perigord has been described by some as paradise. As you pass fields of sunflowers and corn and marvel at castles towering at the top of cliffs you begin to understand why!
The region surrounding ‘Le Banquet’ is dominated by pre-history, beautiful architecture and gastronomy. The local markets are full to brimming with some of the best produce France has to offer. Whether you wish to visit the local caves with their drawings dating back 20,000 years, picnic by the banks of the Vezere river, taste the excellent wines from Bergerac, Cahors and surround or canoe and perhaps fish, ‘Le Banquet’ is at the very heart of it all.
If you are a food lover, then welcome to gastronomic heaven! Ceps, truffles and Foie Gras are all readily available as are the freshest vegetables, herbs, meat, poultry and game. Simply visit one of the many local markets to stock up on good things to prepare back in your cottage kitchen.
If you prefer to eat out, Les Eyzies and the surrounding area has many excellent restaurants.
ACTIVITIES
From golf to horse riding, biking, canoeing or fishing, the Dordogne has something to offer everyone.
Canoes and kayaks are available to hire along the banks of the Dordogne and Vezere rivers. Being wide and generally shallow, both rivers can be enjoyed whether you are a beginner or a skilled amateur.
For golfers there are good courses in the area. The course at Le Bugue is 18 holes and is just 15 kilometres from ‘Le Banquet’. Tennis lovers can use the local municipal courts in Les Eyzies.
If you enjoy hiking, then the area has some tremendous walks with breathtaking scenery. Come in the autumn and you may well discover wild mushrooms as you trek.
If you are an angler, there are plentiful rivers and lakes in which to fish. From Chub to Carp almost all types of fish can be caught, indeed the pretty river which runs through ‘Le Banquet’ contains Trout and Roach
