The Bergerac area is often referred to as the Gateway to the Perigord as many visitors use it as a base from which to plan their stay in Dordogne. All visitors are offered a superb choice of attractions, many of which are distinctive to this corner of south west France.
Bergerac itself is a modern attractive town which offers a wide range of restaurants and many quaint traditional cafes. Nestled on a riverbank, at the heart of a wine producing area, it boasts interesting reminders of its past and offers easy access to the surrounding countryside and many famous wine producers.
PLACES TO VISIT:
Monbazillac. 6 km. Surrounded by the vineyards which carry its name, the town overlooks the huge plain of the Dordogne Valley. Its 16th century castle is a listed historical monument and of course has a cave where you can sample the wines, and plenty of opportunities to purchase some.
Lalinde. 20 km. First English bastide, founded in 1267 by Henry III Plantagenet, Lalinde boasts several listed buildings and owes much of its charm to the Dordogne River and canal.
Eymet. 25 km. Attractive bastide town on the banks of the Dropt river, with a thriving market square and lovely bridge over the river.
Beaumont du Perigord. 30 km. Lively and attractive bastide town with 13th century church and various examples of medieval buildings.

Jardin de Planbuisson, Le Buisson de Cadouin. 40 km. Fabulous garden, almost entirely made up of bamboos and grasses, displaying the enormous range and versatility of both. With over 600 species of bamboo and grasses, it is the largest of such collection in Europe.
Grottes de Lascaux. 80 km. World famous caves boasting paintings estimated to be from around 19,000 years ago. Open to the public after WWII but closed in 1963 because the paintings were being damaged by the carbon dioxide produced by thousands of visitors.

The word “Aquitaine“ is of Latin origin and means “land of water“. The ocean, countless lakes and three huge rivers tell us that the Romans' impression of the region is equally valid today. 250 kilometres of ocean coastline, Aquitaine has quite simply Europe's biggest beach of fine sand. This vast coastline is also home to a great many boating harbours and seaside resorts, from the beaches of the Médoc in the north to those of the Basque Coast on the Spanish border, via the shores of the Landes region. Aquitane is also a wine-growing area of worldwide reputation, the vineyards of Bordeaux produce Margaux, Medoc, Sauterne, and Saint-Emilion wines which are leading examples. The region abounds with time-honored recipes and new cuisine, with local specialties like truffles and foie gras to whet the appetite. Quality, price, and pleasure are the key words of promise in Aquitaine.
