Our gites and studio are situated in the middle of the vineyards of the famous Bergerac wines, in the department Dordogne. This department is part of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. This region, in the southwest of France, is known for its rich cultural and natural heritage, with its cities, its buildings, its castles and spectacular landscapes. These will be a constant source of inspiration during your stay in the region. This region full of character has made its name thanks to its vineyards and its gastronomy. Due to its particular geographical location, it enjoys an oceanic climate. The climate is mild with plenty of sunshine.

The Dordogne:
With its impressive fortified villages, ancient castles, charming villages and prehistoric caves, the Dordogne has managed to preserve its heritage! Here, you are also in a region where gastronomy and the art of living are central and where wine, foie gras and local products have a special place!

Bordeaux:
A visit to the city of Bordeaux is, of course, also very much worthwhile. In less than an hour, you are in the middle of this beautiful city. Bordeaux is, among other things, known for its wine museum (Cité du Vin), and its beautifully renovated centre with nice shops and restaurants. Bordeaux is easy to reach by car as well as by train.

Gastronomy:
The flavours of our region will delight the taste buds of young and old! Enjoy its quality products; truffles, oysters, mussels, mushrooms, prunes... or foie gras, the most famous local speciality of the region.
Try a delicious cassoulet, duck confit, almond biscuits and/or the cannelés de Bordeaux. You will remember these dishes with their unique flavours for a long time.

Oenology:
Come and discover the secrets of the vineyard and wine during tasting visits to the numerous wine estates. The famous wine chateaux of St. Emilion and Pomerol are also just a stone's throw away.
