The Region

Your French fairytale is situated just between Bordeaux and Toulouse outside the city of Bergerac in the Dordogne Region of Southwestern France. The area is famous for its gorgeous landscapes, 5-star vineyards, and culture rich with historical ties. The activities you might enrich yourself with are vast and explorative. From wandering through castles or trekking the local villages to walking the Zen gardens or frolicking through hundreds of acres of protected woodlands, there are absolutely endless ways to connect directly with rich history of France and Mother Nature, simultaneously.

Perhaps you want to get directly into the thick of action and really get your feet wet or your hands dirty— we’ve got you covered. Just over the rolling hills lies the river, suited perfectly for kayaking & canoeing in the water, or hiking & horseback riding beside it. The local villages are plenty and offer a variety of adventures. Enlightenment is at your fingertips in Plume Village, where you can be guided through meditation by local Buddhist Monks. The artisan encrusted Sarlat is situated for the most idyllic daytrip to their local markets with organic and sustainably sourced farm fresh foods. These little tidbits just begin to touch on the many offerings available to you during your week-long stay, nestled in the foothills of the most coveted corners of France.
