Maison Forte de Reignac and village St Léon sur Vézère

 La Maison Forte de Reignac, a fascinating house built into the cliff, oozes history and intrigue ....

Beynac Castle & Sarlat Market

Driving alongside the winding river of the Dordogne is incredible but suddenly seeing this imposing castle towering over the valley has such an impact that it quite simply took my breath away. 

Chateau de Castelnaud and Sarlat

If you are in the Dordogne area with kids (including big kids like me), one place you must visit is Chateau de Castelnaud. 

Cénac et St Julien, Dordogne, France

With winter now upon us and an icy blast forecast for next week, my thoughts keep heading back to the lighter, warmer days of last summer and my trip to the Dordogne.

It was the first time I had ever visited the region and I was taken aback by how gorgeous it is.
