The Bastides – centuries-old towns with arched central squares. The nearest are Eymet, Ste Foy la Grande and Monségur.
The Dordogne and its châteaux at Beynac, Biron, amongst others.
Markets – including the favourite on Sunday morning at Issigeac. A perfect mix of wine, fruit, vegetables and local produce, a bit of bric-a-brac and other delights within the beautiful mediaeval town. Producers' Markets - Sunday mornings under the lime trees in Soumensac! From early July until the end of August join the locals for lunch at long trestle tables with a view to the Pyrenees to die for. Stall holders from the area with wine, duck, salads, frites, raspberries - even snails. Unforgettable!
