Dordogne Design have launched yet another Dordogne Web site. http://www.thedordogne.com/ is a web site that will take you on an image tour of the Dordogne.

The Dordogne region of South West France is without doubt the most beautiful and diverse region of France and the world. It is here in the Dordogne, the Vezere Valley that our ancestors chose to settle more than 450.000 years ago. It is here that the link between Prehistoric Man and Modern Man was discovered.
But the Dordogne is not just famous for it’s Prehistoric treasures such as Lascaux and Font de Gaume, the Dordogne is also famous for Medieval towns and villages, such as Sarlat, Beyac and Domme, Medieval strongholds, cloisters bastides and lots of other amazing attractions.
The Dordogne should be on everyones wishlist.

This site was made possible thanks to the dedication of a few people to promote the beautiful Dordogne region. Please take the time to visit their websites.

  • B&B Ferme de Tayac, for 3 years now, this B&B in a 12th century former farmhouse / monastery in the heart of the Vezere Valley, has been voted the travellers choice of accommodation.http://www.fermedetayac.com/

  • Walking Dordogne has been taking the very lucky few visitors to places in the Dordogne we can only dream of.
