The house and its local surroundings

The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Dordogne region

Fongrive is situated on a country lane just outside the the hamlet of Thenac in the south west Dordogne. The countryside around the house is noted for its rolling hills cultivated with vines and plum trees and dotted with Chateaux and Bastide Towns. The house has lovely, extensive views to the south, east and west.

The nearest large village is Sigoules with a bakery, supermarket, chemist, hairdressers, post office and doctors’ surgery. There is a wine festival in Sigoules that usually takes place in the second week of July.

The towns of Bergerac, Eymet, Duras and St Foy La Grande are all close by.
