The Aquitaine / Dordogne / Lot et Garonne region

This area of Aquitaine is well known for its warm sunny summers, stunning countryside, vineyards, chateaux, mediaeval hilltop villages with their busy markets, brocantes and summer fairs and, of course, local specialities of foie gras, magret of duck, prunes, truffles, walnuts and wine.

Romarin is a short drive away from the bastide villages of Issigeac, Villereal, Monpazier, Monflanquin and Beaumont which were built as fortified towns during the12th to 14th centuries, by both the English and French, and are examples of beautifully preserved mediaeval architecture still being used today.

Castillonnes, Lot et Garonne / Defe area

Castillonnes, a 5minute drive away, is a mediaeval, bastide, hilltop town with a weekly market, and offers bars, restaurants, supermarkets, an outdoor swimming pool, tennis courts for hire and a trotting race hippodrome. There is a championship standard golf course within 30 minutes' drive.

For the more adventurous the beautiful river Dordogne offers many opportunities to go canoeing or kayaking or to take a boat trip. The chateaux of Castelnaud, Lanquais, Monbazillac and Milandes are well worth a visit. In the summer months many of the local villages have weekly night markets with food, music and dancing - a truly French experience.
