Located off the main route between Perigueux and Sarlat, La Fargeotte is perfectly located for exploration of the Dordogne. We visited Bergerac, Perigueux, Sarlat, Domme and several of the beautiful villages along the Dordogne between Sarlat and Bergerac and all were within 30-45mins drive. The Parc Naturel is also within easy reach within 1.5hrs. La Fargeotte is a well-equipped gite that will comfortably take 4 adults and 2-3 children. Paul & Jill are great hosts, who promise to be as visible or invisible as you want them to be. Based on price, La Fargeotte is hard to beat for size, amenities and location. I would happily recommend it to others. |
