Location
Although rurally located Lavaud is near to plenty of local attractions, including caves, chateaux, quaint villages and restaurants. With St Jean de Cole only a few minutes drive away this beautiful village has been voted as one of France's prettiest. The magnificent chateau at Jumilhac is well worth a visit along with the Venice of the Perigord - Brantome.
For the more adventurous of you then there is canoeing at Brantome or on the River Dordogne near Le Bugue.
Being just 3 hours drive away to the Massif Central for skiing and 3 hours drive to the coast those of you who wish to venture further afield can easily do so. Bordeaux is just over 2 hours drive away.
With the capital of the Dordogne, Perigueux, being only 30 mins away a visit to the old town is a must. The twice weekly market and vast choice of restaurants will make the trip one to remember.

We were a party of 11. Grandparents, 2 sets of parents, and 5 granchildren aged 9,7,5,5,and 2. Lavaud was a perfecy venue to spend time together. There is a fabulous pool, lots of sunloungers,a lovely farmhouse, with a fabulous kitchen,better equipped than mine,an excellent games room, a very good tennis court, a large table outside with a fabulous view, plent of room for rounders, boules,football,etc.And all a long way from anyone else so noise wasn't a problem. You will want for nothing. We thouroughly recommend a holiday here. |

We booked at the last minute at the end of June 2011 and were offered the Farmhouse. This was lovely: spacious, well equipped and nice rural location yet only 10-15 minutes to the nearest town... more |
