Home description
La Croix offers a comfortable base to explore one of the most beautiful parts of the Dordogne. The garden is filled with evening primrose,hollyhocks and buddleia which attract many butterflies, notably swallow tail. The spacious balcony allows ample room to eat al fresco with a commanding view as the sun sets over rolling countryside. Aubeterre one of 'Les beaux villages de France' is only 15 minutes drive away. It holds great historical interest and has its own river beach on the River Dronne. There are many good restaurants within easy reach and Riberac market on a Friday morning is essential!! The accommodation is in two very separate areas, suitable for families and friends, but also can be entirely independant. The farmhouse can accommodate four comfortably and the small gite is ideal for two, with an option of a third on a 'put you up' if required. La Croix is excellent for relaxing 'away from it all' amongst beautiful countryside. An artists paradise!
