Driving is very easy and even in high season isn't anything like driving in England. The ferry ports of Calais is about 8 hours away and Caen and St. Malo about 6/7 hours.

The closest airports are 1/2 hours away with Bergerac being the closest followed by Limoges, Bordeaux, La Rochelle and Brive.

If you would like to arrive by train or plane for a short walking or cycling break out of season- we are happy to offer a pickup service from the airports or train station - please ask for tariffs. We do recommend a car so you can explore this lovely region.
