On the borders of the Lot and Dordogne regions, just north of the beautiful Dordogne river, Villa Andalous is in an ideal location for exploring the best that this region has to offer.
A golf-lovers paradise, an excellent 18-hole course is just a five-minute drive away whilst activity lovers will also appreciate nearby tennis, horse-riding, mountain bike and hiking trails, peaceful walks through nearby forests and the possibility to hire canoes and kayaks in the Dordogne river just a ten-minute drive away. Bikes can be rented on request.
The nearest village, Souillac (6.5km), has a great choice of restaurants, supermarkets and other amenities. Be sure to visit the impressive Abbey Sainte-Marie and even better combine with a trip to the atmospheric market on a Friday morning.
Start by exploring the Dordogne department with its wealth of beautiful villages and towns such as idyllic Domme (35km) high above the Dordogne river with its amazing caves, La Roque Gageac (36km), a perfect picture postcard village backed by steep cliffs and Castelnaud-la-Chapelle (40km) just across the river. Further north, the ‘Plus Beaux Village’ of Saint-Amand-de-Coly (30km) is a wonderful place to visit with the famous Lascaux caves nearby.
Furthermore, Sarlat (26km) is one of the area’s most famous towns with its maze of medieval narrow streets, lovely squares and amazing restaurants plus a famous market on a Saturday morning.
You are also perfectly positioned to visit the topiary gardens at Eyrignac (17km) which opens up on Monday evenings in the summer for picnics and dance or Les Jardins de Marqueyssac in Vézac (36km) set high above the river which also open on Thursday evenings in the summer when you can explore by candlelight.
The Lot department is also easily reached with pretty Gourdon (35km) just over half an hour away. Explore its honey stone coloured houses set beautifully on the hill and lovely warren of little streets. Beautifully preserved Rocamadour (28km) is another amazing place to visit, built on the edge of a cliff with the river at the bottom of the gorge.
Children will love exploring prehistoric caves and parks and historic castles or even a magnificent hot air balloon ride across the stunning region. The more adventurous may enjoy tree-top activities in the forests near Sarlat.
