In open grounds, Maison En Bois is set on the edge of a tiny village with a handful of neighbouring dwellings, close to where the Dordogne River loops and only 5km from the charming village of Trémolat with its Michelin starred restaurant.
In the other direction, potter around the restaurants, shops and weekly market in Laline by the banks of the river, just 7.5km away, or continue further to the handsome town of Bergerac around half an hour by car.
As you explore the Périgord Noir and beyond, discover wonderful markets, traditional restaurants and glorious scenery for walking, horse-riding and cycling. Enjoy picnics by the riverside and come across opportunities to canoe or kayak along the Dordogne and Vézère.

Region
The pace of life in the Dordogne is languid, laid back and positively infectious. Relax in bucolic beauty as you drift along the Dordogne River, or wander among the forests and hillside of the Périgord Natural Park.
The foodie scene too, is a relaxed affair. Take your time over your lazy lunches of local duck, black truffles and goats cheese. If you’re feeling energetic, you can even hunt for them yourself. The wine here is second to none, with infamous grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chenin Blanc all having a huge presence here.
The Dordogne is also brimming with history. Castles and chateaux are scattered throughout the region, among the enchanting medieval villages. History of an altogether more ancient sort can also be explored in the incredible prehistoric cave drawings of Lascaux and Grotte de Rouffignac.
