The River Dordogne and Championship golf are both with 15 minutes drive of the Chateau. Bergerac and Ste. Emillion are half an hour away. Bordeaux is an hour and 15 minutes drive. The Chateau is surrounded by local wine and food producers who are happy to conduct tastings. There are walks and outdoor activities throughout the surrounding area.
