The summers can be very hot and generally long. Spring and Autumn are favourite seasons with clear, warm days making for perfect sight seeing or house hunting, indeed the area attracts holidaymakers throughout the year. The Perigord Noir is famous for its truffles, walnuts, geese and ducks, culminating in the production of ‘Foie Gras’, for which the region is well known.

The hamlet of St. Rabier with its church, café, restaurant, and grocery shop for local produce, is set in a beautiful valley of the Vezere. We have tennis and basket ball courts, river fishing and walking routes all available nearby. Just 9 miles (14 km) is the picturesque town of Montignac which offers shops, a market, restaurants and canoeing on the river Vezere.

For more serious shopping we are centrally placed for both Brive and Perigueux. Within 10 miles of our door is the impressive village of Hautefort with its historic Chateau , also available nearby are paintball, quad biking and golf. The variety of attractions, both locally and slightly further afield, is immense. From the prehistoric museum at Les Eyzies and cave paintings at the world famous ‘Lascaux,’ to chateaux and bastide towns with their fortified castles, such as Castelnaud and Beynac, the legacy of the Hundred Years War during the middle ages. The stunning ‘Rocamadour’ built into the cliffs on three levels with shops, cafes, the old village and church, an artists delight. The scenery has it all, from the panorama of nut groves and sunflower fields the menacing castles, valleys and the rivers ‘Dordogne’ and ‘Vezere’, all add to the tapestry of the Perigord Noir area.

For the young at heart there is a mini-golf, go-karting, fishing, canoeing and biking. For the more sedate persuits, 'Le Jardin de L'imaginaire', local markets and brocantes at Terrasson, Sarlat, and the Sunday market at the very pretty St. Genies are worth a visit. Hot air balloon rides and boat trips down the Dordogne river are also available in the height of the season.
