Superbly set up for outdoor living, Port Dordogne has a level site of around 5000 sq m (1 acre)  with the main feature being the former tobacco drying barn which has been opened up to provide a large au vent sheltered space with the 10 x 5m pool immediately beside.

As the name suggests, Port Dordogne is right by the river, and the area around is level with plenty of quiet country roads to explore on two or four wheels. 

The attractive town of Trémolat is nearby, its quiet streets line with houses of the local honey coloured stone and the typical Périgourdine rooves. There is a couple of restaurants and a weekly market on Tuesdays. There is also a boulangerie, offering the freshest of bread daily

   

Trémolat also has a watersports centre on the riverside with further bars and restaurants, and there may be activities in which guests may be able to participate. 
A little beyond the town is Le Cingle de Trémolat, a viewpoint over the area and away to the rolling Quercy countryside to the south: On a peaceful day the sounds of the famed Dordogne swans exercising their wings will be heard. 

The whole of the Dordogne and Périgord is dotted with attractive honey colored stone villages with their distinctive Périgourdine rooves, and Port Dordogne is mid way between Bergerac and Sarlat which both have significant charm and lots going on. 
 From Sarlat, the hilltop town of Domme is a visitor attraction, largely for its superb view over the vale of Dordogne and away to the hills of the northern Périgord region. As you travel round you will doubtless find your favourite towns and villages. 

This area of France is a gourmand's paradise, with quality wine production throughout the area, particularly around Bergerac, and a host of other produce is available from local producers at weekly markets. Sarlat hosts an annual Truffle festival during the winter months with days of demonstrations, tasting and more. 

With Port Dordogne offering 'Le Grand Weekend' breaks with a minimum of 2 days, a gastronaut group will surely have a weekend to remember here.
